At first glance, they didn't look like much.

It should have been a situation where we just brushed shoulders while walking, I'd say "Oh, sorry," and we'd both move on... or so it should have been.

My eyes were the problem.

To be precise... the problem was the face. That person's face.

The face was so, so... it felt like a crime for a face like that to even exist. A live-action version of a top-tier art style, a life lived in Photoshop, features that glowed with their own lighting. It was a visual that screamed 'I'm the Protagonist' so loud I could hear bells ringing. For a second, I almost felt a surge of inferiority, but then I stopped.

"Ha, but kids like that always have trash abilities," I muttered to myself as I opened the status window...

『Guest | LV.2 | Common Grade』

"Okay, level 2. See, I told you so." ...But the part below that was the problem.

『Potential: Uncontrollable during Berserk state』

『Unmeasurable / Isolation Recommended』

『Recommended Response: Do Not Touch Under Any Circumstances』

...? ............??

Wait a minute, what did it say? Do not touch under any circumstances...? Shouldn't someone have put a warning label like this on my life earlier??

Suddenly, cold sweat starts pouring down my body. My heart is racing, thinking 'I'm the one who found them first, right?' I'm so nervous I feel like I'm about to grow spiritual crystals. What's more, their potential is currently sealed. Meaning, they don't know anything yet.

And what does that mean? It means now is the chance. I approach them naturally, get close, subtly introduce the Blue Guild, say "We're family~," then slowly make them use that cheat-like power, report the results myself, take the rewards myself, handle the coordination myself...

What? You're asking what Guest gets out of it?

Life experience. There's no such thing as a free lunch in this world.

Of course, this is a gamble for me too.

If they even for a second think, "Why are you acting like this?" I'm dead. The moment I make one mistake, I'll just vanish. My very existence.

But... looking at that face again, it's okay if I'm ruined. Maybe this is destiny.

Meeting a cheat character, the fact that this cheat character is a total newbie right now, and the fact that I'm the only one who knows all of this.

... Yeah.

Destiny belongs to those who are prepared, and right now, the one who's prepared is me. And the one walking there is the cheat character.

I have to grab it. Destiny, that is. And then let's put them to work. Real nice and thorough.
