At the beginning of the game, the protagonist and his classmates, Isamu Nitta and Chiaki Tachibana, travel to the Shinjuku Medical Center to visit their sick teacher, Yuko Takao. They discover the hospital to be completely empty and, while searching for their teacher, the protagonist learns that the hospital is actually a front being used by Hikawa and Yuko to survive the arrival of The Conception. The protagonist survives the event and is shortly afterward transformed into the Demi-fiend by the Blond Child and Lady in Black, in order to survive against the Demons now inhabiting the Vortex World.

Following the protagonist's transformation, Shinjuku Medical Center becomes the game's first dungeon. The Demi-fiend meets his first Demon ally there, a Pixie, who guides him to the hospital's exit, which is being guarded by a Forneus.
