Sinners are individuals who have committed unforgivable sins and are branded with thorns after death. Sin Eaters, on the other hand, take on the sins and punishments of these sinners to prevent them from descending into Hell. Rukiko, a humble village girl, aims to safeguard Raika, known as the Fire of God and the prized possession of her beloved village, from Gaii, a Sin Eater seeking a chance at redemption. Upon learning Gaii's story, Rukiko's feelings begin to shift. However, Angel Musa, the divine servant who guided her mother to Heaven, warns her against sympathizing with Gaii, insisting it is God's will. Who can Rukiko trust? (source: Translation Texts)
