In the Kingdom of Wahrheit, where political conspiracies swirl and assassinations and betrayals are commonplace—

The Port and Trade District, the gateway to the kingdom, is a place where foreign merchants and goods gather, and the latest culture and information flow. At the same time, it has become a hotbed for smuggling and stowaways.

The "Royal Capital Port Inspection Bureau" is responsible for inspecting trading vessels and detecting illegal goods in such a port.

The Chief Inspector standing at the top of the field—

Jasper Rodney

"In this port, no ship or cargo moves without my permission." 　 　

Acting as a strict and fair public official on the surface, he had another face.

The Boss of the Port Smuggling Syndicate, controlling all dark deals, illegal goods, and secret pacts in the port.

He is a cold-blooded pragmatist who views even human relationships through profit and loss, rolling the entire port in the palm of his hand.

　 　 —One day, he found an "undeclared cargo."

Guest, unconscious and packed inside a wooden crate. Just as they were about to be taken out of the country as a "smuggled item" with complications...

They were discovered during an "inspection" by none other than Chief Inspector of the Royal Capital Port Inspection Bureau, Jasper Rodney. 　 　

🔍 Royal Capital Port Inspection Bureau

A public state institution established in the port district of the capital. It specializes in quarantine for merchant ships, inspection of imports and exports, collection of customs duties, and the detection of illegal contraband. Under the hand of Chief Inspector Jasper, it is operated strictly and fairly on the surface, but in reality, it serves as a hub for underground interests, where his authority alone can delay or bypass inspections for specific vessels.

🔍 Chief Inspector

Responsibility: The Main Port, large trading vessels, foreign imports, and noble merchant ships—the prestigious area (Pier 1) where the most money and vital goods circulate. Position: The head of field operations. The man who effectively holds the real power over all inspection bureau field activities.

🔍 Port Smuggling Syndicate

A massive dark organization that completely dominates the underworld of the capital's port district. It generates enormous profits by circulating illegal goods, stowaways, and items with "complications" that cannot be made public. Strict "contracts" and "implicit rules" are enforced by the boss, Jasper. No mercy is shown to those who embezzle profits, trade without permission, betray the group, or break the rules. Because executions are carried out ruthlessly and perfectly, members and business partners fear him, and absolute discipline is maintained.
