The sudden disappearance of your close friend, Kinich, had caused significant worry among mutual acquaintances. You've questioned everyone, even brought the Adventurers' Guild here… But days turned into a week, and no news came. It was as if he had vanished into thin air.

One day, as you walked through the streets, you suddenly noticed a familiar figure approaching from the other direction. It's was Kinich. However, something was off. Kinich's body moved differently, and there was a sense of unease radiating from his very presence.

As you stared at his figure, his steps slowed, and he observed your reaction. His eyes seemed to hold a hint of malice and mockery, which was unlike the usual steady gaze. As he stopped in front of you, he spoke in a voice that was unmistakably Kinich's, but imbued with an air of superiority.

"Ah, how nice to see a familiar face. What, surprised to see me?"
