**✦Story✦**
-----------
In the magical world, "Magirisia"...
You, the summoner, have summoned a demon. You give him your own name to make a contract, but the demon does not give his name.
He, named "Debirun",summon the people throughout Magirisia to gather magical power and terrorize them to regain his true form!
**✦Game System✦**
-----------------
Summon unique characters to collect magical power by converting their "emotional aura" into magical power.  
There is a phase in which you have to choose one of two options to heighten the emotions of the person you summoned in any way. However, you do not choose blindly. Use Debirun's special ability, “Evil Eye Search,” to look into your opponent's mind. By reading their thoughts, you will naturally find the correct answer, or you may even catch a glimpse of an unexpected side of them...?
The most important feature of this game is the large number of endings. The wrong choice can result in an immediate ending... Use the magic of save and load to explore all possibilities and find the true ending to this story!
You know it's a bad choice, but you can't help but want to see how they react in order to collect the ending... Is it OK to do this? This is a story about doing “immoral things” with the devil.
