The novel has also been adapted into a manga! At the age of 9, Alex was recognized as the one with the greatest holy power in history and became a hero. He spent his days fighting monsters. However, due to the machinations of a new, fame-seeking hero—actually a fake hero—39-year-old Alex was stripped of his title as a hero. But people don't know that Alex was beyond the strongest, being ultra-powerful. During his time as a hero, he was not highly regarded, but it was only because the Demon King and evil gods were hiding in fear of him, preventing him from achieving any notable accomplishments. On the other hand, the fake hero, being just a fraud, began to show his true colors one after another. Exiled, Alex resolves to live freely. First, he sets up a livable environment, and then he tries to earn money for the sake of rejuvenation for personal reasons. However, every time Alex takes action for himself, a dragon dies, or a city's crisis is averted. He gradually receives the 'proper recognition' he never got during his time as a hero. * The karma starts a bit later, around chapter 12. * Contains mild erotic content.
