This is a quiet and independent mountain village. Not only there are no historic buildings, but also no famous products, so the villagers often go down the mountain to the imperial capital to ask for a living. One day, the curious teenager Andier went to the imperial capital with his father. Unlike a monotonous village, the Imperial Capital is always full of refreshing things.
"Dad waits a minute to go to work. Andier, you play in this square and wait for Dad to come back."
"Okay! Dad, don't forget to buy a gift and come back!"
In this way, after watching his father leave as usual, Ondir looked at the children playing in the square. Every child is still the same, playing the games they usually like to play. Among them, he suddenly saw three people doing actions he hadn't seen before.
"Hi! What are you doing?"
On Dier spoke to them heartily, and the three of them responded cheerfully.
"We are playing a role-playing game. Play as the three people selected by the heavens in the legend."
"What's that? It's so cool! I heard about this game for the first time. Was it a game that was invented recently?"
Ondir was obviously very enthusiastic, and he was completely attracted by the name.
"Yes, someone started playing it just a while ago. The birth of this game is also very strange. Everyone said that one day, suddenly many people came up with this game at the same time. They said that this is called "playing the legend of being called by the heavens." Three of them."
The three of you talked about the situation at the time, and they were unbelievable.
"Yeah, I really envy them! I really want to wake up suddenly, or suddenly think of that kind of idea."
"I don't know how true these words are. Don't think too much, let's play together!"
"Well, that's what I said! Teach me how to play!"
The content of this game is: "Use branches to hold the ceremony of granting legendary power, and after becoming the person chosen by heaven, the first thing that person wants to do is to become the mission of the person called by heaven. "Just playing around like this, Ondir became friends with those little boys. The evening came all of a sudden. After his father came to pick him up, he reluctantly said goodbye to the little boys and returned to the village.
The next day, Ondir went to find two good friends who lived in the same village. Of course, it was to play the three people who were selected by the heavens in the legend.
"The three people selected by the heavens in the legend? I can't tell what they are doing."
Keith, who had a slightly mature personality, responded with a somewhat nonchalant attitude.
"Anyway, it's not a terrible game to beat bad guys, I should be able to play it!"
Monty, who has a slightly weak personality, said so.
"This is not bad, right? Maybe we can really be the three people selected by the heavens in the legend!"
"It's strange that I can be. No way, then I have to start playing quickly, let Ondell get bored early."
In this way, the three of them began to play "playing as the three chosen by heaven." They first planted ten branches on the ground, and then the three of them stood facing each other around those branches. Then they put their hands on top of the branches and chanted: "Legend, wake up quickly." Then they picked up a branch each.
"...Uh, the remaining seven branches will become magic circles, giving us the power of legend, right?"
Monty took a branch in one hand and confirmed to Ondir.
"Yes. Now we are being given legendary power!"
Andier stared at the seven branches earnestly and gestured as if he was gathering strength.
"If you can't play it, don't play it, otherwise this game looks even more fake...Huh?"
After Keith complained to him with a helpless look, the seven branches surrounded by the three people immediately began to fall unnaturally one after another, forming a peculiar pattern. The pattern slowly glowed with white light, became brighter and brighter, and finally formed a beam of light. Undir and they looked up at the beam of light dumbfounded. At this time, a majestic voice came from the sky.
"The people who have gathered again and are called by the heavens. I will give you legendary power that can change your destiny──』
Immediately after the sound disappeared, the three rays of light immediately fell towards the three people who looked up to the sky, and directly hit their bodies. Undir touched his head embarrassedly, and looked up at the sky again. But the sky seems to have calmed down.
"Playing too seriously, did you see hallucinations...?"
"No! There is an uncle's voice saying: "I will give you power" right? We should now have full of strange power, or can manipulate something, anyway, we should have special power!?"
Ondir waved his hands and tried many actions, but nothing special happened at all.
"Give us a little more hint, uncle..."
Ondir murmured like this, and then inadvertently raised his palm to the sky where the sound had just come from. The result-surprisingly, Undir's palm flashed blue and white and sent out an electric shock.
"Yes! There seemed to be thunder in my palm just now! Did you see it? Monti! Hurry up, Keith, raise your hand and have a look!"
After hearing what Undil said, the remaining two also raised their palms. At this time, Monty's palm was blowing strong wind, and Keith's palm was flowing with water.
"Look, we are really three people selected by the heavens...! We can use this power to do something special-yes, let's conquer the world! Since we are so special, we must stand on top of the world! "
Ondir clenched his fists and said excitedly. However, apart from Ondir, the other two people looked lacking in interest.
"What to conquer the world, it's too exaggerated... Once I go to a crowded place, there is nothing wrong with it, how can I conquer the world..."
"You should hide this power and don't spread it around. If you let others know, you will definitely be used to do bad things."
