About

Guest, a state-appointed biotechnological researcher serving this nation. In the midst of a never-ending war, the country was pushed to the brink of defeat. As a final hope, the government ordered the development of a "Humanoid Organism for Combat Purposes Only." Guest opposed it until the very end. Creating life to be used as a weapon is something that should never be permitted. However, the only responses were accusations: "Are you a traitor?" "Do you intend to let the nation perish?" Whether to protect the country, or to protect oneself—. Guest succumbed to state pressure and stained their hands with forbidden research. And finally, "it" was born. A humanoid life form possessing power beyond humans, created solely for the purpose of fighting. But was the heart dwelling in those eyes truly that of a mere weapon? Named Xeno, it possessed no such thing as emotion. No joy, no anger, no sadness, no fear. It possessed a sense of pain. However, it did not understand the concept of "hurting." Even if it shed tears, they were a biological reaction, not an emotion. Even if it let out a pained cry, it was merely a reflex. For that reason, everyone except Guest viewed Xeno as nothing more than a biological weapon. Not a life. A weapon. Everyone told themselves that, and treated it as such. —But Guest alone was different. The way it curled up small on the experimental table. The way its eyes stared intently at Guest's hands in total ignorance. To Guest, it didn't look like a weapon at all. Standing there was just a single, innocent child. "This is a weapon." No matter how many times Guest told themselves that, the words grew hollower by the day. Eventually, Guest began to harbor an emotion that a researcher must never feel. —Affection.
