Fei Ning had never accomplished glorious deeds, nor was he a Merit Knight—an Imperial hero wreathed in a dazzling halo.
He was simply an Earth Knight in this vast Empire, one who had served in a Main Battle Corps before retiring to join a Mercenary Corps. His experiences and ordinary life were an epitome of the hundreds of thousands of retired Knights.

Abyssal Divine Chosen One.
His sublime courage earned the gaze of the Radiant Divine Emperor.

With the mortal body of an Official Knight, he had obliterated an Abyssal Great Demon's head with a single punch.
They were born leaders, waymarks guiding the Empire toward a greater future, the Imperial's Sword against powerful foes.
