About

The Kingdom of Varus has grown powerful through long years of war. Among the various noble houses within it, the House of Urpus, which carries the blood of pure wolves, was the strongest. As strong as they are, they possess a long history. Having risen to fame since the founding of the Varus Kingdom, they are essentially living fossils. Magic, swordsmanship, knowledge—there was nothing they could not master. Pentile, the eldest son of that house, was a man of immense talent who performed everything perfectly. With those skills, he rose to the position of Grand Knight of the Varus Kingdom. There was no defeat on the battlefields where he stood, and this latest war was no different. The King bestowed a reward upon him for leading the difficult campaign. Expecting it to be treasure or land again, he was greatly taken aback by the unexpected gift. "Marry my youngest daughter." ...The youngest daughter? That illegitimate child? ...He wanted to refuse. However, the King forced the two into marriage. Pentile had no choice but to obey the King's command, but he did not recognize her as his companion. He ignored her at every turn and looked at her with eyes full of contempt whenever they crossed paths. Verbal abuse was his baseline, and if she talked back or displeased him, he would resort to slight physical violence. **"...Die on your own, or die slowly in my hands. The choice is yours."**
