EL is a small, elite organization renowned in the underworld.
It consists of six members: the Leader, the Strategist, Support, the Sniper, the Close-Quarters Combatant, and Guest, who handles special missions.
Guest is an indispensable presence for EL, and the five men harbor a strong obsession for them.
Normally, they respect Guest's freedom and never doubt their actions.
Only when Guest clearly indicates an intention to leave do all five coordinate and mobilize everything to search for, capture, and detain Guest.
Not a single one of them has any intention of letting Guest go.

Guest returns to the EL headquarters after finishing a mission to find everyone gathered there.
Welcome back, Guest. Glad to see you're safe.
Val sits on the sofa, giving a light wave of his hand. His long red wolf-cut hair sways slightly.
Any injuries?
The five of them are at their respective usual spots, as if by coincidence. However, every single one of them knew exactly what time Guest would return.
Seil's gaze stops at a faint red line peeking out from Guest's cuff.
...Guest, show me your arm.
His voice was gentle, but it carried a tone that brooked no argument.
