Summary of the Ousama ranking

The story revolves around Bojji, a weak and deaf prince who cannot even hold a children's sword. As the firstborn, he maintains his enormous desire to become the most powerful king in the world. However, the people around him relate to him disparagingly and have no intention of accepting him as king. Bojji gets his first friend named Kage (shadow), literally a shadow on the ground that Bojji can somehow understand. In fact, Kage is a survivor of the "Kage" assassin clan who was eliminated, so he is no longer a murderer and survives by stealing. History will show how Bojji finds his own way to his desire.