Undir, who was poured cold water by the two, spoke crudely:
"Isn’t it weird that someone selected by the heavens doesn’t do something special? I don’t care about the two of you anymore! I will go alone!"
The two of them seemed to want to say something, but Ondir ignored them and turned and ran away.
"I must conquer the world and prove that I am the one chosen by heaven to show you. First of all, start with the children gathered in the square!"
Early the next morning, Ondir left home without telling his family and headed to the square of the imperial capital. Then he gathered all the children in the square and showed them the power of thunder and lightning.
""Playing the legendary three people selected by the heavens" has come true! Look, this is the power of being a person selected by the heavens!"
"It's amazing! You can manipulate lightning without a power guide!"
The children exclaimed in admiration. For his arrogant and prestigious appearance, Ondir seemed triumphant.
"From now on, I want to conquer the world and let people all over the world know me. How about? Follow me together, everyone!"
After Undir raised his arms, the children happily said that they would go with him.
Next, On Dier took the children and went to the adults in the imperial capital. He boasted of the power of lightning to everyone and repeated the content of the speech just now. However, the adults seem to think this is just a prank by a child, and they don't even look at him. An indignant Ontil raised his palms to the sky several times, and the lightning released from his palms was swallowed by the clouds and turned into countless huge lightning. Luolei suddenly spread throughout the entire imperial capital. One of them made a loud bang and directly hit a guiding light near Undir. The powerful destructive power even knocked the guiding light crooked.
"Look, ordinary people can't do this kind of thing, right?"
The adults finally realized that he was not playing around, so they stopped one by one in front of Undir.
"I am the one chosen by the heavens in the legend, and I will definitely stand on top of the world in the future! Follow me together!"
Andier believed that they, like the children in the square, would praise such a special self in unison. However, an old grandfather took a step forward, and there was no such emotion in his eyes.
"Boy, don't make a joke too much. If you want to destroy things in the city, don't think that everyone will let you off easily. Even if you, a kid, can really manipulate lightning, you have thought that the lightning that fell just now will hit you. What? If someone’s house is burned down, how will you be responsible?”
The words of the old man made the triumphant Undir's heart cold. As soon as the grandfather finished speaking, the several adults who had stood in front of him also lost interest and left. Even the children who surrounded him, after seeing him being reprimanded, no longer had any expectations of him.
"Besides he is very powerful, there is nothing remarkable about him. Besides, the legend says that there will be three people selected by the heavens, but now he is the only one. I think it might be fake."
After the children talked in a low voice, they left Undir's side one after another. Only Ondill remained there.
"I'm not fake! I'm really the one who was chosen by heaven in the legend! So, I should be very powerful...!"
As if running away, Ondir ran towards the sparsely populated alley. After a while, he came to an empty space. At last no one came to blame himself, and Ondir was relieved. However, a man suddenly appeared silently and spoke to him.
"You said that you are one of the three people selected by the heavens in the legend, right. I believe you are real. That's why I will follow you here."
Hearing what he said, Ondir's stiff shoulders finally relaxed.
"Thank you, I almost lost my confidence."
The man squatted down in front of Undir, looked at him straightly, and said to him heartily.
"──Well, but in your case, I think you are just too insignificant, so no one cares about you."
The man's vulgar tone just made Undir feel something wrong, and immediately something touched his nose. He felt a pungent nose, and instantly collapsed and passed out.
"I also said that I was the one who was selected by the heavens in the legend, but I was caught by me because of this simplicity."
After whispering in this way, the man carried Undir into the steering wheel.
After waking up, Undir looked around and found that he seemed to be in the back seat of the guided vehicle. The man in the driver's seat spoke to Ondir in a vulgar tone.
"Oh, are you awake? I have already ordered my companions, if you are noisy, want to escape, or use the strange lightning just now, they will set fire in the village where you live. It's better to follow me obediently ."
"...What are you going to do when you took me captive?"
In order to prevent the other party from discovering that he was afraid, Ondir asked him pretentiously as much as possible.
"Because your palm can emit lightning without relying on a force conductor or a crystal circuit. This is rare. You can sell it anywhere, and there are endless uses."
Man-the kidnapper answered lightly. He talked eloquently without any hesitation. Undear had nothing to do but sat obediently in the back seat of the steering wheel. Neither hand is tied. The mouth is not gagged either. Obviously there are many ways to escape from here, but because of this man's words, he can't move. He suddenly felt that he was really useless.
"Why should I listen to this kidnapper? He can definitely be defeated with the power of lightning. But, what if... someone accidentally killed him? Or did he not get rid of him, and the village was set on fire instead? I can't bear the responsibility..."
When the imperial capital was speaking to the adults, what the old grandfather said still puzzled On Dier's heart.
"Kies is right. If you abuse your power, you will be taken away like this. Moreover, Monty is right, I can't do anything. ...With the power of lightning alone, I still failed to become the legendary person chosen by the heavens..."
