【Disappearing Holy Lance Arc Sypnosis】
After Kojou and Yukina won the battle with Vatler over the “Holy Lance”.
Kojou who became the substantial ruler of the island, Itogami Island and made it his own “Empire Of The Dawn”,
spent the same daily life as before.
Amidst that, the Lion King organization and the Taishi Bureau conducts a joint investigation,
regarding an unknown accident that happened in the waters around Itogami island.
On the other side, Kojou awakens through his own voice.
The scenery that first leaped onto Kojou’s vision while his memories are still hazy,
