The protagonist, Roush, spent every day happily with his beautiful childhood friend. One day at the age of fifteen, he attended the ceremony called the “judgement”. There, Roush was bestowed a useless skill “Unimportant” while his childhood friend was bestowed the legendary skill “Sword Princess”. The hero caught wind of that and pulled in Roush’s childhood friend as his companion in the subjugation of the demon king. Roush was going to become separated from her, but they made an engagement promise at the time. He was earnestly waiting for his childhood friend to come home. And so, at last, his childhood friend had returned. Roush was overjoyed as he welcomed her home. However, it was already too late; she had already given her body and her mind to the hero… In despair, Roush vowed to have his revenge.

It was short and fun. Spoilers for Ch. 7 and beyond:

... more>>
Spoiler

Ch 7: Princess is convinced by protagonist that Yuto is a jerk, and wants to break off the engagement. She also receives a "hair ornament" (Google Translate goofing) from the protagonist. Later, the kind, older servant he was working with tells him that the princess loves him, and she even takes care of the "hair ornament" as if it were a treasure. On a different day, they go to town, leading to the princess and protagonist confessing, leading to kissing, and then to doing the frickey dickey.

Ch 8-14: Unmemorable filler covers most of it: planning with the King to strike back at the Hero because that guy was an as*hole to everyone, apparently. Hero + Friends defeat Demon Lord and come back, and by then the protagonist is a governor-in-training, or something like that. Mina and Hero make fun of him, and force him to come with them to complete the King's final task for them: parade around to other countries (part of the plan to get revenge).

When there, the King strips the Hero of his power (as it's revealed the Hero's power was granted by him), and then the country he visits was lied to believing that the Hero was to do a military match up in that country. Not told of this, the Hero is confused, but nonetheless agrees. Without his power though, he gets winded very easily, and was almost defeated by his opponent. Then, he's told he has to go visit 3 (7?) (Google Translate goofing) countries and do the same thing. On the final one, the protagonist is the Hero's opponent, and the Hero gets ruthlessly beaten up by the protagonist who is on a rant about wanting the Hero to feel his pain when Mina betrayed him. He ends with saying the Princess no longer loves him, the Hero.

The Hero + Friends (Mina and harem) don't believe him, and go to the King. The King jebaits them into thinking the engagement was on, but then says "Nope, you've been an as*hole to everyone. Especially now that I know you planned the attack on my daughter." The princess does the same thing, and says that she thought she loved Yuto, but realizes it was only because she wanted to love him since she believed reality was like a fairy tale. Now though, she loves the protagonist.

Hero gets mad and tries to punch the protagonist with his one good arm (his other got broken in the previous battle against the protagonist, this meeting happened right after that fight). He expectedly gets thrashed and humiliated in front of everyone. Then, the King tells the Harem they lost their power as (Sword/Magic/etc.) Princesses because their power came from the Hero. And now, they would be punished by serving as commanders in the worst possible castle that borders directly with Demon territory.

They reluctantly agree, but Mina says she quits. She also asks for a private conversation with the protagonist. There, she apologizes for what she did, for betraying him like that. The protagonist does a mega jebait, saying he loved her very much, and his heart was devoted to her, but then, as expected, says that his heart was broken by her, and it would never mend. He overcame the pain, but he'd never forgive her. She cries and runs. The end. No, seriously, that's the ending.

Don’t judge it for its NTR tag; the story has decent plot and great character development. Pretty entertaining and good enough to pass the time.

DO not rate this novel one star prematurely. I know it is hard for others to read ntr, but pls give this novel a chance. It will only take you a few minutes to finish this novel and I assure you, once you get past that ntr part, you will realize that this novel is worth your time.

I myself am an ntr lover. I've been reading dark ntr for a while but after reading finishing this novel, I finally found the light.

Great story, written from the perspective of a native... more>> whose sweetheart got stolen by an otherworlder, a character typical to your mainstream summoned hero MC.

Great romance and real emotions. After finishing the story, I gave it 5 star. *Seems like I wont be reading ntr for a long time. <<less

Read the raws, Its a short novel about 14 chapters. Its your cookie cutter NTR to Netori payback novel but I won't lie that this novel tugged at my emotions in certain parts. Like the movie 5 centimeters per second. I think its interesting that this novel doesn't give the Protagonist some BS OP power to get his revenge but its relatively normal. Shame too, I think this novel has a lot of potential but alas its short so a lot of Characters, Lack of world building, Relationships, etc feels... more>> tacked on.

Ultimately I thought it was an entertaining read to past the time since its extremely short plus I got an ending that ended in a high note and something to think about for a bit so its a +1. <<less

I think the stories like "That Person, Later on" on premises when his childhood friend who swore on marriage after come back from exterminating demon lord, get stollen in front of him..

But what is different are the protagonist on this novel taking revenged road, on another novel just running away denied the fate and become strong..

After reading the title, it seemed to be something different than what I normally see being translated. As someone who generally avoids NTR, a combination of morbid curiosity and the raw's rather short length compelled me to give it a chance.

The series is exactly what the title says and gives the reader a sense of catharsis after a good deal of build-up.

