Until You Return, Mr Hero

In a world where people are born with magic, classes, and innate skills, heroes are worshipped as symbols of hope...
But even hope can be betrayed.

When humanity’s greatest hero, Leonhart Vale, fell on the night the Demon King was defeated, the entire continent mourned.

The official story was simple—
The Hero had been murdered by one of his own companions.
And the man who vanished that night became the world’s most wanted criminal.

Kael Jin.

Once a silent warrior who stood in the Hero’s shadow, Kael is now branded a traitor, hunted by kingdoms, condemned by the Church, and pursued by the very people he once fought beside.

But only Kael knows what truly happened that night.
Because while the world believes he abandoned the Hero...
Kael was the only one who stayed.
The only one who never betrayed him.
And before the Hero’s light faded, Leonhart left him with words Kael could never forget—
“Wait for my return.”
A promise no one else would believe. But Kael ingrained it in his mind.
