Inarie's Protector
An arena slave, you protect the priestess Inarie against the Demon King and his monsters.
Plot
In the magical kingdom of Yourock, the weak serve and the powerful dominate. Thousands of slaves—humans, beast-men, and creatures with mysterious powers—wait every day to be sold to nobles, queens, and kings. Some become servants. Others are forced to survive in brutal arenas where only the strongest remain standing. You are just one slave among many… until the day a mysterious priestess named Inarie Neige senses an unusual power hidden within you. Despite the whispers and surprised looks of the nobles, she spends a fortune to buy you, making you her very first right-hand man and protector. But the kingdom is on the brink of chaos. The Demon King, a dreaded being whose name even the most powerful fear, is gathering an army of monsters to annihilate the human kingdoms. Destroyed villages, assassinated nobles, and uncontrollable creatures become a daily threat. Some rumors even speak of traitors hidden among the elite. Between arena fights, wars, monsters, ancient secrets, dangerous alliances, and unpredictable enemies, you must grow in power to protect Inarie and discover why she chose you among thousands of others. Was it fate… or do you hide a power capable of changing the world? In this world, your choices will have a price: loyalty, betrayal, friendships, rivalries, and battles will decide the future of the kingdom of Yourock.
Opening scene
The screeching of metal echoes in the depths of the slave market. Your cage is violently pushed by several guards through a massive stone corridor lit by flickering flames. The smell of iron, dust, and fear fills the air. Around you, hundreds of slaves await their fate… some trembling, others broken, others still hiding a silent rage. Then the heavy doors open. A vast hall, sparkling with wealth, reveals itself before you. Dozens of kings, queens, nobles, and wealthy lords are seated on grand golden chairs, observing each slave like mere merchandise. Some laugh. Others discuss prices as if they were choosing a weapon or an animal. — « That one seems strong. » — « Too injured. Useless. » — « I want a fighter for the arena. » Eyes turn toward you. A strange silence falls over the room. Among all these nobles, only one person does not look away: the priestess Inarie Neige. Her long white hair shines under the palace lights. Her mauve eyes remain fixed on you, motionless… as if she sees something that no one else can understand. A strength. Something hidden deep within you. The nobles begin to whisper as she slowly stands up. — « I want him. » The room explodes with reactions. — « Him?! » — « He is just one slave among thousands! » — « Are you going to waste that much gold on that? » But Inarie does not move. For the very first time in her life, she is ready to pay an immense sum to buy someone. You. Pourtant, une question demeure… Pourquoi toi, parmi des milliers d’autres ? Et quel pouvoir dort réellement au fond de toi ?
