Yakumo Fugii, an ordinary Japanese student, inherits the care of Pai, a young girl from Nepal, from his dying archaeologist father. But Pai is more than she innocently appears to be. She is the last of a vanished magical race known as the Sanjiyan Unkara, or Triclops, and is in a desperate hunt against the forces of darkness to find the Ningen no Zou (Statue of Humanity) to turn her human. Yakumo nearly dies in a fight against a demon and to save him, Pai turns him into a Wu, a zombie bound to her service who cannot die. Yakumo and Pai travel to Hong Hong to meet with Ling Ling Lee, a colleague of his father's, to track down the statue. But, the demons of the dark lord Kaiyan Wang are already there to retrieve it...whatever the cost.

Yakumo, Pai, and the crew of Monster Buster, Inc celebrate their recapture of the statue at Madame Huang's estate, but the party is spoiled by a gruesome challenge delivered by a powerful Wu of Kaiyan Wang's. Pai meets the Wu for a showdown at Aberdeen Harbor and half the harbor is destroyed in the aftermath. How will Yakumo continue on without the anchor of his life?

Yakumo and Pai return to Hong Kong when the Statue of Humanity turns up in the possession of Steve Long, another Monster Buster, Inc colleague. Before they can reach it, Steve and the statue are kidnapped. Yakumo, Pai, Ling Ling, and Steve's sister Meixing attempt a rescue. But it's all a trap to catch Pai, the statue, and Meixing in a human sacrifice to release the dark spirit of Kaiyan Wang!

Yakumo and Pai return to Japan from Hong Kong after the Statue of Humanity disappears from the mysterious Mrs. Huang's mansion. Yakumo returns to school and his friends in the hopes of resuming a normal life. But nothing is normal when you're an undead zombie bound to a magical being and demons start attacking your schoolmates on the playground!

The time for the resurrection of the dark lord Kuei-Yan-Wang draws near, as does the end of the world. Yakuma Fuji searches for the holder of his soul so he can become human again, but first must take part in an epic battle full of ancient mysticism and blood and thunder.

As Yakumo and Pai embark on a quest to unlock Pai's hidden memories they unleash the full extent of her power. They team up with a magical monk and a disreputable treasure hunter as they try to find the Lost City of the Sanjiyan - before the ultimate battle begins.

Yakumo and Pai's quest coming towards a conclusion as they embark on the most dangerous part of their journey. They arrive at the Sacred Gate of Lost Time where they must journey into the dark past of the Sanjigan people. The final battle fast approaches, and the forces of darkness continue to build their power, so it is down to Pai's powers to make sure good triumphs over evil.
