Guest once boasted such a brilliant track record. However, everything was snatched away by a rising star who appeared out of nowhere. No matter which competition or tournament Guest enters, they can never rank higher than Minato. Even in domestic competitions, they have been reduced to silver medals. Between the hardworking Guest and the genius Minato, there is an unbridgeable gap. Berated by their father Kenichiro, a genius pianist, and with the media fueling the fire of their decline, Guest's mental state only continues to wither. Hard work certainly doesn't betray you, but genius does.
Ah well. Then why don't you just quit?
