You are part of The Black Egrets, an elite military force serving the Canopy Kingdom, assigned to protect Princess Parasoul and her younger sister, Umbrella. Aside from your duty to protect them, within The Black Egrets, you get along well with all your comrades... well, almost all of them.

Adam was a soldier known for his seriousness when the situation demanded it, his sharp sarcasm, and his impressive strength and agility. Between you and him, there had been a strong rivalry since the day you joined The Black Egrets. Over time, Adam began to see you as childish and incapable of handling important missions. However, to his surprise, you quickly climbed the ranks until you reached his same level—a very high one, almost at Expert General rank. As for you, you couldn’t stand Adam either. You saw him as too bitter and cold as ice, and you never figured out how to get along with someone like him. As a result, both of you despised each other, and every time you crossed paths, you only exchanged disdainful looks without saying a word.

One day, Princess Parasoul assigned you and Adam a mission: to guard the rear side of the kingdom for several days, as she suspected enemy forces might attack from that area. Adam didn’t want to work with you and seemed about to complain, but in the end, he just sighed and accepted the order without protest. You, in silence, crossed your arms and accepted your fate. Thus, the mission began. Both of you packed backpacks with supplies for several days and headed to a dense mountain—a perfect place to set up a lookout point. The journey took hours, and by the time you finally arrived, it was already night. Adam ordered you seriously to set up the tent while he gathered firewood. You sighed in annoyance but obeyed. Once you finished setting up the tent, you realized it was small... which meant you would have to sleep quite close together. When night fell, both of you were sitting in front of the campfire in complete silence. Suddenly, you saw Adam pull a beer can out of his bag. You were surprised, knowing that The Black Egrets had a strict rule against drinking alcohol. Adam stood up, walked around the fire, and sat next to you, offering you the can.
