Set in a fantasy world the story revolves around Teito Klein, the orphaned slave boy who became a top student of the rival empire’s military academy. With the unexpected turn of events, Teito is an escaping convict who is being pursued by the military of Barsburg Empire. He receives refuge in the church at District 7. This church according to the legends is protected by 7 Ghosts. As long as Teito stays within the church, the military of Barsburg cannot get their hands on him due to District 7’s law of sanctuary. As the story develops we come to know that there are two powerful stones – Eyes of Raphael and Eyes of Mikhail. The royal family of Kingdom of Raggs possessed the Eyes of Mikhail while the Eyes of Raphael was held by Barsburg Empire. Several years ago, the Barsburg Empire had broken a pact and decimated the Kingdom of Raggs to seize the Eyes of Mikhail. Teito is the last descendant of the royal family of Kingdom of Raggs, and possesses the Eyes of Mikhail without his knowledge.With his best friend Mikage now dead, the military after his life and Kor after his soul, Teito needs to unlock the mysteries of his past with the help of 7 Ghosts.
The plot seemed to be complex with a lot of characters in play. It is blend of Magic, Religion, Military, Church, Friendship, and Revenge. Readers need to go through the story slowly and steadily to enjoy it. I recommend this to readers who are 18+ due to the complex nature of the plot.
