Arcane Pact

Lin Wei, a Chinese-French cultural relic restorer, awakens unexpectedly after touching the "Moon" card in an ancient book. She gains the power to see through lies and weave illusions, and is instantly swept into a global supernatural storm. Amid the chaos, she unexpectedly encounters three "Resonants," and they quickly form an alliance: Elijah, a Wall Street trader who can foresee collapses; Sakura, a Kyoto artist who can transform pain; and Ricardo, a Rio activist skilled at inspiring others.

They discover that the extremely rational "Secret Society of Swords" is using algorithms to distort the true nature of tarot, triggering global disasters of "reversed" cards. Fear takes physical form, and cities descend into madness. To turn the tide, the four travel across the world in search of the legendary "True Tarot," vying for the power of cards such as the "Chariot" and the "Star" while growing rapidly through fierce battles. From street fighting in Tokyo to Egyptian ruins, they struggle to survive as they navigate between the "Eye of Pentacles," which seeks order, and the "Wand Seekers," who yearn for change. In the end, the "Professor" launches the world-ending program "Unity," hoping to reshape reality. The four brave the core of consciousness and, through courage, sacrifice, and acceptance, reverse their fate and put an end to this apocalyptic disaster...
