Now with her life on the line will she struggles to survive in a world that is crueller than she could have ever thought.

"I am Lyn Reith, currently the Hero of the Shield. My job is to prevent my companions from getting hurt as well as bringing out their full potential. No matter who gets in the way, you will not stop me from performing my duty"

Arthur Sigurdsön, a man born from a German mother and an Icelandic father, had moved to Japan when he was only 15. Now a 29 year old man, he finds himself lying in a pool of his own blood. However, a spirit calls for him, an Executioner for the wicked. For as they say; And where there is offense, let the great axe fall

The Year is 1969 – The World has been locked in a Cold War between the League of Liberty, The Third Reich, and The Empire of Japan. A COI Special Agent, codenamed "The Fox", was tasked to investigate a hidden artifact in the Reich's possession, which could send "Waves of Calamity" upon their enemies. But Fate showed her hand, and he finds himself stranded in a strange new world. OC

Your kindness will be the wings that set you free... It had hardly been two months since Welt uttered those words to her, yet it felt like a lifetime to her, and that lifetime had been what it took for her to finally understand the true meaning behind them.

Who am I? Where do I belong? Haunted by dreams of another person's life, a young man (re)shoulders an ancient duty as he faces the truth of how he came to be in this world. On the cusp of an apocalypse, adrift amidst uncaring kingdoms, he must raise the fortitude to face the demons of the present—and his pasts.

What if Naofumi, Motoyasu, Itsuki, and Ren were all freinds before the summoning? You get a group of heros, declared as fugitives and criminals, on the run from people they were supposed to protect. With little allies, many enamies, and new circumstances to adapt to, they will have to stick together to find a way out of this mess. All before it's to late for them to turn back.

[Rewrite] Fitoria's Hero asks her to make sure the four Heroes work together or kill them. Many years later and now it is Naofumi's turn as the Shield Hero, his Wrath Shield being his strongest weapon. But when a mysterious girl appears in a Wave of Catastrophe, things start going weird, especially with his Wrath. Who is she and how is she connected to Naofumi and his shield?

[REWRITE] [Prequel to Shadow of the Shield] With new Waves of Catastrophe comes a time for new Cardinal Heroes. Once all four heroes are summoned, the world can be protected once more. When these heroes meet for the first time it is obvious that one of them is different from the others. Will this be a blessing or a curse for the world that they are summoned to protect?

Reborn with wishes after dying. I get to prepare for this new body's original world summoning after being transmigrated into a baby Naofumi Iwatani.

Naofumi thought he already had his work cut out for him navigating this new world with Malty's false accusations hanging over his head. Still, he thinks he's doing pretty well for himself, even taking his ruined reputation into account. Too bad there's always a chance for things to get worse.

Two former childhood friends meet up again in High School. Ren's anxious as hell, and Wyndia wants nothing to do with him. The pain of the past runs deep. Yet, a chance encounter with each other's avatars online could possibly be the very thing the two needed to overcome their challenges and grow close again in ways only anonymity in a VR online game could offer.

We see that Naofumi is generally fine with slavery and I wanted a fic that addresses that. He'll be forming closer connections to Beloukas the slaver and buying more people than just Raphtalia.

No matter how much she tries, she can't escape her fears. The memories and feelings that keep flashing through her mind shouldn't exist. Malty S Melromarc never wanted anything to do with the four heroes, much less her father's schemes. But knowing what comes next, she knows she'll have to fight. An alternate universe where Mein has the chance to be more than just the villain.

Tsugumasa Senju, a friend from Naofumi's school days, was accidentally transported to a new world with him as the fifth person to be summoned among the heroes. He is here to stop the waves and keep his friend safe.

Four dudes are summoned as heroes for a fantasy world. Hilarity ensues.

One question was all it takes to begin a divergent path as the Shield Hero takes his first steps onto a path to bitter damnation; his own, and potentially the new world he had been summoned to protect.

Along with the four legendary heroes, there were two more figures. Both destined to one day fight one another to determine the fate of the world. Follow the Divine Paladin and the Beggar as they fight alongside the wronged shield hero. In time will the shield hero stop them from their destiny or allow them to do as destiny wishes? Rated M for foul language, gore, and smut later on.

A simple apothecary and part-time adventurer's life turns upside down when the Waves of Destruction struck, and his friends are taken away by the knights that promised them protection.

Naofumi Iwatani was a natural hero; the Spirit of the Shield knew that too well, scratch that, it was prideful about it. Before being a Cardinal hero, he had already earned the title in another world. Instead of returning to his world, he appears in Merlomarc, asking him to be a hero once again. It's a shame because he has no other choice. Beta by Milarqui

Once a nobody, always a nobody, or so people always told Kenji. That held true even when he was sent to a new world and he got the chance to start over fresh. Will he be able to prove to these people that he is worth something? (Check first chapter for tags.) ON HIATUS

Alex Smith a fan of Shield Hero and Re:Zero suddenly finds himself in a new world with powers he never imagined he would have. Eventual Smut (Probably). Also The power is not Return By Death.

Thrown into a brand new world sounds like a dream, right? Not for Flynn Blackwood, who is summoned only to have his Vassal Axe stolen very shortly after. With only a day's worth of experience (and no longer able to speak the local language), everything is an adventure. A world-ending threat? Hell, I can barely pay for dinner!

Raphtalia and Naofumi work on their new life within the village, work to be done and a new beginning. But Raphtalia can't focus on all that alone being conflicted with her feelings for her Master Naofumi. Fluff story, whatever, also anime based so there may be stuff i don't know about the characters, don't spoil me!

There are many kinds of heroes throughout history, and even in today's modern world. Some heroes did it for fame, for honor, for love, for greed, for power, and for duty. But not us. For we are the unsung heroes. For we are the ones who cross the line for the many, can find salvation. For it is our duty to protect the people from invaders and, at times, themselves.
