Fourteen-year-old outsider Kiyomaro Takamine ( 高嶺 清 麿 Takamine Kiyomaro ) lives with his mother in Japan. One day his father, who works in England, finds an unconscious boy in a wooded area. This boy, Gash Bell ( ガ ッ シ ュ ・ ベ ル Gasshu Beru ), has lost his memory. Kiyomaro's father sends Gash to Japan, where he is supposed to become Kiyomaro's mentor.
Gash is no ordinary boy, but one of a hundred demons from the underworld who duel every thousand years on earth to determine the next king of the demons. Every demon has its own book, each with its own color, which contains spells that only the keeper of the book can read.
Over time, Kiyomaro and Gash learn more and more about the duels, meet friends and enemies, and learn new spells.
