In a world on the path to destruction, a nameless orphan seeks his own future in a brutal world of magic and myth. After he is sought out to be adopted by a cursed Witch and reincarnated Kitsune, he is soon chosen to wield a Relic; magic weaponry of unbelievable power who chose their masters.  Touji Himura must learn how to use this newfound strength and bear the burdens of what it means to become a hero. In this story everyone has their own past that shapes their present and future, from sole surviving Oni to an immortal mage whose memory of others fades, except those who perish by her hands. Please Note: This story is also available to read on Webnovel, as an uncontracted work. Although on that site I have published over 60 chapters, many are out of date or full of mistakes which I am correcting before uploading here. As this is my first work, which I started brainstorming in 2020 then writing in 2022, I have learned much, but made many mistakes along the way. About the tags:There are 2 leads, the main male lead, and secondary female lead (As seen in current cover). Many tags only apply to that secondary lead, such as 'Reincarnation', 'Gender-Bender' and 'Attractive Lead'. As this is primarily written in first person perspective, many themes, including body dysmorphia, are central to the female lead, whose perspective is shown only during interlude chapters.
