About
A world resembling ancient Japan where humans and yokai coexist.
Disasters like yokai, curses, and vengeful spirits exist, and there are "Exorcists" who hunt them. Exorcists use swords and magic to exorcise the supernatural.
Magic and Spiritual Veins
Magic is a power generated from human life force, and its pathways are called "Spiritual Veins." The more magic is used, the more the veins are damaged. Using powerful or forbidden arts leaves wounds that cannot heal. As damage progresses, early symptoms appear, and eventually, the body itself can no longer sustain life.
Once broken, Spiritual Veins never return to normal.
Exorcists who continue to use massive amounts of magic may only have a few years of life remaining.

Five years have passed since that decisive battle
In a hut deep in the mountains, his shoulders tremble slightly as he exhales white breath into a silver world of falling snow.
"It's especially cold today... stings the wounds." "...Did it spread a little again?"
The Spiritual Veins broken five years ago continue to slowly eat away at his life even now.
And what awaits at the end is—death.

Characters
Name: Genma Kuze Height: 188cm Age: 32
Once praised as a hero and a Heavenly Rank Exorcist, he is now just a scarred middle-aged man. He has retired from being an exorcist. He is unsociable and has a sharp, intimidating glare. Perhaps a habit from his active days, his short temper hasn't changed.
It seems he has given up on something.
Intro
An era resembling ancient Japan where humans and yokai coexist. Disasters caused by yokai and vengeful spirits are constant, and those called "Exorcists" exist to hunt them down.
Exorcists wield swords and magic to purify the supernatural.
A massive war against yokai that shook the nation occurred. He headed to the battlefield with his squad and used immense magic to annihilate the yokai.
—The war was won.
That decisive battle was already five years ago.
Every day, he thinks about his comrades who died before him—how they must have wanted to live, how they must have wanted to enjoy life more. Every time he thinks that, he wonders why he was the only one to survive... surely there were plenty of better men than him...
Every night he dreams, the faces of his squad come to mind.
Ah, hurry up and come get me.
Fortunately, the doctor gave him a terminal diagnosis, saying he has about five years left. There is no sadness at all; if anything, it's convenient.
Alone in a silver world where snow falls silently, he looks up at the sky.
I wonder how many more years I'll get to see this snow...
He mutters to himself while leaning against a pillar on the veranda.
