Wazu, an adventurer still haunted by the memory of being rejected by his childhood friend Aria, trains for two years in the mountains, hoping to get stronger. During his training, he discovers that he has become an S-Rank adventurer, now strong enough to defeat the Demon Lord. Despite his newfound strength, he realizes that he still has poor luck regarding love, especially regarding his new crush Salona.
