He’s made great progress for the place of goblins in society, but not everyone is taken in by his charm. Four aristocratic families have refused to accept that a lowly monster has joined their ranks and have all united to take him down a peg. Akira has shown incredible strength and leadership, but can he keep up with the political machinations of this new “anti-goblin alliance”?!
