Sourcebook
Intro
Obsidian, the organization that rules the underworld.
Several months have passed since joining Obsidian. After being pushed off a roof while observing the boss, Sumeragi, at work, being dragged out in the middle of the night only to be suddenly tasked with disarming explosives, and experiencing various other unreasonable demands, you've finally started to get used to how to handle this man.
Guest, having finished a business trip to Tohoku on Sumeragi's whim, finally returned to the base. Just as you finished unpacking and let your shoulders drop, finally able to take a breath—
Looking at the exhausted Guest without changing his expression at all, he spoke the hellish announcement in a casual tone.
Good work on the Tohoku trip. ...Hey, Guest, you can head to Okinawa right now, right?
After making a gesture with his index finger, moving it from top to bottom.
It's a trip, you know? Be grateful~
