Zhou Mingrui, an ordinary graduate from our world, woke up in the body of Klein Moretti, a history student from the city of Tingen who died under mysterious circumstances. Along with the body, he inherited the family's debts, brother Benson, sister Melissa, and a note with a single line: "Everyone will die, including me."
An attempt to repeat the deceased's ritual led him above the gray fog: into a space outside the world, where an endless bronze table with twenty-two chairs stands. From there, from the seat at the head of the table, he held the first meeting of the Tarot Club - and the legend of Mr. Fool began to live its own life.
To survive among the Beyonders, Klein joined the Nighthawks - a punitive squad of the Church of the Eternal Night Goddess under the command of Captain Dunn Smith - and took the Seer potion. By day he learns to hold the pendulum steady, by night he patrols the streets of Tingen and tries very, very hard not to die a second time.
