Despite his past aspirations of becoming a master swordsman, he believes those days are behind him. However, his life takes an unexpected turn when a renowned former student visits him with astonishing news: he has been appointed as a special instructor for the knights of the Liberion Order.
This new role takes Beryl to the capital, where he reconnects with former students who have become elite knights, a top-tier wizard, and even a highly ranked adventurer. Baffled by their desire for his guidance, Beryl questions his ability to fulfill his new position and whether he will ever find peace from his devoted students.
