Hero

Biodata

Background

The Heavenly Realm selects Heroes from across different worlds and grants them abilities for missions to save other worlds 312 340. On the Eternal Continent, a prophecy says that a Hero aided by a firekeeper witch will defeat the Demon Kings and restore peace 278.

Paradise treats these missions as a means of acquiring divine power. After a successful mission, it reclaims the power the Hero gained, erases the Hero’s memories, and sends them back to their original world. Its angels are forbidden to spend more divine power helping a Hero than the mission will recover 340.

Abilities & Support

Blessings and equipment

• Heavenly Realm goddesses can offer chosen Heroes powerful abilities. Suzuki, for example, selected a Blessing that multiplies his attributes ten thousandfold 312.
• A powerful weapon does not guarantee victory: Suzuki’s Hero Sword could not help his party when the Bear King stunned them before they could act 291.

Firekeeper witches

• Defeating powerful enemies can yield souls that a firekeeper witch converts into permanent strength for a Hero 278.
• On the Land of Fire, ordinary monster kills provide little experience; a witch can convert a dropped soul into power at full value 318.

Notable Heroes

• Lant — a Legendary Hero who returns as a Skeleton Hero. Wielding Holy Sword Plus One, he cuts through an otherwise unstoppable causality-based arrow 314 315.
• Suzuki — an Otherworld Hero chosen by a Heavenly Realm goddess; his party is defeated by the Bear King despite his powerful sword 291 312.
• Karen — the Staff Hero, whose Restoration Divine Spark can alter a creature’s appearance, memories, and distribution of attributes 353.
• Xia Mei — possesses the Reversal ability on which the Divine Dragon Knight Order’s Prophet secretly depends 322 330.

Terminology

City World also calls its superpowered protectors Heroes, but they operate through agencies and rankings rather than the Heavenly Realm mission arrangement described above 214 221 226.
