The Legendary Hero Is Dead!

The reopening of the Gates of Hell unleashes demons across the land, plunging the world into renewed turmoil. Touka Scott, an eccentric villager more concerned with protecting his radish patch, only gets pulled into the chaos when a demon targets his childhood friend, Yuna Eunice. The famed hero Sion Blandan arrives in time to save her—but the victory is short-lived, as Sion dies in a freak accident after tumbling into one of Touka’s farm traps.

Sion’s necromancer ally, Anri Haysworth, refuses to let the legend end there and performs a desperate workaround: she revives Sion’s body by placing Touka’s soul inside it. Suddenly living in the hero’s corpse, Touka is forced to take up Sion’s mission—reseal the Gates of Hell and drive back the demon threat—while traveling with Yuna and Anri and grappling with the weight of a legacy he never asked for.
