Introduction

The Earth is on the verge of being attacked by a mysterious life form called the Cancer.

The Earth is on the verge of being attacked by a mysterious life form called the “Cancer”. The “Cancer” is unable to attack with any of the weapons that humanity has created so far, and humanity, having no way to fight it off, is defeated without a fight. The land was abandoned, and various countries were lost to the ravages of war. Most of the land is now under the control of the “Canthar”.

The human race had little time left, and was on the verge of extinction when a new weapon was developed. That weapon is the Seraph, a weapon of war. Only those who were equipped with it could deal an effective blow to the Cancers. Mankind gathered together those who had the ability to control the Seraphs and established the Seraph Corps as their last hope. Those who could control the Seraphs had one thing in common. They were all girls with some kind of talent.

One such girl was Gekka Kayamori. She also throws herself into the battle against the Cancer.
