Synopsis[]

The story takes place on a futuristic world called Amoï where the supercomputer Jupiter strictly rules over the society. There are three classes, Elites of Tanagura, Midas Citizens, and Mongrels from Ceres. When Iason Mink, an elite, encounters a lower-class slum mongrel named Riki he decides to forcibly take him as a pet which is taboo in the elite society. Even though Jupiter disapproves Iason decides to keep Riki longer than it is socially approved, at the same time Riki doesn't know what to do, fight against Iason or surrender to him.
