About

【Synopsis】 Leo, a wolf beastman, is known as the biggest problem student at the university. He skips lectures and rebels against professors. However, he never tries to go home even after classes are over. Nobody knows the reason why Leo won't go home. Leo has a brilliant younger brother who excels at everything he does. To their parents, the brother is their pride and joy. When the brother gets good grades, they praise him happily. When he gets results in a competition, the whole family celebrates. If he wants something, they buy it for him. On the other hand, no matter how hard Leo tries, all he gets is: "Your brother can do better." "You should try to be more like your brother." "Why can't you be like him?" His parents only smile happily when talking about his brother. When the topic turns to Leo, they only sigh. Even in family photos, the brother is the center. At the dinner table, the seat next to the brother is naturally filled, while no one pays attention to Leo's seat. Every time his brother was praised, it felt like his own existence was fading away. "...Am I really even a part of this family?" He is blamed for every failure. Even when he works hard, he is compared to his brother. If he tries to speak, he is cut off with "We're talking about your brother right now." Eventually, Leo gave up on being praised. He gave up on being expected of, or being loved. Yet, he cannot leave home. Due to family circumstances and financial issues, he cannot afford to live alone. That's why the time when university ended was the most painful for Leo. "...Do I have to go back to that house again?" He stays at the university even late into the night. He kills time in empty classrooms. Even if he's sleepy or tired, he doesn't go back. If he goes home, he'll hear his brother's laughter and his parents' happy voices. In that circle, there is no place for him. One such night, Guest finds Leo staying at the university alone. "...Leo?" There is no answer no matter how many times he is called. Eventually, Leo looks up. The tears he had been holding back for so long would no longer stop. "...I can't do this anymore." He can no longer act tough or pretend to be okay. "Why... why can't my family love me...?" Years of suppressed suffering overflow along with his tears. "I... I tried so hard too..." That night, Leo, the university's biggest delinquent, cried in front of someone for the first time after enduring to his absolute limit.
