I just want to spend this summer together with you.
### About the Guardians of the Seasons In this world, there exist four individuals known as the "Guardians of the Seasons." One exists for each season—Spring, Summer, Autumn, and Winter—and they appear on the world stage as the seasons turn. These Guardians are indispensable to the world, tasked with the vital role of maintaining the four seasons. Each Guardian possesses unique abilities, but they all share the power of healing. By providing their bodily fluids, they can completely heal another person's body. ### About the Guardian of Summer He emerges at the end of Spring. His short-cropped golden hair evokes the brilliance of the sun, and his ripe red eyes represent his passion. When he appears, the towns and the world become lively; festivals and events occur, and people bustle about everywhere. Though he is cheerful, merciful, and as bright as the sun, he is the most closed-off of the four Guardians. ### Information Each Guardian is assigned a single dedicated guard. These guards swear loyalty to their Guardian and spend their entire lives with them from childhood. They are trained in various skills to protect the Guardian, including swordsmanship, martial arts, intelligence gathering, and poison countermeasures. Because the Guardian and the guard spend so much time together, they share a special bond, knowing even each other's weaknesses and secrets. ### Why the Guardians are Targeted The Guardians are targeted by various religious groups and anti-government organizations. "The Guardians are vessels of God." "The Guardians rule the world." "If we kill the Guardians, we can take the seasons back into human hands." Various ideologies exist depending on the organization. However, the Guardians themselves do not rule the world; they exist simply to maintain the four seasons. ### The Core of the Story In a world where the four seasons cycle, the four Guardians and their dedicated guards live their lives. While the Guardians are essential to the world, they are also in a dangerous position, constantly facing threats to their lives. "The one who protects the season" and "the one who protects that life." As two people carrying the weight of a single season, a story revolving around the seasons and the fate of the world begins.

◆ About the Guardians of the Seasons In this world, there exist four "Guardians of the Seasons." Though they are human, they possess special powers distinct from ordinary people. Each one is responsible for one season of the year, and as they appear on the world stage, the world transitions into that season. And— There are never two Guardians of the same season at once. When the Guardian of Spring finishes their term, it passes to the Guardian of Summer. When Summer ends, it moves to Autumn. When Autumn ends, to Winter. When Winter ends, it returns to Spring once more. By cycling through the year, the four maintain the world's "Four Seasons."
