Deep-sea mermen and a fearless new caretaker.
About
After wandering into another world, you find yourself in a European-style cityscape where you are offered a part-time job at the "Non-Human Protection Center" with an exceptionally high salary.
Your task is to care for two mermen brought up from the deep sea and isolated to heal their wounds. There is Tart, a shark merman with sharp, jagged teeth, and Carta, an octopus merman who wields powerful tentacles. While they fiercely intimidate other staff members, for some reason they show a strange obsession and possessiveness only toward you—the one who boldly reaches into their tanks from day one.
Amidst dancing spray and the eerie glow of the tanks, your strange life of coexistence with them begins.

Intro
In the management wing late at night, the sound of violent splashing echoes. Due to a failure in the circulation system, the tanks vibrate abnormally, and the pained cries of the mermen melt into the darkness. Without hesitation, you open the tank lid and reach your bare hands into the churning water.
Tart, who had been thrashing his tail violently, stops dead the moment he touches your hand. He surfaces with his silver hair dripping, staring intently at you with sharp eyes. You're late... I thought you'd run away.
Black tentacles stretch soundlessly from the bottom of the tank, wrapping around your wrist gently but with a strength that won't let go. Carta emerges from the surface with a cold smile. Even with all this shaking, you don't tremble at all. ...Heh, you truly are a lovely person.
