76 True Name 2

We all appeared in a large room whose only source of light were the many candles on the floor.

I could feel a familiar energy in the air, Mana. It was similar to the one I already had but not completely. With a simple breath this new form of energy was added to my NE as well, this already makes two energies since arriving in this reality. Demonic power from the flying things and now this universes mana.

The many hooded figures around the summoning circle on the ground just screamed cult and demon summoning, which was actually obvious even without these indications. Can´t think of any reason to summon over two hundred monsters except for shadow organizations trying to destroy or kill someone.

The hooded figures stopped muttering their chants and started talking amongst each other.

''Two hundred unnamed monsters, that should be enough to destroy the town''- Random guy 1

''Even if they fail, as long as they distract the adventurers and the guild long enough for us to steal the artifact from the baron´s treasury''- Random guy 2

''I checked, there are currently no strong adventurer in town. They should buy us at least an hour''- Random guy 3

''Then its settled. You have 10 minutes to prepare and then we will unleash the hoard''- Random guy 1 again

Interestingly while we stood there, none of the monsters showed their previous hostility and simply awaited the orders from the summoners. I could feel something of that kind as well, it was more like a compel than control, but it was too weak for it to do anything to me, in fact so weak that I was sure that any named being can resist it.

Honestly, this whole situation reminded me of many isekai manga´s. I swear, if a teenager with a harem suddenly appears and slaughters everyone I will lose my shit.

Ten minutes later, the now armed hooded guys lead us through the sewers until we arrived under the town center and gave us the order to go up and kill anyone and destroy anything. I wasn´t one to normally follow order but this was one I didn´t let myself get told twice.

I was still playing along because I wasn´t sure if me dancing out of line might make the demon realm decide against revealing my true name and I really wanted it. A bit of following order, not to mentions some that I like, was absolutely acceptable for that.

From what I had learned from these flying things, each time an unnamed was summoned, a part of the summoners mana gets collected in your name. Once the mana among reached a certain level, the demon realm will consider bringing out your true name based on how you perform in summons. It kinda worked like merit points or contribution.

I could actually feel a slight connection with a metaphorical tank, to my disappointment it was barely even filled by 2%. Guess this is to be expected with them summoning so many beings at the same time.

The attack started with a all monsters screaming in happiness due to being given such a nice order. I obviously reduced my strength to not end everything instantly but from what I can see the average humans of this universe are stronger than most superpowered ones I had seen. They were all around Captain America level of strength, so I only weakened myself to Spiderman level.

It was still stronger than the average person but at least that way some trained humans could match me.

I was busy raiding a sweet shop and keeping an eye on my summoners to see if they actually stole something I might want when I heard a commotion from where I knew one of the inns was.

Sure enough, when I looked over I saw a clearly Japanese teen killing any monster in his vicinity using a black katana. Behind him were an elven archer, an expressionless assassin, a busty blond healer and finally a flat chested mage, all girls of course.

I could still smell the scent of sex on them, so we obviously interrupted them by something which would explain the teens anger right now.

While watching him massacre my 'comrades' for a while I noticed a few peculiarities, should actually have expected it from a cliché isekai protagonist, they always get a cheat.

He regularly kept getting stronger the more he killed and I could feel a change in his soul every time he killed someone. He obviously had a system but I wasn´t sure if the change in his soul was just exp or if he had a skill that made him absorb the skills of these he killed.

I wasn´t yet an expert when it came to systems so this got me curious.

The monsters around us started to thin out fast, either by his blade or because of their desire to life, leaving only me, him and his harem behind.

When he saw me he visibly became nervous but I wasn´t sure if he actually could feel power without his systems assistance, because I couldn´t feel anything probe me, if it was because I was absolutely relaxed and unfaced or because his system might have told him something.

He observed me for a good second before I felt something trying to probe me, was this the infamous appraisal? I had it too but never actually used it.

I obviously blocked it which made him even more tense, honestly, I didn´t even know what it would have shown him if I didn´t stop it. I couldn´t imagine anything being capable of understanding, much less explain, my illogical and eldritch like existence, so it might just come back as error messages or possibly even self-destruct.

Despite the obvious signs that I was much more than what I led to believe, the wannabe isekai harem protagonist steeled himself for a hard battle. He wasn´t going to run with his tail between his legs, not when he finally had his dream harem, besides, he didn´t believe he would lose. After all, all isekai protagonists win in the end, even if they struggled and he was one of these protagonists.

A/N- The first real cliché in my book and its not even by our main character. I want to start the next chapter with the Isekai Harem Protagonist´s POV
