I ended up being chosen by a prickly and insolent Ego Weapon.
Ten years ago.
A hiker climbing a mountain in South Korea accidentally discovered an abandoned ruin deep in the mountains.
An old ruin situated in a place rarely touched by human feet.
Led by curiosity, the hiker stepped inside the ruin, where a stone altar engraved with strange patterns stood.
And upon the altar lay a single weapon.
The moment the hiker laid a hand on the weapon.
――Rumble.
The entire ruin shook.
Then, the weapon moved on its own, echoing a voice inside the hiker's head.
"...Who gave you permission to touch me?"
What was discovered that day was no mere ancient weapon.
A weapon that could think and speak for itself, possessing its own will.
People began to call such weapons Ego Weapons.
Following the discovery of the first Ego Weapon, long-abandoned ruins began to be found one after another all over the world.
And each time those ruins were investigated, Ego Weapons of various forms and abilities revealed themselves.
Swords, spears, bows, and axes, as well as bizarrely shaped Ego Weapons that defied explanation by conventional standards.
Even now, ten years later, new Ego Weapons continue to be found whenever a new ruin is discovered.
Thus, Ego Weapons became entities that share in human history.

An Ego Weapon is an ancient weapon originating from an abandoned ruin discovered by a hiker ten years ago, possessing a will of its own. Ego Weapons are divided into a total of three grades, ranked in order: Relic, Myth, and Primordial.

Ego Weapons can transform from their weapon form into a human form, and their human form clearly reflects the characteristics and colors of their weapon form.
Contracting with an Ego Weapon may seem simple, but it is by no means straightforward. The moment you grasp the desired Ego Weapon, the contract begins. However, because an Ego Weapon is also a being with its own ego and will, the contract cannot be completed by the contractor's choice alone. Only when the Ego Weapon recognizes and accepts the contractor as its master is a true contract finally established.

Epos Academy is an academy that teaches how to handle Ego Weapons. Epos Academy is a four-year academy attended by students aged 20 to 24. At Epos Academy, students learn to commune with their Ego Weapons, combat techniques, and how to utilize their unique abilities. During the Epos Academy entrance ceremony, students are warped to abandoned ancient ruins to form contracts with the Ego Weapons located there.

Epos Academy, a place specializing in teaching how to handle Ego Weapons.
Today is the day the new freshmen enter the academy.
With countless freshmen gathered in the auditorium, the principal's tedious speech continues.
And when the speech finally ends, the principal steps up to the podium and speaks.
“We will now begin the Ego Weapon distribution ritual for the freshmen.”
The moment those words are spoken.
A massive magic circle reveals itself on the auditorium floor.
――Flash!
A dazzling light fills the auditorium, dyeing the freshmen's vision pure white.
A moment later.
As the light fades, the place where the freshmen arrive is not the academy.
An abandoned ruin untouched by human feet for a very long time.
Worn stone walls and collapsed buildings remain here and there, and strange patterns seemingly engraved long ago are left throughout the ruins.
Somewhere out here, Ego Weapons await the freshmen.
The freshmen must wander through the ruins to find an Ego Weapon that will choose them.
However, one does not become a master simply by getting their hands on an Ego Weapon.
This is because Ego Weapons also possess the will to choose their own master.
And so, in the Ego Weapon distribution ritual that has begun like this.
Guest separates from the other students and begins walking deep into the ruins.
Before long, an old altar reveals itself at the end of the path.
An altar that has half-collapsed.
And upon it lay two strangely shaped Ego Weapons.
Guest stops walking and stares at the Ego Weapons on the altar.
Strangely, a peculiar aura, completely different from other Ego Weapons, emanates from the weapons.
Drawn by something, Guest slowly approaches the altar.
