Arthur, the youngest Knight Protector of the Realm, uncovers a conspiracy involving the usurper princess Isabella and Queen Victoria. Framed for treason, stripped of his title, and condemned to a frontier slave mine for death-row prisoners, he is driven to the brink. There, his blood awakens the ancient black dragon Valez, and he forms a pact with the dragon, gaining the power of dragonfire. Arthur leads the miners in rebellion and, deep within the dragon tomb, discovers the truth: twenty years earlier, Queen Victoria poisoned the Dragon Queen, usurped the throne, and Isabella was never of the legitimate royal bloodline. To stop a forbidden ritual, Arthur exhausts his dragon power and is captured and imprisoned. With the help of the old king, Marquis Simon, Bruce, Eileen, and soldiers and civilians who turn against the regime, he escapes, captures White Stone City, and rallies the “Kingslayer” army to march on the royal capital. As nobles and royal troops defect one after another, Arthur storms the palace. Cornered and desperate, Isabella and Victoria activate a sacrificial altar using the souls of countless civilians and summon the demon lord Baal. Deprived of his dragon power, Arthur fights to the death as an ordinary mortal. At the brink of death, he awakens the black dragon once more and ultimately destroys the demon.

In the end, a giant egg carrying the last bloodline of the dragons begins to crack, and the cry of a newborn dragon echoes through the tomb, leaving the story with a final note of hope.
