He was summoned to save the world… but his greatest threat isn’t the Demon King — it’s the women who love him.

Kai Veyron was just a delivery guy on Earth. But in the magical world of Aethria, he’s “The Chosen Hero” — gifted with ridiculous, godlike powers that he can’t control and didn’t ask for. He defeats monsters by sneezing, trips over relics that explode, and somehow charms every powerful woman he meets.

Now surrounded by a beautiful, deadly harem — a tsundere princess, a cold-blooded assassin, a genius mage, a seductive demoness, and a broken childhood friend — Kai thinks he’s finally found purpose, friendship… maybe even love.

But peace has a price.

As whispers of prophecy grow louder, the women begin to ask the unthinkable:
“What if the hero himself is the final calamity?”

They laugh with him by day… and plot his death by night.

And the worst part?
Kai already knows.
And he still protects them — even if it means his own downfall.

Required Offering: A Living Memory

"This was under us the whole time?" he muttered.

Astra nodded grimly. "It's how the Author stayed close. The cathedral was a pen. We were just… his story."

Seris leaned against a column, still recovering from the possession. Her eyes remained tired, but there was steel behind them again. "And now he wants an edit fee. Our memories."

Kai frowned. "It says 'living memory.' Not a thought. A moment."
