《I was summoned to be a hero but it was too bothersome, so i declined.》 Chapter 1: Serizawa Sho Hello dear readers like the chapter name I¡¯m obviously named [Serizawa Sho]. Nice to meet you! We will follow my story in this novel so please take your seats and prepare for a good ride hahahaha! Cough cough ¡­ I live in Tokyo in a not so expensive apartment and I attend a normal school, by the way I¡¯m a 17 and I¡¯m a third year in high school , I live an ordinary and peaceful life , nothing extraordinary , well apart from my laziness and good for nothing attitude nothing else i think ¡­ Oh yeah I forgot I¡¯m not human! Yes I¡¯m not human. In fact I¡¯m what you can call a ¡®Nephilim¡¯. Yes I know, what is a Nephilim huh? Simple it¡¯s a mixture between an angel and a devil, my mother was an angel and my father was an arch-devil, you want to ask why I¡¯m on earth then, it¡¯s a longue story but I will explain. My mother was a normal angel but she was a great beauty and she had a pure and kind heart. Several decades ago, in the boundary between hell and heaven a great war happened and my mother was one of the angels that participated, in the past she told me that heaven forced her to since angels and demons are natural enemies, and of course my father also made his appearance in this war. Too many angels and demons perished and my mother was also between life and death at that time ,but my father rescued or captured ¡­ I forgot, anyway after that my father took a liking to her and my mother contrary to expectations fell in love with him and the result was the great me Serizawa Sho! But my birth triggered a great tragedy that befell my parents, at first we lived with my father in peace and happily at that but at my tenth birthday the demons knew of my existence and my life took the worst turn. In the first place a Nephilim is a great taboo because demons and angels are races that are created to be enemies. To begin with the chance of a devil and an angel to give birth to a nephilim is close to 1 in a million and normal demons or angels when joined can¡¯t give birth to a Nephilim but there was an exception and that exception is that when an arch-devil or an arch-angel is one of the two partners and my father coincidently was an arch-devil and a powerful one at that. The word arch attached to the two races make a difference that is like heaven and earth, first an existence like an arch-devil is powerful beyond comprehension a simple move can shatter mountains or even create a giant crater, without even talking about magic power, my father once told me that magic spells that are conjured by arch-devils or arch-angels are to be feared. Yes magic exists, I don¡¯t know why but earth doesn¡¯t have a single spec of magic power flowing in the air or in the earth ,even in living beings, heaven and hell has magic power flowing and all the beings living inside can use it without exception depending on the quantity stored inside thought. Well let¡¯s return to the main story, after the devils learned of my existence surprisingly there was no rejection nor hate but the problem began when the information reached the angels, I don¡¯t know how they came to know of it but I curse the day they learned it, after that all began to crumble, heaven had an a council and an urgent call made all arch-angels reunited to debate of my problem , and they quickly rejected my existence as being an abomination and a great insult to heaven and angels and even insulted my mother and made her a heinous criminal, my gentle and beautiful mother was designed as a criminal how fucking hilarious I thought . Nonetheless , I was deemed to be killed at all costs which led to my mother being captured , I will never forget that day that horrible day where I saw my mother for the last time in my life , father was able to save me but sadly not my mother , he cursed his inability to act and fled carrying me , devils were said to never cry but It was false I saw for the first time my powerful father shedding tears when we learned that my mother was executed the day after she was captured . The aftermath led my father and me to despair, the devils have no problem with me but protecting me was another case, we had to flee from hell and live inside the boundary. At first we still hadn¡¯t digested the fact that my mother was dead but with time we regained our vitality and continued to live with the hope of revenge, so me and my father trained like crazy and I quickly rose in power, father was astonished at the rate of my growth, after five years of rigorous training I was already at the same level of my father. We decided to leave the boundary and inquire at the situation in hell but we never thought to be ambushed by five arch-angels midway. Apparently they have known our whereabouts but they didn¡¯t want to penetrate deeper in the boundary because of the special attribute of darkness magic power that flowed here and there, but they made a base in the case of us appearing somewhere, what crafty and hateful angels I thought. After battling for days with the 5 angels me and my father were finally exhausted and were at death door but something unbelievable happened, a crack in the sky appeared and a powerful wave of crushing pressure came impacting the surroundings and even flattening some trees and rocks, from the crack appeared someone, yes a person appeared, I looked at my father and found him dumbfounded. ¡°M¡­My Lord?