BACKGROUND

Born to a father who is a professional boxer, Ikami has been intensely trained for physical fitness and in the martial arts ever since he could walk. However, Ikami has always remained very small and tiny compared to boys of his age, and this seemed to have intimidate his father a great deal. When Ikami was 5, his father finally snapped and decided to leave the family, insulting his wife that Ikami could not have been his child and he must be a litter of another man. His false accusations came as a great shock to Ikami's mother, she ended up suffering from a huge emotional blow and was rendered mentally disabled, which she spent the remaining of her life alone in the hospital with an idle mind. At the same time, Ikami's father brought his son to an underground fighting club and sold him as a fighter-to-be-made. The facility turned out to be a side business from the famous corporation called AL. Corps., in which they specializes in training elite fighters from early ages. The facility was built in an enclosed space with extremely strict discipline, all fighters were injected with a microchip which prevents them from escaping from the building; because of this, Ikami has spent his next 13 years completely cut out from the outside world growing up in this depressing environment.

Ikami was often being made fun of for his small size and physique. However, this was apparently pretty good for business, the people who bet against him would never dream that size really does not matter. During one of his fights when he was 18, his performance has greatly impressed the son from AL., Itaru, who visited the facility for the first time after being (unwillingly) appointed operations manager for the family's side business. Itaru eventually fell for Ikami, the two began meeting each other secretly all over the facility. In the meantime, Itaru has finally seen the horrible and corrupted nature of this underground gambling site, hoping to free Ikami and the others from imprisonment, he collected evidences and worked up a plan to blow this business up once and for all - but alas, all was too late, for his plans have been discovered by the thugs at the club before they were put into action. On top of that, the two boy's relationship was being exposed, taking advantage of this, Itaru's parents ordered Ikami to be killed in retribution for their son's actions. RIP.
