Description
Gideon Ragnason, later called Red, emerged from a life entwined with the Hero's Party led by his younger sister Ruti. His Divine Blessing, "Sign of the Guide," granted an initial level surpassing 30, equipping him with early combat prowess and survival expertise. This blessing centered on guiding heroes through their initial quests but imposed strict constraints, barring advanced combat or magic and hindering further leveling. Trained from childhood with the Bahamut Knights, he joined Ruti's party at seventeen as strategist and emotional anchor. His tactical planning, negotiation finesse, and mediation between clashing personalities cemented the group's unity.
Sage Ares deemed Gideon’s plateauing strength a liability once others outpaced him. Driven by jealousy over Gideon’s bond with Ruti and noble ambitions, Ares orchestrated his expulsion. Gideon, burdened by self-doubt about his Blessing’s limits, accepted dismissal without informing Ruti. He vanished into Zoltan, a frontier town, adopting the name "Red" for anonymity. There, he founded an apothecary, applying deep herbal knowledge and common skills like herb gathering and first aid.
Red’s Zoltan life pivoted to community service. His "Provisional Divine Doctor" skill under First Aid Mastery let him stabilize patients and ease symptoms despite unknown causes. Though a D-Rank adventurer, his combat skills—Swift Mastery (Lightning Speed) for 240 km/h bursts, Endurance Mastery (Fatigue Immunity) for tireless fighting, and Great Reflexes for dodging projectiles—remained potent. Tactical insight allowed him to pinpoint optimal actions in chaos.
Relationships shaped his path: Rit, Loggervian princess and ex-adventurer with the "Spirit Scout" Blessing, recognized him in Zoltan, moved in, and became his wife. Their apothecary partnership anchored his new existence. Reuniting with Ruti unveiled her reliance on him; her "Hero" Blessing had stifled her emotions, leaving Gideon as her sole anchor. After Ares’s betrayal and demise, Ruti discarded her Blessing, forged "New Truth" to manage its remnants, and joined Red in Zoltan for peace.
Allies like Yarandrala, the high elf comrade who quit the party protesting Gideon’s exile, followed him to Zoltan, supporting Red and Rit as a confidante. Ares, consumed by obsession, ultimately betrayed the party for demons. In their final clash, Red severed Ares’s hands and delivered a fatal blow, watching his end in silence.
Red’s mastery of common skills enabled broad problem-solving: Survival for navigation, Cooking for sustenance, Repair for maintenance. "Slow Fall" acrobatics ensured controlled descents, bolstering tactical flexibility. Yet his Blessing’s core restriction held—no magic or advanced martial arts.
His story culminates in contentment: running the apothecary with Rit, nurturing Zoltan’s community, and reuniting with Ruti and Yarandrala. This resolution embraces personal fulfillment over epic heroics.
