In a majestic throne room a group of men gathered infront of an altar.
The altar had a statue of the very same goddess that sent the heroes to this world Beneath it was a stage paved in rich white stone.
Suddenly a flash of lightning bolt erupted from the skies and hitting the center of the altar.
ZHHHHHHHHHHHH*
Dust and electricity blinding everyone in sight. When the dust settled a man with blond hair was seen standing.
The blond man only stared at them with a blank expression.
ZHHHHHHHHH*
ZHHHHHHHHHH*
then multiple lightning came from the skies and landed different spots in the altars stage.
More dust covered the whole altar however 8 glowing pair's of eyes was seen glowing in the thick layer of dust.
The men in white robes were taken a back.
" Such powerful gaze's "
Moments after the dust cleared. standing tall are the eight heroes of aether.
Everyone was in awe and cheered.
" The heroes has arrived! " One of the men in white robe shouted. Which was followed by everyone cheering.
" Now now lets not stress our saviors " a fat man wearing a crown and a red cape said.
Behind him was a skinny old man also wearing a crown and purple cape.
And on his left was a man in his early forties wearing also wearing a unique crown and blue cape.
" Heroes please let us introduce our selfs!
"The fat king said in a cheerful manner.
I am Marcus Mclung the king of Arendore .
The appearance of Marcus was a overwieght white man in his fifties.
He had a thick and long golden beard a chubby and wrinkly face.
And i am Lendon Carther king of Philepia. Followed by the King in blue cape.
Lendons is a skinny man in his late fifties
His skin was crinkly and he looked sickly and weak. But strangely he had a creepy smile while looking at the heroines.
And i am Alastor Froster king of the frozen lands of Glazia .
Alastor's appearance was of a man in his Early forties he had long hair but a masculine body and a huge scar on his left cheek.
It was under our whishes the you were summoned to our world.
A great calamity has fallen before us and you the heroes are our last haven of hope.
" Heroes please introduce yourselfs. " King alastor requested.
The eight looked at each other wondering who should go first.
michael who unconciously became the leader of the group stepped forward and introduced himself to the kings.
I am Michael Flint first of the heroes of aether.
He said imitating the poetic way the kings spoke which earned a light chuckle from the king marcus.
" I like this one " marcus told his fellow kings
Following his lead Anuj. Took a step forward and introduce himself.
I am anuj, he said with a light bow.
After him the others also introduce them selfs.

Amelia Winston Nice to meet you your majesties.
I am Arthur he said with a light bow.
" And you? " Lendon the blue caped king asked the last hero.
" William " saying it in a casual tone.
" Alright! Now everyone is aquanted with each other, i think its time to see what kind of blessings each of you got. "
King mclung said.
Following his words a big metalic spehere was brought to them by the servants.
" Heroes this is called a magic spehere it can identify your talents by just touching it. " The fat king said excitingly"
( I wonder how strong this batch will be ) the fat king thought.
"Hero michael would you mind if you go first?" King Marcus asked. Seemingly interested in Michael.
(He has a decent build unlike the other heroes.) Lendon thought.
" Not at all " michael said walking towards the sphere and placing his hands ontop of it.
The sphere suddenly glowed revealing a Radiant color of green.
" A pure poison affinity! "
" Excellent! "
The kings seemed to be impressed.
" If paired with a good swordsmanship this hero would be a force to be reckon with! " king alastor said with a smile.
" You already thinking of taking this one alastor? " The blue caped king said smirking.
"Hmp!" Alastor responded.
" Pure ? What does that mean? " Michael asked dumbfounded.
" Allow me the explain " the fat king marcus said.
" Talents are labeled by five levels, the lowest being the [ Shallow ] above that is [ Average ] A step above it is what we call prodiges [Deep].
And the talents only heroes posses
[Pure] the highest talent ." King mclung said.
" Pardon me but you said five levels " michael asked.
" Well the lowest is the peasants who cant use magic [ None ] most commoners cant use magic. " King marcus further explained.
" I see " michael said.
" My turn next " The man named Zhou stepped forward and touch the metalic sphere.
His visibly excited to see what gift he recieved.
It began to glow brightly again.
(Please! let it be something powerful! )
Zhou lived a shitty life back on earth he did not finish school due to poverty and was stuck selling exotic food in the streets.
This is his chance to completely turn his life around.
The glowing slowly dissapear and revealed a variant color of red.
" A Pure Fire Affinity " the king marcus said.
The rest of the kings was rather un impressed Fire affinity was really good but its common in heroes.
On the other hand zhou was screaming in excitement and was jumping around the altar like a monkey who stumbbled upon a banana.
" How cheerful " Alastor chuckled finding the scene before him adorable.
" Im up next " Arthur said grabbing Zhou's shoulder stopping his celebration.
He imedieatly got out arthur's way and let him walk towards the metalic spehere.
( This one is rather good looking )
Lendon thought
( This one looks promising )
Marcus thought
( His build is decent just second to Michael ) alastor thought.
Arthur was a succesfull novel writter in
Europe. His novels were one of the most popular in the kingdom building genre.
Aside from writting he also practice martial arts resulting to his fit body.
The three kings had different thoughts about arthur. But those thoughts was set aside when he touched the metalic spehere.
The spehere once again radiantly glowed and revealed sparkling blue element.
( Did i got water ? ) Arthur Nervously thought.
The three kings on the other hand were flabbergasted and had there mouths wide open.
" PURE LIGHTNING AFFINITY! " The three exclaimed in excitement.
( With the right guide and training he can be the strongest hero in history! )
Alastor thought in excitement.
( This is the first time a hero with pure lightning affinity appeared! ) Lendon thought also excited.
" HaHaHa " Marcus could not contain his laughter but not laughter of joy but rather a malicious one.
The king marcus had the awefull expression on his face. That screams
A single word.
" Greed "
In a moment the three kings fantasize about having arthur in they're arsenal
Each one had different plans and approach to nurture arthur will reach his maximum potential and become they're kingdoms greatest weapon.
On the hand arthur stood there with sweat on his forehead still waiting for the fat king to tell him what talent he recieved.
