After Picking up the Broken Sword, I Heard the Wishes of All Living Beings

[Western Fantasy Knight + Broken Sword Growth + Elf Contract + Group Epic + Slow-Warming Emotions] Lane, a young man from Quagmire Lane, gets a broken sword that no one wants to keep. The remnant soul of the Elf King sleeps in the sword. The broken edge of the sword can respond to the vegetation and allow him to hear the faintest wishes in the hearts of all living beings. The gentle and kind-hearted Ella possesses pure power enough to shake the ancient seal. When the Order of Shadows attacks Lower City, Ella is kidnapped and Ryan is slandered as a murderer. He could only hold the broken sword tightly, bear the wanted name and infamy, and set foot on the northern border full of wind, snow, conspiracy and shadow. The Church calls him a heretic, the nobles see him as a pawn, the elves want his sword back, and the orcs remember centuries of human betrayal. Farther away in the abyss of eternal night, the huge black dragon that once destroyed the continent is slowly awakening from the fear of all living beings. From the unknown swordsman in Quagmire Alley to the wish knight who protects the three tribes, Ryan gradually understands that the truly powerful thing is never the holy sword, but those who are in the darkness and still want to keep someone's wish. When dragon wings cover the sky, everyone is waiting for the hero. And what Ryan heard was the millions of hearts that remained unquenched under the ruins.
