Chapter 251: The Hero
"My special identity?"
Upon hearing this, Hachiman was initially a bit puzzled.
What could be special about him? He was just an ordinary high school student, maybe with the added twist of being someone who transmigrated.
Wait, transmigrated?!
Could it be that the heavenly realm knows he's a transmigrant and wants to deal with him?
The thought of this possibility made Hachiman a bit uneasy.
Even though he had become quite formidable in various aspects, it was mainly against ordinary people. Confronting angels, supernatural beings, was an uncertain prospect.
Moreover, even if he could handle beings like Gabriel and Raphiel, if it attracted the attention of more powerful archangels or even God himself, it was something his current small stature couldn't manage.
However, seeing the seemingly non-malicious attitude of Gabriel and Raphiel, he figured he might be overthinking. Regardless, it was better to inquire about what was going on.
"I'm just an ordinary high school student, nothing special." Hachiman feigned ignorance and shrugged.
Gabriel and Raphiel exchanged a glance, and finally, Raphiel took the initiative to explain.
"Let me explain this to Hachiman."
"As for Hachiman believing that Gabriel and I are angels, I think that's already settled."
"I do believe that," Hachiman nodded.
"Well, as angels, when we descend to the mortal realm, we not only have to study for three years among humans but also have the duty to supervise and maintain stability in the mortal world. In case of any special occurrences, we are required to report promptly to the heavenly realm," Raphiel explained.
"I see. But what does this have to do with me? Am I capable of causing instability in the world?" Hachiman asked with a somewhat joking tone.
Raphiel smiled slightly, "Hachiman, don't worry. Just listen to what I have to say."
"As angels, besides being responsible for supervising the stability of the mortal world, we also have another crucial mission."
"That is to guide the hero on the correct path when they appear."
"Hero?" Hachiman raised an eyebrow at the mention of this term.
"Like the heroes in fairy tales?"
"Exactly," Raphiel nodded.
"In fact, it's not just a fairy tale."
"Outside of this world, there are many other worlds, some of which are still in times of war. Various races are in constant conflict, and humans are often the weakest. In these moments, the world gives birth to heroes who can lead their people in rebellion."
"And these individuals are what we call heroes."
"So that's how it is. It's quite surprising that other worlds exist, and there are heroes. I'd really like the chance to witness it."
After hearing Raphiel's words, Hachiman stroked his chin, showing genuine interest.
"But what does this have to do with me?"
"Of course, it has everything to do with you. Based on our observations, Hachiman, you are the hero of this world." Raphiel smiled.
"Huh? I'm the hero of this world?!" Hachiman looked bewildered.
Yes, this time he was genuinely confused. He was just an ordinary transmigrator, and even though he had a small cheat, adding such a strange setting seemed out of place.
"Me? A hero? Are you sure you haven't made a mistake?"
"Previously, we conducted an examination of your body, and the conclusion is that your constitution is five to ten times stronger than an ordinary person. Moreover, your body has a strong affinity for holy light, which perfectly aligns with the descriptions of heroes in heavenly records," Raphiel explained, shaking her head.
"What? You examined my body? When did this happen?"
Upon hearing this, Hachiman crossed his arms, portraying a fearful expression.
Seeing his reaction, even Raphiel couldn't help but have a few black lines on her forehead. She spoke in a somewhat annoyed tone.
"Don't get any weird ideas. We just scanned your body with holy light; we didn't do anything else."
"So your identity should be correct. Although we're also puzzled as to why a normal, everyday world like this would give rise to a hero."
"I see," Hachiman shrugged.
After Raphiel's explanation, he also understood the origin of his "Light Power" module.
"So, you came today to guide me as the so-called hero?"
Angels guiding the hero to save the world – it sounded like a classic and clichéd plot.
However, he found it strange in his heart. He was just in an ordinary world. Was there really anything that needed saving?
Hearing Hachiman's words, Raphiel, who had been smiling, now looked a bit awkward.
"Well... we're not exactly sure how to guide you."
"What?! What do you mean you're not sure how to guide me? Isn't that the mission of you angels?"
Seeing Hachiman's skeptical expression, Raphiel felt a bit embarrassed.
"Because this world is, after all, just an ordinary, everyday world. There's no need for you, Hachiman, to go and save the world."
"The orders from heaven are simply to guide you on the right path, to prevent you from doing evil. After all, a hero has a certain destiny, and if they were to turn to evil, it could affect the stability of this world."
Upon hearing this, Hachiman chuckled and shrugged.
"Well, you can rest assured. With my personality, how could I possibly do anything harmful to the world?"
"Although that's true, since heaven has given us this command, we can't just do nothing. So, let's start by teaching you how to use holy light." Raphiel extended her hand, and a milky-white light slowly emerged in her palm.
"This is the so-called holy light?" Hachiman asked knowingly.
"Yes, this is holy light. Hachiman, you can feel it. As a hero, your body has a strong affinity for holy light, and you can also master its use." Raphiel gestured for him to touch the holy light.
"Alright, I'll give it a try."
Hachiman nodded, reached out his hand, and slowly approached the glowing sphere in the girl's palm.
When he touched the light, his entire palm felt warm, as if soaking in a hot spring.
As the sphere of holy light, upon Hachiman's touch, gradually diminished, as if being absorbed by him. The "Light Power" module in his mental interface experienced a rapid increase in proficiency.
In no time, the holy light completely disappeared, and Hachiman's "Light Power" module had gained over a thousand points of proficiency. With the disappearance of the light, his hand naturally gripped Raphiel's soft palm.
