For ten long years, Ricky tended peaceful flocks on the pastoral plains of Hyden, only to spend the subsequent decade wading through visceral slaughter on blood-soaked battlefields until he was known as a peerless assassin of steel. Having lived an agonizing lifetime stained with smoke, screams, and severed lives, the exhausted swordsman met his lonely demise upon a desolate plain, questioning whether there was ever any purpose to the bloodshed he wrought. Miraculously, he reawakens a century later, reborn as the third son of a noble house in a world that has finally known peace.
Unwilling to let past horrors define his second chance, Ricky enrolls in a prestigious continental academy under an assumed identity to discover the true value of life beyond the battlefield. However, peaceful times cannot conceal old grievances and encroaching shadowy plots that threaten to shatter the fragile era. Drawing his blade not as a remorseless instrument of slaughter but as a guardian of hard-won hope, the reborn warrior sings a brand new ballad of honor, redemption, and peerless mastery.
