When the story begins without its hero

Kimihiko Kimizuka has always been a magnet for trouble and intrigue. For as long as he can remember, he's been stumbling across murder scenes or receiving mysterious attache cases to transport. When he met Siesta, a brilliant detective fighting a secret war against an organization of pseudohumans, he couldn't resist the call to become her assistant and join her on an epic journey across the world... Until a year ago, that is. Now he's returned to a life that is normal and tepid by comparison, knowing the adventure must be over. After all, the detective is already dead.

Siesta and Kimihiko's first meeting did not take place during that fateful plane hijacking but rather four years earlier, when the Federation Government tasked Siesta with locating a spy in Japan. During her undercover investigation, she happened upon her future assistant, who had a connection with the spy she was looking for. With Kimihiko as her only lead, she enlisted his help in the search. But Siesta hid her identity with constant disguises, so unbeknownst to Kimihiko, he had already met the Ace Detective. Finally, the story of their true encounter--and the reason behind Siesta's invitation to Kimihiko on that day in the sky--is revealed in this prequel!

But a year later, one girl's passion set it in motion again. After many battles and sacrifices, a miracle was granted. Now that it's all over, Kimihiko Kimizuka is basking in the ordinary life that comes afterward. (Am I okay with that, you ask? Sure. It's not like I'm causing trouble for anybody. I mean, it's true, isn't it? The detective is already--)

"Let's go on a journey to unlock the world's secrets."

Kimihiko Kimizuka was once the assistant to two Ace Detectives, and after achieving a miracle, the sequel to the story was ordinary life. The Ritual of Sacred Return was supposed to be the moment world peace was achieved--but instead, it was discovered that something was wrong with the memories of the world. As the search for the truth begins, it seems Kimihiko's memories of his brief but extraordinary adventure with another Tuner, Rill, may hold the key...
