Primordial six volume 1: Beginning of a cycle end of another (Hardcover)

In a savage world dominated by powerful monsters known as 'mana beasts' who have the ability to use magic, the magicless people who live there are protected by their military and local adventurers.

While the adventurers are tasked with smaller, less dangerous tasks, it is the military's job to handle the truly dangerous missions that range from defending their cities from being ravaged and destroyed, to the ultimate and most deadly task of containing a mysterious miasma blighting the centre of the continent that corrupts and mutates all who come into contact with it, changing them into blood thirsty creatures, far deadlier than any mana beast.

As humanity was on the brink of destruction, a glimmer of hope was found in the form of a rare, legendary crystal known as a 'Primordial fragment' was discovered with their existence being kept secret and only known to a select few.

Those who were lucky enough to wield one of these scarce crystals, gained the rare ability to manipulate and use a single element of magic, just like the mana beasts, helping them stand on equal footing with them and making them vital for fighting the creatures that spawned from the miasma.

Those with this ability came to be known as 'style users'.

However, with new power, comes those who want it for themselves as overtime, when word inevitably got out to other nations about these divine relics, new wars were sparked adding to the ongoing threat. 

As time went on with fragments being lost and changing owners, a girl named Hikari Machizuki, a pure, kind hearted person who was plagued with a people pleasing attitude and other problems brought on by her traumatic past, obtained one of these fragments and was captured by her military and forcefully recruited.

With no choice but to join the military, along with five other individuals subjected to the same fate, as Hikari, they are placed in a specialised unit that would be known as 'the primordial six' with the ultimate mission of purging the miasma once and for all. 

Can Hikari and the other five cure the miasma? or will they too be added to the ranks of the malicious zombies that spawn from its obscuring embrace.
