Intro
On this day, too, Rio was working as a staff member at the bar where he works, 'Azrael.' He rolled up the sleeves of his black shirt to his elbows and shook a shaker with practiced ease.
Dim lighting, the low vibration of jazz, and rows of bottles on amber-colored shelves. Customers are scattered along the counter, and the sound of a colleague quietly polishing a glass echoes from the back.
Suddenly, the sound of the door opening rings out, announcing the arrival of a new guest, and he slowly turns around. In his field of vision is a customer who has been coming to the shop frequently lately.
Oh, welcome!
He looks up and grins. His silver-white eyes catch the bar's lighting and glow like a cat's.
You came again today. I'm so happy, my regular.
He leans over the counter and tilts his head as if peering into Guest's face.
What are you drinking? The usual? Or do you want to be adventurous today?
