Synopsis
Since the discovery of "Samon Syndrome" 30 years ago, thousands of young people have traveled to fantasy worlds, the few returnees managing to keep the special abilities they acquired in those parallel universes.

Akatsuki Ousawa, known as the "Rogue Hero," discards his peaceful life in the fantasy world Alayzard to face new challenges upon returning to Earth. He comes back with Miu, the daughter of the Demon King he defeated, and is now forced to hide her true identity by having her pose as his little sister. The two soon join Babel, a special school designed for those who have acquired special abilities and magical powers through their journey to a fantasy world.

Babel was seemingly founded to train young interdimensional travelers and "guide them to the right path for the sake of humanity and themselves," but its true purpose remains unclear to the pseudo-siblings. Will Akatsuki and Miu be able to overcome the hostile, powerful student council and uncover the forces at play behind the scenes?

Character
A hero who saved the world from the invasion of the demon king Galius in the other world of Aleezard. However, because of his past events, he doesn't like being called a hero, and calls himself the "Stray Hero/Rogue Hero '' . He behaved uninhibitedly, and when he was in Arai Zard, he would get his hands on beautiful girls and beautiful women who had a reputation for being cute. However, she also has a single-minded side to the woman she truly loved. He believes that a world where women shed tears is wrong, and believes he can do anything to stop women from crying. It's not considered a problem, as all members of the team like Akatsuki.) In terms of strength, he is the strongest human warrior in Araizard.

At first, he was just a helpless young man who was summoned to another world, Aleezard, by the will of the world. He stays at the royal castle of the Shelfed kingdom as a friend of the hero Leon, his fiancé, Princess Listy, and his companions Zex and Lutier. rice field. Later, when the hero Leon lost his life defending himself during the invasion of Shelfed by Demon King Galius, he lamented his powerlessness and went to the Divine Realm alone to master the gymnastics technique called "Renkan-Kiko". Succeeded in rescuing Listy and others who were in trouble during the operation to recapture Eldia. After that, he formed a party with Listy and others, traveled around the world defeating the Demon King's army and the villains he didn't like, and finally succeeded in defeating Demon King Galius "alone". At that time, Galius himself entrusts his daughter Myu. After that, he thought that the existence of himself who defeated the demon king and Myuu who was entrusted to him would cause unnecessary confusion in Aleizard, and after a few days of subjugating the demon king, he parted with Listy and others and returned to the original world with Myuu. At that time, he was chased by 44 beautiful maids under Listy's direct control, but survived with brutal attacks inherited from her master. After that, Mew and two people enter the Japanese branch of the international educational institution "BABEL" (JPN Babel). Along with Mito, she entered Class B, but was promoted to Class A after winning quite a lot in ranking matches.

Just as he was told he was a real hero when he entered Babel, the "stray hero" is a term used by those who don't know the truth behind Leon's death. In fact, the truth of the incident is that he killed Leon in order to stop him, who was obsessed with the idea of ​​defeating the Demon King and ran wickedly, protected Leon's honor in order to avoid the tragedy of collapsing the country, and took the blame himself. In addition, because he took the initiative in sticking to the justice of not killing anyone other than warriors, even demons, there are few demons who dislike Akatsuki. "Renkan-Kiko" is the power to strengthen a part of the body or the whole body by circulating an energy different from the magical power inside oneself. You can also release the refined Ki as energy, and you can strengthen it by enveloping it in your weapon. Furthermore, due to its nature, it is also possible to obtain the opponent's ability by absorbing the opponent's Ki. During the decisive battle with Kyoya at Babel, he activated Renkan Kikikong with his whole body and soul just before his death, and proceeded to the second stage of releasing his abilities by crossing over to another world twice. As a result, he acquires the ability to turn himself into a psychic body and the power to circulate not only the inside of the body but also the outside of the body. In addition, Renkan Kiko, which overcomes the power of super-high life forms, has the potential to "hit the power to defeat even gods" according to Kyoya.

Originally, he wasn't that lustful, but it was the influence of the fist god who trained Akatsuki, and when he was called to Alezard, he remembered the awkwardness of running into Listy naked while she was taking a bath. rice field. He has a technique (commonly known as a brutal attack) that can pull out and strip women's underwear in an instant so that the person himself does not notice. When he was a bouncer in the brothel guild, he used to dress up, so he is more than a professional at dressing women's underwear. After thwarting Kyoya's coup d'état, starting with the Phil incident, he built a huge facility that could be called Noah's headquarters on the remains of Babel Tower, a symbol of the cocoon. Established the third power "Independent Genesis Organization Noah" following "Cocoon" and "Vermillion Twilight" which are the top of the world. As the leader of the group, he greets all the members who will be with him for a long time.

Abilities
Arms Device (or "AD" for short) are wristbands that are given to students during training. When an AD is worn, it conforms to the user's natural powers and abilities and transforms into the weapon most suitable for the user. Akatsuki could not initially generate an AD because he had only been given one of them and it was not strong enough to manifest his power. Upon noticing that something happened when he put on an AD borrowed from a fellow student in addition to his own (believing that his own may be broken), Akatsuki kept putting on more AD (seven) until his AD weapon finally manifested in the form a huge, unusual sword with tremendous power. The seven AD are the minimum number needed to manifest the sword - if he wears more AD wristbands the sword changes shape and becomes even more powerful. This other-dimensional sword, which is called "Laevateinn", has writings engraved upon it. Since discovering this new ability, Akastuki regularly employs it in battle. He also managed to control "Sleipnir", a magical supersonic motorcycle once driven by his father.
