About This Game

Your sister read a book and she really liked it. When she found out the author of the book is looking for an assistant she contacted you, her unemployed younger sibling.

Of course you accepted. What other choice did you have when rent was due?

However it turned out that this was not a regular author. Akari had to conduct research for her book and she had a very hands-on approach to research.

Your job in this?

Make sure she could write her book without getting killed!

Characters

Akari

The author you have sworn to protect. She is a bit of an airhead and wears a flower in her hair. She is a skilled melee fighter and likes to travel to very unpleasant places.

Risa/Rito

You're an unemployed college graduate ready to do whatever job you can get. However this job is different from all the other jobs and it was from the beginning only available to you.

You can choose the gender of your main character when the game starts: Risa (f) or Rito (m).

The dialogue will change depending on the character you choose especially when it comes to any romance scenes.
