A little
of its history
The story
follows the city of Domori, plagued by unexplained supernatural
phenomena. To protect the children, a new teacher known as Cloud
arrives. Although he is usually friendly and approachable, he hides a big
secret: he is the only psychic teacher in Japan, and his left hand is possessed
by a demon.
As a
messenger of justice, Cloud faces the seven school mysteries,
ghosts, and evil spirits that haunt his students. Thus begins this story of
action with tinges of occultism.
