Hero Tales Vol. 5 (manga)

The time is drawing near when Taitou must face the self-proclaimed ruler of the Ken Empire, Keirou — and the avatars of the opposing stars Hagun and Tonrou will decide the fate of the world! Taitou makes his way to the capital with only a handful of friends and Divine Warriors. With Housei gone and Rinmei in no condition to fight, the challenge will be even greater. But help may be found in an unlikely place: Ryuukou’s loyalty strayed once, but he has returned once again to Taitou’s side. There are still hard feelings, but Taitou will need the strength of all his friends if he wants to end Keirou’s reign of terror!
