In a noble manor on earth, a forgotten past quietly unfolds.
Matt, the young master of the Ashworth family, has been with his servant Drone V since childhood. They secretly built a miniature city, which was their shared secret and freedom. However, his father, Lord Edmund, regarded robots as tools and warmth as weakness, and eventually abandoned V in the name of "removing faulty products." V was later picked up by Tessa, the eldest daughter of the Elliott family, and became her servant drone - this is the starting point for the encounter between V and N in the main story.
The red scarf that Matt left to V and the Taoist belief that "all things have animism" left by his mother have become the last warmth deep in V's memory. When the Absolute Solver arrives and human civilization is destroyed, and V is forced to put on a mask of madness and survive the killing, does she still remember the boy who built the city with her?
This is a story about class, warmth and destruction. It is also the original fairy tale and wound of V before he became a "murder machine".
