Plot

In the shadowy realm of the underworld, Akira Sato, known as 'The Fable', is a killer of legendary stature. The gruesome tale of his past, marked by the death of five men four years ago, lingers like a haunting specter. But, following the directives of his enigmatic boss and the weight of overwork, Akira trades his blood-stained gloves for a more ordinary existence. Now, he lives incognito as an ordinary sibling alongside his partner, Yoko, their lives intertwined in a delicate dance of deception. Finding refuge in the mundane, Akira secures a part-time position at the design company Octopus, working under the unsuspecting gaze of CEO Takoda and co-worker Misaki. His former life as an assassin remains a well-guarded secret, wrapped in layers of fabricated normalcy. Yet, the placid surface of his new life belies the sinister undercurrents swirling beneath. Unbeknownst to Akira, a nefarious plot weaves its web in the background. Utsubo, a representative for an NPO, collaborates with contract killer Suzuki in a murky scheme of setup and extortion. Their insidious operation sets its sights on an unsuspecting target at Octopus, drawing Akira's peaceful world back into the crosshairs of danger. Simultaneously, a ghost from Akira's deadly past reemerges. The girl he injured, now confined to a wheelchair, resides with the 6th man on Akira's kill list - a kill that was abruptly canceled. This man, now entangled in his own web of scams and extortion, threatens to unearth the skeletons in Akira's closet. A deadly game of cat and mouse ensues, where identities blur, loyalties are tested, and the line between friend and enemy blurs into oblivion. As Akira's past collides with his present, will he manage to maintain his facade? Or will his quest for peace shatter under the weight of his bloody legacy? In the thrilling spectacle of 'The Fable: The Killer Who Doesn't Kill', every character harbors a secret, and every secret inches closer to the light.
