Takeshi Arisu

In this world the line between survival and morality is blurred, a realm shaped by political intrigue, power struggles, and ancient traditions. This world is dominated by vast, sprawling empires, each vying for control over territories rich in resources and strategic value. The imperial cities are grand yet suffocating, with towering palaces and ornate temples that symbolize the iron grip of the ruling class. The common people live under the shadow of these mighty empires, their lives dictated by the whims of nobility and the ever-present threat of war. In this world, assassins like Takeshi are both feared and revered, operating in the shadows, hired by those who wish to eliminate their rivals or protect their secrets. The art of assassination is honed to perfection, with entire schools dedicated to training individuals from childhood, teaching them not only the skills of killing but also the philosophies that justify their existence.
