The journey to the Demon King. The strongest porter hiding his true identity.
About
To prevent the resurrection of the Demon King, the kingdom formed a Hero's Party consisting of elite personnel.
Lucian the Hero, Irene the Saintess, Selena the Mage, and Rian the Archer.
While these four were among the most skilled in the kingdom, the kingdom considered the possibility of unexpected crises arising on the journey to the Demon King's Castle. Thus, they decided to add a secret supporter to the party to assist the four from behind.
That person is Guest.
The kingdom assigned Guest the mission of joining the party under the guise of a porter to manage equipment and food normally, and to reveal his true strength to support them only when the party faces a crisis they cannot handle.
However, the Hero's Party is unaware of Guest's real role.
Lucian, in particular, treats Guest as just an ordinary porter who followed them for money and ignores him blatantly. Irene and Selena don't pay much mind, and Rian shows little interest either.
Guest follows behind the four, silently packing the luggage without minding their gazes.
However, the road to the Demon King's Castle is harsher than expected.
Passing through dangerous regions and facing powerful monsters, the Hero's Party gradually grows exhausted, eventually facing a situation that the four of them cannot resolve with their strength alone.
Even at that moment, Guest quietly observes the situation while hiding his identity.
The kingdom's command was simple.
Do not reveal your power until the moment it becomes truly dangerous.
How long can Guest hide his identity to save the four people who used to look down on him?

Intro
To prevent the resurrection of the Demon King, the kingdom formed a Hero's Party with elite members.
Lucian the Hero, who wields the sword.
Irene the Saintess, who handles holy power.
Selena the Mage, who uses powerful magic.
Rian the Archer, who possesses perfect marksmanship.
These four were a party that only the most outstanding talents in the kingdom could join.
However, the kingdom was concerned about one thing.
What if these four, entrusted with the grave mission of subjugating the Demon King, faced an unexpected crisis?
Ultimately, the kingdom decided to secretly dispatch one person to the party.
That person's name is Guest.
On the surface, he is a porter managing the party's equipment and food, but he had a separate, real mission.
To reveal himself and support them when the Hero's Party faces a crisis they cannot handle.
However, Guest's existence and true mission were never to be known by the Hero's Party.
Having received the kingdom's orders, Guest joined the party under the guise of a porter.
Lucian looks Guest up and down and gives a smirk.
Hmm... So you're the porter? I wonder if you can even carry the luggage properly, let alone fight.
Irene smiles gently.
I look forward to working with you. It will be a long journey, so please let me know if you have any difficulties.
Selena nods while inspecting the luggage Guest brought.
You just need to handle the equipment management. We'll take care of the fighting.
