I Was Caught Up in a Hero Summoning, but That World Is at Peace

I Was Caught Up in a Hero Summoning, but That World Is at Peace

It all happened so abruptly. After finally grasping my situation, I found myself in an entirely different world. Looking around, I noticed others in the same predicament… Could this possibly be one of those Hero developments? Was there a tyrannical Demon Lord needing extermination, or would I be tossed into the maelstrom of war? Whatever it was, I was afraid. I never wanted to be a Hero. I don’t want to harm another…… Ignore the nonsense I was spouting; there was nothing to fret over. The Demon Lord was slain a thousand years ago, and 800 years had passed since the last war. The nobles didn’t treat us summoned like tr*sh; instead, we were kindly cared for. The Demons have been on good terms with Humans for some time now. Dangers, such as monsters, were being taken care of by the Guild and the Order of Knights. What’s more surprising is the fact that I wasn’t even a hero! Instead, I was unintentionally summoned!

For my limited stay here, I will live this world to its fullest; going on a cultural exchange, sightseeing, then, after experiencing the festival that is only held once every ten years, …… I shall safely return home. However, despite my lust for a peaceful last year before returning, this planet’s heavyweights have begun amassing around me, and……

My book is slow in many aspects and might be boring for others. It is very slow compared to its counterparts. May you have patience for them, things will probably start picking up its pace in further chapters. In addition to that I use private settings on this book, meaning I don't follow the norm and just do what I deem appropriate. So please understand why it is not as thrilling or exciting as others, my MC is old and generally aloof towards things that don't matter to her. Feel free to comment your opinions in the comment section or the review section. Though I hope there is not foul or discriminatory remarks on them. I accept constructive criticism, they are helpful in writing. Just don't mention much about grammar, I am not very skilled in that aspect. And another thing, please excuse some wrong pronounce used time to time, there are just somethings that cannot be detected during proofreading and only on the actual publishing. I don't have someone who can spot those for me before posting my chapters. Edit 4/23/21 Things finally got caught up at the current chapter I wrote this edit. Showing a hint of romance(though how it will develop is a little up to the air as this is not on Leila's mind at all) and the turning point of the for everyone in the story. I admit I had a hard time controlling the plot since I was use to making short stories. But I think I finally got the handle of it a little.
