Born with glowing green eyes. Destined for rotten luck. Peasant girl Meya Hild was 'given' the opportunity to become a Lady. At swordpoint. By mercenaries. Engaged to a dying nobleman. Poisoned with one month to live. Tasked to loot a castle. In a kingdom running out of resources. Little did Meya know this shenanigan would lead her across land and over sea, from a mountain made of sapphire to an island shrouded in spiral clouds, with masquerades, heists, kidnappings, shipwrecks, alchemy, romance, and an unexpected 'bump' along the way. Let the misery begin. 🐉 🎯 PROGRESS: Book One (Chpt. 1 - 65): 100% Book Two (Chpt. 66 - 125): 100% Bingers, YOUR TIME HAS COMETH.

Samurai do not take the law in their own hands unlike vigilante and only protect certain people dubbed masters who are worthy of their protection. Unlike Heroes, Samurai have nothing to lose and will do whatever necessary, even if it means sacrificing everything. Book I - Heroes Don't Exist

Book I "There's no such thing as a hero. As far as I'm concerned, You shouldn't need some bullshit label to do the right thing." || Izanami Shi would stop at nothing to fulfill her vow. Stuck between what's right and what's wrong and bound by her own Bushido code, this rising hero would do whatever necessary for the greater good. Even if it meant sacrificing friends. Even if it meant sacrificing family. Even if it meant sacrificing love. Even if it meant...sacrificing her own life. Because she wasn't a hero. As far as she was concerned...Heroes don't exist. ~•~ [ #3 in bokunoheroacademia] [#1 in bokunohero] [#1 in shoto] [#1 in bakugou]
