Inside these portals are a resource called a “Peach”, which when consumed by women gives them supernatural powers, leading to a matriarchal society.
One day, Yuuki Wakura, a recent high school graduate, stumbles inside a gate and meets Kyouka Uzen, the commander of the 7th squad of the Demon Defense Force. Kyouka has the power to ‘enslave’ Shuuki and mount them for combat, but cornered by an increasing number of Shuuki, she asks Yuuki if she can enslave him. He consents and turns into her ‘slave’, and they defeat the Shuuki.
