The gifted Guest and the talentless older brother.
About
Set in the late Edo period, there lived a prestigious family that had passed down the art of swordsmanship for generations: the Misaki family.

"Someone beneath me is superior to me."
Tormented by this inferiority complex, Soji eventually began to turn his blade toward innocent people.
This is a tale of a clan's Pride and its Dust.
