【Synopsis】

Ares Brave is the Hero――

Ares had repeatedly committed numerous cruel acts towards his companions. Consequently, he was deserted by his comrades just before embarking on the final battle.

However, behind Ares's wicked actions was the intention of keeping his companions far from certain death...

Deliberately playing the role of the hated one, Ares, now alone, ventured solo into the enemy's stronghold, and at the end of the decisive battle, he lost his life...

Or so it was supposed to be...

“My Lord... will you not live alongside me?”

For some reason, Ares, who had survived, found himself living together with the very Last Boss he was supposed to have defeated?
