The duty of exterminating them without remorse falls to Menou, a young executioner. When she meets Akari, it seems like just another job… until she discovers that this girl cannot be killed! As Menou searches for a way to overcome this immortality, Akari is more than willing to tag along! Thus begins a journey that will change Menou forever.
