Lives With Incubus Characteristics

Episode 1. I am not a hero.(1)

Chapter 1. I am not a warrior.(1)

The moment I opened my eyes, what I immediately saw was the splendid interior of the magnificent castle. The arched building structure and beautifully patterned pillars glistened beautifully in the sunlight.

“Big. Waited a long time Hero Woman.”

The old woman sitting on the highest chair in front of her eyes said as if the emperor had been waiting. Sitting on either side of her were the prince and what looked like a princess.

All three of them had beautiful blonde hair and white eyes. I was a little fed up with the appearance of the typical imperial family. The prince was smiling with a slight blush, while the princess was looking down at her with a cold gaze.

I turned sideways and saw the girl with me. She and I looked at the situation with her mouth shut. In fact, there was nothing more I could do.

“… ….”

I closed my eyes tightly. How did it come to this situation? I held my head in the palm of my hand and tried to recall my memories, but the more I thought about it, the more it made no sense.

To be honest, there was no special occasion. I woke up in the morning and was on my way to school as usual, and I sat in an empty seat on the subway.

However, the body of the girl sitting in the seat next to her suddenly started to glow. Naturally, she started screaming at her. She moved to another world along with me who was next to her.

In other words, the ‘hero’ the old Empress spoke of is not me.

“Hey….”

The girl smiled awkwardly and raised one of her hands. From what she does, she seems calmer than me. Is she different from me who came along after all?

“A warrior? What does that mean….”

The old woman emperor nodded her head, not even embarrassed. At the same time, a loyal-looking lady-in-waiting walked up to us and she began to explain.

“Sorry for the late introduction. Hero, in this world, the survival of mankind is threatened by the devil. Therefore, we summoned the hero through a ceremony like this.”

I let out a small sigh. Isn’t it a very typical fantasy story? It’s a royal road story, but I know that I’m not the main character.

A story in which a modern male protagonist goes to another world to defeat the demon king and protect the world, or perhaps marries a kingdom princess and stays in this world.

But the main character will be the girl next to me. The first thing I saw when I glanced at it was long, straight black hair like mine.

“So, hero, please. Please save this ‘Aritina Empire’. The imperial family will spare no support for you. Coke. Coke.”

“Your Majesty, are you all right!! Call the priest immediately. Hurry!!”

When the old woman emperor coughed, the people around her panicked. However, she hurriedly waved her hand and urged them on with a firm, dignified voice.

“Jim is fine. Come on.”

At the words of the empress, two robed wizards approached us with orbs the size of fists. Then he carefully asked for his name.

“Ah…. My name is Inna Yoo.”

Embarrassed, she replied in a brighter voice than expected. When I saw her, I hated her a little bit.

“My name is Sunghyun Lee. But to suddenly summon and ask to save the world….”

Isn’t that a bit off?

Because of the atmosphere, I swallowed the words behind me. The wizard held out the orb he was holding to us and gave instructions. I can’t get rid of the shameless feeling of something.

“Take your hand.”

I didn’t know it because of the robe, but it was a woman’s voice. But does that mean you know what it is and carelessly touch it?

“As expected, the reaction is cute because he is a young man. Rest assured, this is just a magical tool that can measure properties and strength.”

After a little hesitation, the other wizard smiled and explained. The first thing I heard was strange, but it was fortunate that it was a simple measuring device.

Yoo In-na’s arm stretched out and headed for her orb. And the bright light shines through.

“That’s right. This person is the hero!!”

The servants under the Empress clap and cheer. Yuin I am also looking around her with her mouth wide open.

“In that case, the next man.”

The huge orb the wizard was holding headed towards me. I also moved my trembling hand in that direction.

“Wait a minute. Hasn’t the hero been decided already?!”

“That’s right. There’s no way a man could be a hero in the first place!!”

I froze at their words without even realizing it. I barely managed to calm the corners of my mouth that were about to burst into laughter.

Come to think of it, most of the voices I heard were female voices. The emperor of the empire is also a woman, and most of the subjects are also women.

Of course, there are also men in the middle. But it was just those who looked like attendants. It was possible to surmise that the overwhelming majority of the genders who obtained government posts were women.

