### Helck's Past Arc

At the age of 2, a pack of monsters attacked Helck's and Cless's village and killed their parents. Cless and Helck headed for the capital to find work, however they were forced to live a life of poverty. At the age of 6, Cless became very ill and Helck has to search for a doctor. The two were found in the snow by Sharuami who called her father, Rafaed, to them. Rafaed had Cless seen by Mikaros, who cured him. From then on, Rafaed took Cless and Helck in and raised them. At the age of 16, he joined the army. At the age of 18, Cless became the leader of the 3rd Infantry.

## Plot

### Demon King Tournament Arc

Demon King Tooru is defeated by the hero Cless. The demon castle was taken and the Human world erupted in celebration.

### Save the Humans Arc

Cless summoned hyperspace energy under the King's Will. Mikaros also enhanced Cless's power to match Helck's.

As Vamirio and Helck run towards the Human King, they are ambushed by Cless. Vamirio prepared for Cless's attack, but did not counterattack because Cless saw through her plan. Vamirio tells Helck that she will fight Cless, but Helck decides to fight his brother himself, much to the displeasure of Vamirio. Helck tells Cless that he is happy to see that his brother is alive, but states that he will not forgive Cless for hurting his comrade. The two heroes then proceed to clash.

Cless, Alicia, and the winged humans commanded by Human King to attack Mikaros. The Human King then commanded the soldiers to fight Rafaed, but Rafaed manages to escape. Cless chases after Rafaed.

While Vamirio is holding the Warriors of Ruin off, Cless comes to her aid. After noticing Vamirio's condition, Cless decides to take drastic action and attempt to go after Sharuami directly. Unfortunately, Mikaros manages to stop Cless and banishes Cless.

Cless took this advantage to go into hyperspace to kill all of the winged soldiers for them to be resurrected outside hyperspace. Afterwards, he comforts Sharuami before wishing his brother farewell.

Cless becomes the new king.
