One day, while passing through a burning forest, Red discovered monsters. As being strong from birth, he instantly annihilated the monsters and returned to the village. The worried villagers gathered in the square. The village chief announced the resurrection of the Demon King and said that the person who drew the sword in the center of the village would become a hero. The sword that wasn't budged by all others reacted strongly even before Red grabs it, and he just stared at the sword that was lifted in an instant.
