War struck the whole continent as the emperor of a nation filled with hungry beasts vowed to destroy humanity.

It seemed as though there wasn’t an end in sight to the mindless violence between the two nations until a group of people stood out from the rest of the humans to bring the constant fighting to a standstill.

The humans praised them for their efforts, and the beasts hated them for interfering in their war. Yet, there was nothing any of them could do to go against the power that they held.

Kalon Talvos was the illegitimate prince of an empire which was known for its strength and vicious brutality. Yet, he didn’t have a shred of that within him. At least on the surface.

The young prince lived his life without hatred and was oblivious to the dark forces moving behind his back until an encounter with a strange man changed his life forever. 

“There isn’t much time left. Trust in only yourself. Only you know the truth. Now reach out and bring this all to an end.”

“But what if I can’t? It hurts too much!”

“Then let me take over for a while. I can take the pain away.”

The Retribution of a Cursed Swordsman

Chapter 106: Hey, what did you get?

As the door slammed closed, Kalon dropped to the floor as the grip released from his shirt, and he hit the floor with a thud. He hurried back out of instinct but couldn't get to his feet as he looked up to see a wooden chair on the far side of the room.

'What in the world-' Kalon thought as a chill ran down his spine while the sounds of chains being dragged across the ground jingled behind him as its footsteps pounded along with it like a drum beating with each sound. Until the faint shadow of someone became visible out of the corner of his eyes.

Kalon was frozen. It felt as though he couldn't move as he saw a man with messy long dark hair that looked as black as night and went all the way down to his knees as chains wrapped their way around his legs which he dragged with each step until he sat down in the chair opposite Kalon.