“Stop. Anyway, let’s test it first. It is good that the burden is sure.”

At the Queen’s words, the surroundings quickly became quiet. I hurriedly put my hand on the marble.

“… ….”

But nothing happened. I thought everyone expected it. A strange silence ensued. Following the wizard’s words, I had no choice but to accept the reality.

“This person has no Traits Per se. Maybe it’s because I’m from another world. Interest is not a warrior. It seems I was summoned incorrectly.”

In an instant, the surroundings became quiet at her firm words. For some reason, it was difficult for her to raise her head in shame.

“I knew that. What a man After all, men only need to marry well. Isn’t that right?!”

“Even so, humans would have some Characteristics. Don’t even have that No matter how foreigner you are. Tsk. I feel sorry for you.”

I am being ridiculed and sympathized with even though I did nothing wrong. Afterwards, the finger-pointing and buzzing toward me could only be stopped when the word ‘silence’ came out of the princess’s mouth.

⁕⁕⁕

“Have a meal. Seonghyun.”

An attendant in a neat suit handed me a tray of food. Looking around the room, I opened my mouth to him.

Yoo In-na and I were assigned a suitable place to live. No wonder she would have been given a better bedroom. Because he’s a warrior.

“Hey, Yoo In-na… ?”

The middle of the attendant’s forehead twitched slightly. The gaze looking at me is not as good as it is. After all, I am a victim.

Is it because of the name of the hero who will save them? But should I even bother with that? I’m not even from here.

“The hero’s meeting is not over yet.”

Unlike me, Inna Yoo started to talk more with them. As a man with nothing special to do, I had no choice but to leave.

“I hope you quickly accept my request to return to the original world.”

After sighing, I took a scoop of the soup on the tray and swallowed it. She took a small piece of hard bread and dipped it in the soup.

First of all, it is most important to have a conversation with Yoo In-na. Anyway, isn’t it because of her that I came to this world? I can’t blame it entirely, but there were some.

“… Excuse me”

Drreuk-!!

The attendant closed the door without hearing it and went out. It was disrespectful to shut it down while people were talking. In a way, I am a guest.

Knock-knock!!

I put down the spoon and opened the door. Then, black hair and eyes like mine. I saw Yoo In-na, who has a pale skin unique to Koreans.

Her eyes drooped cutely like a puppy statue, and she was breathing heavily as if she had come running. I hurriedly handed over the glass of water on the table.

“Uh. Are you okay? Therefore….”

“Thank you. Huh Eok. A meeting, heck. It just ended.”

I had her come into her room. Seeing my room, Yoo In-na frowned slightly and muttered.

“This is too much. The rooms are so different. It’s not discriminatory.”

“At this level, it’s still good.”

It was true. The furniture, properly sized and properly filled, was very good. Nevertheless, looking at Yoo In-na’s reaction, I wonder if there is a big difference. Actually, none of that matters.

I looked at her bright eyes, inviting me to tell her the contents of the meeting. What I’m curious about is going back to the original world and meeting.

But Yuin didn’t open her mouth and stared at me in silence. Before I could say anything, her back was bent 90 degrees.

“First of all, I’m sorry. To come to this strange world because of me….”

“Wait a minute. It’s not your fault. They were the ones who summoned us.”

Yoo In I felt very sorry for her, and her eyes were red. Admit it honestly. She is also her victim.

“But, in the end, you got caught up in it because of me. You’re sitting next to me Hearing such insulting words….”

There was sincerity in the voice she uttered. Yoo In-na said she was sincerely sorry for me and apologized. But now you have to think realistically.

“The biggest problem is that I am useless in subjugating the demon lord. The characteristics that everyone has, I don’t even have.”

I felt strange when I said that I was useless. It’s an uncomfortable fact, but I had to accept it. Yoo In-na, who pursed her lips, eventually blurted out her words. Seeing her not denying it made her feel bitter.

“Could you tell me the details of the meeting?”

“Ah. Yes. Of course. I even recorded it just in case you didn’t know.”

As I read her neatly written Korean, I heard her rough explanation. Her kind attitude made her humanly likable.

