Crow Titus is the greatest hero in the land. He’s gallant, brave, and adored by all—the perfect warrior. Or he would be if not for one minor detail: it’s all an act! He’d like nothing more than to take it easy and live a quiet life, preferably with an above-average girlfriend and a significant amount of wealth. Unfortunately, his cursed blade takes control of his body in its quest for its favorite meal—souls. But thankfully, it prefers to feast on the wicked. So in order to keep his curse a secret (and his sword satiated), Crow must keep up the act as a hero and slay the dangerous aetherborn that have been plaguing humanity for a thousand years. Otherwise, his sword might turn its hunger on the innocent and turn Crow into a mass murderer!

Seeking to keep his curse hidden, Crow finds himself in one imbroglio after another. His bullshitting has somehow earned everyone’s respect and adoration, and they all mistakenly believe he’s a “myth conqueror”—someone who can freely command cursed arms. Now Crow’s antics have landed him in a precarious situation. For one thing, he’s on the radar of the evil organization Wanpurgis. Even worse, the king has personally ordered him to hunt down and kill a dragon—the strongest kind of aetherborn—alone. Armed with his cursed blade (or is it armed with him?) and a new ensemble of other weapons hellbent on making his life a living nightmare, he sets off to fulfill this impossible mission and maybe—just maybe—not die horribly.
