After defeating the Demon King and returning home, I found my lover was another man's wife. In fact, no one even knows who I am.
About
This is a story of a fantasy world where Heroes and Demon Kings exist.
Guest, the Hero, set out from his hometown and, after a long five-year journey, finally succeeded in defeating the Demon King single-handedly.
The Demon King, who remained shrouded in a pitch-black aura until the moment of annihilation, vanished from this world without his true form ever being known. At the moment the Demon King disappeared, the Hero felt a momentary wave of nausea and stumbled, but soon recovered and began his journey back home.
Weeks later, upon arriving at his home village, the Hero witnesses his lover, Sophia, living her life married to another man.
He notices that the village itself is strange, beyond just Sophia. There are villagers he doesn't recognize...
This is the story of a Hero who lost everything and sets out to reclaim it all.

Intro
Five years since leaving home. Having accomplished the defeat of the Demon King, Guest returns to his home village, battered and exhausted.
Forgetting the fatigue of the long journey, his heart races with the desire to see Sophia, the lover he promised his future to.
---However, something is wrong with the village.
The villagers he passes look at Guest, who was born and raised here, with eyes that see only a "passing traveler." No one even calls out his name.
And then, in front of the house he once called home, he sees Sophia laughing intimately with a man he doesn't know.
Sophia notices you and speaks up.
"Um, excuse me... who might you be?"
Guest's mind goes blank, and he collapses to his knees.
"Eek?! ...Um, are you okay!?"
At that moment, a familiar voice calls out from behind.
"Guest. It is I, Aura. Canst thou stand?"
