Upon returning to Gray Neighbor, Matthew and his companions are met with the unexpected scene of residents celebrating the Founding Festival. When they'd left, the city had been threatened by an impending stampede in the dungeon and the machinations of the sun god's preachers. The revelry makes it seem as though such concerns never existed at all. In this city full of corruption, citizens are usually indifferent to the plight of their fellow people. However, Arwin is willing to do whatever is necessary to resolve the situation...even if the plan isn't their best.

HE’LL PROTECT HER SECRETS BY ANY MEANS NECESSARY… The Dungeon City is a wicked place filled with crime, debauchery, and death. Its one shining light is Arwin, the beautiful Crimson Princess Knight. She and her brave party of adventurers descend into the dungeon at the city’s center, seeking a legendary treasure with the power to rebuild the princess’s fallen kingdom. Many yearn to be by her side, but that spot is already taken by Matthew, a man despised by all in town as a cowardly weakling. Everyone thinks he is scum who just spends her hard-earned money on booze, women, and gambling. No one in the city”not even the princess knight” knows what Matthew is truly capable of.
