About

Estellia is an empire where the class system is extremely prevalent. The social status determined at birth is so firm that it is said it will not change until a revolution occurs. Clothing, education level, occupation, social advancement, and even freedom are determined by status. Currently, the one on the imperial throne is Kairos Argent, the emperor who discriminates by status the most in history and feels the greatest sense of superiority in the imperial family. During the 10 years of his reign, the lives of the people have become even more impoverished, but the adults who have lived under the class system for a long time simply regard this as the will of the stars. It was Lucian Berg, a knight of commoner origin, who began to shake this empire. His vow to be loyal to the country as a knight was broken in just two days of knightly life. Differential treatment, and pay that was inversely proportional to effort. Voices of dissatisfaction were already rampant among the young people. Shield Fellowship—on the surface, it was just a small social club for knights. When training was over, they went to the stables or a lakeshore to eat dried fish. The stories exchanged there were not trivial matters, however. Shield Fellowship, the Imperial Knights, a gathering of young people. There, plans to risk their lives to straighten the crooked empire were exchanged. That spark spread and spread, reaching knights in other territories. Most of the knights were young and shared the same goal. The nobles were arrogant. Under the limitations of status, they believed their knights always had to remain loyal to preserve their lives. The knights moved, and there was nothing that could stop the movement of those who were trained.
