Hero System! Transported to Another World

Chapter 46: Worlds

Alex smiled and nodded. He proceeded to explain everything that happened the day before and the events that lead him to his current situation. As he explained, Buster and Midnight's expressions started to turn angry. It wasn't only those two, The other workers in the break room also heard the story. They felt sorry for Alex and the other who had to enter the gate.

Alex looked at them and smiled, "I was stupid and naive. I believed in the government over my own life and nearly died because of that. Before that, I had never in my life doubted them. I didn't even hear anything bad, Those who spoke badly were considered to side with the villains, Those who used their powers for crime and thus looked down upon. Something everyone would hate to their bone. So Without realizing it, we all turned into sheep, all by the fears of becoming outcasts of the society, which was all lead by people who wanted to stay in control and justify every single activity they did by saying it was for the good."

Although he smiled, Midnight could see that there was a certain sadness within his eyes. She looked at Alex and put her hand on his shoulder, "It's okay. At least you've come to realize that now. And look at you, You have powers and looking at how you are now. Who knows, You might be able to evolve your powers even further and become one of the most powerful in this country. And if possible in the future, you could return back and teach everyone a lesson. The last part might be very unlikely but still, I am more than sure that you will live a happier life here than you ever did."

Buster Smiled, "Midnight is correct, here in our world I can't say that there aren't shady things going one but we sure as hell won't sit down doing nothing if something wrong happens. Some things are more difficult to handle but we will stand for right."

The other who was listening in to the conversation also nodded in agreement. Buster continued, "That's why I talked about the military during the experiment. The military and the awakened team don't have the same objective at all. We actually could get in a heated debate when it comes to different topics. We've been deemed as unnecessary by them before but we've held on and worked to clear gates and thus, people look up to us. I wanted to say this to clear that no place is perfect. There will always be something like this. We just have to keep on with out beliefs and stay strong."

Alex nodded when he heard Buster, "Thank you I am a lot happier being here than when I was in that place Everything that has happened till now, I'm finally getting something for all the hard work I've put in."

Buster nodded, "You're correct. If you don't mind. I want to know more about your world as well as you Alex. If you don't mind, Can you tell us about your childhood and how your world was back then? Also if your world had ever encountered anything similar to gates before"

Alex nodded, he took a deep breath and looked towards buster, "As long as I could remember, I was an orphan. I don't even remember having parents or a parent figure. I was once taken in an orphanage. But as I got older and still didn't show signs of having any abilities, they just kicked me out and never let me in once. Well, I did have someone close who would give me some form of shelter. A woman who would always give me a warm meal every night. Her son had died in the war and she didn't want to see me suffer. I lived in the streets but she would always provide me clothes and food when I needed it. Once I could start working, I would go anywhere and do as many jobs as I could. My main goal in life was to make people's lives easier even if I didn't have power."

Alex looked down, "I did odd jobs, Massaging people, cleaning houses, and other rooms. Just anything that I could. All of this was only when I was in my teens. I had so much to do. Due to my lack of powers, I would get kicked out of the job in a few days, and at max a few weeks. People who can do more for the same price will always be the number one choice for the job. I couldn't do anything about it. I guess my belief in the heroes grew more and more as I suffered. The more depressed I got, the more I wanted to hold onto some form of belief and the first thing was heroes. They would always save the day. Villains who used their powers for bad would be incapacitated and arrested by the heroes. Huge disasters that could cause very high casualties would be prevented by them. They could save the day for events as big and horrid as that so I had my hope that one day, they could do something small and save a kid's life from poverty."

Alex sighed, "And that's how my life was until yesterday. Living my doing as many jobs as I could get my hands on and keeping that faith. As for my world, We would get creatures that came out of nowhere and attack us but none of them looked close to the reapers we saw here. Not even similar. And for powers, well I never knew. I looked into soo many books about powers but there was nothing. Suddenly, people started to gain amazing powers on their own. It spread like a disease and slowly, everyone started to gain their powers. Everyone except a handful who were as unlucky as me. Most of them even killed themselves because by this time, The world was based on powers. Less power means you had less demanding jobs and thus less money. Now imagine that life but no power at all."

Alex looked up but before he could say a word, there was a loud buzzing sound, followed up by a voice. "Intruder detected"

Alrighty, As I said before no updates for a week due to my own personal circumstances. I hope you all don't mind that. It's something that I can't prevent.

I will do daily updates once I return to a place where I have internet access but until then, bare with me.

Thank you!
