Lorenzo Holmes, who arrived in Old Dunling six years ago, now mingles in this city of steel and steam as a private detective. Here he has encountered a strange case.

"So, there's something wrong with Wol's body?"
"I pierced through his cervical vertebrae... His carotid artery ruptured, massive internal bleeding ensued, and he quickly died, but the bizarre thing happened then."
"He should have died... he definitely died, but his heart was still beating, beating wildly. You could say his brain was dead, but the body was still alive, extracting fresh blood from the bullet holes."

Eve leaned against the edge of the balcony, the afterglow of the sunset reddening her face, as servants seeing her whispered among themselves.


They said the Princess of the Phoenix family has finally grown up, carrying a sorrow in her eyes like a teenage girl troubled by love, eagerly anticipating an exquisite romance with a charming young man... What nonsense!


Eve slammed the balcony railing forcefully and stormed back to her bedroom, not wanting to hear the gossip from those servants downstairs anymore.


There must be something wrong with her life! Where is the handsome youth, the only male she's encountered is that lunatic Lorenzo.


Her worries were about the Secret Blood surging within her body, according to Lorenzo, the Phoenix family must be connected with demons, the so-called Secret Blood requiring purification by alchemy, a technique reportedly known only to the Demon Hunting Order, the mystery hovering over the Phoenix family.