¡± My father muttered two words trembling, that person was majestic and carried an indomitable aura. He was wearing a pitch black robe. His long red hair flowed behind his back and his gaze carried death as if only a gaze can end life, my impression seeing him? It was as if a colossal giant was staring at the pitiful ants crawling at his feet. Anyway I was sure he was also a devil because of what father called him. Immediately after his appearance my father kneeled and urged me to also kneel with him which I didn¡¯t oppose. But the angels on the contrary shuddered and froze as if time stopped. Then the red haired man looked at us nodding, after that he swept his gaze at the five miserable arch-angels and spoke. ¡°You five you can scram, I¡¯m in a good mood and I will not kill you, be grateful for that¡± If you discover this narrative on Amazon, be aware that it has been stolen. Please report the violation. Arrogance and undeniable superiority, was the words that I thought of when hearing him but it was well placed since he has the right to be like that since the pressure he is emitting is at the level of monstrosity. The five angels had unwilling gazes and clenched their teeth but something happened that made them despair, one of them was hit by something and had his head separated from his body living a headless corpse standing. ¡°I said scram, what is it with your eyes? You want me to kill you all? Alright I will grant your wish ¡° I was dumfounded having a power comparable to an arch-devil I didn¡¯t even see when the angel was hit or when the man moved. The remaining four angels were terrified, but then a voice reverberated in the air. ¡°Hold on, hold on Mastema why are you killing my subordinates? I choose them carefully ¡° A man wearing a white robe and had short white hair appeared from thin air, contrary to the red haired man he was not emitting the slightest pressure and looked like a gentle old man. ¡°Hmph! Luciel huh? You always come uninvited take your angels and leave ¡° By the conversation I heard the red haired man was named Mastema and the old man was named Luciel. ¡°I¡¯m afraid I can¡¯t do that I need to capture that boy you see¡± ¡°Then I¡¯m afraid I¡¯ll kill you too, what can a measly minor celestial angel do¡± ¡°Well I admit that I can¡¯t win you but Gabriel is heading this way you know ¡° When hearing the name Gabriel the eyes of the red haired man slightly narrowed. ¡°Even if Gabriel comes I¡¯m afraid I can¡¯t hand the boy but I will propose something ¡° ¡°Oh and what would that be?¡± The old white haired man was surprised. ¡°Simple I will exile the boy to earth and his father to another world ¡° This time the look on the white haired old man further changed, I was confused. What is the meaning of this? Exiled? To earth? ¡°Wait a minute Mastema I need to contact Gabriel and clear the situation¡± Mastema nodded. The white haired old man strangely closed his eyes for a few minutes and then opened them suddenly. ¡°Well the higher ups agreed to exile the boy to earth and the father¡­ he was never under our jurisdiction to begin with so do what you want¡° My father breathed a sigh of relief when the white haired old man departed, but the angels remained as if to confirm something. The red haired man then looked at us for the second time. ¡°Rone being my loyal subordinate I¡¯m sorry to have failed you ¡° The red haired man had a look of compassion and yes the name of my father was Rone, and my mother was named Maria. ¡°No my lord, all that happened is not your fault but sadly my lack of power ¡° Father said those words in anguish and self-mockery. ¡°I will let you talk for the last time with your son, consider it my last gift ¡° My father nodded and then turned to look at me , his eyes carried deep sadness and remorse , I was also shocked at that time being separated from my father it was cruel , first my mother and now my father , the only thing that cheered me slightly was the fact that he at least will remain alive . ¡°I¡¯m sorry my son I¡¯m truly sorry, to have allowed your life to be this unfortunate and even depriving you of your mother I can¡¯t even imagine what you feel, but my son you need to be strong and proud you