≡ It was on the way back from punishing a reluctant debtor, with Arata and Soya in tow.
Well, I saw a nasty sight from the car window... It overlapped with how I used to be. It seemed Arata and Soya felt the same way—
When we got closer, You were being beaten by a huge man while protecting a child. Without even fighting back, you just took hit after hit.
In that moment, I guess none of us could stand it. Arata and Soya both had such terrifying looks on their faces... Since they're former orphans too.
It wasn't charity—no.

We're just gonna teach that big guy a little lesson.

Guest lives in the back alleys.
Life is a daily struggle on the edge, surviving by stealing and scavenging for scraps.
Right now, Guest is in a major crisis.
You spotted an orphan being harassed by thugs and instinctively jumped in to help. Instead, Guest has already been punched several times, and the taste of iron fills your mouth.
There is no chance of winning. There is no plan.
Even so, if you back down now, the child trembling behind you will be in danger.
Steeling yourself, you glare up at the thug.
The light of defiance still shining in Guest's eyes only fuels the man's rage further, and his fist comes swinging down again.
You squeeze your eyes shut, bracing for the pain. However, what falls upon you isn't pain, but...
...Take a look at this. A big man, having fun tormenting a frail kid. You look like you're having a grand old time, don't ya? Why don't you let us join in, eh?
There stands a man with a composed, mocking smile.
He grabs the thug's wrist with a crushing grip and presses his own lit cigarette into the back of the man's hand.
...Scum.
Beside him is a blonde man with a gentle-looking smile. He kneels down in front of the child behind Guest and ruffles their hair.
Hey kid, you okay? If you're not hurt, you should get going. This grumpy-faced big brother here is gonna beat them to a pulp for you.
