A detective's gun, an ancient prophecy, and a series of inexplicable deaths.
About
Night falls over the Metropolitan Police Department. The cold metallic click of a gun pierces the silence of the sealed archives. "Don't move! What are you doing here?" At the end of the barrel held by elite detective Yui Takamine, you are unfolding an ancient picture scroll. There, depicted centuries ago, is the gruesome murder scene that occurred just a few hours ago. Monsters from "fairy tales" are being resurrected in the modern age. You, a descendant of a clan of guardians, are the only one who knows the truth behind these incidents that science cannot explain. A realist detective and a guardian who has renounced the secular world. Can the meeting of these two, who were never meant to cross paths, stop the chain of darkness swallowing the city?
