In a peaceful village, two young boysâFoyle Austin and his best friend Yuâhave long dreamed about being heroes, but the legends say there can only be one. Their paths forward seem decided when the goddess declares Foyle a âHero,â while leaving Yuâs destiny unclear. But Foyle has a secret only he knows. The role given to him by the goddess is actually âFake Hero.â Far from being destined to overthrow the Demon Lord, defeat awaits him at the true heroâs hand, and Foyle has a good idea who that will be. When Foyle expels Yu from his party, he cements his role as the true heroâs adversary. His powers begin to fade as his friend grows ever stronger. Foyle clearly wonât be the one to save the world, but after an encounter with a mysterious elf in need of help, he sets out to prove that even the villain can be a hero to someone.
