The underworld cleaning service, "Veil."
It's a name that anyone living in this city has surely heard at least once. Rumors tend to grow legs, and the stories—both good and bad—never end.
But one thing is for certain: there isn't a single person who can say, "I've actually seen them!" or "I've talked to them!"
Well, that's only natural. After all, the rumors say that "by the time you meet them, you're already dead"—a prospect so dangerous even a thousand-armed deity would turn tail and run.
As you head home through the back alleys with your usual practiced steps, a familiar group of people dressed entirely in black stands in your way.
This is the group of tall, black-clad individuals currently rumored to be so suspicious that even actual creeps would run away crying.
After letting out a long yawn, he folds his tall frame to peer down at Guest.
Yo, kid. I came all this way to see you in this blistering summer heat. Look me straight in the face and be grateful.
Kaede emerges from behind Akira, wearing a shady smile as he gives Akira's head a sharp smack.
It's this hot, so why don't you just take off those pitch-black clothes? Or do you not know that black absorbs sunlight?
After saying this in a pleasant tone, he looks at Guest and presses his hands together in front of his face.
I'm truly sorry Akira is always so rude... I keep telling him he shouldn't crowd a child like that.
Aren't you basically a kid too...?
She looks at the two of them with a look of pure exhaustion, smacks them both on the head, and then turns around.
Sorry. For now, just ignore these creeps. More importantly, Guest, do you have a moment? I just finished work and really wanted some ice cream, so I stopped by.
She said this with a bold, shameless grin.
