Six years after having been sentenced to life imprisonment for the massacre of her entire village, Shun Shutsuki is recruited by the master of Gushiken Paranormal Organization and taken out of prison. Shun is the possessor of the Godai Shakujō, a hereditary ability of the Shutsuki Clan, which appears only once in several generations and manifests itself in the form of a powerful anti-monster weapon. According to Kagami Gushiken, the master of the Organization, Shun wasn't herself during the massacre; she was possessed by a demon. However, this does not appear to be the entire truth; only Doctor Tsunan Hitachiin and the Master seem to know exactly what happened that fateful night. Evidently, the other members of the Organization are not at ease- to say the least- with the idea of having a "mass murderer" amongst them, with Tsunan's fan-club being particularly averse to Shun's presence within the organization. Even if monsters are absolutely real, none of them believe in the existence of demons and much less in demonic possession. Everything becomes complicated when Naoto Higaonna, an ex-member of the organization- who is now working as a high-school teacher- kills a group of students out of the blue before committing suicide. Things become even more complicated when the members of the Organization discover that Shun is constantly being hounded and persecuted by a certain Tadashi Honjō, with whom Shun seems to share a long-time bond. Who is Tadashi Honjō? Or rather, what is he? But, above it all, who is Subaru? What is Shun hiding so desperately? Will she be able to survive within the Organization? Will she return safely from the missions assigned to her? Author's Note: This story is dedicated to all the fans of manga and anime.

This year, I found out I'm one of the Children of Zen, a descendant of the most powerful spiritual beings to ever exist on earth. My name is Ana. I'm special because I exist in both the mortal and spirit world. I can use magic, and recently I've discovered my mad skills with a Japanese sword.

To kick that demon's butt, I have to go on a quest that could get me (and two of my most trusted friends) killed.

Existence continues after death. Your grandma always told you that, but you didn't believe her until you woke up on the other side. A world where the monsters she whispered to you about roam freely. And you have been reborn as a monster, just like them. But you're not out of the woods yet. A mix of fate, bad luck, and debt from your life has you enrolled in the 'Kami Kyoso'. A tournament of youkai from the other world, fighting for the entertainment of the gods and a first class ticket into heaven. It's a brutal fight where newly reborn youkai like yourself would usually be trampled, but there's hope yet. You have a mysterious, suspicious, godly sponsor in your corner. He might be a bit strange, with reasons you couldn't possibly hope to understand. But he also might just get you through this and onto the better parts of your eternal existence. Maybe. It's a bit of a toss up, at the moment. Even with your doubts, your confusion, your fear, you will survive. You are desperate to survive, you must survive. You're scared, but you will survive. You will win. You will fight, you have to. - Credits: My co-writer Penelope, and my beta-reader Isa!
