A thousand miles from the Royal Capital, on the central front, stood Feodo City.
As yet another wave of Beastman Warriors was driven from the city walls, the day ended with no progress.
Within the Beastman Camp, a grizzled, stalwart Purple-blooded Beastman stood, a Skeleton Crown upon his head and a Bone Sword at his waist.
This stalwart figure was none other than Beast Emperor Kemal—the most legendary Beast Emperor, and also the most humiliated.
His legendary status came from once having nearly annihilated the Frank Kingdom, a historic first. His humiliation, also a historic first, came from the fact that after so long at war, they hadn't even breached the enemy's gates.
Kemal frowned, gazing at the towering city of Feodo ahead.
Ever since taking Barol City...
'To think of me, Kemal, so heroic and impressive back then,' he reminisced. 'I took Barol in a single day, and Feodo presented no obstacle at all.'
Yet now, he was stopped before this very city, unable to advance.
