5-nin no Ou

In the realm of Jebron, absolute power is held by the Five Kings, divine rulers born directly from the blood of a god. Within this harsh society lives Sage, a resilient young orphan devoted to protecting his vulnerable younger sister, Hoshimi. Carrying a heavy burden, Hoshimi possesses sacred powers inherited from the gods, making her a target in a world driven by ruthless authority. Desperate to keep her safe from impending peril, Sage bravely risks his own life by stepping directly into the path of the cruel and arrogant Blue King. During this dangerous gamble, an unexpected twist of fate leads Sage to cross paths with Gules, the Red King. Unlike the tyrannical Blue King, Gules is remarkably kind and deeply sympathetic, awakening unfamiliar emotions and a glimmer of hope within Sage. However, this fragile encounter threatens to shatter the precarious balance surrounding them. Because Sage is legally bound to the Blue King as property, the ruler perceives this newfound connection with Gules as an intolerable insult, setting the stage for a tense conflict of pride, power, and survival.
