In a politically unstable empire, an office worker reincarnated as the son of an aristocrat.
At the age of three, Ars begins to awake certain abilities, among those he is able to appraise the skills of others. He decides to keep the secret, but also begins to use it to help others.
Despie his young age, Ars learned how to read and write and thanks to his previous life he is able to understand the political issues in his new home.
One day, as he watches some soldiers train he is able to appraise the skills of Millais. He is a natural archer, but thinks a bow is a lame weapon.
Ars is able to convince him to try it for the first time and as expected, he does a great job and everyone praises Millais.
Ars power is for real, however, he cannot use it to appraise his own skills. Later, his father commends him for helping Millais and asks him to hone his skills to become a respected leader.
Ars understands that due to the political struggles in all the empire, his future is not as bright and peaceful as he wants.
Then, Ars decides to go to town and perfect his appraisal skills and meets a Malkan kid, who are usually used as slaves.
Ars uses his appraisal skill and finds impressive potential in the Malkan kid, Rietz. So impressive that Ars asks him to become his retainer and work with him.
Ars think he might never find someone as extraordinary as him and doesn’t hesitate to take him home, where others receive him with contempt.
Prejudice against Malkan runs deep, and even his father refuses to accept Ars’ petition. However, Ars tells his father that Rietz has incredible talents.
His father decides to test Rietz in a combat drill and despite beating him, he acknowledges his power and decides to hire and train him.
