Mars, the first prince of the Kingdom of Falun, fears being assassinated. Since his food is highly likely to contain poison, he spends his days hunting monsters in the forest outside the castle and eating their meat to stave off hunger. One night, a beautiful red-haired woman carrying a large sword appears before Mars and tells him, “You have great prospects; become my disciple.” Because of a single misunderstanding, a boy becomes the strongest king (even though he never wanted to).
