With skyscrapers and jazz setting the mood, the protagonist, a young magus named Ellie, arrives at the City That Never Sleeps in pursuit of a promising career as a jazz singer.
She soon meets Ilya, the leader of the Seekers, an elite magus organization. With clashing personalities, both characters are tasked with fighting off the schemes of a “mysterious mafia.” Their journey will see them unveil secrets that reveal the truth: the world is in grave danger.
