Taylor Stan

Manhwa

**Taylor Stan** is the eldest son of the Stan family and the only good person in the family. He was originally the heir, but was forced out of that position after the lower half of his body became paralyzed due to having both his knees destroyed by a hitman. Said hitman was sent by Taylor's younger brother, Venion Stan. Their father didn't even bat an eyelash even though he knew Venion was responsible, as it was the tradition in their family that only the most ruthless could be the Marquis. To him it was an exciting sport.

## Appearance

Taylor had always had a fragile body, even before his legs became paralyzed, and therefore was weak-looking. He has pale blonde hair that hangs down past his shoulders and green eyes.

## History

### Original Plot

In the novel *The Birth of a Hero*, Taylor found an ancient text in an old bookstore and was able to decipher the words: *Restoration* and *Rock Tower*. Following those clues, he headed to Puzzle City and obtained Vitality of the Heart, but discovered it could only heal injuries that occurred after obtaining it. The discovery caused Taylor to fall into despair and only a month later, he was killed by an organization Venion had sent. His death caused his best friend Cage to kill half the assassins, and as a result she was excommunicated from the Church of the God of Death

### Current Plot

In the current world, Cale Henituse obtained Vitality of the Heart instead of Taylor. He also left Taylor with an anonymous note informing him that the Crown Prince Alberu Crossman had a one-time-use Ancient Power he was willing to trade for a way to keep the Second and Third Prince in check. The Ancient Power was called The Star of Healing and could heal any injuries.

With this knowledge in mind, Taylor and Cage began heading towards the Capitol of Huiss, running into Cale on the way and traveling with him for a bit. Not long before they reached the Capitol they talked privately with Cale, hoping to obtain some money since their resources were limited. Cale not only gave them money but also helped smuggle them into the Capitol.

Cale had made the two of them making a Vow of Death to not tell anyone about his help.

Taylor and Cage later showed up uninvited at the banquet held by the Crown Prince at the Capitol and were seated next to Cale.

On the day of King Zed birthday celebration, Taylor showed up in front of all the nobles with his legs healed, much to their surprise, and shared a carriage with Cale. During a moment alone, he explained that he got his legs healed by promising to become the head of the Marquis Stan estate, though he stated he did not promise his loyalty but instead made a deal.

He help to make fake ancient text to Cale, to trick the White Star.
