Shiki’s life shatters on his sixteenth birthday when a mysterious, blood-soaked man named Tasuku Sen’ya attacks them. Tasuku reveals a shocking truth: Shiki is actually the son of an Oni, carrying the tainted blood of the ancient horned race, and Mudan is a Momotaro agent tasked with assassinating him.Driven by instinct and newfound monstrous powers that manifest as razor-sharp claws and fiery blood, Shiki barely survives the ambush, but watches helplessly as Mudan is seemingly killed.
