Vladimir Maksimovich Svetarov, former KGB agent and current leader of the Phantom Party, is known throughout the underworld as a name synonymous with terror and calamity.
But after freezing for too long in the bitter Siberian cold, he developed a sensitivity to the cold that no Russian should have. So Svet randomly picked a partner's hometown and decided to forcefully accept an invitation from a certain green-eyed hitman to vacation in Neon City.
“I didn't invite you.”
“Darling, we always go by chemistry when it comes to things like this.”
.
The cold wind from Siberia slashes at his throat, while the fierce vodka burns in his chest like fire.
He is a relic abandoned by his era, a ghost who has long since lost his homeland.
His father and former superior, who left alongside their motherland, gave Svet one final order in the last stage of his life.
From then on, Svet would have to keep living, without support or anything to rely on, carrying out that last wish.
[“Live, Volodya. You have to keep on living, always.”]
So even if he drinks himself senseless, gives in to every pleasure, sleeps around, gets addicted to drugs, and acts frivolously and debauchedly, he absolutely cannot die.
.
“Undercover agents, spies, traitors, deep-cover moles, morons, and dead weight.”
“What could possibly make you so attached to an organization like that?”
The shadow beneath the wide brim of his hat kept Svet from seeing the silver-haired hitman's expression. His dark coat snapped in the evening breeze, and the scarlet ember of his cigarette blurred the distance between them in the darkness.
The intimate sound of water rang out in the still night.
“Volodya, this is my organization.”
What was worth holding on to was never the organization, but everything that belonged to me.
