In a world where nearly everyone is born with a guin, extraordinary power that grants unique abilities, only a select few are chosen to become a 'hero'. Through intense training and arduous challenges, these individuals are forged into protectors, standing as humanity's hope against all kind of evil. Takumi Kurata was born with a cruel and terrifying guin. His power allowed him to instantly kill any living being by pulling its neck from its head, a lethal ability that made even the most fearsome villains pale in comparison. The power could also be reversed, bringing the victim back to life if the body was properly reframed. Bullied for his dangerous guin, Takumi initially fought back, rising to dominance and establishing a reign of terror that made even his middle school peers cower in fear. Deep down, however, he struggled with his power, believing that the very thing that could protect the weak made him unworthy of being a hero. His dream of becoming a hero crumbled as he succumbed to a life of bitterness and despair. In a society where only some individuals can undergo the rigorous training to become a hero, Takumi’s path seemed lost. That is, until he met his idol, Mr. White—a hero who reminded him that power, in all its forms, can be wielded for both good and evil. Encouraged by Mr. White’s words, Takumi found new resolve, determined to use his terrifying guin for the greater good. This is the story of Takumi Kurata, a kind-hearted yet twisted boy, torn between his dark gift and his desire to protect others, as he strives to become a true hero in a world that fears him.

Alfero, raised in extreme poverty, loses his father, a guard protecting the stone, and his mother to starvation.
