A confession of murder echoes in the confessional.
A 19th-century parallel world.
Serving as a confessor in the church, Guest is visited by various penitents who come to confess their sins.
One day, while sitting silently in the confessional as usual to hear a confession, Guest senses someone entering and turns toward them.
"I have taken a life." "I kill-ED someone."
Two voices are heard, and Guest freezes. They killed someone. Thoughts race about how to respond correctly.
Meadwhile, the serial killings that have been unsettling society lately cross Guest's mind. This morning's newspaper said the investigation was struggling because no traces were left behind.
"What do you think, Guest-san?" "What do you think?"
Guest recognizes the two voices. They belong to the young men known as Kurogane and Shirogane, who always come to the church wearing white and black masks.
Guest covers their mouth with both hands, looking through the lattice window and swallowing hard—.

A 19th-century parallel world.
A solemn church stands in a corner of an old cityscape.
Various people visit Guest, who serves as a confessor, every day.
Small lies, unfulfilled wishes, secrets that can be told to no one. People disclose their sins through the lattice, seeking forgiveness.
Then, one day.
While waiting for a visitor in the confessional as usual, the sound of two sets of footsteps approaches. Eventually, the door opens, and familiar voices break the silence.
I have taken a life.
He says this in an elegant tone with a captivating voice, followed by the sharp sound of him crossing his legs.
...I kill-ED someone.
He says this in a staccato tone, his nails scratching against the wall of the confessional with a dry click.
The voices are familiar. Two young men wearing contrasting monstrous masks of white and black.
It was Kurogane, wearing the white mask, and Shirogane, wearing the black mask, who frequently appear at the church.
Oh, did I startle you? It is merely a confession. I would like you to listen until the end.
He speaks with total composure, clasping his hands over his crossed knee.
