In this installment
In 2029, the catastrophe known as Lost Christmas unleashed the Apocalypse Virus upon Japan, triggering mass death and societal collapse. The United Nations responded by deploying the GHQ to quarantine the outbreak, an action that effectively ended the nation's political sovereignty. Ten years later, Japan remains under the heavy-handed rule of the GHQ, suffering under their oppression. Determined to break this tyranny, the resistance group Funeral Parlor, commanded by the charismatic Gai Tsutsugami, plots to liberate the country by stealing a vial of the Void Genome. This crucial item falls into the hands of Inori Yuzuriha, a popular online singer, making her a prime target for the GHQ's Anti-Bodies squad. Cornered, Inori hides in a warehouse where she meets Shuu Ouma, an introverted high school student and devoted fan of her music. After Shuu assists Inori, he is thrust into the center of the conflict. When the Void Genome shatters in his grasp, he awakens to the Power of the Kings. Struggling to master this newfound ability, Shuu is compelled to join the struggle against the ruthless rulers and fight for Japan's freedom.
