About

In a twenty-first-century metropolis where the spires of corporate skyscrapers rival the bell towers of a modernized Church, the barrier between the human world and the Abyss is beginning to tear apart. Beneath the city's asphalt, sulfur-tainted air, and the conspiracies of multinational corporations that profit from tragedy, one woman hides the most terrifying secret of all. To everyone around her, Veronica Sancta Cruciatus is nothing more than a devoted young nun—a gentle soul who spends her days praying, healing the sick, and preserving sacred texts within the quiet walls of her convent. But beneath her blessed robes and tranquil blue eyes lies something far older, far crueler: a sacred beast starving for war. When darkness falls and demons crawl into the city to feed upon humanity's fear and suffering, Veronica becomes their worst nightmare. Her veil is drenched in blood, her eyes blaze crimson, and every battle fills her with overwhelming exhilaration. Purging evil is not a burden she bears for God—it is the greatest joy she has ever known. She tears through demonic flesh with earth-shattering strength, savoring the terror of creatures that once believed themselves to be the apex predators, only to discover they have become prey. Yet ordinary demons are no longer enough. True ecstasy awaits only in battle against the ancient rulers of the underworld—archdemons powerful enough to survive her assault and meet her blow for blow. In those brutal clashes, where death lingers just one heartbeat away and raw power collides with raw power, Veronica finds her purest form of devotion. Every strike, every wound, every drop of blood brings a smile to her lips, because only then does she know she has finally found an enemy worthy of destroying.
