The sky over New Himuka wasn’t blue; it was a bruised purple, choked by the "Extinction Belt" that rained down monstrosities known as Others.
Yuito Sumeragi adjusted his ear-cuff, the cold metal a sharp contrast to the phantom ache in his mind. As a new recruit of the Other Suppression Force (OSF), he was a psionic—a human weapon whose brain was hardwired to the Psynet. Around him, the city buzzed with augmented reality advertisements and holographic warnings, a "brain-punk" paradise built on the literal psychic energy of its citizens.
"We find the truth," Yuito said, his voice steadying. "No matter what the Psynet tries to block out."
