Bagwis Batumbangkaw, fourth son of a prestigious clan, was supposed to lead a life of luxury—except for one tiny problem: he didn’t inherit the family’s magical bloodline. After being kicked out and dying a thoroughly unimpressive death, he somehow gets a second chance at life, and this time, he’s got a plan.
Step one: trick people into thinking he's a noble, righteous adventurer.
Step two: assemble a band of misfits dumb enough to follow him.
Step three: take over the world—or at least a few dungeons and a tavern or two.
Armed with sarcasm, cunning, and a whole lot of bad luck, Bagwis is determined to rise to power. He just has to make sure no one finds out he's scheming behind that innocent smile or that he’s woefully underqualified for well.............everything.
