The series follows the story of a 5000-year-old herbivorous dragon who was living peacefully. One day, a young girl shows up in his cave and offers herself as a sacrifice in order to gain favor from her village. The dragon decides to play along in order to get rid of the girl, despite having no knowledge of powers and demons. However, the dragon discovers that the girl is somewhat of a psychopath with extraordinary power. Their adventures together soon put an end to his rather peaceful life.
