Perfect for you if...

You love sci-fi worldbuilding that feels alien and oppressive, where the environment itself is as much a character as the people.
You appreciate manga that trusts readers to piece together the story from visuals and sparse dialogue.
You're drawn to protagonists who barely speak but whose actions carry enormous weight.

Maybe not for you if...

You need clear exposition and dialogue-heavy storytelling to follow a plot.
You prefer character backstories spelled out rather than inferred from context and design.
You're uncomfortable with grotesque body horror and unsettling creature design.

About this book

In a distant future, Earth contains a sprawling city so vast and chaotic that its residents have lost knowledge of what land is. Within this immense megastructure, a silent and stoic character named Kyrii searches for the Net Terminal Gene—a genetic mutation that once enabled humans to access the cybernetic NetSphere. Equipped with a Graviton Beam Emitter, Kyrii battles repeated attacks from humans, cyborgs, and silicon-based lifeforms. During his journey, Kyrii meets a skilled scientist whose body has deteriorated from prolonged captivity. She offers to assist Kyrii in locating the Net Terminal Gene, provided she can first resolve a personal matter of her own.