“… Shall we say hello first? I am Lee Seong-hyun. I am twenty-three years old.”

“Ah! I am Yoo In-na. I am twenty years old.”

In the end, the only person I could rely on was a fellow Korean, so I decided to talk comfortably. As she flopped down on the bed, her hard matrix hurt her butt a little.

“Seonghyun oppa, don’t worry too much. I heard that if you defeat the demon king, you can return to the original world.”

Yoo In-na, who was sitting next to me, spoke to her as if to comfort her. Her words are easy, but the future that unfolds is bleak.

To sum up what she said, she used up all of her stored energy when she ‘summoned’ us. That’s why the only way to go back is to store the energy that erupts when the ‘Demon King’ collapses.

“Ha ha.”

That was worse. To subdue the demon lord? This job was quite arduous and difficult, but it was something that could take years.

“Why is the imperial family so selfish? Take responsibility Not only me, who has nothing to do with you, but you also have no obligation to subdue the demon lord.”

“Brother is right. Calm down for a bit. If I finish the subjugation with my other colleagues. I’ll make sure to go back then.”

Yoo In-na nodded with a determined expression. Suddenly, her attitude was a little suspicious.

“How are you so calm? Aren’t you worried about your family and friends?”

Is it simple? Or have I been swept away by the reaction of others praising me? I mean, it’s because I’m young.

“I am a warrior. I don’t know if it’s because she’s blessed by the goddess, but her body itself is different. Not easily swayed by emotions. I mean physically. Even talent. And I don’t really want to go home.”

For a moment, Yoo In-na’s expression darkened. Well, from her point of view, rather than worrying about making a living in Korea, it would be better for her to become a hero and enjoy a movie of wealth and honor.

“Goddess protection?”

That was her ability. Indeed, it is a skill name that suits the profession of a warrior.

“Brother, do you like web novels or webtoons?”

“… Uh. Just plain? I only see it occasionally.”

At my question, Yoo In-na smiled sinisterly. Before asking, she uttered a rather embarrassing word.

“Status window.”

She looked at me triumphantly. I don’t know what to say to me.

“Uh. Brother, can’t you see this? Ah. I wanted to show you. It is invisible to others.”

Yoo In-na muttered regretfully. I know roughly what you mean.

“It’s amazing. When you say that, something feels real. Then, since you are the chosen hero, don’t you also have a ‘cheat key’? Then I think we can quickly subdue the demon lord and go home.”

“Hmm? Ah. Of course. Of course. Brother, trust me I will definitely send you home.”

“Yes. Of course. I got involved because of you.”

“Eh? But I’m in the same situation. Anyway, you look a little bit handsome because you smile.”

At her words, she groped her hand and checked her face. The corners of her mouth were up. Still, the anxiety was relieved a little, perhaps because I had a conversation with people from the same country.

It was the first laugh I made after coming to this world. I said while facing Yoo In-na.

“… That’s Inna. Thanks.”

“Wow. You call me by my name for the first time. Oh right. I will start training tomorrow.”

I tilted my head. He looked at her forearm and asked. With those thin arms?

“Training?”

“Yes. They said that after training for a while, he will leave with his colleagues. There are also elves. Eat friends Is this how I become a hero? He’s a complete hero. Right?!”

Yoo In-na’s expression brightened as if she was expecting her. Perhaps it was to express her uneasy feelings more brightly on purpose. So I don’t worry

“Can I train with you? If I go with you when you leave, I can be of some help. Huh?”

When will the subjugation take place? I’m sorry for thinking this way, but she has the power of being a hero. She might be enjoying the trip while partly postponing the subjugation.

Perhaps, after defeating the demon king, you can go back to the present day alone. I think it will be reassuring to watch her from the side. Wouldn’t she be able to carry her luggage at least and follow her around?

“Ah…. That is.”

Yoo In-na’s expression slightly distorted. She wonders if this is a request that is too difficult for her.

“Actually, there is a problem. Oppa, this world is different from the one we used to live in. Perhaps the gender perspective has changed. The man says it’s quite dangerous outside the city. So….”

The more she listened to her, the more she worried about how to make her expression. I squeezed the blanket that I could feel with my palm.
