In a world where dragons and magic have faded into legend, powerful Constellations grant skills to contracted humans and rule through their chosen Players. They are the gods of this age. Distant. Demanding. Unquestionable. Humanity survives at their whim, and the Players who serve them reap the rewards.
One man sought only to live quietly. He had done his fighting. He had earned his peace. He wanted nothing more than to be left alone, to fade into obscurity, to let the world spin without him.
But the Constellations crossed a line they should never have crossed.
Now the last Sword Master, the one who protected humanity for centuries, must take up his sword once again. He cannot fight the Constellations alone. Their power is too great. Their reach is too vast.
So he does the unthinkable. He joins forces with humanity’s greatest enemies, the Seven Princesses of the Demonic Cult. The same cult that has terrorized the world for generations. The same cult he was once sworn to destroy.
The enemy of my enemy is my ally. Even when that enemy has claws and fangs and a throne built from human bones.
The last Sword Master who protected humanity for centuries must take up his sword once again and fight for the fate of mankind. This time, he will not fight alone. This time, he will fight with monsters beside him.
Can a man who wanted peace become the weapon the world needs, even if it means allying with the very evil he once swore to destroy?
