Madan no Ou to Vanadis

Zhcted invades neighboring Brune under the command of Eleonora Viltaria, one of seven Vanadis who rule the kingdom's territories and wield legendary dragon weapons. Brune's army is crushed, leaving young noble Tigrevurmud Vorn with little more than his extraordinary skill as an archer.

Instead of killing him, Eleonora takes Tigre prisoner and tells him to serve her. He initially resists, but corruption among Brune's nobles and a threat to his homeland of Alsace force him to reconsider who his real enemies are. The captive soon becomes a commander fighting beside a Vanadis, and his alliances and battlefield decisions begin shaping a conflict that could redraw the borders of entire kingdoms.
