Following the death of the emperor, the Astanian Empire plunged into chaos. His two sons both aiming for the throne caused a civil war that divided the empire. 


In the midst of this conflict, Alaric was forced into conscription. He later joined the crown prince’s army as a company commander. 


He led his 100-man army into battle, fiercely fighting with the hope of a better future. Unfortunately, he was just too weak to cause a ripple on the battlefield. 


A single arrow to the head shattered his hopes and he died without even a proper burial. 


Just when he thought that everything was over, he found himself back to his younger self with his memories intact.


Armed with his knowledge of the future and a system that awakened his dormant powers, Alaric began his journey to overcome his fated demise.

"My lord, I also made a scabbard for it using the remaining cold iron and some of the spare materials I had. You were gone for quite a while so I also asked a friend of mine to paint a design on it." Goran handed him a white scabbard with a golden dragon painting.

Sir Goran took a deep breath as he nodded. "I understand, my lord."
