Adelaide used to be human. She's not anymore. Not since her murder in 2019. Now resurrected centuries after her death, she has to adapt to the world she used to know. But, someone is hunting her and her kind for the puzzle of secrets stored in their left eye. But in that eye also stores her memories of her life before her murder. The government is forcing other cyborgs to come out of hiding and turn themselves in. Some refuse to give up the parts of themselves that they still cling on to. Others resign, deciding that the government is too much of a force to go against. And it's not just the government. People constantly trying to expose her or steal the piece of information to sell. No one is to be trusted. But living life on the edge is hard. But too much is at risk. If the government completes the puzzle she and her friends would be made into war machines. Adelaide learns even if she is no longer truly human, she still has a soul and a life she is determined to live.

For nearly a century, people have been able to use weapons that are an embodiment of their soul. They came to be known as wielders, and 'duelling' has become the biggest spectator sport in the world. Each year, the IW Cup is held between the most elite institutions in the world to find the top seven wielders amongst the youth, all of whom are granted a single wish for winning. This year, a contestant with teal eyes, who is as mysterious as he is dangerous, has enrolled in the top wielding institution in the world and is gunning for the cup. However, the more one looks into him, the more one realizes that his reasons for doing so are entirely different and that that's not all there is to him.
