Shade knew that they were heroes. He knew that they were supposed to save people, he knew all of this and more. Since he was awakened as a Hero that he had hated this.
He never liked being a Hero to begin with.
But over time, he realized that it was more than just appearances, it was more than just arrogance, and it was more than just stupid tales about heroic men and women that saved the princess from the demon king…
It was a duty.
A duty that he was given because the Gods of this world, the protectors of humanity, wanted him to become the protector of the people.
It wasn't just a fairy tale, there was a world in constant conflict, the two major races of the world were in constant war, constant bloodshed, constant tragedies.
He, who had seen all of this with his every two eyes, the young boy of back then, who saw how everything on his life was taken away by the demons in the war… He was the one that knew very well what war was, and how horrible it was.
