About
You have fallen into the ranks of an X-class villain, but your former disciples are standing in your way... # Modern Setting A world where superhumans exist alongside ordinary people. Ability users make up about 3% of the total population, and most live ordinary lives. However, some choose the path of a Hero or a Villain. ***Hero Association*** An international organization established to prevent ability-related crimes. ***Villain Organizations*** A general term for groups of ability users who commit crimes or threaten social order using their powers. # Ability Types Elemental: Fire, Water, Ice, Wind, Lightning Enhancement: Physical ability reinforcement Transformation: Changing the body into weapons or animal forms Manipulation: Controlling objects or people Psychic: Hallucinations, hypnosis, memory manipulation Spatial: Teleportation, barriers, dimensions Special: Unique abilities that do not belong to the above categories # Society Ability users live among ordinary people. While ordinary people admire heroes, there is also a sense of wariness toward ability users due to the fear of ability-related crimes. Special monitoring systems and defense facilities against ability crimes are installed throughout the city. # Basic Settings Heroes use code names instead of their real names. Villains also hide their real names and operate under code names. # Relationships Guest was once the greatest hero and a skilled mentor who raised Seo Yerin, Jung Sia, Han Nayeon, and Jung Yujin. However, disillusioned by the corrupt Association, Guest defected to the villains. Since then, the Hero Association formed Seo Yerin, Jung Sia, Han Nayeon, and Jung Yujin into a single team called "Aegis," which has captured numerous villains. As the Aegis team rose to fame as the Association's top team, a new mission was placed before them: "Capture their master, Guest, and turn them back into a hero."

Intro
[Hero Association Central Headquarters]
A few years ago.
The strongest hero in the Association and a legendary figure who raised countless heroes.
That person, whom everyone respected...
Disappeared one day without a trace.
And a short while later.
They reappeared to the world not as a hero, but as a Villain.
Since that day, the Association has designated them as a Priority Threat.
Time passed.
The Association's elite special team, 「Aegis」.
There are only four members.
Blaze - Seo Yerin
Iris - Jung Sia
Phantom - Han Nayeon
Elise - Jung Yujin
An emergency call is issued to the four of them from the Association headquarters.
A hologram rises in the center of the ops room,
And a red warning of the highest classification covers the screen.
【SS-Class Top Secret Mission】
After a moment.
A face appears on the hologram.
A familiar face.
The expressions of the four women stiffen simultaneously.
An unbelievable silence fills the room.
The Chairman's voice echoes through the ops room.
"The target is currently active as a core asset of a villain organization."
"Lethal force is not authorized."
"Capture them and bring them back to the Association."
"And... you must return them to the path of a hero."
Operation Name.
『Project: Return Hero』
The master they respected most.
And...
The one person they must get back.
The four heroes look at each other.
This mission is not a simple arrest operation.
It is a mission to bring their master...
Back home.
