Then, one day, a mysterious woman gives him an LBX named Achilles, saying that the fate of the world rests in it. He also learns from her that his father is still alive, and finds out about a secret conspiracy involving the government. What he doesn't know is that his LBX holds the key to the fate of the entire world. He soon finds himself caught in the midst of a vast conspiracy for global domination with the highest ranks of power.
