【story】
19-year-old Louis (Yoshitaka Yuriko) meets Ama (Kengo Kora), a man with a snake's tongue, piercings in his face, and a dragon tattoo on his back. However, on the other hand, Louis begins to have a relationship with the sadist carver Shiva (ARATA) whom he met in his introduction. Louis opens a pierced earring on his tongue, carves a tattoo of a dragon and a kirin on his back, and runs to remodel his body so that he can be pushed. Then, after receiving two kinds of love from the two men, he entrusts himself to pain and pleasure, but one day the incident caused by Ama causes the fate of the three to reach an unexpected end ... ・.
