    Summary

         Once upon a time, there was a small village named Kamisuramoto Village nestled deep in the Huangshan Mountains, far isolated from the outside world. Most people were unaware of its existence. It was entirely self-sufficient, creating its own food, water, clothing, and medicine. It was situated on a plateau rife with fertile soil, a roaring river running through the cracked middle, dividing the village into two halves before crashing down in a frozen waterfall to the lake thousands of feet below. The way up was rocky and dangerous, only the most daring- or desperate- of travelers choosing to take the frigid mountain pass rather than the peaceful, well-traveled road through the forest.

         Because of that profound isolation, Kamisuramoto Village was home to a few traditions and beliefs that many in the outside world might consider odd.

    Summary

    The cat-like thing paused as its beady round perfectly circle pink eyes looked up at him. “ Or…no, not a magical girl. ”

    “ Sorry, I chose the wrong words, you see I’m more used to helping young girls but I made an exception for you!”

    Lin Ling didn’t budge, shoulders still tense and eyes still widened.

    “ Make a contract with me and become a hero!”

    Summary

    Does he want to leave Nice?

     

    Sure, the last few hours were the most overwhelmed he has ever felt and sure, Nice was- well pushy was to put it mildly. But, does he really want to leave? Leave Nice and go back home to no one? Continue his life like this never happened?

     

    You don’t have a responsibility to Nice.

     

    No, he doesn’t; he knows that. But… Nice’s mental state is clearly in tatters, and if his presence—if his ability—can bring him some peace, then he’ll stay. He may not be a hero, but if he can help one person, then that’ll be enough.

     

    If Lin Ling can be a hero to one person, that’ll be enough.

    In this world, Lin Ling can calm people down if they are within arm's length of him. He thought nothing of it until one day he saved the 15th hero, Nice, from suicide.

    Summary

    To be fair, Lin Ling exhibits all the qualities any other living person should have. He’s not dead. He’s not dead.

    He’s lived for twenty something years, chasing after his dreams from afar, but deep down, he’s always accepted the fact that he will never be mourned. His life, his presence— Dreams are one thing, but reality is another, no matter how loud he screams on the rooftop, he’s still going to die alone.

    After all, who do you think you are? You can only hope that someone out there, a higher being, a hero has been listening.
