She crossed the world to face her demons

And found the man bound to slay them.

Leila is a cunning bounty hunter and the black sheep of a gifted family of magi. After spending a year watching her mother waste away while her prodigy brother pursued his own ambitions, she is left with a cursed box and a fragment of an ancient demon wrapped around her soul.

Haunted and grieving, Leila follows her brother's trail to a distant land. But in this empire of shadowed streets, paper lanterns, and sacred temples, she is the one being hunted.

His name is Renji Kurosawa.

He is the last phantom. The deadliest demon slayer in the city. A man hidden behind a crimson mask.

As Leila uncovers a conspiracy tied to her elusive brother, the sadistic game of cat and mouse between them twists into a bloody obsession, and Renji will inevitably become the man who would burn the world to save her.
