Chapter 1: Unlikely Encounters
The Last Defense Academy was a place where survival overshadowed everything else...
Gaku Maruko is pretty self-focused and not shy about sharing his frustrations, but he often prefers to be alone to find some peace. He preferred to keep others at arm's length, believing that attachments only led to pain.
Omokage Yugamu, also known as the "Teenage Assassin," really stood out as something different. With his unsettling fascination for the macabre and a belief that killing was an art form, he was both feared and misunderstood. Yet, beneath his eerie demeanor lay a complexity that few dared to explore.
They didn’t really meet or interact much before, until a mission made them work closely together. Assigned to defend a critical point against the School Invaders, they had no choice but to rely on each other.
