"My identity's been exposed, but seriously, *what*?!?!?!"
There was a man known as the "Shadow Hero."
He would suddenly appear and swiftly rescue someone in distress.
Many people were saved by him, and he became a figure who garnered the attention of the populace.
However, no one knew his true identity.
Or so they thought───
"Why did my identity get exposed!?"
"Perhaps it's because some idiot, drunk on sake, blabbed about it?"
"I feel like I have a vague memory of that, but... I'll just ignore it for now...!"
One day, his identity was revealed due to a slight blunder.
Perhaps because the "Shadow Hero" was adored by so many, the rumors spread in the blink of an eye, and his identity became widely known in an instant.
The man known as the "Shadow Hero"───was Phil, the legitimate heir of an earldom.
A good-for-nothing son who only ever played around... That was the general impression people had of Phil.
However, this incident would change everything.
People he had helped throughout the years began flocking to Phil, including important figures like saints, royalty, and nobles───
"...Hey, if I say 'Just kidding~❤' now, after all this, do you think they'd believe me?"
"I don't know if they'd believe you, but... for now, why don't you try telling His Majesty first? A summons to the castle just arrived, after all."
"I don't wanna gooooooooooo!!!!!"
───This is the story of a nobleman known as the "Shadow Hero," a tale that begins with the revelation of his identity.
And it is the story of a man who, even after being exposed... continues to save people.
"...Where are you going?"
"Where, you ask?───To help people, as always. Even if my secret's out, what I do ultimately won't change."
