Saihate no Paladin synopsis

In a city of the dead, long destroyed and far from human civilization, there lives one human child. His name is Will and he is raised by three undead: the mighty skeletal warrior Blood; the graceful mummified priestess Mary; and the grumpy spectral wizard Gus. The three shower the boy with love and teach him everything they know. But one day Will begins to wonder, "Who am I?"

Will must unravel the mysteries of the distant land of death and uncover the secret past of the undead. He must learn the love and mercy of the good gods and the fanaticism and madness of the bad. And when he knows everything, the boy takes the first step on the way to becoming a paladin. "I promised you. It will take a while, but I'll tell you everything. This is the story of the death of many heroes. It's the story of how we died, and it's the reason you grew up here. "
