Description
“Hey Fake. I don’t need you anymore, so can you quit?” Immediately after defeating the Demon King, Seti, the fake hero, was suddenly fired by the real hero.He was active mainly in combat, taking the place of the hero whenever he had to. The hero is also a prince of the Holy Land, and he is supposed to marry his four beautiful fiancées, who are also members of his party, after defeating the Demon King.Therefore, Seti, whom he had secretly hired, seemed to be nothing but an obstacle. Although he knew of the hero’s ulterior motive, Seti readily accepted his dismissal. “Good, and while we’re at it, let’s quit the assassination ring and be truly free!” Yes. At this time, the hero made two mistakes. The first was that he had hired Seti without knowing that he was a top-class assassin who belonged to an assassination organization that reigned supreme in the underworld throughout the continent. The other was that the four fiancées had long been aware of the impostor’s existence. “I am breaking off my engagement with you as of this moment!” Sure enough, all of the fiancées left the heroes and went after Seti, who was really in favor of them.

My Thoughts on Dismissed as a Fake Hero, the Best Assassin Aims for a Slow Life~at That Time, His Fellow Teammates Who Are Fiancées Had Given Up on the Real Hero and Followed Him
Alright, buckle up, because this title is a mouthful! "Dismissed as a Fake Hero, the Best Assassin Aims for a Slow Life~at That Time, His Fellow Teammates Who Are Fiancées Had Given Up on the Real Hero and Followed Him" definitely sets the stage. I went in expecting a pretty standard betrayal-turned-harem-slice-of-life story, and while it does hit some familiar beats, there are a few things that stood out.
First Impressions
My initial reaction was a mix of amusement and slight skepticism. The premise is definitely intriguing – a supposed "fake hero" who's actually a top-tier assassin, aiming for a peaceful life after being wronged. The "fiancées giving up on the real hero" part definitely piqued my interest. I wondered how well it would be executed.
What Works Well
What I appreciated most was the protagonist's… lethality. He's an assassin, and he acts like one. I was happy to see that the author didn't shy away from the MC using his skills for the greater good, especially when facing genuinely evil characters. This was a refreshing change from the usual "reluctant killer" trope, and it made his desire for a slow life feel more earned. I found myself rooting for him to find his peace. The comedic undertones also land well, preventing the darker aspects of his past from becoming too overwhelming. The "kind love interests" are also a plus, adding a heartwarming element to the story.
Areas of Concern
While the MC's character is a strong point, some elements of the plot felt a bit generic. I think that while the premise is interesting, it does fall into some familiar traps, such as the "misunderstandings" trope. I think the plot could have benefitted from a few more twists, and less reliance on some of the well-worn tropes of the genre.
Final Verdict
Overall, "Dismissed as a Fake Hero, the Best Assassin Aims for a Slow Life~at That Time, His Fellow Teammates Who Are Fiancées Had Given Up on the Real Hero and Followed Him" is a decent read. It's not groundbreaking, but the MC's pragmatism and the promise of a fulfilling slow life make it enjoyable. If you're looking for a fantasy story with action, romance, and a protagonist who isn't afraid to get his hands dirty, this might be worth checking out. Just be prepared for some familiar tropes along the way.
