Long ago, after losing most of their lands in a war against the demon race led by the Four Demon Kings, humanity divided the remaining territory into seven regions. Each was protected by one of the seven holy swords forged by the goddess who created mankind, serving as sacred guardians.

Countless imitation holy swords, modeled after the seven blades left by the goddess… Wielding these, humanity continues to live while fighting against the invading demons.

Those chosen by imitation holy swords are called holy swordsmen, trained in the arts of war and the blade at the Legendia Holy Sword Academy, the largest institution in the seven kingdoms, located in the Trabilia Kingdom.

Once, there was a legendary holy swordsman known as the Holy Sword King, Edward Tilayur. Among his descendants was a boy named Roy… who possessed no talent for the sword whatsoever, not even capable of a proper swing—a hopeless failure.

Yet, Roy refused to give up. For the sake of his childhood friend, Eleanor, with whom he vowed to become a holy swordsman together. But—Roy remained a failure. He kept losing even to Eleanor, who started training later than him, and his father never stopped calling him “useless.”

Still unable to abandon his dream of becoming a holy swordsman… he participates in the annual Holy Sword Selection Ceremony.

Here, he would obtain an imitation holy sword suited to him. If he could just get a holy sword, he could become a holy swordsman.

But at the ceremony… what Roy obtained was a crude wooden sword.

A mere wooden blade, known as the “Holy Sword of No Killing.”

Meanwhile, his childhood friend Eleanor was chosen by… one of the seven holy swords, long without a wielder—the Flame Holy Sword, Phoenixia.

Roy was on the verge of giving up his dream.

Then, one day…

“Guess I’ll go hunting…”

Hunting was both a necessity for survival and Roy’s hobby.

Though it was just shooting prey with a bow… what Roy demonstrated was a godlike archery skill—striking vital points from kilometers away with pinpoint accuracy.

In a world where holy swords are supreme, a boy wields a bow with divine mastery.

He couldn’t become a holy swordsman. But… he could become something greater.

“Huh?”

Recognizing Roy’s worth, the crude wooden sword—dubbed the Holy Sword of No Killing—unleashed its true power. It was the Fifth Demon King, feared even by the Four Demon Kings who once nearly brought humanity to ruin.

This is the story of a boy who wanted to be a holy swordsman but was loved by the bow—and the strongest, most wicked Demon King, sealed away by the Four Demon Kings—saving the world.
