Chapter 1

My name is Hajime Nagumo and as a result of what happened due to the being’s meddling, my new goal is to return home with those I care about most, and heaven help anyone who tries to get in my way.

I was a rich kid, but humble. I didn’t broadcast my wealth, nor was my family name linked with wealth. I was above average for my grades but far from the top of the class, a combination of some laziness and there were some subjects that just didn’t make sense to me. The only person my age who even knew of my wealth was my girlfriend Kaori, with me being rich not changing how well we got along. Though I grew up with her, as we went through school together, my feelings changed, puberty hit, and I saw her in a different light. A few more years went by, and I continued to hid my feelings. It wasn’t until after I turned 15 that I bucked up the courage to ask her out. I waited until she came over to study and play video games after (like what had been happening for years by this point). I brought her hands to my lips and asked her out as she sat on my bed. She said yes. We had to keep it a secret though. Of the many people in our class, you had the bullies of whom I was a prime target for (just because I wouldn’t hide or otherwise fold quickly), the guy who claimed to be righteous and all about justice (but didn’t do a thing to stop what he saw happen all the time right in front of his face), the mature sister figure (who I also had a crush on), our teacher who meant well (but couldn’t wrangle the trouble makers most of the time), and many other personalities. Most of them wouldn’t understand what me and Kaori shared and would try to split us up if we told them (mainly because they wouldn’t publicly admit that they wanted Kaori for themselves, both the guys and the girls). As we were only 15, we took things slow, with the most that happened before the incident was Kaori sitting on my lap as we both played the same game, my chin on her shoulder. She had gotten good at video games over the years, so on games that would have us playing against each other, I would kiss and nibble her neck as a very effective distraction. It would sometimes be too effective as Kaori would moan as my teeth grazed her pulse point. She would then turn and catch my lips. We would lose ourselves as we kissed, the controllers falling to the wayside as we forgot the game. Our clothes stayed on, my hands on her waist or her shoulders, and the door stayed open to help keep this in place (the big rule from our parents when we told them the next day).

I’m now 16, just needing Friday to come around and I’ll be 17. I’ve been hard at work deciding how to deal with my future, when everything changed. The being’s meddling that I speak of is what changed everything for my whole class. It was a Tuesday and the middle of the school year, nothing out of the ordinary happening. Me and Kaori texted before we got to school (she still wasn’t allowed to spend the night even on a Friday or a Saturday nor had we done more than make out). School was the typical stuff as had been happening for the last few years. Things like dealing with bullies who should never have gotten out of elementary school for their juvenile behavior, and refusal to even start to grow up. Or me having to dodge some of those same bullies trying to trip or otherwise harass me on the way to my classroom. Kaori had my thoughts more so however as she hinted at a surprise for my birthday that we would celebrate on the upcoming Friday, though she explicitly stated that the surprise was NOT her naked on my bed as she had several blushing emojis accompanying her text. The bell was set to ring for lunch any minute now when the whole room lit up in a blue light. I saw a diagram expand along the floor from the center desk to the edges of the room just before the blinding flash. In the next few moments, we were suddenly somewhere else. We all made it through (including our uniforms) to see a good 30 people around us, 10 in priestly robes, and 20 guardsmen.

“Oh, brave warriors from another world, please save us from the wrath of the demons who would destroy us all.” The most prominent of the figures said. He was wearing priest robes, but more shades of blue with symbols that I had no idea what they represented.

Miss Aiko was the first one to speak up. “What the hell are you talking about? This is kidnapping plain and simple. Yet the first words out of your mouth are to demand things of us? My students are children, not adults, and even if they were adults, what gives you the right to demand such. I don’t know where the hell we are, but we all have lives and families back home in Japan, so no thank you, not buying what you are trying to sell us, send us back NOW.” She finishes her brief yet spirited tirade, her hand on her hips and such a look of anger on her face that the one who initially ‘greeted’ us should have been turned to ash on the spot.

“Unfortunately, it is impossible to send you back. It was our god Ehit who brought you all to here to us in our time of need, answering our prayers. It could be months, or it could be years, but if something significant is not done to turn the tide in humanity’s favor, then humanity will perish. You will be given training to find out about your classes and starting skills, and should Ehit be willing, you will be powerful enough to stem or even turn the tide to our favor. Only time will tell if that will be enough to save us.” The priest stopped speaking and him along with the others around us simply turned and gestured to a doorway and we were shuffled out of this hall by several guards gently pushing us forward into another much grander room much further along, one with tables and chairs still being moved into place.

