A delightful tale from the Shadow Realm

A realm of demons, Adribune.
The Overlord who once ruled this world has suddenly vanished. The three nations and the ruling state, four countries in total, seize the chance to start fighting among themselves. In the growing chaos, the Radiant Realm sends its heroes to take control of the Shadow Realm.
Amid the turmoil, a lone demon named Kaine washes ashore on a remote island nation. Kaine has lost all memories and remembers only his name and the need to search for fragments of his past.
Iroha, who has been caring for Kaine, witnesses the immense power hidden within him. Hoping to save her country from the heroes' advance, she begs Kaine to lend his strength.

Learn magic through orbs

Some of the orbs Kaine and his allies can equip contain built-in skills. As these orbs grow in battle, their skills become stronger and may even unlock new ones. Keep training them and unleash powerful strikes.

Unleash decisive POW skills

Battles unfold in a side-view command format. Along with orb skills, each character has unique POW skills. Build up the gauge and strike at the perfect moment.

Charming companions

Your journey includes an adorable (perhaps) mascot and three captivating princesses. Fulfill their requests along the way to grow closer, and you might find special memories awaiting you. What will become of Kaine? What choices will he make?
