Chronicle of the Holy Kings: Oath of Ashes

He is the son of a blacksmith from Greystone Village. He has no prominent bloodline or dazzling talents. The only thing he has is a pair of hands that are calloused by blacksmithing, and a habit of never breaking his promise. "Do what you say." This was the only thing Kelce Krause believed in until he was sixteen. Until his father fell under the knife of a rogue bandit, until he stood in front of his mother holding the broken sword without an edge - he made the first vow in his life, and a gray light bloomed in his palm. That's the power of knights. It is the power of the oath. A down-and-out old knight took him away from his hometown. From squire to knight, from border beacons to kingdom battles, from an unknown boy to the "Grey Stone Shield" that terrifies the enemy - step by step, he climbed to a height that even nobles looked up to. But he discovered that the world was far more complicated than he imagined. The empire's iron hoof moved southward, the abyss in the north was wide open, and the holy Holy See hid hidden darkness. However, the elf girl wearing glasses beside him always said words in a serious tone that made his ears red. "The purity of your Seal is illogical. Continuous observation is required." "... Can you speak human language?" "This is human language. I understand your human language very well." War is raging across the continent, and conspiracies are secretly surging. When his name was dubbed "Heavenly Oracle", when everyone was asking how far he could go—— Kelce Kraus only knows one thing: Every vow he made has yet to be fulfilled. And he is a man who does what he says. Even if it costs everything.
