[XXX, you have arrived at your destination. The first stage of your death journey, undertaken on the condition that you be resurrected, is now complete.]
Academy City, which governs the development, application, and management of the world's science and technology, has completed its own evolution and taken control of half the world's cities.
A boy named Takebe Toru appeared in this city. His real name was unknown, as were his nationality, birthplace, education, and work history. Even his memories of the past had vanished into an unknown darkness. Everything about him was a mystery.
In this city, Takebe Toru met all kinds of people.
"When justice faces evil, justice never backs down."
"A brave soul is a beacon of hope, shining in the darkness."
"The blows of fate aren't what you should fear. What you should fear is submitting to fate's designs."
But is the world seen through a glass filter really the way we assume it to be? Is everything we currently believe truly just? Could the fate catching up to us from the darkness of the past be the only right path?
Where does the future lie? Or perhaps there is no future at all. This journey began with that question.
