A mostly ordinary young man from a regular small town in a peaceful country has always had a penchant for pinching other people’s pendants. Other valuables, too, of course.

When he finally receives his Blessing, that interest, a quick revenge, and a mysterious necklace propels Lu inte a world much wider than he could have ever thought.

Lu clung to the top of his tree with one hand while he tried to find a way out. But he was surrounded. His opponents also closed up behind him, sealing his escape. He was too tired to fight an entire army, even if they were all soldiers who didn't know about essence condensation.
