Description
Down-and-out samurai Ryudo Konosuke has a supernatural gift, but it is a power that has ruined his life.A down-and-out samurai named Ryudo Konosuke struggles through his hardscrabble life in early 19th-century Japan. It is said that a samurai’s spirit rests in their sword-and Konosuke can’t even pick one up thanks to a cruel curse that repels anything made of metal that gets near him. Destitute and hopeless, he decides to end it all. But when a beautiful and mysterious woman saves his life and his soul, it is the beginning of Konosuke’s journey into a strange world of magic that exists a step away from his own.Konosuke, Aki, and Bokutake find themselves trapped in a game of chance with a mysterious gambler, Rabbit-Eyed Tenroku, and the wager is nothing less than Tsuki’s life! Tenroku’s gift guarantees that he can’t lose, but losing is exactly what he desires the most! Why does he seek death? The answer lies in his dark past and a famine that struck the land a few years earlier. For Konosuke, cutting through the curse will require him to manifest his own gift in a way he never thought possible. Konosuke cannot wield a metal blade, but he may have a weapon stronger than steel…
