Chapter 1
In another world, more problems
What Jacob saw as he opened his eyes were five people in white robes while the one in the middle with the most extra clothing on his robes yelled out "the Summoning worked!". As Jacob tried to assess his situation he looked around calmly and saw three other people as well but he was a little frustrated by how he was so easily fallen into a transportation circle, well fuck Jacob mumbled to himself as he fell into deep thought about how to get out of this situation, while Jacob was still thinking, his summoners were talking to all of them,
"Oh heroes, will you help us in these times of need?" Except that Jacob is not listening to it at all but the other three were.
Now Jacob was trying to listen to his situation as he got out of his deep thinking and started to listen to his summoners. Jacob was thinking if he could understand what they were saying so he tapped one of the other people's shoulders amidst the conversion with the summoners and said
"Hey, can you understand what I'm saying right?" Jacob asked the other person with a dark red shirt
"Yeah I can understand what you're saying, why?" but the other person looked at him weirdly then Jacob told the other person for no reason.
They started to follow the people in robes up a long spiral staircase just as they exited from what looks like a lower cellar room then a tropical breeze like the caribbeans hit them as they got outside of the cellar room. As they kept walking to reach the main gate to a castle, the gates opened up then entered.
As Jacob and the other three followed the people in robes he was wondering what his sister is up to and how the hell what he is going to do when he comes back. He and the group were confronted with two large doors with several guards guarding them. Four of the guards on each side opened the doors, then there were two people sitting on two different thrones. The one on his right was an old man with a white hair and a long white beard with a crown on his head. He was probably the king and the one on his left was a woman with long indigo hair with a fan covering her lower face also with a crown was probably the Queen then. From what Jacob overheard from the summoners is that there are supposed to be princesses and a single prince but they are nowhere to be seen.
"Welcome hero's to Macromalic , my name is King Macromalic the Seventeenth, now state your names heros!" The king shouted, the room was quiet then the first person to speak up was a shy young woman with a blue jacket, dark black pants, small dark brown eyes and with jet black hair.
"Guess I'll go first my name is Kuro Aki, I'm a 17 years old high school student," then the other person next to her was a young upbeat slightly muscular man with a dark red T-shirt with knee ripped jeans, deep blue eyes and light blonde hair
"I'm Conner Smith, a 19 year old high school graduate" next up was a fit, go lucky young woman with a open light sweater with a tank top under with shorts reaching her knees, wide light brown eyes and long brown hair that's in a ponytail
"Allow me to introduce myself my name is Ralphi Iwazaki, I am a 20 year old and an exercise coach also sorry for my clothing choices, your majesty,"
Then there was Jacob. He was the last one then they were waiting all on him, first he took a deep breath then he said, "Jacob Collins, 45 years old serving a military for 10 years" the whole room was quite dumbfounded at Jacob's short introduction, not even a single peep from the king, queen, the other people, the noblemen/women on the side, and even the knights outside the doors. The room was quiet for a couple seconds after Jacobs speech, then someone broke the silence in the room and it was the king
"Well then, it seems like we have all introduced ourselves, now I would like to explain what is going on and why we need you to help us,".
What was happening was that the country of Macromalic had what would be called "The Demon Lord". Jacob and the rest of the other summoned knew about a demon lord from stories they seen and read but the thing is that this one seemed a bit different from the perspective of Jacob and how Jacob perceives it and from it sounds like the demon lord is destroying national cities, other countries for no reason except to just cause chaos. And saying that their country could be a next target for attack.
"Now heroes we've talked about the calamity, now then can the heroes now see their please see your own stats please?" Asked the king. As they were trying to figure out what the king meant Jacob looked around his peripherals and saw nothing swiped down with his right pointy finger nothing, then his left finger nothing, then closed his eyes then thought about the stats… nothing, then Conner said,
"Okay to look at your stats you need to look at your wrist for about 3-ish seconds then they should appear" so then the rest followed what Conner said. He was right they all looked at their stats and they were in shock because this is their first time looking at this, except Jacob he was worried,

His level was sixty-seven which was weird and then Jacob asked,
"Hey what level are you guys?" Then they said
"I'm level one,"
"yeah same here,"
"mhm,"
"For heroes we are kinda low leveled you know," said Raphi
Now Jacob was more confused why was he the only one at level 67 but the rest at level 1 that was confusing then he was interrupted by the king
"Now heroes, you all must be exhausted from all this chatter and talk, so we would like to escort you to your rooms so please be kind to follow the maid please," said the queen.
As they followed the maid to the room Jacob's phone started to ring unexpectedly which startled the maid and the others.
BZZZZT*
BZZZZT*
He picked up his phone with the others watching in confusion on how on earth does that have any service or connection.
"Hello?" Jacob answers
"Hello Jacob, this is Sofia. I'm wondering where you are right now?" Asked his Sister
"Sofia? Well long story short I got Summoned by a country from another world, anyways how did you get my phone anyways?" Asked Jacob
"Well we used the long range transmitter to find Charlie team but then we found a similar signal near then we found out it was you, oddly enough we also found Charlie team as well, FYI Charlie Team is enroute to your location to pick you up ETA 60 mikes, hmph looks like they were on that world with you as well what luck," Sofia replied back
"Wait, wait, wait, wait back it up what you're saying is that while you guys were looking for Charlie team after you guys lost their transmission somehow then stumbled upon my signal and Charlie Team's at almost the exact same time, kinda sketchy to me," he answered back
"Yeah I know it seems very sketchy but I'm serious though, also do you have anything on you right now like a small recon drone, firearm, explosives, or anything at all on you or no?" She asked
"No, I only have my device with me" Jacob replied back "anyways I gotta go see you talk to later" then he hung up before his sister was able to say anything but in complete shock the others were confused but curious about Jacob. As they were entering their rooms Kuro speaks up,
"Hey Jacob what was that about?" She asked politely
"That was nothing of your interest Aki, same with you two as well,"
"Well if it was nothing, then how come you were able to get a signal from all the way over here!" Yelled Conner
"Well then let me ask you guys some questions and answer them honestly, then maybe I'll answer your questions,".
