After that, the sealed city of Tokyo graturally returns to normalcy as services are restored. Nothing is that simple though, as from that day on, various ‘abnormal incidents’ begin to occur. Humanity is now starting to be eroded away by the extraordinary.

In the middle of all of this, young people start to have powers awaken that were hidden in their blood known as ‘Hero’s Blood Weapons’. Drawn towards each other’s power, they are engulfed by the chains of a cruel destiny full of unavoidable encounters, mutual understanding, and the shortening of each other’s lives.
