While the whole school is in chaos, Hayato is mortally wounded protecting his friends. Just before his life is about to end, he has a chance encounter with a girl who is an incarnation of Magatsu, a grudge sealed by his ancestors. She is the 13 demon generals who shook the capital a thousand years ago in the Heian era. In the form of a beautiful young girl, he smiled at her.
