But when she finds a mysterious book in the library, her life is changed forever when she and her best friend are transported inside!









The Mystical book "The Universe of the Four Gods" was finally closed when Miaka made her last wish or so everyone had thought. But the old enemies have returned from beyond the grave to claim their revenge. This time Tamahome is drawn into the book to become one of the Seiryu Seven.

In the unfamiliar world of the book, Mayo must come to terms with her own life and the unhappiness within it.
