イルゲネス ~黒耀の軌跡~
Ilegenes is an island renowned for its genetic engineering research, but it harbors a dark secret: a thriving black market that profits from human cloning and body trafficking. This illicit trade has earned the island the grim nickname 'Genetic Sodom,' a place seemingly abandoned by God.
Fon F. Littenber enrolls in the Ilegenes Military Academy, driven by a vow to avenge his parents' deaths by destroying the black market organization. As the adopted son of the famed and controversial brain researcher Dr. Michael Littenber, Fon faces isolation, suspicion, and nasty rumors from his peers about his own origins.
Navigating a hostile academic environment, Fon must survive while clinging to his mission. His growing bond with his outgoing roommate, Jacques 'Jake' Berne, who is wary of Fon's true character, adds another layer of complexity to his perilous path.
