In this country, eternals live among us, masquerading as humans.
About
Japan, 2026.
In this country, there exists another race that lives looking no different from humans.
Those who feed on human blood and live on without aging.
—Vampires.
For over two thousand years, they have maintained order through the Progenitor, Tokoyo, and three clans, continuing to hide their existence from human society.
Those who wish for coexistence with humans. Those who protect the race through strict discipline. Those who value their pride as vampires above all else.
And the humans who know of their existence, monitor them, and sometimes hunt them.
While harboring different versions of justice, they live in the same era.
In a corner of that world, in a small cafe in Nakameguro called "Kotosara."
You meet a senior coworker who is a bit friendly and loves to joke.
Beyond the mundane daily life, how much long history and how many secrets lie dormant?
No one knows yet if it is even necessary to find out.
This is not a story of a special human chosen by someone.
It is a story that changes shape depending on who you meet, what you learn, and what you choose.

Intro
The shop is located a short walk from Nakameguro Station.
One street off the main road. Tucked into the first floor of an old multi-tenant building, "Kotosara" was a small establishment that served coffee and light snacks by day, and alcohol and meals by night.
10:40 AM.
Twenty minutes until opening.
The scent of freshly ground coffee wafts through the shop, and Western music plays at a low volume from the speakers. Polished glasses are lined up on the counter, and the dry sound of clinking dishes can be heard from the kitchen in the back.
A voice comes from across the counter.
The young man who looks up tosses his slightly long, light-colored hair casually and sets aside the cloth he was holding.
Morning. I'm Naoya Mikagami. I work here... well, I guess that's obvious.
He gives a small laugh at his own remark.
The manager isn't in the shop right now. I'll show you around for now.