This hall was a lot more gilded than anything I had ever seen before (and I had seen some gaudy scenes in various video games). There was a raised dais with 3 seats upon it, but only one was occupied. This man was old with a Gandalfish long beard while dressed in fancy robes. He looked upon us with not contempt, or happiness, but a flash of calculating before it became a neutral look. Kaori was seated at another table and much further down from me, much to my disappointment. My thoughts remained on her but went in the direction of ‘how do we survive this’. The fact that we were told that a god was the main one to bring us here, made me think ‘Why, what did any of us do to deserve this? If this Ehit is so powerful as to bring us all here, why is he not saving his followers himself’, then my thoughts take a dark turn so quickly I don’t know how it happened with the next thought of ‘If it takes killing Ehit to get home with those I care about, then so be it’. Why that dark thought, well, if they had the ability to bring us here, then by killing them I will have either found a way to return us to my world, gain said ability by killing them, or I will have become so strong that nothing here can harm me or those under my protection. I have to shelve that thought as a very long-term goal. The reason is if it was so easy to kill Ehit, then either someone else would have already done it and/or this nation wouldn’t need ‘teens’ to fight in a war for them. Even as I thought this and continued to think, I paid enough attention to get the cliff notes version from the King of this nation we were summoned to in this world of Tortus, and his kingdom of Heiligh. We would all be guests here at the palace during our stay, with lots of the resources they had accumulated being at our disposal, a library for research, teachers for training, even basic armor and weapons suited for our classes once they were found out. Miss Aiko still tried to argue why it had to be us why not others that were already trained for such things, but Kouki Amanogawa, the self-proclaimed ‘hero and righteous person’ was trying to make the decision for all of us that it was our duty to help people in need.

If it wouldn’t have caused more problems then and there, I would have stood up and decked him hard for trying to force his mentality upon all of us. Instead of physically though, I verbally called him out for it, this is despite the attention that it would bring to me, both wanted and not. I just couldn’t stand him assuming that everyone would follow his lead because he said so. “That is a load of shit Amanogawa. You are not the boss of me or anyone here. No one died and suddenly made you the leader with unanimous approval. That means that you don’t get to make decisions for everyone. While I going to choose to fight regardless of what my class is, it won’t be because of some ‘obligation’ to help people. I choose to fight because at the end of the day or however long we are here, I want to go home to my family even if the most important person to me came here with us.” I almost shouted as I glared at him, shocking almost everyone with my behavior of standing up to someone as most knew me to not have a backbone, though that was intentional as few of them mattered enough for me to care about what miniscule influence they could had on my life. I moved from my seat over to where Kaori was seated. The grin on her face at me choosing now of all times to make our relationship public, to finally shove it in the face of so many was done for many reasons, the most prominent being no regrets. I don’t know how long it will take us to get home, or if we even can get home, or in the worst-case scenario of us dying here. What I do know is that I refuse to hide the truth to make others comfortable or to conform to societal norms any longer. I held and then pulled the hand she held out to me up to pull her up from her seat, plopped myself down on said seat, then gently and most importantly, willingly, pulled her down onto my lap. The so-called ‘king’ of the nation we ended up in tried to call attention back to what would be happening, but it was absolutely drowned out by the collective gasps and yelling of denial from every person in the class. Comments like “Since when was this a thing?” were the most common being shouted, others promised violence against me for taking ‘their’ princess. One of the comments would have had me getting up and knocking the guy out if Kaori wasn’t sitting on me. The commentor was Daisuke Hiyama. He has been one of my lead tormentors for years. His crass comment of “How much are you paying her to go along with this?” almost had him taking a dirt nap, though Miss Aiko putting her hand on Daisuke’s shoulder and trying to get him to behave had no effect even as she tried to reprimand him.

The King finally got tired of being ignored and a wave of something mental flowed across the room, staggering everyone from the unexpected nature of it. “Enough. I see you are all a bit high strung from your summoning. Let us eat then you will get clothing and assigned rooms with training to start in the morning.” He finished in a frustrated tone of voice.

Me and Kaori acted like the young loving couple that we were, though a seat was made vacant next to me so that she was no longer sitting on my lap. We still fed each other pieces of food as most of those around us tried to grill us for information regarding our relationship. The simple answer was it was none of their business.

