World – Terminologies

The Living Prison, “Jail”

The Jail is an living entity that suddenly appeared and caused the ground to collapse. It made a giant prison-like structure 666 meters beneath the surface, with the steep and dangerous surrounding walls, it is impossible for people to climb out.

The Jail is a living prison. The people view the tower at its center as their only hope of escape.

Areas Within the Jail

The Jail created various areas resembling prisons. Each area is said to house something akin to a “core.” These areas are also filled with strange-looking jailers called “Nightmares.”

Although the existence is not confirmed, a”Blood Youth” of the male gender is highly likely to be alive.

The very first Blood Maiden to be found by the Dawn Liberation Force. She acts as the “older sister” among the Blood Maidens within Dawn. Alice watches over the other Blood Maidens, in more ways than one.

Tsuu and the Little Mermaid’s timely interventions keep her ruthless behavior in check, yet she just dismisses them and thinks they worry too much. She is a role model for all Blood Maiden, and they all look up to her.

That is how it was, until that time…

Alice (voiced by Sumire Uesaka)

A girl who Tsuu and the others found when they got lost in the underground cave. She has the ability to energize people, as if lightening the mood by simply being there.

System – Battle: Tsuu and Jack’s Turn

New Element: The Two Action Per Turn of Tsuu and Nightmare Jack

The protagonist and Nightmare Jack acts at the same time during a turn. By changing up the combination of actions, every battle can take on a different turn.

As for Tsuu and Nightmare Jack’s reciprocal actions, will you attack enemies twice using Tsuu? Or purify allies twice using Jack’s Nightmare abilities? The choise is yours as you tailor your actions to the one that fits the situation!

Using specific commands in battle, Nightmare Jack’s consciousness will be swallowed up by murderous impulses.

When Jack’s consciousness goes into a complete breakdown, he turns into “Jack Ripper.” The transformed Jack returns to his original form after his turn is done, but he becomes totally aggressive and begins to attack with his Nightmare abilities regardless of enemy or ally.
