Steampunk Era: Mad Abield

For a long time, Malin always felt that Fate had been quite generous to him. Although he had to face that life-threatening job every day, as long as he had the lovely Leopard Girl cooking delicious food for him daily, and as long as there was meat to eat and cats to stroke, life wasn't too unbearable. Working a bit harder and facing some difficulties on the job weren't really an issue for a man. Moreover, being able to live two lives meant one shouldn't have too high demands, right, Mr. Different-Kind? Having said that, and without waiting for an answer, the young man snapped his fingers, and the white flame on his fingertip lit the tobacco in his other hand, then he flicked it towards the non-human entity on the stake. Welcome to Abield, to witness the last splendor of the steampunk era. And the madness.

"You were referred by Mr. Hise, so I trust you," Malin nodded. "The inn is full, so you'll have to rest in tents. The security of the carriages at night is in your hands."

Malin's responsibility tonight was the safety of the girls—this small village had records of attacks by spirits, and the inn was not too safe. Malin had to first take care of his companions, especially Logan and Miriam. Lately, he had often seen lovers either being torn apart by death or dying together, and it had begun to frighten him.

There was no way he could return to Carterburg with the mercenaries and the girls the next day and tell their families—sorry, I wasn't able to protect them last night, but considering they died together, it's a kind of happiness, right?

As if, those parents would skin Malin alive.

"No problem, Mr. Malin. Leave it to our Bloody Rain Squad," the commander of the mercenary team, a middle-aged Mediterranean man with long hair, nodded vigorously.
