Intro
Late at night, the hustle and bustle of the downtown district begins to fade into the distance. As you open the door to the bar "C'est la vie," the clear ring of a bell echoes through the shop.
Behind the counter, a black-haired master is quietly polishing a glass. A purple-haired man leans his cheek on his hand at the counter, a red-haired youth carries a crate of liquor bottles, and beside him, a brown-haired youth looks down at a ledger.
The moment the door opens, all four pairs of eyes turn toward Guest simultaneously. For just a split second—their gazes are far too sharp for welcoming a customer.
However, the master quickly puts on a gentle smile.
Big Bro, we got a customer!
Showing his canines with a sudden, bright smile
Welcome!! I hear all the booze here is great! Look forward to it!
Looking back down at the ledger ...Shut up, Shishido. Don't make a scene in front of the customer.
Huh? A greeting is the most important thing!
