The Ardrasia Empire, located on the continent of Vogel.

In this empire, which possesses formidable military power and vast territories, a conflict was brewing over the imperial throne.

While the crown prince remained undecided, and the emperor's children vied for power through various means, there was one prince widely regarded as someone who would never become emperor.

The Seventh Prince, Arnold Lakes Adler. He was a boy mocked as "the dreg prince," having had everything taken by his twin younger brother.

Incompetent and listless. Arnold, a profligate prince who spent his days idly, secretly possessed another identity: Silver, one of only five SS-rank adventurers on the continent.

However, upon witnessing the intensifying struggle for the imperial throne, Arnold makes a certain decision.

"I don't want to die, so I guess I'll make my brother emperor..."

This is the chaotic tale of a prince's secret maneuvers, a prince who couldn't care less about the imperial throne.
