The Retired Hero's Saga: Why IS My Retirement Never Peaceful?!
The war is over. The Demon Lord is dead.
Ray, the continent’s strongest hero, has officially retired. Now, he has but one goal: to roam the world with his S-Rank Elven Mage girlfriend, Seraphine, and fulfill the 'Bucket List of Curiosities' he had set aside for decades.
However, retirement isn’t as peaceful as he imagined.
When Ray tries to cook dinner, his max-level strength turns a fish into atomic dust. When Seraphine tries to help, her "accidental" overflow of mana turns that dust into an A-Rank ancient dragon.
From "adopting" a hoard of orphan assassins to "elevator-riding" up a 10,000-foot peak using gravity-defying violence, Ray and Seraphine are about to prove one thing: For a Max-Level couple, even a "simple daily life" can accidentally trigger a world-ending event.
When Ray finally arrives at the village, it’s not a hero's welcome waiting for him—it’s a mob of villagers more unhinged than the monsters he fought. Can he truly enjoy a peaceful retirement? Or will he be assimilated by their madness until his own sanity snaps?
"Hey, kid! Why are you fighting monsters shirtless?! Are you trying to flex more muscle than me, the Hero?!"
"And you, Village Chief! Why on earth are you LICKING that secret letter about burning down the village?!"
