The Vermillion Mask is described as follows:
The Mask of the Warrior God, the Mask of the Spider, the Mask of the Flame Dragon, the Mask of Courage, the Vermilion Mask―
“The “masks” grant power to those who wear them.
Sometimes they unlock limitless potential―other times, they unleash unimaginable calamity.
Peru, apprentice to the legendary mask artisan Gaston Lou,
loses control when possessed by the “Mask of the Warrior God.”In his frenzied state, he accidentally kills both his companions and his master.
Crushed by despair, Peru resolves to destroy every mask crafted by his late master, now scattered across the world.
He embarks on a journey of atonement, confronting the weight of his sins.
“Calling it atonement probably makes it sound noble,
but let’s be real―it’s nothing that fancy.”Encounters with friends, clashes with formidable foes―.
The Mask Battle Fantasy Begins!
