Plot

In the magical fantasy world of Alneath, the villainous Demon Lord Veltol Velvet Velsvalt was slain in battle by the hero Gram. 500 years later, his subordinate Machina Soleige uses magic to revive Veltol. During his time away however, Alneath underwent a catastrophe known as the "Fantasion" when it merged with the industrial world of Earth in the year 2023. This resulted in prejudice between various races, the collapse of national boundaries, and wars between newly established city states. After the wars, relative peace broke out, and Alneath's magic was combined with Earth's industry to create magical engineering known as "magineering". Veltol is revived in the year 2099 in the city state of Shinjuku (formerly Tokyo), and together Machina and her hacker friend Takahashi, he attempts to regain his power and once again attempt world domination.[1]
