Summary

Seo Han, an orphan raised by the humble wanderer No Geul-gae, has lived his entire life in the shadows. To earn enough money to give his guardian a proper funeral, he joins Samra Jeon, a ruthless organization of assassins. But when he is ordered to kill a young woman who once shared a meal with him in childhood—a tiny act of kindness he never forgot—Seo Han chooses betrayal over blind obedience.

Hunted and with nowhere to turn, he encounters Chang Hae-ryu, a notorious master whose very name strikes fear in the martial world. Under his tutelage, Seo Han begins to forge his own path, sharpening both his skills and his convictions.

As he wanders, allies and enemies alike are drawn to him, their fates intertwining around the mysterious Yeongrongak, the central sect of the righteous factions. There, Seo Han uncovers a vast conspiracy capable of shaking the entire martial world to its core.

With darkness spreading and great evil rising, Seo Han stands at the heart of the turmoil. Together with the companions he gathers along the way, he must rely on every skill, every lesson, and every ounce of will he has honed throughout his life. The final battle is not just for survival—it’s for the fate of the entire world of martial arts.
