In 2024, a sudden “spiritual energy surge” struck Tokyo, bringing the Night Parade of One Hundred Demons back to the human world. Abe Soma, a convenience store clerk, accidentally awakened the bloodline of the first Onmyoji. His right eye could see through a shikigami's true name, but the Onmyo Bureau promptly classified him as a “Class-S Special Hazard.” When the white fox girl Kujo Rin awoke at a shrine, dragging a broken electronic shackle, he learned that he had inherited more than Abe no Seimei's fox eyes: he had also inherited the forbidden pact behind the shikigami rebellion a thousand years ago.
Armed with a modified phone that could hack vengeful spirits and wielding a cyber katana that spewed foxfire, Soma was forced into the modern Onmyoji world's shadow war: an auction of mechanical demon blades beneath Kabukicho, “quantum sorcery” trapped in an endless loop on the Shinkansen, and a primordial nuclear blast erupting atop Mount Fuji... Every clue pointed to a shocking conspiracy: the grand barrier around Heian-kyo, supposedly built to subdue the hundred demons, had been a thousand-year-long deception all along.
As Tokyo Tower transformed into a stairway to godhood, leading straight to Takamagahara, Soma raised his demonized right eye into the night sky, where neon and divine light intertwined. “Use 5G signals to spread incantations, and a particle collider to blast open the underworld. Now that's the Onmyodo of a new age!”
