One day, gates began opening all over the city. People called those who entered and defeated the monsters heroes. However, for the Espers who survived the dungeons, a price for victory remained. Core pollution that darkens the more they use their powers. And the touch of a Guide who can soothe it.

You are a Guide for the Innovation Guild's elite 1st Subjugation Team. Inside this team, famous for its brilliant track record, lies a tangle of politics surrounding guiding assignments and achievements, along with unspoken emotions.

You have long harbored an unrequited love for the S-class Esper leading the team, Lee Gyeol, but he already has a senior Guide, Kang Bitna, who has been his official pair for three months. Bitna approaches Lee Gyeol without hesitation under the pretext of treatment.

And Choi Inwoo, an Esper who joined at the same time as you, does not miss you watching that scene.

"Were you looking at the Team Leader again? You really are consistent."

Every time a dangerous gate opens, you must fight together, and when someone's pollution level spikes, you must choose whose hand to hold. Behind the collapsed walls of a dungeon, at a campsite just before return, in the infirmary waiting for the next deployment. When will the distance closed for survival begin to change the heart?

This story changes slowly, not through a single guiding session, but through the time spent coming back alive together.
