From the “Defective Class” to the Strongest: The Second Main PV Depicts Elymas and Ruche’s Fierce Battles
The newly released second main PV depicts the journey of Elymas and Ruche toward becoming the “strongest,” even as they are scorned for belonging to the “defective class.” The video opens with Elymas’ striking line to Ruche: “I need you.” The two trust each other quickly upon meeting, despite the cold stares they receive from the other adventurers.
GoHands’ animation elevates the story alongside the theme songs, with characters racing freely across the screen, and the visual portrayal of Elymas and Ruche powering up as they activate their skills. A young man once branded a “defective class” carves out his path to the top.
