Unified for 560 Years――
King Karl of the Owen Alliance Kingdom, who rules over three nations, led a large army westward and attacked the Garland Trading Nation.
At this time, the sword master mercenary Shinker joined the fight on the Owen Kingdom’s side. Unfortunately, the battle ended in defeat. However, during his escape, he rescued a princess who had been accosted by rogues. Due to this achievement, he was promoted to a knight in the kingdom.
Using this as a stepping stone, he began to rise through the ranks. Sometimes employing dirty tactics to defeat enemies, he navigated the complexities of warfare unique to mercenaries and made rapid progress in his career.
Eventually, he found an opportunity to acquire a small domain… but the condition for obtaining this territory was to marry the daughter of the rebellious lord.
