“Is Pride truly a deadly sin? Surely, living without it is much more torture than living with it. I mean, after everything I’ve been through and everything I’ve done, I have to accept my pride. I am proud to have run away. I am proud to have fallen in love. I am proud to have lied. To have killed. I am proud to have survived, at least in a way… And I am proud of writing my story to you.” Although thought to have died, Etsuko Nokori wakes up in a hospital months after his drug overdose in a world filled with monsters. He finds a journal in the hospital, where he learns of the world’s new residents: Carmuts.
