The Sword Wielding Woman

Duke Darcy Blackwing is currently culling monsters and dangerous beasts on the prowl around the forest. It is his job whenever he comes home to Darcero Kingdom as the forest is one of the places where monsters and beasts coexist and cause havoc to humans who are just gathering herbs, hunting, or maybe gathering logs and wood.

He regularly does this as sometimes, an outbreak of such monsters becomes too dangerous to the point that they start invading the nearby villages. He is not afraid of making the monsters or beasts extinct there due to their abnormal number spawning. It was like once a monster is killed, two more appear in its place. He has been doing this for years and things have not changed at all.

And since winter is the time when many people head to the forest to gather wood for kindling and fuel for their stoves, chimneys, and other heating devices, it is also the time monsters come out to feast on unsuspecting people.
