世にはあらゆる怪が跋扈していた。
人々は震えおののき、
眼に見えないものに、
またそれらが生現する暗闇に恐怖した。
そんな時代の裂け目に、
それは唐突に現れた。
形容のし難い輝きを帯びた光球。
あらゆる災いを纏い、
都を失意の底に沈ませる。
そんなおり、
一人の若者が立ち上がる。
得体の知れぬ闇に戦いを挑む一つの魂。
この世を納めるのは鋭利な牙を持つ「鬼」なのか。。。
はたまた善なる心に棲まう「鬼」なのか。。。
暗雲立ち篭める鈴鹿山に鬼の哭き声が谺する。
It was a time when the world was overrun with mystery.
People trembled and shook,
Though it was invisible to the eye,
They now lived in fear of the darkness.
From a tear in that time,
It appeared suddenly.
A figure tinted with hard, glittering lights.
Catastrophe followed wherever it went,
And the capital sank into the depths of despair.
And then,
A single young man stood up.
A lone soul challenging the sinister darkness.
Is the one who will save this world a "demon" with sharp fangs...?
Or a "demon" with a kind heart...?
Trapped by dark clouds over the Suzuka mountains,
A demon's weeping voice echoes.