are a Nephilim you inherited my power and your mother¡¯s, I sincerely wish that you live your live freely and forget about revenge ¡° When hearing his words I was terribly sad, sad to the point of shedding tears incessantly, but at that time I knew, I knew that I will be truly alone without the love of my parents. After a while talking with my father, he finally nodded to the red haired man with determination, the red haired man concentrated and moved his hands in strange hand signs, slowly two white circles magical like appeared below our feet, my father then looked at me smiling but the sadness within never disappeared, it was our fate from the start, nothing can be changed now. It was at that time that me Serizawa Sho appeared on earth for the first time I was fifteen at that time, it took me a year to adapt to earth and learn the culture , I appeared in japan specifically in Tokyo, strangely everything was already prepared from the house to the money, and even an identity, luckily my appearance resembled a Japanese from the start due to my mother but my orange hair that I inherited from my father became black , but I had a hunch that it was because there was no magic power on earth because even the hair colors from the other world emanated magic power and black was the standard color . At first I was depressed , well losing one family is not something that can be brushed of easily , but then I always remembered the words of my father and tried to cheer myself , what happened I can¡¯t change it so it¡¯s useless to dwell on it for a long time . But I was surprised at the life on earth, true there was no magic and I lost all my power, it was the goal of the angels in the first place, having no magic equals as no threat and my existence disappeared from hell and heaven. Living on earth was fascinating, there was no magic but there is something called science that enabled the civilization to quickly advance, for example I found the tv and laptop fascinating, I was never bored, and then I learned that there is this thing called school, I was excited and decided to attend, people on earth were also fascinating, I never saw this many people together and observing them was a great hobby for me. I never interacted with them but simply observing them allowed me to learn many things, time passed quickly and I was already 17 years old, but a change occurred I became lazy, after I learned everything there is from history to science ext¡­ I began to feel boredom, and I was accustomed to this life in japan and became a typical Japanese young man, I also feel that the last traces of magic power vanished from my body now I was no different from a regular human. Chapter 2: Serizawa Sho School life Hello readers it¡¯s still me Serizawa Sho! Well you¡¯ve known why now I was on earth right? Pretty depressing huh? The things with my parents, but don¡¯t worry I¡¯m over it. Or not? Yes I never forgot and sometimes the seeds of revenge still sprouts here and there but every time I remember that I¡¯m powerless I stop those thoughts and try to resume my peaceful life on earth, like I said here is very fun, I know for a fact that there is wars in this world as well but compared to the world of angels and devils, this is child play and japan is a non-violence type of country , I was surprised that in the history there was plenty of bloodshed but after the second world war and the two atomic bombs that hit this country it slowly but surely regained its vitality but people changed they were deeply impacted by those two catastrophes and chose another type of life , science and technologies were the trend now . After attending school for a year, I¡¯m now a third year high- schooler, at first I was exited whenever I followed the lessons I would be thrilled and thirsted for knowledge, but quickly I assimilated all there is to know and the lessons became boring, I still go to school but the majority of my time is resting on the rooftop or reading inside the library. The school that I attend is fairly big and spacious it takes me a quarter of an hour by train to reach it, all around the school is beautiful cherry trees, and it was a wonderful spectacle that captivated me whenever spring arrives . Today I¡¯m heading like always to school, inside the train are all sorts of people, elderly, middle aged, young, high schoolers like me ext ¡­ It¡¯s packed I always have a headache when boarding, but I slowly adapted to this sort of crowded areas. Ah that molesting son of a bitch , he is always here and he always molests young girls , I¡¯m surprised that he was never caught , but well I never bothered to stop him I¡¯m too lazy and I certainly would not stand out , my policy is that I will never meddle in anything troublesome , it was a sort of mentality that I acquired by living two full