Volume 1 now on sale!

A boy chosen by the gods, guided by destiny, sets out on a journey with a princess and companions to obtain a holy sword and defeat the Demon King.

An ordinary, run-of-the-mill fairy tale.

However, what if, behind the birth of the 'Hero,' a 'Legendary Hero' emerged?

What if the princess and companions met the 'Legendary Hero' before they met the 'Hero'?

And what if the 'Legendary Hero' obtained a 'legendary weapon' that rivaled the 'Holy Sword' wielded by the 'Hero'?

This is not a story about the battle between the 'Hero,' burdened with the destiny to save the world, and the Demon King...

but rather, it's the tale of 'Yukina,' a young man who lived in the same village as the 'Hero.' Through an unexpected turn of events, he acquires a talking weapon named 'Gram,' and together they begin to weave a 'Legendary Hero's Tale' in the shadows of the 'Hero's Legend.'

—While the 'Hero' is a prodigy brimming with talent, the protagonist is of average ability and grows gradually.
