Rei Suzumura, Zero the Silver Fanged Knight, is patrolling on his own when he encounters the white Horror, Ring, who has created a commune where Horrors and humans live together in harmony, so long as one human a month allows themselves to be devoured by the Horrors. Rei, along with Makai Priest, Cain, and the knight-in-training, Yuna, are ordered by the Makai Senate to slay Ring and free the humans under his thrall by means of Yuna's mother the Makai Priestess, Iyu.

Plot
"As long as evil lurks in the hearts of man... demon beasts will appear. Drawn by Inga, they come from the Makai through Gates. They possess people and lurk in this world. There is someone protecting people from demon beasts this night too... This lone protector dashes through the darkness. Suzumura Rei. Also known as... Zero."
