Haven't read it, but the synopsis paints a weird story.

This random guy needs to stop a mad king, but why him? Typically some relation to why is given, Like he's the nephew of the king, or he's found some royal treasure and is now responsible. As I said I didn't read the story, so it's probably explained there, but the connection should still be given in the synopsis.

Also the needing to make his parents proud is usually a comedic line which contrasts with the dark undertone implied with having a mad king seeking immortality.

As I am getting mixed signals.

It's more of a tragedy but start off a bit comically in the first two chapters. It gets way more serious over time.
