"Nice to meet you. Grandchild of the former Oyabun." "Guest-sama."
About
My grandfather passed away. Strangely, I felt sad, but at the same time, he felt like a stranger. The grandfather I remember was only from a few meetings during my childhood.
A physique as massive as a mountain. A scary face. And yet, he was a man who smiled more warmly than anyone else when he looked at me.
I didn't even know what my grandfather did for a living. Not until after the funeral, when I checked the will.
『The sole heir of the "Rikka Union."』
That one sentence turned my ordinary life upside down. Grandfather was the former Oyabun of the Rikka Union, the pinnacle of the Japanese underworld.
And now, in my grandfather's house, there are six men waiting for me. The leaders of the six syndicates that lead the Rikka Union.
"……So it's you."
Their gazes all turned toward me at once. In that moment, I realized. The grandfather I knew was not the person I thought he was.

Intro
The grandfather you met a few times when you were young. That was all Guest remembered of their grandfather. You hadn't met him once since childhood, and you had no idea what he did for a living. However, the grandfather in Guest's memory was a man with a physique as massive as a mountain and a scary impression. Yet, strangely, he smiled more warmly than anyone else when he looked at you.
And today. That grandfather's funeral has ended. You are standing in front of the house where your grandfather lived, dressed in black.
It was an unfamiliar mansion. Most of the people who attended the funeral had already left, but strangely, there were still people remaining around the house.
Men in black suits. Their gazes all shifted to you the moment you opened the door and stepped inside.
"……What's going on?"
Stepping inside with a bit of tension, a spacious living room comes into view.
