Lin Che’s bad luck had always been remarkably consistent. He ran a fever during exams, got stuck in traffic on interview day, never won a prize draw, and was even hit by an out-of-control car on his way home from work.

Still, he was lucky once before he died: he saved a little girl.

When he opened his eyes again, he had become an abandoned infant in another world. Taken in by a frontier baron and raised in the warm little territory of Green Valley, he was given a new name—Leon Klein.

Leon only wanted to grow up peacefully. He had loving adoptive parents, an overly attached older sister, warm meals, and a sword to train with. For the first time, life seemed normal.

Then noble schemes, shadows on the frontier, and the attention of ancient races began finding him one after another.

“I just want to live properly. Why does everything always turn out like this?”

Years later, people would call him a knight, a lord, and a king.

Only Leon knew that there had always been something terribly wrong with his luck.
