His family was struck with debt and most often had confrontations with debt collectors who mercilessly beats him up, to the point where Tadayoshi starts sword training to avenge himself, but he keeps holding back due to being conflicted of being a normal civilian or a samurai. That is until Tadayoshi meets a beautiful girl named Maya, who appears during night. Later, Maya was revealed to be a vampire like creature called Rasetsu.
