Description
Arel is the main protagonist of this story, a young man living in a world where a goddess bestows a class and associated skills upon every person at the age of ten. Born as the son of two legendary figures, his mother Farah is the Sword Princess and his father Leon is the Magic King, Arel was expected to inherit a powerful class. However, his ceremony produced a shocking and stigmatizing result: he received no class at all, branding him as classless in a society that equates such a designation with worthlessness.
Despite this crushing verdict, Arel refuses to accept a life of limitation. Instead of relying on innate gifts he does not possess, he embraces the path of sheer hard work and relentless training. His defining characteristic is an unshakable belief that perseverance and effort can overcome any obstacle, even the absence of divine favor. He is generally laidback and cool-headed, often appearing calm and not frequently showing his emotions. Yet beneath this composed exterior lies a fiercely competitive spirit that hates to lose, and he can be somewhat clueless, particularly when it comes to matters involving the affections of the girls around him.
Arel’s primary motivation is to prove that being classless does not define his worth or his future. He seeks to become strong on his own terms, training rigorously in swordsmanship under his mother's tutelage. Through this dedication, he discovers a unique and remarkable ability: he can learn, replicate, and master skills and techniques that are supposed to be exclusive to specific classes. Moves like the "double-edged cut," which he learned after losing to it in a duel, become part of his arsenal simply through observation and intense practice. His journey is a classic underdog story, demonstrating that disciplined effort can surpass natural talent, especially when those with innate skills take their gifts for granted.
The story follows Arel from his childhood through his adolescence. After years of training, at the age of fifteen, he leaves home to join an adventurer's guild in the city of Bresgia. There, he faces prejudice due to his classless status, with many guilds refusing to accept him. He eventually finds a place in a struggling guild called Dragon Fang, his mother's former guild, which is desperate for members. His key relationships include Reiner, a skilled swordswoman he frequently dueled with as a child and who later becomes a guildmate, and Lilia, another guild member who is openly affectionate toward him, much to his clueless dismay. His family, including his parents and his unnamed sister who is an Empress, remains a significant part of his background, providing both a legacy to live up to and a support system.
Over the course of the narrative, Arel develops from a determined boy practicing alone in the forest into a remarkably versatile and powerful fighter. His growth is not just in physical strength but in the application of his unique learning ability, allowing him to compete with and defeat opponents who possess far more prestigious classes and skills. His notable abilities are not a single power but a constantly expanding collection of techniques he has observed and mastered, making him an unpredictable and formidable combatant who defies the rigid class system that governs his world.
