Ikta successfully executes a bold strategy to cross the Kioka border and deliver the princess back to her home. As a consequence of this achievement, he is granted a reward in the form of the title Imperial Knight. This honor forces him into a conflict he deeply dislikes, requiring him to serve a government that lacks the desire to achieve victory. Additionally, Ikta develops a strong aversion toward the very princess he saved, creating a complex dynamic between his duty, his disdain for the war, and his feelings toward the royal figure he rescued.
