00:40but he's got something else up his sleeve.
00:42He's got this amazing superhuman ability to flee,
00:45hide, and dodge every enemy attack with smoothly.

01:53and almost fragile immortals.

01:57to make Dragon Keeper look cool in the eyes of the public
02:00and become a role model hero.
02:01Reenacted their defeat to the Keepers for a long time,
02:04Fighter D, who was part of the foot soldier armies,
02:07finally rebelled and decided to take revenge
02:10by fighting the rangers in various ways,
02:12including betraying his true existence at the cruel hands of humans.

02:21and uses devious means to achieve what he wants,
02:24leaves the Red Zone in an attempt to overturn his fate.
02:29It's a bit underrated,
02:30but it has a great story full of intrigue,
02:32betrayal and the main heroine's personal struggle

02:39in a world filled with darkness from Two-Face Liar.

05:23while most of them were shown to have exceptional skills.
05:25Touka was underestimated and banished by everyone.

05:33and got banished into disposal ruins where nobody ever survived.
05:36But unexpectedly, his innate ability activated when he managed to survive a near-death experience.
05:42Fueled by rage, Touka's presence will astonish everyone with his new abilities
05:46and cunning persona as a hero hunter.
