Forget epic battles and world-saving quests, at least for Red, our main man. He was kicked out! Can you imagine being told, "Thanks for your service, now get outta here"? Pretty harsh, right?
The Ultimate "I Quit!" Story
Red, formerly known as Gideon, wasn't just some random sidekick. He was a vital part of the Hero's party. He supported his little sister Ruti, the actual Hero destined to defeat the Demon Lord.

But suddenly, boom! Useless. Unnecessary. Sent packing. Talk about a career change!
From Hero to Herbalist
So, what does a banished hero do? He becomes an herbalist, of course! He decides to embrace a simple life. It’s about as far away from demon-slaying as you can get.
Imagine trading a legendary sword for a mortar and pestle. It's like Superman deciding to open a flower shop.
He wants peace. He yearns for normalcy. And maybe, just maybe, a little romance wouldn't hurt.
A Surprising Romance Blossoms
Enter Rit, a beautiful and skilled adventurer. She just so happens to stumble upon Red's humble herbalist shop. Sparks fly! Is she a former princess? You bet! Does that complicate things? Absolutely!
Their relationship is surprisingly wholesome. It's a gentle reminder that life's greatest adventures aren’t always about saving the world. Sometimes, they're about finding someone to share it with.
"Sometimes, the greatest battles are fought within ourselves, for the quiet moments of peace."
More Than Just a Slice of Life
Don't be fooled by the idyllic countryside setting. Beneath the surface, there's a lingering question: why was Red kicked out?
His departure has a deeper cause that is related to Ruti and her Hero's blessing. His own blessing was deemed useless.
There are hints of a darker conspiracy. Is there more to the Demon Lord's defeat than meets the eye? The plot thickens!
