Megumi Fujiboma, a boy who met an untimely end, awakens to find himself reincarnated as the heir of the prestigious Fujiboma household, one of the three main branches of the revered Boma clan. 

From the moment of his birth, everyone eagerly anticipated the growth of this remarkable heir. However, their enthusiasm quickly faded when Megumi was revealed to lack external abilities, and was declared unfit to become an exorcist—one of those destined to drive the world away from darkness.

Yet, Megumi equipped with a system that was set to change his circumstances far sooner than he had expected refused to give up.

With each stride he took, however, a new challenge emerged: his inferiority in external energy was far more complex than he had originally thought. 

"If one cannot harness the profound forces of light and darkness, then their latent talent is rendered completely useless."

And to make things worse, he possessed an ability that had a very small, but catastrophic drawback.

Megumi was kneeling on the ground, his hand resting on the hilt of his blade as he drew raspy breaths. The tip of the dark katana pierced deep into the ground while he continued to stare at the golden figure standing before him. 


Clad in golden armor, the knight stood before him, wielding a double-edged sword that glowed as bright as the sun, two crimson flames burning in the visage of its helmet. 


Suddenly, the knight turned into a cloud of yellow sparks, vanishing and leaving him alone in the stillness of the night. 


Having regained some of his strength, he slowly got up from the ground, pulling the blade up along the way. Then, he brandished his sword, making sure all the dirt was away from the blade, and subsequently, he carefully sheathed the weapon.
