Those bullets will kill the future of the girl — a Dark Horror TPS
The girl was chosen as the bride <sacrifice>.
In a fictional postwar era, the Imperial Capital, bubbling with reconstruction, was struck by disaster once more.
The evil “Dragon God,” dwelling within the Imperial Capital Tower—a symbol of revival—
glared down upon the exhausted city, its fangs poised to sink into its throat.
Thus, the people, driven to desperation, decided to offer a sacrifice and beg for mercy.
The powerless forced the sacrifice upon the even weaker.
The Dragon God's bride—that was the fate imposed upon an unfortunate girl each year.
