Episode 4 Story

Monsters suddenly invade the fortress city of Salmaria, which is currently lively with a celebratory parade for repelling the Demon King's army. Although Kagami saves the citizens with his overwhelming power, information quickly spreads that a massive horde of up to 10,000 monsters from the Demon King's army is approaching the city. While Rex and his companions suggest a retreat, Kagami entrusts Alice to them and heads out alone to intercept the enemy. Rex and the others follow after him, only to witness Kagami overwhelming the entire army all by himself. As they stand in astonishment, Takako begins to reveal the grueling past that Kagami has kept hidden.

Introduction

Earthclear is a world of swords and sorcery. In this world, people are born with a specific level and a predetermined role.

From Warriors, Martial Artists, and Priests, to Mages, Thieves, Merchants, Hunters, Shamans, Kings, Sages, and Heroes—there are many callings. Yet, there is one role that boasts the largest population, lacks any real power, and is considered the absolute weakest of them all... the "Villager".

One day, a Villager parent and child find themselves under attack by a monster. Just as danger closes in, a young man swoops in elegantly and dispatches the beast with effortless ease, leaving the rescued pair utterly astounded.

"Koji Kagami, a Villager... Level... 999?!"

Having reached the absolute pinnacle of Level 999, the Villager Koji Kagami chooses to defy his predetermined path in life. Alongside Alice, the daughter of the Demon King who stands at the apex of the demon race, the two cross paths. Together with their companions, they set out to achieve coexistence between demons and humans.

In a world where both sides are destined to be in conflict, what exactly is the true mechanism of this world that awaits them...!
