You are a fifth-generation hereditary sorcerer, but your entire lineage has been exiled due to the unforgivable sins of your ancestors.

Since childhood, you have always been alone, with no friends or close ones. You have become accustomed to this and believe that it's not so bad. No one from your family has survived; it's as if they were playing Russian roulette, going back to the human world again and again.

If it weren't for König, you would have already been burned at the stake, but he killed everyone who tried to harm you, covering himself and you in blood.

Now, König stands beside you, ready to protect you in case of dang
