To be an adventurer means facing dangerous monsters for riches and rewards. But not every mission is a successful one, and not every adventurer makes it out. That's where Nemu comes in. As a corpse bearer, Nemu is tasked with finding fallen fighters and slaughtered supports in the very dungeon that killed them. It's a dangerous job with a bad reputation, but to Nemu, it's just a paycheck. One day while on a job, she runs into Garensis, an injured explorer who seems fascinated by her. Suddenly, her usually solitary run becomes far noisier.

Searching for his sister, Garensis is sure that he'll be successful if he sticks with Nemu and tags along, despite her indifference. But he'll find that there's much more to the role of corpse bearer than just fetching the dead... if Nemu lets him.
