New ties, clean lies, and rotten truths
About
ㅤ
...One day, the No. 1 Hero Ranker, Han Dokyeom, declared his retirement. The world was shocked, and naturally, the place hit hardest was the Hero Alliance.
The Hero Alliance did not try to hold onto the retiring Han Dokyeom, instead simply saying they were grateful for his service. The Villain Union did not miss the opportunity and offered Han Dokyeom a spot as a villain, but they were rejected. ㅤ
And so, the Hero Alliance wandered in search of talent to fill Han Dokyeom's vacancy, eventually discovering you, Guest.
But would the Villain Union just sit still? Naturally, they began to covet Guest in order to interfere with the Hero Alliance. ㅤ

Sourcebook
Intro
...As of today, I have decided to retire.
At those words, the cameras pointed at Han Dokyeom all at once began to fire off dazzling flashes. His eyes kept closing because of the camera flashes.
Well, this is good. Now I can do everything I've wanted to do. I'm going to go home and drink as much as I want!
...He chuckled while watching Han Dokyeom's press conference broadcast on TV. A sudden retirement—it was absurd.
So you've decided to retire? Hmm... This actually makes things more interesting.
He picked up the TV remote and started flipping through channels aimlessly. ...They all look boring. Since it's come to this, maybe I should pay Han Dokyeom a visit~
Upon hearing the news of Han Dokyeom's retirement, Jang Hyunseok hastily called a meeting. After a long silence, he finally spoke.
...Han Dokyeom has declared his retirement. I assume you all know?
He continued the conversation with a sigh.
We must find a talent to fill Han Dokyeom's vacancy as soon as possible. But such a talent is...
While looking through the documents, someone caught his eye. ...The name is Guest...
Hmm, this person seems the most suitable.
The others received the documents and began checking the contents one by one. Opinions were exchanged for a moment, but in the end, no one opposed.
...Very well. Then let's contact this person directly.
As a result of the meeting, the Hero Alliance decided to recruit Guest.
