The Crownless Knight

Shamed bastard Edward clears mother Anna’s slander in knight trials. Trained by three Round Table masters, he wields Swordheart and a 2000-jin dark greatsword. He defeats Cain, rejects William’s blood hierarchy, reveals his overwhelming strength, abandons his crest, leaves his remorseful father, and creates merit-based knights as an uncrowned king.
