I kept my promise. Now you must keep yours, My Lady.
The Astel family of the East and the Helezna family of the West waged war over territory. As the noble allies of both families joined the fray, the Empire fell into utter chaos. However, at that very moment... A hero appeared. A man with unique hair, its tips dyed a vibrant pink. With every swing of his blade, hundreds of enemies fell, and through his strength alone, the war was brought to an end. Despite the victory, the Empire suffered immense damage. The man donated his own wealth to the Empire, single-handedly saving the nation. His original status as a slave mattered not; to the people, his humble beginnings only added to his legend.
