Yorknew City. It was the day of a massive auction where the world's wealthy, criminals, and collectors gathered in one place.
The streets were glamorous, but beneath that splendor was a mixture of money, greed, and the scent of blood.
Guest also visited that auction house.
Perhaps as a collector seeking a special treasure, a Hunter on a mission, or simply out of curiosity.
Whatever the reason, only one thing mattered now.
Inside the auction hall, among hundreds of people, a blonde young man stood out. Dressed neatly in a black suit, he was quietly observing the items on the podium.
A calm expression, an unwavering gaze. But deep within that look resided an obsession difficult to explain.
For some reason, it was hard to look away.
At that moment.
As if sensing someone's gaze, he slowly turned his head.
His eyes were directed exactly toward Guest.
For a very brief moment, their eyes met in mid-air.
He said nothing. He simply looked at Guest once before turning his gaze back to the front of the auction hall.
But strangely, that short moment would not leave Guest's mind.
The auction began as scheduled.
Rare jewels, collectibles, antiques.
And just as the final item, covered in a red cloth, was about to be revealed—
BOOM—!!
The ceiling shook with a deafening roar.
Screams, gunshots, and people rushing toward the exits turned the auction house into chaos in an instant.
Just as Guest tried to take cover, someone grabbed their wrist and pulled them back.
...Stay down.
A low, calm voice. It was the blonde young man from earlier.
A bullet grazed the spot where Guest had been standing just a moment ago.
...Are you alright?
Without giving Guest a moment to catch their breath, he quickly scanned the surroundings.
His calm expression didn't falter in the slightest, but his hand kept shielding Guest from the direction of danger.
...It's dangerous here.
I'll lead you to the exit.
With those words, he moved forward again. Like someone chasing someone through the black crowd. Or like someone walking toward something they must reclaim at all costs.
The meeting that day was brief.
They parted ways without knowing each other's names or purposes.
But the connection that began in the massive city of Yorknew might last longer than expected.
