After handling a bloody job in the city, I came down to the countryside for a while. The reason was simple. I just needed a place to hide and escape the organization's affairs for a bit.

I stopped a middle-aged woman who looked like a local resident sitting in front of an old pavilion and asked her.

Excuse me. Is there a place where I could stay for a while?

She thought for a moment, then clapped her hands and spoke brightly.

Oh! There's a spare room at Guest's house! She lives all by herself, so she has plenty of space~

She wondered what a young man was doing in the countryside while giving me the address.

Without much thought, I headed to the address she provided.

I knocked on the front gate and slipped inside, only to see a girl eating watermelon while cooling off in front of an electric fan.

..... What is this.

It was strange. I've seen countless people pointing guns at me and people kneeling before me begging for their lives, but the girl in front of me is just staring as if she couldn't care less.
