Noir is not physically that strong. But he has a power to meet with a great sage which can answer any of his questions but there is side effect of meeting the great sage. When he meets with the great sage, his head blasts with pain. Now to decrease the headache here comes her childhood friend Emma. She is a kind hearted person who treats everyone equally. Emma lets Noir kiss her because she believes that doing this reduces Noir's headache.

One day Noir decides to ask the great sage how to get stronger. The great sage told him to go in a secret dungeon which has been locked for several decades.
