Nejimaki Seirei Senki: Tenkyou no Alderamin

The Katvarna Empire is locked in a bitter, protracted war with the neighboring Republic of Kioka. Amid this escalating conflict lives Ikuta, a seventeen-year-old who despises the military and everything it represents. A self-proclaimed slacker with an insatiable fondness for women, he has no desire to fight or serve his nation. However, a chain of unforeseen circumstances forces him to reluctantly sit for the High Grade Military Officer Exam, dragging him into the very institution he loathes. What begins as an unwilling obligation soon transforms into an extraordinary journey. Despite his lazy demeanor and open disdain for warfare, Ikuta possesses a remarkably sharp mind that sets him apart from his peers. No one could have predicted that this reluctant young man would eventually rise through the ranks to earn the revered title of great commander. Thrust into a world consumed by violence and political strife, Ikuta relies entirely on his superior intellect to outmaneuver his enemies. Through cunning strategy rather than brute force, he navigates the treacherous battlefield, forging an unlikely legacy as one of the empire's most brilliant soldiers.
