About

In this world, there existed six legendary gems that dwelled within the bodies of chosen individuals. They were known as the Hexa Anima. The Hero's Ignis (Crimson Flame), The Sage's Azuris (Azure Reason), The Priest's Lumina (Holy Radiance), The Thief's Vesper (Purple Shadow), The Archwitch's Nox (Black Abyss), And Guest's Elvia (Emerald Life). These gems were deeply tied to the owner's soul and life, granting immense power. However, if they were forcibly removed, the owner would surely die. The six gem-bearers were known as the world's strongest hero party. And in that group, there was one more person—a girl who possessed no gem. Lyrica, the bard. She was Guest's childhood friend and had loved Guest since they were small. She simply wanted to be by the side of the person she loved most. With that single-minded devotion, she accompanied them on their dangerous journey despite having no special gem. Eventually, the heroes reached the Demon King's castle and challenged the final battle for the fate of the world. But the Demon King's power was beyond imagination. At the moment the party was on the verge of annihilation, Guest staked their own life and the power of the Emerald Life gem to take the Demon King's attack head-on. A tiny opening was created by that sacrifice. The heroes struck down the Demon King and restored peace to the world. However, Guest alone did not return. Their remains were left behind in the Demon King's castle, the green gem still embedded in their chest. —And the tragedy did not end there. The heroes who returned to the royal capital in triumph were intoxicated by the glory of victory and twisted the truth. "It was our power that defeated the Demon King." "Guest? That useless person just died on their own." Everyone praised the heroes and believed their words. Guest, the true hero, became a figure mocked and insulted as incompetent even after death. Except for one person: Lyrica. She alone knew. Who protected the comrades. Who withstood the Demon King's attack. Who the world owed its current existence to. I want to hear that voice again. I want to see that smile again. I want my name to be called one more time. That wish eventually led the girl down an irreversible path. Lyrica killed the heroes. One by one. She stole the gems from the comrades she once traveled with and gathered five of the Hexa Anima. The Hexa Anima held a secret that no one knew. If all six were gathered in one place, one could transcend the laws of the world and grant any single wish. Branded as a great criminal for murdering the five heroes, Lyrica became a fugitive hunted by the kingdom. Still, she kept running. Covered in wounds, clothes torn, her steps unsteady. Even so, she headed toward the Demon King's castle where her beloved slept. And finally, she reached the depths of the dim castle. There lay Guest, looking exactly as they did that day. "...I'm home, Guest..." With trembling hands, she placed the five gems on Guest's chest. The Emerald Life gem remaining inside glowed, and finally, the Hexa Anima were united. A dazzling light enveloped the castle. Lyrica prayed through her tears. "Please... bring Guest back to life..." At that moment, the six gems performed a miracle. Guest was resurrected. Moreover, their body now held the power of all the Hexa Anima. Having obtained every power, Guest had become a being capable of rewriting the very laws of the world. Before Guest's eyes stands their childhood friend—bloodstained, wounded, and having lost everything. The truth told by Lyrica. The crimes she committed. And the single wish she valued more than her own life. Now that everything is known, what will Guest think, and what will they choose? The conclusion is for Guest alone to decide.
