　A village in a racial kingdom.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　There was a young man named Nick, the eldest son of a poor farmer.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　He is 170 cm tall, has short hair, and is in good shape thanks to his work in the fields. He is 15 years old and has never left his village.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Every time he gets into his bed at night, he thinks about the same thing over and over again.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

This world is wrong.

（A good man like me should not end up being a poor farmer's son!　If only I had the chance, I could rise as high as any other species!)

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Nick cursed his birth.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Chances are - for example, if he had been born to a big shopkeeper, he would have made a lot of money doing big business.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　If he had been born the son of some noble family, he would have developed his own domain greatly.

　If he had been given an effective boon (gift).

　If--.

　Every time he lies down on his futon, he thinks about "what if.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Every time he thinks about it, he curses the reality that he was not blessed to be born.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　If only he had been born with more things, he would have been famous and admired in this world.

(And yet, the son of a poor farmer. ......!　It would be a loss to the world to let my talent rot away like this!)

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Under the current circumstances, being the son of a poor farmer, Nick thought, "I can't make use of my talent.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Without thinking, he just lives to move his body, tinker in the fields, take care of his birds, and pay his taxes.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　A dead-end life with no further development.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Nick hated such a life from the bottom of his heart.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　He couldn't stand the dirt between his fingernails, the fact that he couldn't bathe properly in the winter and was covered in grime, and the fact that he was soiled by the droppings of his birds.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　As he got older, he felt more and more that the world was wrong, that he was not the right person to end up in such a small place, and that he could be a great success if only he had the chance.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　That night, he went to sleep hating the world, hating those who were doing well, and hating his own situation.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　When he woke up, he would once again be faced with a reality that was far from his ideal.

(...... Is this a dream?)

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Nick is dreaming.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　No, not exactly a dream.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　He feels as if he is floating, with no feet on the ground.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

(I'm asleep, and I'm sure I'm in a dream world. ......)

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　It is as cozy as a baby returning to its mother's womb.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　I hear a voice speaking to Nick.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

（It's the Goddess.)

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Nick immediately recognizes it.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Just hearing it is comforting, every cell in his body trembles with joy, and he is convinced, without proof, that he can say with certainty, 'It's the Goddess.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　The Goddess speaks to Nick.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　The 'Witch of the Giant Tower' is the Demon King.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　As the hero of the sacred sword, I want you to cooperate with the other heroes and defeat her.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　The witch is in the lowest level of the "Abyss.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　He did not speak to me in words.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Nick understands his mission not with words, but with his soul.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　The meaning of his birth into this world.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　That his life began at this moment.

............"

　In the morning, as usual, I wake up in the dark, before the sun rises.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Usually, I have to get dressed visually in the dark room because there is no light, and then go outside to take care of my bird first.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　But even though there was no light, Nick could look around his room.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　He could see the edge of the bed, one of the knick-knacks, and even the dirt on the wall.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Thanks to this, he immediately noticed something that was not in his room: the holy sword Zed.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Nick takes the "Holy Sword" in his hand.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　It fits in his hand as if it were the beloved sword he has been using since birth.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　He opens the status and checks it.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I was level 10 yesterday, but now I'm level 7000......."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　After just one night's sleep, his level had increased 700-fold.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Thus, his visual night vision has been enhanced, and he can see without difficulty even in a room with no lights.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　It was all as the "Goddess" had told me in my dream.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I was the chosen one after all. ......!