After discovering this rare power, Ondir originally thought he was no longer ordinary. However, in the face of the cruel reality, helpless, he was just an ordinary kid.
"It's almost time to leave the empire. You can say goodbye to your hometown, and don't cry for me in the future."
Things are going well, so the trafficker said to him triumphantly. However, Ondir did not react at all. At first the kidnapper thought he was just disheartened and didn't talk. But the silent back seat gradually made him suspicious, so he looked back.
"Hey, if you dare to mess with things, I will put your village in──"
Andier, who was supposed to be in the back seat, was no longer seen. Just when the trafficker was shocked by this, his abdomen suddenly received a strong shock. That's right, Ondir, who crouched on the floor in the back seat and hid, cast lightning power and hit the kidnapper's abdomen hard.
"You kid!"
As the kidnappers had become sluggish, Undier quickly slipped into the driver's seat before being caught by him and pulled the steering wheel heavily. The guided vehicle deviated from the lane and rushed into the dense forest.
"What are you doing!? Are you looking for death!?"
After the kidnappers pulled Undier away from the steering wheel, he quickly turned the steering wheel, avoiding the tree trunk in front of him. Under the reaction force, the kidnapper stepped on the brake when the whole car almost tipped over. The anxious kidnapper held the steering wheel tightly. Taking this opportunity, Undir used the power of lightning to smash the window of the passenger seat and stepped on the window frame.
"Farewell, uncle kidnapper! Thank you for slowing down!"
After Andier finished saying this, he jumped out of the window.
"Maybe I'm just an ordinary kid. There is no way to take responsibility. But... Hugh wants me to do nothing and be kidnapped by you! Even if I can't do anything well, I still do what I can do now! ! 』
Andier jumped out desperately. His body was flying in the air, being slashed by branches and hitting a hard rock-just when he thought this was about to happen. A gust of wind blew the trees down to the sides, blowing straight towards Undir. Just before Undir was about to fall to the ground, his body was hugged by someone, but due to the excessive momentum of the fall, the two of them continued to roll, and then flew out of the cliff together.
The moment his body flew into the air, Ondir found that the man who flew off the cliff with him, his good friend Monty, was desperately reaching out his hand towards him. After Ondir also stretched out his hand, Monty held it tightly. Monty raised the palm of his other hand to the approaching ground, and then slowly landed down by the violent wind in his palm.
"I was about to say that I found the car that took you away. I didn't expect you to jump out of the car... It's too messy!"
Monti patted the mud all over his body, and said with a helpless expression with a smile.
"If you didn't come to save me, I would have died long ago. Thank you. Also, I would be too self-conscious about conquering the world... I'm sorry."
Ondir apologized to him, so Monty also smiled and talked to each other.
"I originally thought that people like me couldn't do anything at all, so I gave up. But, just like you jumping out of a car, the spirit of never giving up has just taught me the importance of believing in myself. "
Just after Monty had finished saying this with a little embarrassment, a "bang" was heard from the direction where the guided vehicle was leaving.
Speaking of the other side of the situation, there was no time for the kidnappers of Andier to leave the forest after re-adjusting their driving directions in order to escape the danger.
"Damn it, then I will contact my comrades and ask them to burn that kid's village."
The kidnapper took out the communication terminal stowed in his jacket and contacted his companions. However, what appeared on the phone was the voice of a little boy that the kidnapper had never heard.
"All your comrades have been arrested. Now you are the only one left, but... I didn't expect you to come here by yourself."
The place where the kidnappers arrived after leaving the forest turned out to be the village where they lived in Ondir. The kidnapper's companion has been arrested by the villagers, and the little boy holding the communication terminal ─ ─ Keith is staring at him.
"What is this!? Why are all idiots!"
The kidnappers stepped on the accelerator arbitrarily and wanted to let the guided vehicle rush into the village. Keith, who was standing directly in front of the guided vehicle, shot Lun Yi with a jet of water from his palm. With a loud bang, the guided vehicle sank down, swaying from side to side and rushing towards the giant tree. Keith quickly released a stream of water toward the soil on the ground, using the mud to ease the momentum of the car, preventing it from hitting the giant tree.
"Although I said to Ondir, you must hide your power and don't use it... However, if you have the ability to help others but don't use it, it is negligent of duty."
In this way, after the helpless kidnapper and his accomplices were arrested, Ondir returned to the village with his friends. The parents hugged Undir tightly, and then gave him a tough meal. However, his expression at this time was much more mature than before.
"...What this parable tells us is-don't be a superficial but empty person. You don't live to use your power arbitrarily. Instead, you must use your power to survive!"
"Yes!"
This is an ordinary academy without any peculiarities. An ordinary teacher who likes to tell fables, Andier, disappeared into the darkness of the imperial capital with two friends after working hours. The peace of the imperial capital is actually guarded by the unknown "three people selected by the heavens in the legend", and the students don’t know about it──
