Chapter 2: You Can’t Go Back
In a world where swords, magic, beasts, demons, legendary treasures, and adventurers exist, heroes battle against the unending evil forces of the Demon King.
In this world, the Demon King had already conquered half of the entire realm and was still expanding his powerful domain.
He was so strong that no individual nor party could defeat him, leaving humans with no choice but to await their inevitable fate—conquest by the Demon King and his army.
Desperate for a way to stop him, the leaders of this world prayed earnestly to the gods, seeking support and guidance.
Thankfully, the gods answered their pleas, granting them a skill that would allow them to summon a hero from another world.

The eight other kings nodded in agreement and immediately stood, making their way to the summoning chamber.
Inside, they took their respective thrones and signaled for the mages to begin the spell.
The ritual was so powerful that it required fifty archmages to perform.
