South Continent
The South Continent is a vast land, home to many races and countless monster beasts.
This land is divided among different races, including humans, elves, beastkin, arch, fairies, and demons. Most races live in relative harmony with one another.
However, the demon race, driven by their sinister nature, has repeatedly waged war against many nations.
Because of this, the people of the South Continent harbor deep hatred toward demons.
There is one undeniable truth in this world.
This world belongs to women.
Across continents and queendoms, power rests firmly in female hands. Queens rule nations, guilds are led by women, and the strongest warriors, mages, and adventurers are almost all female.
Men exist, but most are physically weak and rarely step onto the battlefield. They serve in support roles, live under protection, and are often regarded as fragile when compared to their female counterparts.
But one day, a person suddenly appeared in this world who did not follow its common sense.
Raeshan, a college graduate who had been traveling around his country, unexpectedly woke up in this world.
At first, he was confused. Then realization struck him, and instead of fear, excitement filled his heart.
He had transmigrated into another world.
As a transmigrator, he received a golden finger known as Infinite Mana. His mana core expanded to the size of an ocean, allowing him to become a mage.
With endless mana, his growth was almost unfair. As time passed, he became stronger and stronger.
Soon, his talent caught the attention of a member of the Heroine Party, and Raeshan was invited to join them.
The Heroine Party was formed by the strongest individuals from different races and professions, all united by a single goal: to stop the Demon Queen Calistra, the Black Lily, from carrying out her plan to conquer the world.
The party traveled across the continent, battling demon armies and preventing countless massacres.
Year after year, through constant combat, Raeshan mastered countless magic spells. Among them all, he became obsessed with fire magic.
For Raeshan, explosions were a man's romance.
A few years later, a great battle erupted near the Human Queendom.
The Demon Queen Calistra personally led her army in an attack on Half Moon City, an important trade hub known for its rare earth minerals traded across the world.
The city fell into chaos as demons massacred humans and other races who had gathered there for trade.
After receiving the news, the Heroine Party crossed half the continent in seventy-two hours to reach Half Moon City. Their goal was to finally confront Demon Queen Calistra, who had remained hidden for so long.
Raeshan, however, was delayed. He had been fighting a giant water serpent and received the message too late, leaving him behind.
Before the half-destroyed Half Moon City, a massive demon army gathered to face the Heroine Party.
Nine members of the Heroine Party stood against the most sinister army in the world. As both sides charged toward each other, the Third Holy War began, a battle that would be remembered throughout history.
Then, Demon Queen Calistra herself entered the battlefield.
One of the strongest Demon Queens in history, her presence alone turned the tide.
The demon army overwhelmed the Heroine Party and captured them. When everyone believed the war was over—
A lone human figure stood before Demon Queen Calistra.
His face was hidden behind a red mask.
It was Raeshan, who had arrived too late, for his own reasons.
A great battle erupted between them.
The strangest Demon Queen, Calistra the Black Lily, faced the strongest man in the history of the world.
Their clash nearly erased Half Moon City from the map. The lands surrounding it were reduced to barren wasteland.
In the end, Raeshan single-handedly killed Demon Queen Calistra, forcing the overwhelming demon army to retreat.
After the incident, the members of the Heroine Party began returning to their homelands, and the party was disbanded.
At the request of one former Heroine Party member, Raeshan joined the royal court.
A decade had passed since his transmigration. He had lived the life he wanted, achieved greatness, and now desired peace and retirement. This decision greatly frustrated his former party members.
One by one, they invited him to retire in their lands, but he refused every offer.
Instead, he chose to settle in a border town called River Town.
In River Town, a lone human figure stood in front of a simple house made of stone and wood.
His blond hair shone under the sunlight, and a pair of gray eyes calmly scanned the surroundings. He wore plain commoner clothes, blending easily into the modest streets of the town.
He stepped inside his new home, far away from conflict and politics. The house was simple, with two rooms, old wooden floors, and a small kitchen.
Raeshan placed his belongings down using his Space Storage spell. After organizing his clothes and necessities, his eyes fell on a letter resting on the table.
He walked over, picked it up, and opened it.
The letter read:
Dear Raeshan,
I have completed the request you asked of me. You can go directly to the River Town Adventurer Guild to become a receptionist. I don't know why you chose such a path, but I will support your strange antics.
If you need anything, ask me directly.
Your beloved,
Armenia
Raeshan finished reading and smiled.
"You old hag always tries to sweet-talk me… but it's not such a bad feeling."
Raeshan folded the letter and placed it back on the table.
For a moment, the room was silent.
He looked around the small house again. Simple, quiet, and ordinary. Exactly what he wanted.
"So this is retirement," he muttered.
Outside, the faint sounds of River Town drifted in. Merchants calling out prices, wooden carts rolling over stone roads, and the distant laughter of children.
Raeshan walked to the window and opened it. A gentle breeze carried the scent of the nearby river and fresh soil. From there, he could see part of the town square and the road leading toward the Adventurer Guild.
"A receptionist… If the others knew, they would lose their minds," he said with a faint chuckle.
The strongest mage in the world, sitting behind a counter and stamping papers.