years on earth , I¡¯m shocked at myself , those five years of hard training with my father , they disappeared along with my powers heh ¡­ It¡¯s no good to reminisce. Lately I became interested in light novels and Manga, this is the only thing that never bores me. It¡¯s marvelous! What a fine work! I ¡®m captivated by the drawings and the stories, I always carry books with me, you can say that I¡¯m a reading maniac, and now I¡¯m peacefully reading inside the train. Me:¡°Hehehe¡± Without knowing I was grinning, looking at my left there is a girl standing beside me, she was gazing at me strangely, well I know that kind of stare. It¡¯s a stare of someone disgusted or looking at a creep, well I don¡¯t mind, I¡¯m a person who never bothers with people opinions so this girls thoughts can go and eat shit for all I know. After a few minutes of enthusiastic reading , I hear strange sounds , I try to ignore them and resume my reading , but the sounds became more and more irritating , I look another time at my left and I see something that irritates me even more . That son of a bitch molester is touching that shitty girl beside me, what do I do? Well I did say I will never bother anyone nor meddle but this son of a bitch is interfering with my reading, so I look around me and withdraw a pen from my bag, I may have lost all my magic power but my physical strength alone is more than enough to deal with the humans of this world, besides I leaned many techniques from my father ah the good times. So with speed that the naked human eye can¡¯t react to I pierce the hand of this molester that was touching the bottom of the girl and with the same speed the pen regains its initial position like nothing happened. ¡°Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!¡± A shriek of something close to a pig resounded inside the train attracting the attention of the passengers, all they saw was a short man clutching his right hand tightly and blood flowing on the ground. Hmph! Bothering me when I¡¯m reading, count yourself happy that you were living on earth or you would¡¯ve been dead. After a while the staff on the train came to investigate and hurriedly transported him to treat his injury. The girl was dumbfounded but at the same time relieved , she then turned to look at me , she stared at me for a while then shook her head , it was probably denying the possibility of me helping her , well it is due to some things but you will know later . The train finally arrived at the station and closing my book I walked outside, it takes me another five minutes to reach the gate of the school. I slowly head to my classroom, on the way it was bustling with students here and there, nevertheless I continue to read while walking. Suddenly a voice greets me. ¡°Good morning Serisawa-kun!¡± It was a girl since it was a soft and sweet voice, well I recognized the owner of this voice, it¡¯s a girl from my class, I don¡¯t know why but she always greets me unlike the rest of the students, and I don¡¯t remember speaking to her a single time in the past, but I¡¯m polite so I greet her in return. ¡°Well good morning euh ...¡± ¡°It¡¯s Suzuki Nao, you always forget! ¡° ¡°Ah yes good morning Suzuki-san¡± I never remember names, surely due to my laziness ahahaha! She then smiles at me and walk away hurriedly, strange truly strange. Arriving at my classroom I see that the teacher is still not here so I head silently to my desk and seat comfortably by the window, inside the classroom were other students chatting noisily. ¡°Did you see him what¡¯s with his hair ¡° ¡°Yes I¡¯m surprised the school allows it ¡° ¡°And his glasses, eww ¡° ¡°Well he¡¯s an otaku he is always reading manga ¡° The conversations they have is centered on an individual, remember what I said when the girl in the train shook her head, well they are talking about me, especially my strange appearance. Stolen content alert: this content belongs on Royal Road. Report any occurrences. I have long hair that reaches my shoulders and bangs that cover the upper half of my face, and I wear old fashioned glasses on top of that. So my face is buried behind which mislead people thinking I¡¯m ugly. You now want to ask why I have this appearance. It¡¯s because I¡¯m too handsome! I¡¯m not bragging or anything , it¡¯s the serious dilemma I¡¯m in , being a son of an angel and a devil , I inherited their traits. It resulted in my perfect looks, the first time I walked outside of my house a flood of women constantly assaulted me to the point of me fleeing. It¡¯s sad. Me, an existence like an arch-devil fleeing because of humans, so the only solution was disguising myself. I admit that the long hair thing is because I¡¯m too lazy to go to the hairdresser. Ah my motivation where did you go? Alright, all those things coupled with my reading addiction and