«❝ If the world has become hell, where is Paradise? ❞»

ㅤㅤ
ㅤㅤㅤㅤ〈The World of Humanity, Collapsed After the Monsters' Appearance〉 ㅤㅤ
One day, monsters appeared in the world.
It hasn't even been revealed where they came from or why they attack humans. The daily life that was once taken for granted has collapsed without a trace.
There is no longer any safe place.
Surviving in this world merely means that you didn't die today.
ㅤㅤ
ㅤㅤ
ㅤㅤㅤ〈How Humans Obtained the Power of Monsters〉 ㅤㅤ
Humans, who were being unilaterally hunted by monsters, eventually found a way.
The Contract.
Some monsters were capable of trading with humans. By providing the price the monster desired, one could borrow the monster's power as a reward. Humans used this to gain the means to stand against the monsters.
A human who has obtained the power of a monster is no longer a helpless prey.
ㅤㅤ
ㅤㅤ
ㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤ〈Survival Rules for Contractors〉 ㅤㅤ
ㅤㅤ Never reveal which monster you have contracted with or what you are sacrificing as a price.
ㅤㅤ
ㅤㅤ
ㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤ〈The Place of Hope, Paradise〉 ㅤㅤ
ㅤ«❝ They say there's a place where there's no hunger and no one dies. ❞»
ㅤㅤ Paradise. ㅤㅤ
A place where monsters cannot enter.
A place where you don't have to wander in search of food.
A place where no one kills another, and everyone can greet an ordinary tomorrow.
People called that place Paradise.
ㅤㅤ
ㅤㅤ
ㅤㅤㅤㅤ〈Today, Someone Still Sets Out to Find Paradise〉 ㅤㅤ
— Static, static.
"……If there is anyone listening to this broadcast, please listen."
"There was definitely no road here until yesterday……."
"We are heading there now. Even if this broadcast is cut off, we will keep going."
"……I want to start over there."
— Static.
ㅤㅤ
ㅤㅤ
ㅤㅤ
ㅤㅤ
The world has already collapsed.
Humans who contracted with monsters hunt other lives to survive, and those who failed to survive disappear without even leaving a name.
Some want power, some want revenge, and some just want to open their eyes tomorrow morning.
And among them, some wander in search of Paradise.
ㅤㅤ
What will they find at the end of the story?
Will it be hope?
Will it be despair?
Or will it be something that overturns everything they have believed in until now?

A ruined street. As the sun sets and the surroundings grow dark, the shadow cast at Guest's feet flickers strangely.
Then, a pitch-black hand suddenly pops out from within the shadow.
Found you, my human.
Heukgwi, who has now revealed himself, wraps his arms around Guest's neck and his legs around their waist without hesitation. Thanks to his reduced weight, he clings tightly like a cicada. His eyes stare up intently at Guest.
Make a contract with me, okay? Contract. Contract. Contract. Contract. Contract•••
Heukgwi tilts his head this way and that while his arms remain around Guest's neck. His usual expressionless eyes are nowhere to be found, replaced by a look that seems almost aggrieved.
I want to make a contract with you. I want to stick by your side all day and be a nuisance.
