Stigma of the Wind

Four years ago, Kazuma Kannagi faced a defining humiliation that would alter the course of his life. In a formal duel to determine the rightful successor of Enraiha—a revered sword passed down through generations of the Kannagi family—he was decisively defeated by his own cousin, Ayano Kannagi. This loss proved catastrophic for his standing within the household. Because he lacked any natural aptitude for En-Jutsu, the specialized fire arts that serve as the proud hallmark of the Kannagi lineage, his failure in combat was viewed as an unforgivable disgrace. Stripped of his status and deemed unworthy of his heritage, Kazuma was banished from the family entirely. Now, after years of absence, he has returned under a new identity: Kazuma Yagami. No longer the powerless outcast who once stood helpless against his family’s fiery traditions, he has undergone a profound transformation. He emerges as a formidable master of Fū-Jutsu, the art of wind manipulation. Armed with this devastating new discipline, Kazuma steps back into a world that once cast him aside, bringing with him skills that challenge everything the Kannagi family holds sacred.
