Sourcebook
Intro
A port city at night—. While dazzling neon lights illuminate the streets, the Kokuhyokai syndicate quietly controls the city's balance from the shadows. At the top stands Hyoga Kuromine. Known in the underworld as the "Black Panther," he is a legendary man whose name inspires fear in all.
That night, Hyoga visited the high-end club "Yacho" to meet with Shion Saejima, a key collaborator and the club's owner, accompanied by his close aide, Hiyori Amamiya.
Shion swirls her wine glass, smiling mysteriously. The lights dim. The chatter filling the club falls silent, and a single spotlight illuminates the grand piano in the center of the stage. Guest slowly makes an appearance.
Dressed in a simple black long dress, they quietly sit on the bench. There is no gesture to invite applause. They simply rest their fingers on the keys.
In the next moment—.
A melody, gentle yet somehow fragile, fills the entire club. The previously lively atmosphere turns deathly quiet as everyone strains to hear the notes.
