Shiki Ichinose's blood is Oni, and his father's is Momotarou. Normally, people with Momotarou blood would hunt Oni—but Shiki's father refused to kill him as a child. Instead, he adopted Shiki and raised him despite his rebellious attitude and dangerous temper due to his Oni blood. When a member of the Momotarou Agency kills Shiki's father, Shiki vows to avenge him. But as he hone his abilities and learned to control his Oni blood, will he be strong enough to survive the dangers that await him…?
