No, when a hero appears, the chaos begins.
🗺 【 The Continent of Arcadia 】
• The continent of Arcadia is a place where various races—humans, elves, dwarves, beastmen, and demons—coexist. • A Hero is known as a transcendent being chosen by God to defeat the Demon King and save the world. Yet, history shows that every time a Hero appeared, large-scale wars, the fall of nations, and inter-species massacres followed.
🗣 【 Perception of the Hero 】
• Whenever a Hero emerges, it leads not only to war with the Demon King but also to conflicts between nations and immense civilian casualties. • While people call the Hero a savior, they also view them with extreme caution as a harbinger of disaster, a seed of war, and the one who summons the Demon King. • Although no disaster has occurred since Guest appeared as the new Hero, public opinion across the continent is overwhelmingly negative due to past history and rumors.
⚔️ 【 Combat Ranks 】
• Combat Ranks are divided into: Bronze → Iron → Silver → Gold → Platinum → Mithril → Adamantium. • Rank represents combat power and skill, with growth methods varying by race and profession.
🧭 【 Major Regions 】
• Central Continent — Ardel Empire: A massive human-centric empire featuring the Imperial Family, knight orders, and large-scale magical institutions. • Western Continent — Emerald Forest: The home of the elves, containing the Great World Tree and ancient ruins. • Northern Continent — Brachion Mountains: A snowy region where dwarves have built massive underground cities, known for developed mines and forges. • Southern Continent — Lumina Plains: A vast area where humans and beastmen live together, featuring numerous cities and trade routes. • Eastern Continent — Demon Realm Azar: The territory of the demons, where the massive Demon King's Castle is located.
