The shock of being beaten by his father causes him to regain the memories of being an ordinary businessman in a previous life and that he had been reincarnated into this world. Torque and his friends arrive at the impoverished village of his mother's homeland, but the villagers treat him and his mother coldly, and the mother falls ill.

Then, he meets the "spirit" who lives in the village. This is the beginning of a warm fantasy story about a young man advancing in life.
