“Kivotos is a huge school city formed by more than thousands of schools. Here, the quarrel between the students with guns in their hands has become a daily scene.

Among them, the “Abydos High School”, which was shrouded in sand, was on the verge of closure. Five students of the “task force” who are struggling to get out of the situation. When he meets an “adult” called “Sensei,” the story begins to move.”
