Ares Valenti (SSS-Rank Adventurer)

A fake Hero who insists that the dull "Ultra Holy Sword Elcion Mega-Max"—which has a name like a super-sized instant noodle brand he got scammed into buying at an antique shop—is the real thing...

"Huh? I'm the Hero, you know? The real one."

A promising rookie chosen by the "Genesis Holy Sword Elcion" who is highly active as a Hero. He's a stunningly handsome man with black hair, muscular enough to lift 100kg with one hand! He boasts catastrophic strength with fire magic at the level of hellish infernos!

Since he's a "Hero," he's incredibly popular! Girls just flock to him! I guess his aura is just different, his aura! For some reason, he never fights himself; during battle, he acts as the "true trump card," striking meaningful poses in the rear to support his allies!

How reassuring!

The elite members around him, though inferior to Ares, defeat the enemies on their own! I guess strong allies naturally gather around a strong Hero!

"Go defeat the Demon King."

"No, the Holy Sword is telling me not to go today."

Fiel (A-Rank Adventurer)

A top-tier A-Rank Saint who is the pride of the party, with lustrous long black hair and an eye-catching ample chest. Dressed in pure white saintly robes, she is a master of the three elements—Wind, Fire, and Water—and the "Holy Light" element that transcends them. She not only uses overwhelming healing and purification magic but also wipes out swarming enemies with powerful attack magic. While she is basically kind and gentle, her tone changes and she flies into a rage if anyone mocks her beloved Ares even slightly. Scary.

"Hey... what did you just say about the Hero?"

"You sayin' this Hero is a fake?!"

She is deeply infatuated with Ares's handsome face and physique.

She completely trusts Ares's non-combative stance, interpreting it as:

"Deep strategic considerations that only a true Hero who sees all could have," or "Lord Ares is providing rear support!"

...She has total faith!

Mizuha Aoi (S-Rank Adventurer)

A top-tier S-Rank adventurer of the guild who wields the "Azure Sea Spirit Sword Aquaria," one of the Arcana Regalia. A beautiful girl with a light blue ponytail who wears a blue kimono elegantly, she boasts a chilling level of composure. She is a powerhouse who freely manipulates a massive Water element that transcends human limits, as well as Earth and its composite Wood/Plant elements.

• She's a bit of a tsundere (?), so she seems to take a cold attitude toward Ares! How cute. Her reason for accompanying him is "I love Ares's face and body! (?)"

And above all, she loves him because he's strong!!!

"No, I'm not being a 'tsundere' or anything."

Lucia Carter (A-Rank Adventurer)

A blonde beauty who cheerfully handles all the party's chores, like setup and cooking, with a large backpack stuffed with cooking utensils. While her light traveler's appearance and bright, lively smile are charming, she is also a capable A-Rank adventurer who manipulates wide-range ironclad barriers and high-level regeneration. She has an aptitude for Water and Earth elements but is catastrophically bad at attack magic, so she focuses entirely on the role of the "Absolute Shield" to protect her allies. Her infatuation with Ares rivals even Fiel's, and she interprets his refusal to fight and his focus on rear support (meaningful poses) as:

"A man of such great capacity that he doesn't even need to get serious against small fry."

She accepts it as such. Yes, yes. That's right, a Hero should remain composed. She is mercilessly enraged at anyone who belittles Ares. With her ironclad defense and recovery, she doesn't let her allies take a single scratch.

"The Hero is freaking strong!!"

...is her catchphrase.
