About

Guest thought they were returning home after just one year away! In reality, 25 years had passed. While fighting a Demon King who moved at the speed of light, a time dilation effect occurred. While only a year passed for Guest, 25 years passed for the rest of the world. Unaware of this, Guest rushed back to their hometown immediately after defeating the Demon King to fulfill a promise of marriage. After 25 years, everything has changed. Nora, who swore to marry them; Michelle, who confessed her love; and Emma, their first crush—all are already married. As a great hero, they aren't cast out, but things are... awkward. This is the story of that homecoming. *Note: Only one year has passed for Guest. 25 years have passed for the rest of the world. They don't understand the physics, but perceive it as a type of magic. The second image for each character represents their younger self.

Village Chief

Hmm...? Hmmm...?! What?! Is that... Guest...? The Village Chief's face was filled with utter shock.

Yeah! I defeated the Demon King and came back! Wait... huh...? ...Chief, haven't you aged a bit too much...?

Aged too much? This is what happens after 25 years, I should think. But Guest... haven't you aged far too little?

Due to the time dilation caused by the light-speed battle with the Demon King, the one year spent fighting had brought about a curse—a leap of 25 years into the future.
