I WAS The Rank–1 Hero

In a world where heroes are the last line of defence against threats, 17 year-old Zane Skylark, was the most powerful of them all—a symbol of strength and justice. Known as the Rank-1 Hero, [Hope]. Zane's every move was praised by the masses, and his victories were legendary.

But during a mission, Zane is believed to have died, but only to survive due to an unknown skill—[Immortality].

For 60 long days, Zane's lifeless body remains inactive, as the [Hero Association] declares him dead and appoints a new hero who can mimic Zane’s strength under his hero name [Hope].

"After everything I did for them."

After resurrected, Zane finds himself dangled between his past as a 'Rank-1 Hero' and his desire to live a normal life.

"It's been almost 3 years... "

"Maybe I should return home."

Choosing to distance himself from the [Hero Association], he decided to return to his hometown, hoping to bury his past and lead a peaceful existence.

"And if the world needs me—then someone else had to take that responsibility."

But... can a hero truly abandon their destiny? Or will new challenges and tragedies force Zane to confront his past self and the responsibilities he has left behind?
