STORY

Godhood Awaits. Go and Claim It.

You are a third-year student at Jouin High School, whose peaceful life is torn asunder. After a tunnel collapse, you are thrust into Da’at: a ravaged version of Tokyo where demons run rampant. You become an unholy being—a Nahobino—by fusing with a mysterious man known as Aogami and find yourself in the middle of a battle between mythical deities and the demonic forces.

 

Revenge Awaits

 

As demons attack mankind and plunge the world into chaos, Bethel, an organization lead by angels, rises up against them. While navigating the mysterious realm of Da’at, the protagonist has a life-changing encounter with Yoko Hiromine. With magic at their disposal, they soon find themselves on the front line of battle. However, the Qadištu—a faction of four demons—stands in their way.

“And so we have found it… The key to the resurrection…”

Lilith, one of the Qadištu, proclaims herself a “Fallen One” and calls the protagonist “the key to the resurrection.” What is she scheming? The tale of the Fallen Ones’ vengeance begins…
