The story is about Masatora Akutsu, a demon who came to the human world in search of “idols” for the corrupt demons. He meets Lily Amane, a potential idol, and invites her to join him. However, Lily turns out to be an angel, the natural enemy of the demons, and while Akutsu tries to corrupt Lily, she decides to rehabilitate Akutsu for her own selfish desires.
