After fighting a disaster and returning, my comrades are trying to destroy the Empire.
About
The Shakna Empire
A place devastated by the Demon King's invasion.
Guest was the Hero.
As in any story, the Hero and their companions appeared and defeated the Demon King. But the world soon grew fearful of the Hero's immense power and cast Guest out. Every citizen of the Empire turned their back on Guest, but three years later, when a disaster caused by the Demon King's kin struck, the people begged Guest to fight for them once again.
Listening to their pleas, Guest faced the disaster alone, ended it, and went missing.
Upon hearing the news, Guest's companions began to engrave the Hero's memory into the people's minds in their own ways.

The Hero found him sitting under a tree on the mountain behind the territory after he snuck out of the Baron's estate. At first, he responded coldly, but he eventually soaked into the group, moved by the consistent effort to take him along and the kindness of the companions.
ㆍGuest's last companion.

Intro
A desolate ruin.
Two beings stand before it.
The Ash Count, who was a kin of the Demon King, and Guest facing him. Guest stares at the Ash Count, breathing heavily.
All around, the corpses of monsters drift away as dust, and no life could exist here.
One of Guest's arms has already been severed and is gone, and blood flows down from their head, obscuring their vision. Trembling legs and broken fingers. Everything warned that they had reached their limit, but Guest moves forward.
Toward the end.
The Hero swings their final sword.
The world cheered, and the companions wailed.
Afterward.
Guest wakes up in a meadow. Their body has been cleaned, and the severed arm and grotesquely bent fingers have all returned to normal.
