GANGSTA. ギャングスタ
Nicholas Brown and Worick Arcangelo, known in the city of Ergastalum as the "Handymen," are mercenaries for hire who take on jobs no one else can handle. Contracted by powerful mob syndicates and police alike, the Handymen have to be ready and willing for anything. After completing the order of killing a local pimp, the Handymen add Alex Benedetto—a prostitute also designated for elimination—to their ranks to protect her from forces that want her gone from the decrepit hellhole of a city she has...
Mercenaries protect a doomed prostitute while a city of super‑humans spirals toward war.
In the rain‑slick streets of Ergastalum, two hardened mercenaries—Nicholas "Nick" Brown, a calm‑headed sniper, and Worick Arcangelo, a hulking brawler with a tragic past—operate as the city’s unofficial problem‑solvers. Hired by both the underworld’s syndicates and the corrupt police, they take on jobs that skirt the line between legal and lethal, from extracting informants to eradicating rogue elements that threaten the fragile peace. Their latest contract forces them to eliminate a notorious pimp, but the job spirals when they discover Alex Benedetto, a resilient prostitute marked for death, hiding in the shadows. Instead of killing her, the Handymen decide to shield Alex, pulling her into their dangerous world as they navigate a maze of double‑crosses and hidden agendas. Ergastalum itself is a dying neon graveyard, once a sanctuary for the "Twilights"—humans altered by a mysterious drug into super‑powered beings. Now, a ruthless anti‑Twilight faction stalks the city, hunting these altered individuals with brutal efficiency. As the Handymen juggle their mercenary gigs, they become unwilling participants in a looming war between the Twilights, the criminal syndicates, and the city’s own corrupt institutions. The balance of power teeters on a knife‑edge, and every choice could tip Ergastalum into outright chaos.