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　A sense of euphoria spreads from my head to my toes.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　The pleasure chemicals are pouring out of my brain so fast that I feel like my brain cells are going to be torn to pieces.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I am the happiest person in the world right now.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　After biting his lips in happiness, he puts his sleeves on the most beautiful garment he currently has.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　He is now going to fulfill his mission according to the goddess's wishes.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　First of all, he must head to the Principality of Six, where the head temple of the Goddess cult is located.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

?　Nick, what's wrong? What's the matter, Nick? You took out the clothes you're going to wear at the harvest festival. You can't work the fields in those.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

What are you doing? Go change your clothes. When you are done with the birds, go and get the eggs. We'll use them for breakfast.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　When I went out into the living room, my parents had already gotten up.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Father tilts his head at the sight of his son Nick, while mother scolds him and proceeds to prepare breakfast.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Apparently, they both mistakenly believe that Nick has slept through the night and put his cleanest clothes up his sleeves.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　The sun has not yet risen, and the only source of light is the light leaking from the cooking stove in the living room, so they have not yet noticed the "Holy Sword Zed" that Nick is holding in his opposite hand.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　He is like an actor on the stage.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Father, mother, I've received a message from the Goddess, and now I'm going on a journey to defeat the Demon King, the "Witch of the Giant Tower". It may be a hard and long journey, but I will surely fulfill my mission with my friends!　Please take care of yourselves, both of you!"

"............"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　In the morning, as I was going to do my usual work in the fields, my only son, my eldest son, started talking about how he was going on a trip because he had been told by the goddess.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　The parents could not react immediately and froze.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Nick, in response to their reaction, interprets it as, "He's so moved by his son's greatness that he can't speak," and walks triumphantly to the front door.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Here he finally notices that his son is clutching a magnificent sword in his opposite hand.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Of course, a poor farmer's house would never have such a fine sword.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　The father grabs Nick's shoulder with a blue face.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

What are you talking about?　Where the hell did you get that sword from?　Did you steal it from the village chief's house?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　There is no way that the village chief's house would have such a magnificent and majestic sword.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　However, since the only place that has it is at the village chief's house, which is the highest level in the village, the father seems to have made that decision.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　The mother follows.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Nick!　Are you still sleepwalking?　Go wash your face with water quickly. And tell me where you stole that sword!　I'm going to go apologize right now!"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

What are you talking about, Dad and Mom?　I was chosen by the Goddess, wasn't I? This 'Holy Sword Zed' is also a gift from the Goddess.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Oh, Dad!

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　As Nick smiles proudly and is in the middle of explaining, his father interrupts him by punching him in the face, but the level 7000 man is undamaged.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Instead, his mother's high-pitched screams are louder and more painful to the ears.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　His father scolds him, his face so red you can see it even in the dark.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

You stupid son of a b*tc*!　What a mess of nonsense!　Just tell me where you stole that sword from!"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

............"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　In direct contrast to his father's fury, Nick became severely cold.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　The happiness he had felt earlier, as if he had been congratulated by the whole world, was replaced by a feeling of discomfort, as if cold water had been poured on his face.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　He felt as if he had literally gone from being so happy that he was soaring to the heavens, to being dropped down to the filth of the earth.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　The drop is so severe that he feels a strong sense of anger toward his parents.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

(I can't believe that instead of being happy that their son was chosen to be a brave man, they don't listen to him, don't understand him, and beat him and yell at him. ...... Are these really the parents who gave birth to me, the brave man?)

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　He turns his cold, icy gaze toward his parents.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Without realizing it, the two of them turned up the heat even more.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

'You wouldn't understand if I didn't tell you, you stupid son of a b*tc*!　Don't you have any shame in playing the hero of the tale at your age!"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Your father is right. I'm really embarrassed already!　Nick is old enough to take over the farm now, you know?　And yet, I can't believe I was chosen by the goddess with a sword I stole from somewhere. ...... If the villagers saw us like this, our mothers would be too embarrassed to walk out in the street. ......

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

............"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Father is furious and clenches his fists to strike further.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Mother wept with sadness and was only concerned about her appearance in the village, in Nick's eyes.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

(Why are these people dragging their feet instead of celebrating their son's departure? ......)

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Nick thinks for a while, and then it gets tedious.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Those who defy the word of the Goddess are not a race.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　They are insignificant, scum of the earth.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

No more."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

What do you mean, "Enough is enough"?　You, what the hell is going on--"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Nick pulled the "Holy Sword Zed" out of its sheath and severed his furious father's head without hesitation.
