Synopsis
Apprentice Beet trains to become a legendary Vandel Buster and fight demonic Vandels.
In a world shrouded by darkness, humanity cowers under the shadow of the Vandels—demonic overlords who command monstrous hordes. Standing against them are the Vandel Busters, elite warriors sworn to protect the innocent. Among these heroes, none are more legendary than the Zenon Squad, whose name is whispered with awe across the continent. Young Beet, a spirited boy with an unbreakable spirit, burns with admiration for these champions and dreams of one day fighting alongside them. Though he begins as a mere apprentice, destiny has marked him for a greater path—one that will test his courage and forge him into a beacon of hope against the encroaching night. Armed with unwavering determination and the legacy of his heroes, Beet embarks on an epic journey to challenge the darkness and restore light to the world.
