Plunderer

In a world governed by numerical "counts" etched onto every living being, humanity's fate is inextricably linked to these seemingly arbitrary tallies. Whether it's the distance walked, the compliments received, or the defeats endured, a person's count dictates their standing and, ultimately, their very existence. When a count drops to zero, the abyss awaits, pulling the unfortunate soul into an unknown dimension. Our story begins with Hina, whose mother's dying wish sends her on a quest to find the legendary Ace, a hero from the devastating War of Abolition. As she navigates this perilous world, she encounters Licht Bach, a mysterious, masked swordsman with an impossibly low count, whose past is as enigmatic as his fighting prowess. Together, they embark on a journey that will challenge the very foundations of their world, uncovering secrets about the counts and the true nature of their reality.
