In the walled city of Baldium, certain individuals develop supernatural abilities known as Unlaw—powers born from emotional trauma and mental anguish. Norman, a young man with an impressive track record of resolving mysterious cases involving these Unlaw, should have been celebrating his successes. Instead, he finds himself trapped in a dark interrogation room, forced to recount every case he’s handled—especially those involving four extraordinary girls who became his closest allies: the Teardrop, the Witch’s Hound, the Gemstone, and the Fairy.
