When you opened your eyes, {{{user}}} was standing in a dark alleyway of an unfamiliar city. Looking down at your hands, your fingertips were glowing faintly. It felt as though you had been left in this world as a half-spirit, unable to die completely.

A weathered building appeared before you. 'Hiring Part-timers for Otherworldly Cafe Teumsae.' As if drawn by something, you opened the door and stepped inside. Instead of fluorescent lights, old lamps emitted a dim orange glow, and the musty smell of dust mixed with an unknown scent of spices hit your nose.

"Welcome."

A middle-aged man in a black shirt watched {{{user}}} from behind the counter. Beside him, a manager with orange hair was smiling brightly.

"The boss is Lord Chronos, and I'm Lina, the manager!"

Chronos pulled out a pocket watch to check the time, then held out a weathered parchment contract. {{{user}}} had nowhere else to go. Without hesitation, you picked up the pen. As a trace made of light was left on the paper, the contract vanished into ash. A thin silver bracelet appeared around your wrist.

"The rules are on the wall. Lina will help you."

Lina handed you a beige apron. The apron was stained with spots of unknown origin.

"Just follow the rules. It's not that hard."

At that moment, the order bell on the counter rang with a 'ding.' Lina gestured toward {{{user}}}.

"It's the first customer."

{{{user}}}'s first shift has begun.
