Synopsis

A scientist known as Dr. Akamashi launches a coup d'état in the Forland Kingdom using his army of beasts and two android minions. With his dying breath, the king tells his daughter, Princess Alita, to escape at all cost and find Prince Kaito - her older brother who's currently on a diplomatic mission abroad - in order to guarantee her own safety and possibly take back the kingdom. As Alita flees, however, she ends up in a predicament that results in her dying and swapping bodies with Falis, an infamous bounty hunter who happened to be out hunting in a nearby forest together with her monster sidekicks, Dominikov and Pete. With the two women retaining their respective skills and personalities but changing appearances, Alita, now in Falis's body, begs her to go back to her kingdom and make things right, offering her body and soul as collateral - to which Falis, now in Alita's body, agrees, leading to the birth of the so-called Murder Princess, who ends up not only having to take back and protect the kingdom, but also, unravel a much deeper intrigue that soon unfolds.

Birth

Dr. Akamashi initiates a coup d’etat in the Forland kingdom, forcing Alita, the Forland princess, to flee in the hopes of reaching her brother. A short while later in a border forest, Alita accidentally pushes the bounty hunter Falis off a cliff while fleeing from the forest guardian beast who killed her entourage of castle guards. This results in Alita and Falis switching bodies due to the near-death experience. Falis accepts Alita's plea to protect the Forland kingdom after Alita offers her own body and soul as collateral.

Falis and Alita get into an argument, and Falis goes off to vent her steam on the encroaching goblins. During this time, Akamashi's aides kidnap Alita and interrogate her about her real identity and about the "key". Falis goes to the rescue but is coerced into dropping her weapon.

Exile

Since the prince has returned and is soon to be crowned, Falis plans to leave the next day. Alita says she'll be lonely, but she's told Falis will return when she finds a way to swap bodies again. Later in the evening, Falis is called by the mysterious hooded woman and led into a secret chamber in the castle. They fight and Alita and the others come down to help her, but they run into the two androids and the professor. Suddenly the professor is stabbed by the black armored knight, and the two androids are also defeated. Falis is badly beaten by the knight, who reveals himself to be Kaito in front of all the guests. He claims that Falis is a false princess and that the others are rebels. The four of them are forced to flee the kingdom and Kaito is crowned as king.

Fate

Falis, Alita and their companions manage to evade capture thanks to a group of travelling entertainers. When they stop to take a break, they begin to discuss the circumstances behind everything that has transpired so far. It turns out that the root cause to all this is the Lost Technology, which was entrusted to the House Forland after the demise of the Old World and is protected by a seal that can only be opened by female members of the House.
