    Summary

    Sakumo Hatake, an orphan, has always dreamed to swap his boring, farmer life for another fuller with challenges. One day, he awakes the chakra that has been dormant within him, and an unexpected meeting changes the course of his life.

    Slowly building his own fame in Konoha, he discovers that he is not entirely human, but also a Claymore. From there, he and his friends uncover truth after truth, each one darker than the precedent. From a simple orphan to the heir of two eminent lineages, he has to deal with the mistakes of the past, challenging his beliefs in this quest for justice.

    The dangers come from all sides, even those he used to think as safe. In the end, he realizes that the life he has dreamed for comes with a lot of pain, something his mind is eventually ready to accept, his heart not so much. It shapes the shinobi he will become, praised by his peers as long as his actions benefit them all.

    When they don’t, all he has fought for crumbles, and Sakumo has to bear the hypocrisy of the village he has sacrificed so much for. Despite everything, he still fights for those who despise him, a task harder as the days go by, when life has lost all its sense.
