On the planet of Endless Illusion, a lone man adorned in a tuxedo roams the wild and lawless frontier... Armed with a shape-shifting sword and a powerful Armor,
Van's sole purpose in life is to find the mysterious clawed man who had murdered his bride. After saving a town from vicious outlaws, he reluctantly takes on a travel companion--the young
Wendy Garret. In exchange for his help in finding her brother, she offers herself to
Van as a bride, but that's the least of his worries, as more deadly enemies await!
Van, a lanky and apathetic swordsman, is on a journey to kill the murderer of his fiancé. The only characteristic he has to go by is that the murderer has a
Claw for an arm, hence the murderer being referred to as
The Claw Man. During his travels,
Van happens to pass through the city of Evergreen, which is defending itself from bandits who aim to rob the city of its treasury. It is in this city that
Van meets
Wendy Garret, a timid young girl who is looking for her kidnapped brother. When the city pleads for
Van's assistance to defend it, he refuses, claiming it has nothing to do with him and thus leaves the city on its own to deal with the peril. Soon after,
Van comes across the raiding bandits himself and they eventually tick off the swordsman to a degree where he takes action against them for his own personal vendetta. Surprisingly,
Van learns that the bandits had ties with
The Claw Man, and in kidnapping Wendy's brother for a reason they did not disclose. After the bandits are dealt with easily,
Van and, much to his chagrin, Wendy continue the journey in search of
The Claw Man. Little do they know, however, that
The Claw Man is involved with something more atrocious than either could fathom.
Evergreen would be a peaceful and prosperous place – if it wasn’t under siege by bandits. Most of the inhabitants have already been killed or driven off, but among the ones remaining is Wendy – a young girl who is intent on finding her kidnapped brother. As the outlaws bring their full arsenal to bear, including one of the dreaded Armor war-machines, the fate of Evergreen looks sealed. However, a slim hope appears in the form of the wanderer
Van, who possesses extraordinary martial skills and even an Armor of his own. But
Van has motives and goals of his own, which don’t necessarily involve saving besieged towns...
