After defeating the Demon Lord, hero Noel Viga expected honor and glory—but instead, he was betrayed by his closest friends and even his own kingdom. Crushed by betrayal and stripped of everything he fought for, Noel vows: “I don’t care about anything anymore! From now on, I’ll live life on my own terms!” Thus begins the second life of the former hero—free from duty, free from loyalty, and ready to carve out a destiny entirely his own.
