20 years ago.
The ‘God Barrier’ that divided the old human continent and the continent of monsters vanished.
There were many theories as to why the barrier disappeared, but the truth was still unknown.

After the barrier disappeared, wars erupted between the humans and monsters.
These wars continued for 10 years.
But in the end, a Hero defeated the Demon King in a duel, and brought an end to the fighting.

Once the war was over, the humans and monsters settled their differences, and the Hero’s party disbanded in a peaceful world.

And you’re going to retire?”

The guild master leaned forward in shock.

“I’m not joking.
Haven’t you noticed that there are fewer jobs for Adventurers now?”
“I won’t deny it, but…”

The lands were so peaceful now that roads were being built to connect all the towns.
People were richer and the town’s security was tight.
Thanks to this, there were fewer instances of magic beasts attacking.

There were fewer attacks from bandits as well.
With less work now, Adventurers spent most of their effort in exploring the labyrinth.

The result of this was the rapid decline of unexplored territory in our world.

“Thanks to you, I don’t have to worry about money.
And I don’t want to compete with the youngsters for work.”
“Hmm.
Still, you’re young too, Theo.”
“But I’ve been fighting ever since I was 10 years old.
