Monarch Of Darkness Arsene

Born into the most prestigious clan of sword masters, I was destined to become a legend. My father believed I would be his prodigy, training me relentlessly to awaken my Hakana — the power that defines a true master. My family had high expectations. My friends believed I would be the next mighty warrior. But everything shattered when my father was betrayed — murdered by his closest friend, who stole the power meant to be mine. Stripped of my birthright, cast aside as a nobody, I must now claw my way back from nothing. I will challenge the strongest masters, slay the demons in my path, and reclaim the power that was stolen from me. But as blood stains my hands and the darkness creeps into my soul, I must ask myself: Will I rise as the hero I was born to be? Or will I fall... and become the Demon Slayer I was never meant to be?

The Land of Seppora is a beautiful lush place, teeming with life and magic. It lies at the heart of Tempora, a world created and sustained by magic and nature. This is how Seppora looks, at least from the outside. The leadership structure of Seppora is however rife with corruption and injustice. The powerful are treated as gods and the poor are treated as trash, at the mercy of the aristocracy. A band of misfits known as Lux Libera aims to change the narrative for the better, at least on a small scale. But there is something deeper and more sinister that awaits them. Soon they begin to piece everything together. Attacks on innocent villages and capture of thousands who are never heard from again, The Solarian Temple's clampdown on non-conforming mages, and the Imperium's blind eye to the shortcomings of its officials, all lead to a plot steeped in darkness, one which could spell the end of not just Seppora but Tempora itself. Can 5 people with twisted pasts whose paths somehow align be able to stop this abomination?
