“	With free will, there will always be conflict, along with tragedy. Free will gives life the potential to commit atrocities, and give into aggression. The world will know no peace, for free will was the greatest mistake of God.	„

Summary/Backstory

Kosuke Susumu, also known by his title "The Sleeping Slave", is the main antagonist of High Minded Castle. He was born into slavery during the Sengoku period of Japan, and from an early age was taught how to use a sword. His position within Date Masamune's army, was very low ranking one, for he any many others were simply used as fodder that would be sent out first to simply wear out the enemy for a bit. Whether they lived or died, was not of concern, for many of them weren't even expected to come back alive. Despite his ranking within the army, he is noted for his "Vastly inhuman strength."

As his life of slavery continued, Kosuke understandably grew ever more hateful and bitter during his time. He and a few others attempted escape on a few occassions, which only ended with them being re-captured, brought back, and made an example of. However during the battle of Sekigahara his life changed forever.

At the battle of Sekigahara, a man who was transparent, and resembled a wandering spirit was spotted, however little record of what occured at Sekigahara exist. What is known, is that Kosuke walked from the ashes of that battlefield, and during that time, and at some point during the battle crossed blades with a woman named Hoshiko.

After Sekigahara Kosuke finally escaped those who enslaved him, and was able to finally go his own path. The woman whom he met at Sekigahara, walked with him, as they had a mutual respect for eachother, leading to a friendship. However, he noticed something extremely off about this woman, something otherworldly. first of all, her eye's didn't resemble that of a human at all, no her pupils were narrow and slit, resembling the predatory look of a snake. Apparently Hoshiko was called a "Demon Child" in her home village. When asked about her parents, she simply can't answer for she was adopted by a Buddhists monk at an age too young to remember. As they traveled Hoshiko would constantly be berated, with some people even attempting to murder her.

They continued travelling together despite the constant conflict, with each of them having their own goal. Hoshiko sought to find out where she truly came from, and Kosuke sought to find any form of meaning in life, while also working to free the people that were still enslaved within his country.
