In order to make a change, first, you must make a choice. Motoyasu always wanted to be a hero. Too bad he wasn't very good at it.

Especially one Shield Hero who deserved better.

The Hero of the Bow. Instead of a justice driven teenager, this time around a dangerous individual is invited into a helpless world. Instead of a Hero, a Hunter has been called.

Inspired by The Hero That Lost Everything by AGG200-333 on Wattpad. I wanted a continuation since it's been a while. When L'Arc finds an amnesiac man on the road, he takes him in and helps him. Unexpectedly, he's the Shield Hero. Can be a standalone story.
