However, she was defeated by the Demon King in the final battle. Humanity was once again falling into the abyss.

Alan, a boy from a rural village, was a childhood friend of the ‘Hero’. He vowed to take revenge on the Demon King who took away his precious childhood friend. Although he was only an ordinary boy with no special skill, with extraordinary effort, he developed a sword technique that can slay monsters.
