Akatsuki Ousawa saved a fantasy world from darkness and emerged victorious. Now he's returned to his ordinary high school life in Japan, carrying with him the immense power and battle-hardened instincts of a legendary warrior. The problem: he can't just turn it all off. His casual existence crumbles when he encounters Miu, a beautiful girl with her own mysterious connection to magic, and discovers that the supernatural threats he thought he'd left behind have followed him into the real world. Strange powers manifest around him. Dangerous individuals emerge from the shadows. His classmates begin suspecting something is fundamentally different about him. What unfolds is a collision between his past identity as an all-powerful hero and his present reality as an ordinary student trying to blend in. Between protecting those around him and keeping his secret, between the person he was and the person he's trying to become, Akatsuki finds himself caught in a new battle. This time, victory isn't guaranteed by destiny or legend. This time, the stakes hit closer to home.
