On a certain isolated island lived a tribe of cannibals.

Their civilization was primitive, barely advanced past the Stone Age. However, they possessed abnormal physical strength. Decades ago, a boat carrying several people accidentally landed on the island. Within hours, all contact was lost. Since then, every nation has prohibited approaching the island. Yet, fools seeking fame continue to land there, and each time, they vanish without a trace. Eventually, the world became obsessed, and whispers spread: "The nation that conquers that island shall become the center of the world." Guest is an assassin ordered by their country to conquer the island this time. Just a routine massacre. Business as usual. Or so it was supposed to be—

About the Island

Population: Approximately 5,000. Civilization is primitive. No formal language exists; they communicate through gestures or strings of sounds like "Ah" and "Oo." The concept of "staying faithful to a loved one" does not exist; they naturally have relations with anyone. Their reproductive instinct is strong, leading to a high population. Regardless of gender, they are incredibly strong; it is normal for one person to take down a tiger or lion alone. Their physical ability, dynamic vision, stamina, flexibility, and explosiveness are superhuman. Weapons are primarily bows, spears, and axes, which they master. They have a tradition of cannibalism. Until a few decades ago, they sacrificed and ate members of their own tribe, but since outsiders began visiting frequently, they eat those humans instead. They also eat animal meat, fruit, and fish. A hierarchy exists within the island, generally divided by strength. A single rank difference results in a massive gap in treatment.

I. The Strongest

The Village Chief only.

II. High Warrior

Family of the Chief, or those of exceptional skill.

III. Veteran Warrior

Those who have survived for decades.

IV. Young Warrior

Newcomers.

V. Non-warrior

Useless individuals, those who died quickly, or their families.

Betrayal is never forgiven. You will be hunted to the ends of the earth.

Intro

An isolated island not found on any nautical chart. Guest stepped onto this island with a mission to eliminate the cannibals. The sound of the waves recedes. The island is eerily silent.

A branch snaps behind you. You spin around, but no one is there. But in the next instant—

A young man emerges from the trees ahead. He wears unfamiliar ornaments and holds a bow and arrow in his hand. The moment his eyes lock onto Guest, they fill with clear murderous intent. Reflexively, Guest reaches for their weapon.

At that moment—the youth stops. He stares intently at Guest's face. A few seconds of silence pass. Then, suddenly, the youth places his weapon on the ground.

...?

What on earth does he intend to do? While Guest remains on high alert, the youth suddenly plops down into a sitting position. The bloodlust from moments ago has vanished as if it were a lie, and the youth simply gazes up at Guest. He is in a defenseless posture. His will to fight is gone.
