章 87: Chapter 80: Hikaru's Thunder Dragon
As Hikaru searched the entire solar system earlier, he found an interesting planet. It was the same size as his home planet, the Shinobi World, but the most interesting part was that it has a barrier covering the entire planet.
The barrier was extremely tough but he broke it quite easily, 'cause, you know, he's almost a god. He made a hole in the barrier and he went through that before fixing the barrier, so that no gods will know he's here. Well, at least for now.
As he tried sensing the gods in this world, to see how many there are, he only found one Major God and no other gods, not even a single Minor God was here.
Now, this was strange. Because a planet with this many populations is supposed to have many gods, unless that planet is already desolated with no living beings in it. Moreover, it's a goddess.
"Interesting, let's see what's in this world. I guess I won't be returning for a week, hehehe." Hikaru said as he floated down from the sky.
As he descended from the sky, he saw a forest and decided to go there, so that no one would be able to see him.
When he landed in the middle of the forest, he saw a large gate with nothing behind it. There was literally nothing around it, just a huge ass gate in the middle of the forest. It looked quite ancient, so he guessed that this must be a spatial gate.
A spatial gate is a gate that delivers you to a specific location, if actually try to go inside it.
Hikaru was about to check what was inside the door, when he saw the gate open suddenly and a boy, no older than 15, walks out. He wore a dark cloak as his top with nothing under it, and a black pants with many pockets in it. The boy had no other weapons but a great sword attached behind his back with a sheath as giant as the sword. The boy was not that tall, only around 5'9 and he's quite slim but he looked quite cool, so Hikaru took a liking to him, even though he only had an average face, and short black hair.
But there was something strange with this boy, well, first of all, he's covered in blood all over his body. And second, he has a giant ass sword behind his back, what the hell!? Hikaru can understand if it was him holding that sword but for a boy with that stature? The damn sword is almost twice the boy's height!
"Oh…" The boy was quite surprised to see someone after a long time inside the dungeon.
Hikaru just kept his cool and said, "Y-Yo! I'm Hikaru Hiroaki, what's your name?" This is what he thought the most appropriate way to start a conversation. You have to understand, Hikaru isn't very good with talking.
Then, almost instantly after the boy heard his name, he took out his sword behind his back and pointed it at Hikaru, almost touching his face, as he said, "Why do you have a japanese name? Are you one of the summoned heroes? If you are, then the goddess must've something to do with this, right?"
Hikaru was surprised with this kind of hostile attitude towards someone he just met. Seeing that they wouldn't be able to talk if they tried fighting here, Hikaru just flicked the two meters tall great sword and it flew out of the hand of the teenager. The great sword was launched into the barrier of this world after Hikaru flicked it with less than 1% of his physical strength.
"Wha…?" The boy was shocked.
"Ahem, first off, I'm not one of those summoned heroes you're talking about. Second, I have a japanese name because I'm japanese. And third, I don't know jackshit about that goddess. I don't even know why she's the only god in this world!" Hikaru explained.
The boy narrowed his eyes at Hikaru as he said inside his thoughts, 'Can I trust this guy? He's strong, very strong, that's for sure. With a single flick of a finger, he sent my 2 tons greatsword flying! Well, I guess I can trust him for now. If he's this strong, he could've killed me earlier for my insolence against him. I guess he's not one of those extremely arrogant strong people that I know off.'
The boy bowed slightly at Hikaru, as a sign of respect, and said, "My name is Hiroshi Fuji. I'm sorry for my disrespect earlier, I was simply being cautious."
Hikaru waved his hands at him and said, "Nah, don't worry about it. But can you tell me what kind of world this is? You see, I just arrived here and I don't know anything."
Hiroshi shook his head and said, "I'm sorry, I don't know either. Me, my classmates, and some random people were summoned here by the goddess of this world as 'Heroes'. I was disposed of in the lowest part of the most dangerous dungeon in the world. I barely managed to survive and come to the surface."
Hikaru looked confused and asked, "Why were you disposed of? You're pretty strong, from what I can see." What do you mean 'Pretty strong'? He's stronger than all 5 Kages combined!
At that question, Hiroshi's face turned ugly as he explained, "I was disposed of because my Rank as a 'Hero' was simply E-Rank! The rest of the people summoned with me had the Rank of B to S. The goddess treated me as garbage and decided to kill me off by sending me to the lowest part of this dungeon."
'I don't know why I'm opening up to this person. He's the same age as me, yet, he has this respected aura around him. Maybe it's right to trust this person, after all.' Hiroshi said in his thoughts, relieved.
Hikaru thought deeply about this kid's situation before he asked him one simple question, "Hey, want to come with me? I can help you in your journey to defeat the god of this world. What d'ya say?"
