Star Embracing Swordmaster / 별을 품은 검사 / Seong-eul Pumeun Geomsa

Schoarra was supposed to be the bright, bustling Lighthouse of the North, a beacon of trade and prosperity. But beneath the polished facade lies a rotting core of slums controlled by five brutal crime lords. For an orphan like Vlad, life is just a series of survival games in the shadows of a local brothel. That is, until a disgraced knight tears his world apart, leaving nothing but carnage in his wake.

In a moment that changes everything, Vlad trades his chains for a blade. But this is no ordinary steel. Bound to a sentient sword that whispers ancient secrets and lethal wisdom, Vlad embarks on a dangerous climb from gutter-rat to elite warrior. Pledging his life to the formidable House Vayezid, he dives headfirst into a world of high-stakes political intrigue, cutthroat combat, and a quest for power that demands he carve his own path through the chaos. Whether he becomes a hero or a monster, the stars have already decided his fate. Witness the rise of a legend forged in blood and steel.
