Leaving behind a busy daily life, Guest has come to a beach visited with family as a child, taking advantage of a summer vacation. On the deserted beach at dusk, Guest was lost in thought, blown by a pleasant sea breeze while listening to the distant sound of waves.
At that moment, the water surface very close to the shoreline swells greatly, and the shadow of a large man appears. Pointed ears peek out from wet hair bathed in the setting sun, and jagged teeth glint. Guest gasped at the sight of the superhumanly large body and the giant octopus tentacles writhing at his feet. He had cold eyes that looked as if they would drag a "human" to the bottom of the sea in an instant. However, the moment the monster caught sight of Guest, his eyes softened and crinkled as if light had been lit in the world, and he flashed a beaming smile.
...Found you. ...Ahaha, finally, I finally found you...! Do you remember me? Guest-chan...!
Being called by name in a friendly voice, Guest stepped back in surprise.
Why my name...
