Summary

"Argonaut"
A story set in the early days of the Ancient Times, when the grace of the Gods, the falna, did not exist.
The heroic tale of a man that is still passed down as numerous tales. Among the heroes of all generations, he is an overwhelmingly weak and incompetent hero. However, some call him the "Hero of the Beginning".
Why is Argonaut called the "Hero of the Beginning"?

This is the story of a certain ridiculous man.
The story of a clown who had inappropriate aspirations, was at the mercy of numerous schemes, and still persisted as a fool.

So, let the comedy begin.
