Plot
The Demon King, Valaris, brought an age of darkness upon the world. However, a hero defeated him, and light returned. Before his fall, Valaris created a female clone named Valaris III, into whom he transferred his power. Driven by the desire to resurrect the dark forces, Valaris III enrolls at Shinkai Academy, an ordinary, modern high school. Hiding her identity, she aims to build a new army of demons and takes notice of a mysterious transfer student named Akira Kumon—a seemingly average student who, in reality, is the toughest fighter in the entire school.
