After their entire class was transported to another world, Yogiri Takatou and Tomochika Dannoura were abandoned when it was discovered they had failed to receive the Gift, a special power that the rest of their class inherited from a powerful Sage named Sion. What none of the others knew, however, was that Yogiri already had his own unique power — one that multiple world governments back home were keeping him under observation for: the power of Instant Death! With Yogiri’s abilities now exposed and being scrutinized by Sages and Swordmasters alike, this unlikely duo continues their adventure, determined to find a way back to Japan. The only lead they have to go on is to follow their former classmates’ trail and track down the formidable Sion in the hopes that she’ll be willing to negotiate. But even with the power of Instant Death on their side, the world around them seems intent on making the task as much of a hassle as possible!
