Plot

Allen is banished from the Duchy of Westfeldt on the account of his low level and given Gift. But that doesn't phase him in the slightest, since he has memories of his past life as a hero intact. He actually sees this twist of fate as a blessing since his father and brother changed after his mother's death, and he can finally live his life as he pleases without having to uphold the family image and name and endure their abuse as worthless since he's not gifted. That peace is cut short when he saves his ex-fiancée and only friend, and is sent on an adventure to figure out what the demons are plotting.

Template:Nihongo
Template:Voiced by[1]
The banished former heir of the Duchy of Westfeldt. His mother died when he was young, and his father blamed him for it, and was despised even more when he found out her death was in vain as his son had no apparent Gift and was considered low level. However, unbeknownst to his father, Allen is indeed a hero that was reincarnated in the family with all his memories of his past life intact, as well as his powers. He saw his brother and father turning evil, and was more sad about his brother as his father never loved him. The only true friend he ever had was his ex-fiancée, Riese, as she never judges him on level or Gifts, as she knew that wasn't what made a good person.
