action
In a post-apocalyptic world overrun by “Filth” monsters, people can only live in huge mobile cities called regios. These regios are divided into different functions, whereby regios with the same function compete with each other and fight for the usage rights for Selenium mines through military maneuvers with fixed rules. This selenium represents the energy source for the regios.
The 15-year-old Layfon "Wolfstein" Alseif, a former bearer of one of Grendan's 12 sky swords, which he was able to win for himself at the age of 10, comes from one of the most unusual regions. Grendan is the only one of the Regios that seeks the encounter with "Filth" monsters and produces a large number of exceptionally strong military artists. All other Regios try to avoid the "Filth" monsters. Layfon Alseif was banished from there because of an offense that was unforgivable for Grendan. He then takes the long and dangerous journey with the “roaming” buses to the Akademie-Regios Zuellni, where he wants to start a new life far away from the military arts and lead a civil life. But because of an unfortunate incident at the beginning of the semester, his unusually strong skills as a military artist in the use of "kei" come to light. Thereupon the President of Zuellni puts him into the military artist training for the benefit of Zuellni, in order to increase the chances of a victory in the next inter-regios tournament for Zuellni, who had lost two of her three vital selenium mines in the last three fights .
