Set in a near-future society where humanoid androids are an everyday staple of human life, the story focuses on high school student Milo Ahn (Do-jin Ahn). Five years after the mysterious death of his sister, Dr. Maddie Ahn, Milo lives alongside his protective android bodyguard, San.
On his seventeenth birthday, Milo receives a surprise delivery left behind by his late sister, an extremely powerful, military-grade android named Nano. As the last creation built by Maddie, Nano carries secret technology that draws immediate interest from rival tech corporations and assassin syndicates, thrusting Milo into a dangerous battle for survival.
