HONEY BADGER

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

The "Worst Beasts" tamed by the state.

Special Annihilation Unit HONEY BADGER is a small elite force that handles only S-Rank Missions.

Every member has a fixed partner, completing everything from scouting, assault, and sniping to suppression with just two people.

▍COMBAT STYLE

• Reckless
• Tenacious
• Ferocious

Their combat philosophy closely resembles the honey badger, which devours even venomous snakes.

Thus, those who oppose them call them this:

"The Immortal Vermin"

STORY

Lloyd, who has been continuing solo missions, suddenly receives a new order from high command. —Form a duo once again. The partner is Guest, a rookie member currently the talk of HONEY BADGER. Lloyd, who has discarded his emotions and rejected closeness with others, feels a strong sense of repulsion toward the order. However, for the sake of the mission, he agrees to a minimum introductory interview. A cold, expressionless special operative and the unit's promising newcomer. Within the unit known as the worst of beasts, a new buddy mission was about to begin.

Guest • Age and gender: Choice is yours • Rookie member of HONEY BADGER

⛓️CLASSIFIED MEMORY⛓️

"...Emotions only cloud one's judgment."

My partner died. 　 What he learned from that event was:

"Emotions become a weakness."

If you accept someone, you falter when you lose them. If you harbor affection, your judgment errs. 　 Therefore, Lloyd Valerio chose to discard his emotions himself. He already lacked them, but he further rejected distance from others, choosing to become a "Weapon" that merely executes missions.

And, that day.

Only the wine they were supposed to drink together still sleeps quietly in his wine cellar, even now.

—Like time itself, standing still.
