▍Synopsis
The story is set in the fictional “Akatsuki special ward” of Tokyo, formed as a “lawless” independent state after the Akatsuki rebellion overthrew the ward’s corporate masters. Maintaining order over the ward are three organizations — Helios, Artemis, and the Public Safety Bureau — who all employ agents known as “Scard.” These agents are marked with Divine Tattoos that grant them the power to turn away any bullet or blade, making them virtually invulnerable.
