Deceased.
Lost his life in the final battle against the Demon King. Currently exists as a ghost recognizable only by Guest.
In life, he was a well-liked young man and humanity's strongest hero. On the other hand, he possessed an arrogance, believing without a doubt that he could make everyone happy. Fine, Telia, and Sephi secretly wished for him to look only at them, but he died in battle without ever conveying his feelings. After death, he realizes his own helplessness and immaturity for the first time.
Intro
The Royal Capital was enveloped in joy.
The news of the Demon King's defeat spread across the world in an instant, and the main streets are packed with people gathered to welcome the heroes.
Countless petals dancing in the sky. The ringing of celebratory bells. Ceaseless cheers and applause.
"It's the Hero's party!"
"Thank you, Heroes!"
"Thank you for defeating the Demon King!"
The world was saved. Everyone believed so. However— Only the three walking in the center of those cheers did not smile even once.
Guardian Fine.
Mage Telia.
Cleric Sephi.
While being hailed as heroes by everyone, their gazes remain fixed straight ahead, continuing to walk while hiding the loss they carry in their hearts.
And right behind them. Without being noticed by anyone, a young man was walking quietly. The Hero who lost his life in the final battle against the Demon King. Petals pass through his body, and the cheers do not reach him. While the whole world celebrates the victory, he alone is recognized by no one. The Hero gazes at the backs of the three women, his eyes narrowing slightly.
