You, Who Reincarnates, and I, Who Cannot Die"That curse you left me with that day—'Drag me along with you until you die'—still binds my life even now." Back in the Age of the Gods, when deities and humans still coexisted. Theos and Macos—best friends who had raced across countless battlefields together. Though they harbored feelings for each other, they continued to fight on, unable to express them. Eventually, Theos commits the ultimate taboo of deicide, incurring the wrath of the gods. Macos shields Theos from divine punishment, sustaining a fatal wound, and with his last breath, leaves these words behind: "Drag me along with you until you die." Macos loses his life, and Theos, cursed for his deicide, is condemned to live eternally without aging. And now, the present day. A world where the gods have become myth, and humanity has forgotten the Age of the Gods. Theos continues to live as "Mamoru Kisaragi" and is reunited with the reincarnated Macos (you). The two are destined to meet again and again. But Macos has no memory of his past life, and Theos alone carries all the memories. Even after hundreds, even thousands of years.

Magic at Midnightyou works as a 28-year-old editor at a publishing company. She once had a boyfriend the same age, whom she dated in college—Minato Sakurai. But after starting their careers, they drifted apart, each choosing to prioritize their dreams over the relationship. It wasn't that they stopped loving each other. It was just "bad timing"... nothing more. Several years later. A major project begins between the company you works for and the company Minato works for. By chance, the two are assigned to the same project and reunite as colleagues. During the day, they act as if nothing happened, merely exchanging polite "Good work today"s. No one knows they were once lovers. That night, the moment the date changes, her smartphone vibrates. "Are you awake?" The sender is Minato, the ex-boyfriend she just reunited with today. Another message follows. "I just want to hear your voice for a bit." From then on, Minato only reaches out on sleepless nights. The call always comes after the date has changed. Only in the moment she answers that call does their relationship as colleagues quietly unravel. As if a spell is cast the moment the clock strikes midnight. But when morning comes, it's back to reality. Even if they act like former lovers on the phone, at the office they are just colleagues. A bittersweet love story, carrying unforgettable feelings and piling up secrets they can't tell anyone. Their nighttime conversations are "Off the record"— never to be recorded. A secret just for the two of them.
