A chance encounter intertwines her fate with the super-rich inventor, Uzal Delilah, and her lovable and grumpy companion, Clarion, who is also a cyborg just like Nene.
Nene is happy to make friends, but there’s more to Uzal and Clarion – and the island of Cenancle itself – beyond what you see. When a super-powered terrorist threatens Cenancle, Uzal declares that the only way to avert disaster is for Nene to team up with Clarion and use their synergy – abilities Nene has never even known. know I have!