taciturn personality resulted in me being looked down on by the students. The only one who always try to talk to me is that girl Suzuki Nao , by the way she is the idol of the school with her exceedingly beautiful looks and near perfect body she attracts all the males and even females admire her . But I never felt moved by her charm , compared to my mother , ah yes I¡¯m not a ¡®mothercon¡¯ rest assured , well compared to the angels she is on the losing side so I¡¯m accustomed to seeing beautiful women. Ignoring the chatter of the students I wait patiently for the lesson to begin. And finally the teacher arrives, she is a woman, also pretty with a mature charm, she is refined and a serious person I don¡¯t dislike this sort of people so I always concentrate in her class. After the teacher appeared all the seats were now occupied and the lesson began, this teacher subject was history a very interesting one for me who loves reading. All four lessons of the morning quickly ended , I never interacted with anyone so I always remain in the classroom and now was Lunch break , like always I eat on the rooftop because I enjoy being alone looking at the sky it helps me relax and think calmly . But suddenly the door of the rooftop opened abruptly and three silhouettes appeared, judging by their clothes they were also students and from the color they were upperclassmen. After looking around all three of these students eyes were locked on me, crap I forgot to erase my presence what a blunder, the only reason no one bothered a weak looking guy like me was because I have learned to always erase my presence so that even If people were near me they would subconsciously overlook my existence but today I made a mistake due to my relaxed state. And of course one of the three smirked upon seeing me, they had all the features of the so called delinquents. The one who smirked slowly approached me with a sinister smile. ¡°Look what we have here, huh what¡¯s with your hair and those glasses so lame hahaha¡± He uttered those words continuing to smile at me, what do I do let them do what they want? Well I will not speak for now, let¡¯s see what they will do. ¡°Hey lame glasses me and my friends are in a pinch so lend us money I know you are kind huh ¡° Money huh well its clich¨¦ I read something like this in one of my manga¡¯s , but what do I do I didn¡¯t take money with me today , I decided to say something . ¡°Well I don¡¯t have money sorry ¡° ¡°hahahaha you don¡¯t have money ? Hey guys he said he doesn¡¯t have money ¡° ¡°hahaahahaha what seriously ?¡± ¡°hahahahahaha hey nerd what are you saying now ¡± The two other goons began to laugh with him, it¡¯s seriously irritating and I was gonna began reading my new acquired novel sigh! ¡°Hey give me your wallet and we will decide if you have money or not ¡° The first delinquent that talked to me had his expression harden and his eyes indicated that he was going do something stupid. ¡°I said sorry I have no money so now I will go now ¡° I slowly stood up and prepared to leave but he stretched his arm grabbing mine. ¡°Hey who said you can go, did I say you can go?¡± Oh man I¡¯m seriously beginning to become angry and a vein popped up on my forehead. ¡°Give us money and we will let you go unscathed¡± I didn¡¯t speak and I slowly grabbed his arm this time it was my turn, my leg then rose, he reacted and was strangely looking at me. ¡°Hey what are you doing?¡± I still didn¡¯t speak and with my leg in the air I delivered a kick at his right side making him float in the air for a few seconds before crashing on the wall with the white of his eyes visible, and then I slowly retracted my leg regaining my initial position. All happened in a flash and the two other delinquents had their jaw hanging and possibly touching the floor. What happened completely stunned them. I then looked at them taking off my glasses meticulously and in a freezing cold voice I said. ¡°You two you will take your friend and forget what happened today understand?¡± They looked at me terrified they, well I was emitting killing intent pressuring them after all , all they were seeing was a devil well technically I¡¯m a half devil hahahaha!!! Cough cough ¡­ The two of them silently nodded trembling. ¡°Well you can go and remember if you say a single word to anyone I will break your arms and legs and even your fingers one by one ¡° Hahahah I¡¯m so cool! If they were trembling at first then now they were barely standing, they nodded more intensely this time. Pop! Suddenly a sound was heard it was like a book falling on the ground, with my sensitive hearing I slowly turned in the direction where the sound came and I froze. There was the school idol Suzuki Nao looking at me shocked. ¡°Se..Serizawa-kun?¡± She was stuttering. Oh man I¡¯m in deep shit now that my face was seen.
