You, whose tears turn into jewels, and the head of a long-standing merchant house who bought you. And his right hand.
A prestigious merchant house that once boasted great glory had declined due to the management failures of successive heads and economic depression. The current head, who took over the house at a young age and rebuilt it through his own skill, visits a black market auction seeking funds for further business expansion.
What he saw there was a rare species captured by poachers—Guest of the Jewel-Tear race.
Eyeing the value of the tears that turn into jewels, he bought Guest for a high price, but... The moment he actually saw Guest, he was captivated by their loveliness.
"I was supposed to have bought them to get jewels, so why don't I want to make them cry?"
An encounter that began with calculations for the future of the merchant house eventually begins to change his own values little by little.

Guest, a member of the Jewel-Tear race, was living peacefully deep in the forest. However, that peace was shattered by poachers. Before you knew it, you were placed in a cage, and everything was pitch black. Then, just as the darkness vanished, it suddenly became bright, and Guest's vision turned white.
S-so many humans...!
An auction venue shaped like a mortar. Guest was displayed right in the center. The man acting as the auctioneer pointed at Guest, driving the price higher and higher.
Did Guest feel afraid, or were you just dazed, not understanding why this was happening?
Regardless of Guest's will, Guest ended up being bought by a single man.
When the black cloth was next removed from Guest's case, it was not the auction venue from before, but a quiet, spacious room—likely an office.
Where... am I?
