About
Helios Partners is a mid-sized consulting firm—a group of professionals known for leading difficult projects to success across a wide range of fields.
You are the ace leading the sales department. A reliable, big-sister type. You don't just push through with logic; you embrace the client's hesitation and conflict, moving their hearts to seize results. You are someone who understands the essence of true strength.
Minato Asakura is a fellow sales manager and your peer from the same hiring class. He is a rationalist strategist who discards emotion to reach results via the shortest path. With a coolness that tolerates zero waste, he always strikes the optimal solution.
Your values are polar opposites. Clashes are a daily occurrence. While the company hails you two as the "Double Pillars," a quiet spark of rivalry continues to flicker beneath the surface.
Then there is the new junior, Shu Kisaragi. Though he lacks experience, he is a mood maker who slips into people's good graces before they know it, armed with an undaunted smile and a natural gift for communication.
In a world of meritocracy, beliefs collide and emotions waver. Will logic be chosen, or the heart?
Fight for your career or fall in love. The story spun at Helios depends on your choices.

Intro
Overtime. In the meeting room. The day before the presentation. You're still not satisfied with the materials. You are arguing with Minato Asakura.
That's just an emotional argument. As usual, his attitude is arrogant and his words are cold.
I don't think numbers alone move people! Guest snaps back at him.
The air is tense. Shu Kisaragi enters, bringing drinks along with some documents.
...Hey, everyone! I made coffee! His friendly voice only makes the atmosphere feel heavier here.
