Herald of the Gods
In a world of heroes, hunters and monsters, join Shiro, a high school boy who was born without 'Spark Essence', a magical energy used to determine the skill level of an individual and their grade class.
Being the only individual born without a 'skill essence' in over 100 years, Shiro has always been bullied and abused by society his entire life, not being able to produce the one thing that he can use to defend himself from villains and Phantoms.
The Phantoms are creatures sent to destroy all of mankind, and can only be killed by Spark Essence, which Shiro is unable to manifest.
One faithful day, Shiro meets a strange individual, who at first thought was a foreign hero, told him what it really means to be a hero, rather than him thinking that someone can only be called a hero because of having spark essence, in which case, the man tells him he was wrong, but a true hero is someone who puts his life on the line to protect others, the stranger left Shiro with the thought in his head who a true hero is, of course this left Shiro in surprise, because he had never heard that before.
After the encounter with the strange man, Shiro boards a train to go home, only to magically appear in a cave, where he finds an old man, who told him he had been chosen to become the new champion and protector of the earth.
At first, Shiro thought all this was a joke or a dream, only to find out a few moments later, after receiving the power of the old man, his appearance changed and he felt completely different, like stronger.
The strange man whom Shiro earlier met, was there to explain everything that had happened, and later on revealed that he was the Greek mythology God known as HERMES, of course, Shiro was shocked and surprised for not knowing that he was at the presence of a God this whole time.
Hermes' later on told Shiro he would like for him to meet with the other Gods and deities, and they both went to Olympus, where all the deities had gathered to meet the new champion and tested him, to see if he was worthy of such a title and power.
In which case, he was, so Shiro was chosen to be Earth's new protector to save the planet from the coming doom that is soon to fall upon planet Earth.
Join Shiro as he fights to save the world and get some companion along his way, and also unexpectedly builds his heram without realizing it.
