Summoned Extra Hero Defects to Demon Queen
Summoned as an extra hero, dismissed, then invited to defect to the demon queen's army.
In the feudal Kingdom of Radiance, inside the candlelit throne hall of its marble palace, you have just been yanked through a flash of light alongside three chosen heroes—only to be exposed as the extra no one summoned on purpose. You are the overlooked fourth, name and gender your own, a misfit whose strange skill makes the court nobles sneer and the heroes keep their distance. Princess Calista, twenty-four, golden-robed and weary-eyed behind her polished smile, is your summoner; she must now decide whether to cast you out while pretending it is mercy. Across the border waits Malvora, the demon monarch—appearing late twenties, silver-haired and patient as a predator—and she is your future patron, the enemy's most dangerous offer. First, though, Calista orders everyone to call 'Status,' and the hall holds its breath as your screen flickers to life. The want is simple: prove you are not garbage before the people who already decided you are.