The protagonist has his promised love taken by a summoned hero who uses underhanded tactics to get what he wants. To get his revenge, the protagonist decides to steal... more>> the summoned hero's promised fiancé.

What separates this from other stories is how straightforward the protagonist and antagonist create relationships with the people around them.

The protagonist is understanding of others, focused on his goals, and wears his heart on his sleeve. Because of that, the characters around the protagonist are sympathetic to his circumstances and choose to aid him. Though he is crafty at times and is not always truthful, he is generally honest with his intentions. Although he returns the kindness others give to him, the protagonist is rather vindictive and merciless to his enemy.

The antagonist, the hero, is much more reserved with his true goals and is focused on how he wants others to see him. To the women he takes an interest to, the hero manipulates the circumstances so that they view him as the typical knight in shining armor. However, to everyone else he is seen as arrogant and rude. The hero is willing to take desperate actions to protect the image he has on those he is interested in. <<less

Same vibe as Sono Mono Nochi Ni but this one focused more on his revenge. At first, the title gave me an impression that this is gonna be some usual NTR with mature contents but after reading the first translated chapters, I find the short novel interesting. Even more so after skimming the raws.

It started as an NTR, which became the 'unimportant' mc's drive to turn the story into netori.

Netorare and related stuff may have left bitter feelings because usually, the MCs are losers and powerless. However, this novel has... more>> an 'underestimated protagonist'. Give it a chance.

Would have rated it 5 stars if there's more story into it because 14 chaps are so short. <<less

I have read the raws. I really didn't understand much but just got the gist of the story. I find the MC as a flawed character and I like it because I could relate a bit. Overall I find it a refreshing short story to read (In my case I just skimmed through it lol). I hope the translators will finish translating this story. I'm waiting for it to be translated to english so that I could understand what gibberish I have read when I MTL'ed. Hehe

Don't judge it immediately by the NTR content, the novel is pretty satisfying probably due to the Netori Revenge which actually turns into a sweet romantic relationship.

The Hero is a giant douche who tricks his Harem members (including the Childhood Friend and his Fiancee) by putting them under artificial danger behind the scenes and then saving them from it and well, playing the Hero afterwards. The Childhood Friend immediately jumps on his dick.

It's not that long, only 14 chapters (sadly just 6ch translated, I've read the rest with MTL). The... more>> big revenge plus ending payoff was pretty satisfying.

The Message in the last chapter was also a nice touch. <<less

Giving it a shot even though I usually get sick from NTR stories. It's an interesting take on a shitty hero stealing the childhood friend however instead of running away and getting OP (that op beta to the last few chapters), the MC decides to NTR the hero and give him a taste of his own medicine. Hopefully the author and the translator will do regular releases.

Surprisingly, this story is actually light. Well it's short after all, but after reading this, the NTR seems like just a plot for a heartwarming romance. This is why it's good, and the ending really brought closure to the MC and his childhood friend relationship, so I'm satisfied.

The story is really different than what I expected. MC don't have some kind of powers, he's not really that much cunning, and there are good people around him.

That said, even if it's short, the details of actions regarding our MC's plot is... more>> kinda lackluster. I give this 4.3/5.0 for that reason, though it won't change the fact that this is a good short story. <<less

it's true it's start with NTR it's true the story is mostly how MC live in hatred but at the same time MC thingking how to get back his pride not simple revenge like killing or steall all of rival girl so rival depressed and su*cide... no.

for me this novel have the best ending for revenge story and no novel have such a statisfying revenge feeling, why? mmm.... in people eye someone who love this kind of revenge end they call it "edgelord" because it is revenge in all aspect... more>> mind, body, soul, glory, people acknowledgment not just kill which most of the time some people still praise rival&hate rival the same for MC some hate&some praise. as for this story it is not!! 100% get back his pride!! pride know!! not jus get back with humilate rival. so in this story

Spoiler

MC get back his pride, from a low level human being, he become splendid human being

as for the hero, his harem and MC childhood sweetheart they become commoner where their name forgotten

MC childhood sweetheart become nun. not married

the hero lose all his power and become army of country. not married

hero companion become concubine of other. the other one not married missing

and especially childhood sweetheart live in regret become nun but MC don't care even after she send letter "I'm sorry" "good bye" MC don't care and let go all feel for her completly where most story I meet either kill them all without care how MC seen by other or try to get back cultivate feel.... euuuh.

[collapse]

the only draw back this kind of story doesn't fit to have many chapter.

Spoiler

this is just rumbling for "that person, later on...

it is totally different, in that story MC steal other fiancee and after that he leave her with her countryman roam the world pick new girl and forget that girl... that story is t***h! he don't have right to revenge isntead he should live in regret.

there is only one other story have the same kind of revenge end it is a korea manhwa "my kingdom (silent war) "

if you know a revenge story with the same revenge vibe of this story, please pm me, I want to read but can not find it, it doesn't matter if it isn't in english. thank you

First 4 chapters are full of emotions. After that plot becomes boring. Still what happened in those 4 chapters really did affect me and made me remember those events for a long time
