When people talked about the strongest fighters on the Astralis continent, certain names always came up first.
The family heads of the eight great houses and the Eight Heroes of Astralis were the most famous. Among the current Eight Heroes, there was one man who stood out—the Mercenary King Kapali.
He was famous because he'd risen to that position as a commoner, with no connections to any of the eight houses. He was a legend in the mercenary world.
Kapali had brought all the scattered mercenary groups under his control and turned the Mercenary Guild from a simple job posting board into an organization that could compete with the great houses themselves.
He was truly a great man.
But even before the rise of the Mercenary King, there had been another man who took the mercenary world by storm.
One man, thousand arms—Martial King Hobbren Corvalis!
