In the afterlife, souls pass through multiple layers of the spirit realm, gaining knowledge and maturing before either being reborn or becoming guardian spirits assigned to protect humans from the darkness rising from the lower worlds. Riyon, a carefree spirit who frequently skips her spiritual training, is sent to the human world to act as a guardian. Rather than being matched with a child, she is tasked with overseeing Japan's Prime Minister, Kasuga Soichiro, during the final year and a half of his life. Following a near-death experience, Kasuga acquires strange abilities, such as the power to see Riyon. Can Riyon and Kasuga work together to safeguard his soul from the threats lurking below?