We got sleep clothes given to us by the servants of the castle and assigned rooms in separate wings based on gender as things started to wind down for the night, though my mind was still very active and going in many a different direction, as despite it being nighttime here, it was only closer to 2 o’clock based on when we were transported from Japan to this world of Tortus. I was still thinking even an hour later when there was a knock at my door. I moved to unlock it and standing there, so very beautiful and showing a lot more skin than she had previously allowed me to see (yes, I had seen her in swimsuits, but they were very conservative one pieces) was Kaori, and she was not alone, for my other crush Shiizuku Yaegashi was with her. Wide straps with gossamer material with enough of a cleavage dip to see past the bottom inside areas of her breasts, with the rest of the material tastefully flowing down her figure, more than hiding the important pieces. I took a gulp and then looked at Shiizuku, whose attire was different but equally as sexy, a light leather bustier that seems to strain to hold her huge tits. Kaori had weaseled out that I had a crush on Shiizuku not even 6 months into our relationship. Of course, as I tried to grovel to my very beautiful girlfriend for forgiveness of my lustful thoughts towards her female best friend, she sent my jaw flying with her comment of “I understand, she is my girl crush and yet I’m jealous of her very buxom figure.” From that point Kaori would tease me, and me her about Shiizuku, both of us laughing. The teasing from Kaori would be so severe that she would give me blue balls on multiple occasions for the voicing of certain imagery she would talk about, like her cleaning my cum off of Shiizuku’s breasts with nothing but her tongue and a smile. Kaori hugged me and kissed me as she had me back pedal into the room. Then I heard the lock on the door be engaged. Kaori took that as a sign to pause. I looked to Shiizuku, who had a full body blush going on, from her face down to her shoulders and even to the edges of her revealed breasts.

“I have been having very interesting talks with Shiizuku over the past few weeks. She knew that I liked you but didn’t have a clue until I flat out told her you weren’t just my crush, but actually my boyfriend. That flummoxed her so badly, some of her incredible composure just slipped away. She was happy for us but also sad. She thought that I was going to hate her when she confessed to me that she had a bit of a crush on you. I blue screened her when I moved and instead of slapping her as she was fully prepared to receive, kissed her very affectionately on the cheek, almost catching the edge of her lips. That culminated in the idea of a great 17th birthday present for my incredible boyfriend. What is better than one girlfriend, and I immediately thought, how about 2 girlfriends.” She says with a grin as she sees me getting whiplash as I look back and forth between them, not believing what is happening. “Also, while we won’t be staying the night, I want there to be few if any regrets for things that we didn’t yet experience. Thus, you are not the only one to ‘step up’. There are so many new things for my patient and caring but protective boyfriend to experience.” Kaori finishes. Here she guides me to the sofa in this big room of mine. She has me sit, my dazed state disappearing. She then guides Shiizuku to sit to my left while she sits to my right. She then guides my arm to wrap around her waist, Shiizuku tentatively copying her on my left. Kaori then leans in. “Kiss her deeply, swab her tonsils, then let hands wander wherever you want them to. I know that I will.” She grins impishly as she turns my head to face Shiizuku, then begins trailing kisses down from my ear to my pulse point. My hand on Shiizuku’s waist slides lower, cupping and gently but firmly squeezing her ass. I move my head forward and meet her lips in a quick but chaste kiss. That turns much deeper as she turns more to face me, her lips open with barely a touch and suddenly I’m wrestling with her tongue, moans streaming past her lips as my hand continues to play with her ass. We pause for a breather. As we do, Kaori moves to sit on my lap, and steals the half breath that Shiizuku had taken as her tongue over runs the meager defenses. I moan at the sight and Kaori moans as she feels my reaction to the kiss. I then move my hand from Kaori’s waist, and push under then up the inside of the shirt part of her nightclothes and moving around to her front to finally touch with my bare hand, her incredible breast. Kaori pauses to moan as I cup and lift her breast, my fingers touching her nipple and sending sparks flying through her body as she squirms on my lap, feeling just how hard I am. “That’s it. Play with my body. Shiizuku, I want to play too.” She moans out and my jaw goes bye bye as with the pull of a strategic string, Shiizuku is now topless, Kaori using her hand to pull the shirt away and toss it to the ground. I’m speechless not only at the sight but normally on a woman with such endowment, there is some sag, but other than a bit of shaking and jiggling nothing falls. Me and Kaori then seem to have the same thought as after another quick kiss, she disengages from Shiizuku’s lips and makes a beeline for the woman’s left nipple, leaving the right in perfect reach for me. Shiizuku’s hands come up to caress our heads as we suck on her nipples, and then I casually if lightly, bite her nipple, setting off a chain reaction as Shiizuku lightly screams as she shudders in place. “That was so hot, she came from just us playing with her nipples.” Kaori says only to moan herself as I both squeeze her nipple and playfight with her over Shiizuku’s left breast. She shudders herself and suddenly my lap is very wet as she moans and shakes through a big orgasm.
