Ichiya Suzaku carries the Tokyo half of the Qualidea Code story, fighting alongside fellow cryo-sleep survivors who woke with "World" powers to defend the city from the invading Unknown. One leg of a three-book light novel project whose other entries are set in Kanagawa and Chiba, this volume follows Ichiya's unit as they hold their section of the front line, and puts his own sense of justice to its first real test.
