It was late at night in Aldera. Everyone is having fun and drinking after their victory in the festival of heroes.

"Hey bartender, can I have another drink?" A man with green hair asked.

"Another? Man, aren't you the least bit drunk?" The bartender asked.

"Nope. I still feel completely sober." The green haired man says with a smile. "I see. As long as you keep giving me business, you can drink all you want." The bartender says wallking away.

'If only drinking could truly take the pain away.'

There was a loud bang from the front of the bar. Everyone turned to see a girl with bobbed brown hair, chocolate brown eyes, and permanent blush. She had a look of fear mixed with worry and desperation. "Please, I need help. Monsters are attacking my home. I need help, please."

"What are you talking about girl?"

"There are terrible monsters attacking my village. They came out of nowhere and started attacking. I need help. Please."

"Why don't you just go to the Musutafu castle and ask them for help?" One of the people there asks drunk.

"Please, they're not like most monsters. There like something worse. More powerful than most monsters I've seen. They're more like...demons."

The green haired man froze when she said this.

"Demons? Those are just myths. Like the UA Knights. Just stories parents tell there kids so they'll behave."

"But it's true. These things are completely resistant to whatever weapons we use against them. I've come to Aldera because I've heard that you had really strong warriors. Please!"

No one spoke up. The green haired man was about to speak.

"I'll help you." A man with blonde hair and grey eyes came up. "I'm Neito Monoma. If you came here for a powerful warrior to help you, then look no further for I'm the strongest one in town."

"Thank you. Come on. We have to go now." The brown haired girl left.

'They're going to die if I don't go.' The green haired man left 3 bags of gold on the counter. "Here's payment for the beer I've had for the past 3 months."

"T-Thank you. Will you finally tell us your name? Since you're leaving, will you just give in and tell us?"

The greenette stop walking and turned to the bartender. "I'll give you my name when I come back for a victory drink." He turned around and left the bar.

Timeskip to the village:

There were black creatures everywhere, searching for any people they missed so they can eat them.

The brown haired girl and Monoma make it to the village to find almost everything was destroyed.

She covers her mouth from the horrors she's seeing.

"This is your village? It looks like crap."

"That's rude! Can you just get rid of them?"

Monoma walks up to the monsters getting their attention. They walk up to him and just stare at the man.

"So this is where you guys went? You left me in Aldera without telling me where you were going."

'Wait...what?' She looks in horror and fear.

"Sorry, we thought you would have fun just hanging out at the bar until we got back." One of the monsters says. "Well I never said I didn't. But you could've st least gave me a warning. For all I knew, you were dead." "HAHAHAHAHA! Like anyone in this pathetic realm could hurt us." "Good point."
