"Paul looked down at the brown, narrow rectangle on the table. He tore open a cardboard panel and let the box's contents slide out. The object that emerged was covered in dark, lacquered wood with a metal ring part way up from its bottom. Covered as it was, it gave off a sinister, deadly aura. It was an object meant to kill. A sword." Paul Engel is an ordinary, awkward teenager who lives in a world very similar to ours but with one major difference, superhumans called Amuli covertly rule the world. Paul just wants a normal life, but after he receives a strange package in the mail containing a crystal-embedded sword, all hopes of a normal life flicker away as he becomes bonded to the sword and given incredible powers. With no understanding of how these new powers work, he is recruited into the shadowy organization A.R.C. In order to keep himself and his family safe, Paul is forced to undergo intense combat training and become a living weapon to fight against the even shadier Amuli organization known as A.I.M. for secret control of the world's governments and major corporations. Every task is more dangerous than the last in the life of an A.R.C. agent, and it will push young Paul to his every limit just for a chance at survival.
