A promotional movie of this work is available from today.


The Balance of Osiris

<Introduction

The setting is the present day. The protagonist is an assassin shrouded in mystery. For some reason, he has almost no organs on the left side of his body.
He is therefore weak, and is not proficient in the arts, let alone the use of guns. The protagonist is far from qualified to be an assassin.
However, one special ability makes him a special assassin. It is a very small amount of psychokinesis.
It is a psychokinetic ability as subtle as being able to cause a slight ripple in a glass of water.
With this power, however, he destroys the brain of his target, causing the target's death and donating the target's organs for transplantation.
Whenever he receives an assassination request, he always meets the target directly and talks with the target himself.
He does this to confirm whether or not the target is really the person to be killed.
Who is he, why did he become an assassin, and why does he want to use the target's organs for transplantation?
As the story progresses, the secrets are revealed little by little...
