Inspired by the Finnish epic The Kalevala, the story opens with a down-on-his luck novice blacksmith named Kai whose girlfriend, Ronja, leaves him. Ronja tries to dispose of his collection of Asian artifacts and what appears to be an urn full of ashes at an antique dealer. The ashes are his burned up hair and nail clippings, used by blacksmiths to prevent rust. This sets off a mythical series of events that holds Ronja back from leaving town. The ashes open a mythical chest, which causes Kai to remember a past life where he was a half-Chinese half-Finnish warrior named Sintai, fated to battle a demon in ancient China, threatening to enslave all of humankind.

Umezawa Rika travaille dans une banque où clients et supérieurs ont une bonne opinion d'elle mais reste assez incomprise par son mari. Elle finit un jour par se laisser tenter par une aventure avec Hirabayashi Kota, un étudiant largement plus jeune qu'elle et petit-fils d'un de ses clients. Kota est endetté jusqu'au cou et Rika, prise de pitié par sa situation et également dégoutée par les montants faramineux qui lui passent entre les mains dans le cadre de son travail, lui prête une forte somme d'argent qu'elle a détournée en profitant de sa situation à la banque. Mais Rika vient alors de mettre la main dans un engrenage fatal. Elle multiplie les vols pour s'inventer un train de vie luxueux devant Kota et n'a d'autre choix que de détourner de plus en plus d'argent. Jusqu'à attirer l'attention de sa collègue Sumi.
