Synopsis for The Banished Former Hero Lives as He Pleases

The story takes place in a world where powerful “blessings and gifts from the gods” are given to those who have reached adulthood, and the “gifts” a person receives will determine their life. But Allen was unable to obtain any power, therefore he was ridiculed and despised and eventually exiled from his home. He decides to live a life of peace in a remote land. But what people don't know is that Allen has memories (and powers) from his past life as a hero.
