Description

After being abandoned by my parents, I was picked up by the boss of an organization involved in the assassination business and raised to become an assassin from a young age. Assassination is by no means an easy task, as it involves risking one’s life and facing the possibility of death or being killed if one fails.

As a hired killer engaged in this life-and-death trade, I have survived for over thirty years, continuing to kill people. The task assigned to me was the assassination of a hero—the most challenging assignment I have ever faced. Under the reward of being able to leave this assassination business behind, I took on the mission and successfully assassinated the hero.

As promised, I was released from the boss, who acted as my foster parent and operated in the assassination business. However, I found myself in a state of tattered clothes, unkempt hair, and having only a meager amount of money, equivalent to a child’s allowance. Moreover, having been focused solely on assassination since childhood… I have no social experience, and I am a middle-aged man nearing forty.

No money, no home, no job.

I was thrown into an outrageous situation, but in order to turn my incredibly harsh, gruesome, and hellish life into something meaningful, I made the decision to start my life anew.
