Reincarnated Hero System

"Hello, Mother.

Father is currently in a state of semi-shock, but he's still capable of coherent thought so you should be fine speaking to him.

I would be taking my leave now."

She ignored the expression of surprise on the woman's face and pulled out a magic-filled stone from her pocket.

"Huh? Semi Shock?"

The woman was initially confused, however, after sensing the magic power in the stone the girl was holding, she snapped out of it and hurriedly spoke.

"Wait, Abby. I came to speak…to you too."

Sadly, the girl crushed the stone and was whisked away by the bountiful spatial magic inside it, disappearing to somewhere else before the woman could finish speaking.

"Siora!

Can you believe it?! Abby actually called me 'Daddy'!"

The woman, Siora, turned her attention towards the Elven Emperor who was acting all giddy on his throne, heaving a sigh of exasperation as she thought.

'I think I'm married to a 700-year-old kid.'

◇ ◇ ◇

Meanwhile, the girl who had casually escaped from her two parents, reappeared in an unknown forest somewhere within the Elven Empire's capital city, cleaning the dust of the used-up magic stone from her palm as she walked towards a nearby park bench and sat down.

She dropped her half-framed glasses on the bench beside her, before closing her eyes and taking deep breaths, listening to the disharmony of animal sounds that reverberated through the air.

The variation of wild noises, brightened up the forest, and almost completely muffled the occasional roar of a large animal trying to scare away predators.

As she sat smack dab in the middle of said forest, she slowly began humming a tune to herself, with a voice that was not too loud, neither was it too low.

Before she realised, dozens of birds and other small animals gathered around her as if seeking comfort in her presence.

However, she suddenly sensed a gaze on her, stopping her humming as all the animals gathered around her all stared at her with confused gazes, as if they were wondering why she stopped.

Her closed eyelids slowly opened up to reveal her set of deep purple pupils, with the golden crest within each one glowing ever so slightly.

She turned her gaze to the skies and smiled before waving at something.

"I guess I have to leave soon, huh? The others should be doing the same about now."

After saying that to no one in particular, she closed her eyes once more and resumed humming in tune with the birds in the distance.

However, her eyes opened once more as all the sounds around her suddenly stopped, as if someone had pressed a pause button on the world around her.

Looking around, she could notice two things; One was that her vision had turned monochrome, and the other was that nothing was in a state of motion, neither the leaves rustling in the winds nor the birds flying in the air.

Everything had stopped exactly where it was the instant before.

It was as if she alone was capable of movement in this frozen world.

A sigh escaped her lips, with a question flowing out right afterwards.

"To what do I owe the pleasure of a personal visit, Lord 'Eternal'?"

The moment she spoke, the only other being who was capable of movement in this frozen world, and the cause of it in the first place, slowly phased into existence on the bench beside her.

It was a young man who looked no more than eighteen years of age, with heterochromatic red and blue eyes, as well as an amused smile on his face as he gazed at her.

"Nothing much.

Just looked over to Artemisia and saw her staring at something so I decided to come to check it out."

The man spoke calmly, his gaze not leaving her as she picked up one of the frozen rabbits on the ground and poked its belly.

"That sounds like the kind of thing you'd do if only you were bored."

"I am. That's why I came over, to see if I can find something that amused me.

But I have to say, that was one weird conversation you had with your father."

"You were watching that long?"

Her attention left the frozen rabbit on her lap as she turned towards the man beside her with a tinge of surprise appearing on her face.

pAn,Da-n0v e1,c,m "I wasn't. I just replayed what had already happened.

'She' was watching though."

As he spoke, he turned his gaze to the sky and coated a finger in an unknown form of energy that the girl could not perceive and poked the air.

There was silence for a few moments as the girl looked on with confusion, which turned to shock right after as a stream of indirect messages visible to her suddenly appeared in front of this being's face.

In just thirty seconds, she saw more indirect messages than she had ever seen in more than a decade, and while the full content of the messages was not visible to her, she could just barely catch the three words that were constant in all of them.

'The goddess 'Artemisia'.'

Right after that, she saw another scene that she wasn't sure she'd ever get to see again, as this heterochromatic-eyed man casually touched the notification boards, dragging all of them together like a stack of cards and shattering them into pieces of light with his bare hands.

He then turned those red and blue eyes to her and spoke.

"You look like you have something to ask me."

As she nodded in affirmation as if on reflex, the man leaned back on the bench and tucked a strand of hair behind her ears as he spoke.

"Ask away. I'm feeling generous today."

Upon hearing his words, her purple eyes widened in surprise ever so slightly, however, she contained that surprise and asked the one question that had been bugging her mind for years.

"What's your goal?"
