In Tokyo's neon sprawl, college student Kenji is just trying to survive exams, part-time work, and the weight of becoming his own person. But his ordinary life shatters when he crosses paths with the Chasers—cloaked warriors enhanced by nanotech, sworn to defend humanity from the monsters lurking in the shadows.
Thrust into their brutal conflict, Kenji discovers he isn't just another recruit. His body hides powers that make him unlike any human—or Chaser. Strength enough to tip the balance. Origins buried in secrets he was never meant to know.
But power is dangerous. To the fractured factions of Chasers, Kenji is less a savior than a threat—something to be tested, controlled, or destroyed. Soon, he finds himself hunted not only by the monsters prowling the night but by the very guardians of humanity.
Caught between loyalty and survival, Kenji must decide: Will he master the gifts that could make him more than human? Or will those same gifts turn him into the very monster he fears becoming?
As alliances fracture and conspiracies deepen, the line between protector and predator blurs. In a world where every choice draws blood, Kenji will have to confront the truth at the heart of his existence.
What makes a monster? The blood you carry, or the choices you make?
