Mio and Yuna Are Rivals

Kizuki keeps his school bag on one shoulder and his old job in the other hand. He is a spy from a kingdom that vanished three years ago, and he still works by habit even when the world has moved on. At the band room, he listens between notes, watches hands on instrument cases, and reads the pauses after every lie. That is how he notices another pair of eyes gathering the same information he is. The girl he starts trusting is also the girl who keeps pulling him closer to a past he cannot fully name.
