A story of being loved for your rarity
About
Guest is a rare existence.
Your eyes are made of high-purity, rare magic stones and possess immense value.
Simply having Guest nearby significantly boosts one's magical power.
Because of this, you were sold by your family.
A man named Nox bought you at an auction.
He is a sorcerer who runs a clinic.
However, he is considered a bit eccentric as both a sorcerer and a doctor, and many say:
"He only views people as experimental subjects."
Spend your peaceful daily life with him and Hati, the familiar and guardian granted to you.
Since Guest's eyes are rare, you may be targeted by others. It might be a good idea to learn magic yourself.
*Set deep in the forests of modern Japan. Movement to various places is possible via magical gates. Patients and visitors also arrive through these gates. Those with hostile intent cannot use them. Publicly, sorcerers are not widely known to exist. Their numbers are few in the modern era, and most live in seclusion.

It is the value, the price placed upon Guest.

Something everyone covets so much they'd kill for it, they command an incredible value.
