*Thump!*

"To think I need to take care this useless nobody," said a guy with a full metal armor covering his body. He pushed a man off the carriage and spat on him.

"This is a result after a small viscount family offended the royal family as well as the Stargaze Marquis Family."

"It's just the usual fight for the throne, the losing side faces their extermination since they can't submit to the current king."

"The family was executed. I heard his parents beg the royal family to spare their only son."

"No one has ever heard anything about him. He doesn't excel in sword, magic, or even literature. The royal family is a sadist, ain't they? They exile this useless guy to the Demon Banner Army. He won't live long."

"Sssshh… We don't want anyone to hear that. Let's just leave right now since we've sent him here. Someone should pick him up later."

"Right."

After realizing they said something wrong, the two soldiers left in a haste, not wanting to deal with this matter anymore.

A skinny-looking youth with a handsome but tired face clenched the red-colored sword in his hand. He was Noel Ardagan, the only son of Viscount Ardagan.

'Just you wait. What you have thrown away will eventually come back to you.' Noel gritted his teeth and looked at the red colored sword in his hand, muttering in a low voice. "Father said the key of our family revival is in this sword and I need to get stronger first before heading to the former third prince."

Noel remembered the oath he took when he was a child. "I am Noel Ardagan. In front of the family heirloom I swore I shall become the master of Ardagan who everyone could be proud of."

*Kacha!*

A cracking sound echoed in his ears as his body trembled out of surprise. He widened his eyes and stared at this red sword with a dumbfounded expression.

A red light dimly glowed from the red jewel embedded on the sword's hilt before a blood colored aura flew to the back of his right palm as though it was a fluid.

"Wha—" Noel instinctively dropped the sword to the ground and pulled up his hand, not knowing what kind of substance had just come into his hand.

There was no pain spread in his hand, making it look harmless. But Noel couldn't be so sure.

He lowered his head and checked his hand, only to find a red colored cross appeared on his hand.

'What is this symbol?' Noel frowned, looking left and right wondering whether anyone saw what just happened. He didn't expect it to be this way, so he just took an oath there.

Luckily, the two soldiers dropped him two hundred meters from the town's gate and no one was around.

Curious, he touched the symbol with his forefinger. As if responding to his touch, the symbol let out a glowing light and projected a small translucent screen.
