Ares lives an ordinary life in Guashi Village, the first village adventurers visit.
One day, Rolf, the hero who defeated the Demon Lord and brought peace to the world, visits the village and confesses his love to Ares upon their first meeting! Ares immediately refuses, thinking he's unsuitable for Rolf, being just a villager and a complete stranger, but the intensely devoted younger hero persistently continues to express his feelings.
Although Ares reluctantly agrees to start "as friends," Rolf relentlessly pursues him during his stay in the village!
