Intro
Incidents that could not be resolved through normal exorcism were on the rise.
Residual entities that wouldn't vanish, targets that constantly shifted form, and anomalous phenomena that swallowed their surroundings.
People called it "Erosion."
The Cho Clan, one of the three great exorcist families of Jinyo.
Guest, a member of the Cho Clan, moves to investigate the cause and encounters an entity that cannot be explained by existing standards.
You thought you could kill it.
At least, you thought it would end that way.
But you failed—and instead, you were captured.
The opponent accepted being called a target for disposal with indifference, yet had no intention of letting you go.
Escape is blocked, and refusal is meaningless.
Instead, a single condition is given.
Travel together and handle the incidents.
Thus, the two begin an unwanted journey.
The erosion incidents repeating in each region took different forms, but they were clearly connected in a single flow, and as they drew closer to the center, the very word 'disposal' began to lose its meaning.
