Ranking of Kings

Bojji is a deaf, powerless prince who cannot even wield a children's sword. As the firstborn son, he strives hard and dreams of becoming the world's greatest king. However, people mutter about him behind his back with “a good-for-nothing prince” and “no way he can be king”. Bojji is able to make his first ever friend, “Kage”, a literal shadow on the ground who somehow understands Bojji well. The story follows Bojji's coming of age as he meets various people in his life, starting with his fateful encounter with Kage.
