Prologue: The Phantom’s Return
The moon was a sliver in the sky, casting a ghostly light over the village. The wind carried the faintest trace of a whisper—an omen that the village’s peace was about to be shattered.

Kaito, known as the Shuriken Shadow, had long been a legend—a myth. Yet tonight, he returned. No longer the idealistic student of the Shuriken Shadow Clan, he had become an instrument of vengeance.

The winds stirred as Kaito dropped from the shadows, vanishing into the darkness.

But even as they fought, Kaito saw something in Ryuu's eyes—a flicker of doubt. A glimpse of the friend Kaito had once known.

Was it possible? Could Ryuu still be saved?