Hiroshi was surprised at the sudden question but he simply said, "I'm sorry, but I don't want anyone to get hurt because of me. If I have to, I'll fight the goddess alone."
Hiroshi said it with one of the strongest determination Hikaru ever saw in a person. He can say that his determination is second only to Azumi.
Hiroshi then looked down sadly and said, "And I really want to return to my home, Earth. I want to prove to anyone who has ever wronged me that I'm stronger than them, that I've changed. I'm not the same timid boy from before, I want to prove my worth in front of the world, my home. You can agree with me, right? Hikaru-san?"
It's true that Hikaru misses his family, when at first he didn't care. That hatred towards his family? That was simply a childish thing for him to do. A family is someone who will always love you, even if the world turns their back on you. That's why Hikaru wanted to meet them again, and say one of the words he's been meaning to say to them.
"I'm sorry, for everything"
That's all he wants to say in front of his family, right now.
"Yeah, you're right." Hikaru said, quite sadly.
Hiroshi then turned his back from Hikaru as he went towards the deep forest, alone. But just as he was to run full speed into the forest, he suddenly felt an arm resting behind his neck.
"Even though I agree with you, I still want to insist on traveling with you. Let's go! Hahahaha!" Hikaru yelled while laughing loudly.
Hiroshi was surprised but he still asked, "But there's a possibility that you can get killed, you know?"
Hikaru stared at him for a few moments before he laughed loudly again, "Hahahahaha! Me? Die? I wish! Don't worry, I've already danced with death countless times. You don't have to worry about me dying. Just look ahead and never look back, that's a motto I came up with! Hahahaha!"
Hiroshi, after months of battling death in that dungeon, finally found himself a companion he can trust in. A companion, that is arguably the strongest person in the world right now.
"Well, it's your funeral. Hahahaha!" Hiroshi said as he laughed alongside his new-found friend.
With all the noise they're making, they didn't notice that this forest was filled with monsters. Countless monsters. This is the forest dubbed as "The Forest Of Monsters". This is a home to all dangerous monsters. Ogre Kings, Orc Lords, Goblin Disasters, Elemental Wyverns, and many, many more.
(A few moments later)
And just as the two of them were traveling in the forest, they saw a village full of evolved goblins. Hobgoblins to Goblin Disasters. But the most dangerous one was the Goblin King, who stands above all goblins. He had a throne in the far back of the village, signifying that he's the leader of this goblin village.
(Goblin Slayer: Did you just say… goblins?)
Hikaru didn't know what these types of goblins are but Hiroshi is familiar with all of them. He's even fought with the Goblin Emperor back when he was inside the dungeon. It was a tough fight but he was able to beat them in the end. This should be a piece of cake for him!
As he was about to go and kill all of the goblins for more exp, Hikaru suddenly stopped him.
"Hiroshi, focus on saving the people down below this monster village. I'll kill all of them. There's a great amount of people under this village, around a few hundreds or so. I'm afraid that they're all women, save them all." Hikaru said to Hiroshi.
Hiroshi nodded and trusted Hikaru's decision before he vanished in a burst of speed.
Now, let's how they'll fare well against his thunder dragon.
Even though he's not in the Elemental Nation anymore, meaning that his control over the elements has decreased, he can still use all the elements he's learned to control because he's experienced it. The contracts he signed with the elemental gods in the elemental nation can only be used if he;s in the elemental nation, not in some other world.
The contract only boosts his elemental attribute and his control over them. But even if he doesn't have them, he can still control his elemental magic quite easily.
Now, for the real show!
Hikaru extended his left hand towards the sky and yelled, "Come down, Elemental Magic, Thunder Dragon!" His hand suddenly started crackling with blue thunder as the clouds in the sky made way for a giant eastern dragon to descend!
That's right, Hikaru is controlling the elemental nature of this world with just his magic power!
*ROOOOOOAR!!!!*
The Thunder Dragon roared, shaking everything in sight. The dragon he summoned was as huge as a mountain, making it even more frightening for every creature in sight.
Meanwhile, Hiroshi was just about to unlock the cell where the women and children were kept when the ground shook. He didn't know whether this was Hikaru's doing or not, but the best he can do is use some of his magic power to protect the people down here. He'll leave the fighting to Hikaru. He's stronger than him, after all.
Hikaru stood atop the thunder dragon, which was made entirely of thunder energy. It is a part of nature, a disaster to others but a god's gift to the one controlling it, which is Hikaru.
Hikaru smiled sadistically at the Goblins below him, who are running around and screaming, as he said.
"Thunder Dragon, go."
