"Weak: Reincarnated to Another World as a Healer"
Chapter 1: The One Who Shouldn't Have Been Chosen

> "In my world, I was nobody. In this one... I might be even less."
— Rael Stroud

Rael Stroud died on a Tuesday.
Not in some epic battle. Not even saving someone.
Just a car accident. A quiet, meaningless end to a quiet, meaningless life.
So when he opened his eyes and found himself lying in the middle of a glowing magic circle — surrounded by robed mages chanting ancient spells — he assumed this was the afterlife.
It wasn't.
"You have been chosen, O hero!" one of the robed figures declared. "You are now in the Kingdom of Valaria. You shall save us from the Demon King!"
Rael sat up, dazed. "Wait… wha—?"
The mages cheered. Fireworks exploded. Trumpets blared.
Until someone checked his stats.

"...A Healer?"
The High Priest blinked. "Are you sure this is the correct summoning?"
A silence filled the chamber. Disbelief. Then disappointment.
"No offense, but—" a knight muttered, "—he looks like a kid who'd faint just holding a sword."
Rael's hands trembled as he looked around. The king frowned. The nobles whispered. Even the other summoned heroes — tall, powerful, glowing with rare magic — looked at him with pity.
"This must be a mistake," one of them, a red-haired warrior, said. "He has no combat value."
The priest stepped forward. "Rael Stroud… unfortunately, your abilities are unsuited for the battlefield. You will be assigned to a support church far from the front lines."
Support church?
He had just been reincarnated into another world — and they were already sending him to the sidelines?
"No." Rael stood. "I don't want to just heal from behind. I want to fight too."
Everyone stared.
"A Healer? Fight?" The crowd broke into laughter. "Even the Goddess didn't bless you with a unique combat skill!"
Rael clenched his fists.
In his old life, he was weak. Ignored. A background character.
But something burned in him now — a second chance.
He wouldn't waste it.

That Night…
In a quiet chamber lit only by moonlight, Rael knelt beside his bed, staring at his glowing status window. A new line had appeared.

Rael whispered, "I'm not useless... not this time."
And somewhere in the distance… something stirred.
