The immortal girl Clarisse Gloria, having witnessed the birth of the new Beast King, returns to her headquarters, 'Glorious'. But there is no time to rest. Their next challenge is building a fort to counter the human race that had been scheming in the shadows of the Beast King's succession—preparing for the next battle. Meanwhile, in the Tiant territory of the Royce Kingdom, the spark sown by the 'Prodigal Prince' was spreading quietly but surely. The flames of conspiracy, which engulfed even the Healing Saint Misetta, eventually set Glorious as their target. Appearing amidst the fort's construction is Laps Kruger, the Lion Princess and daughter of the previous Beast King Randall. A red-haired knight trying to clear the magical forest and invade the beastmen's territory. A female Alv throwing herself into the battlefield with hatred for beastmen in her heart. And a blonde boy knight drafted as the Saint's bodyguard for a single promise. As various motives, grudges, loyalty, and obsessions intersect, the immortal girl steps into the center of the battlefield once again. Clashing over the fort are the ambitions of nations, the pride of races, and the unyielding emotions of individuals. What will Clarisse witness at the end of this war where violence and conspiracy are intricately intertwined? <> Momonga Iris: A virtual flying squirrel acting as a rodent that writes novels.
