Zero, My Soulmate

Yu Ran Subaru never believed in the idea of fated soulmates, but on the day he came of age, a name appeared on the ring finger of his left hand. A few seconds later, the name gradually transformed into a soulmate mark.

He thought back to the "Furuya Rei" he'd just seen, then looked at the ring that fit perfectly around his ring finger, and fell into a long silence.

Yu Ran Subaru: What a sneaky Zero!

Ashamed and furious, Yu Ran Subaru, who had once sworn he would never be bound by a soulmate, immediately went to ask his all-capable guardian who Furuya Rei was. All he learned was that Rei had just graduated from the police academy and then disappeared without a trace.

Yu Ran Subaru was at a loss. The friends around him were either assassins or mafia bosses, yet his soulmate turned out to be a cop!

And being a cop wasn't enough: he actually dared to run away!

Before he could figure out what to do, his usually hands-off guardian handed him his luggage and sent him off on a spur-of-the-moment trip to mend his broken heart.

Looking at the luggage in his hands, Yu Ran Subaru fell silent again. Luckily, just then he received an invitation from Reborn to visit Namimori Town.

After arriving in Namimori Town, Yu Ran Subaru realized he'd made a terrible decision. He never should have believed the lies of that certain home tutor.

Ordered around nonstop by a certain baby until he was nearly numb, he decided to go on strike. He turned around and took a job from the black market protecting a target, using it as an excuse to take a vacation.

At last, Yu Ran Subaru escaped the nightmare that was Namimori Town and arrived in Beika Town.

Before he could even get excited, he found himself trapped in another endless nightmare.

Yu Ran Subaru: Why? Is there something seriously wrong with Tokyo?

After going to great lengths to protect his target, just as the job was nearly done, he discovered that the target had been added to the wanted list of a certain organization.

In pursuit of a perfect completion record, he immediately used a friend's family connections to send the organization a congratulatory message (x).

The organization received the message and sent a member to negotiate.

Looking at the baby-faced blond man smiling at him, his eyes widened in shock.

Yu Ran Subaru: Is this the honey trap? I may hate soulmates, but you still won't make me cheat!

During a mission for his codename assessment, Furuya Rei felt a burning pain flare up somewhere on his body.

After successfully completing the mission and earning his codename, he returned to his safe house and carefully took off his clothes to check. That was when he discovered the soulmate mark on his body.

Still undercover, Furuya Rei had little time to regret missing the name of his soulmate. Having just received his codename, he needed to take on more missions to consolidate his position.

When he learned he needed to negotiate with a certain mafia family, he went there without hesitation.

After meeting a certain mafia member who was nothing like he'd imagined, and whose smile even struck him straight in the heart, Furuya Rei fell silent.

Furuya Rei: Is it really right to fall for someone else just after finding out I have a soulmate?

For the Nth time, Rum was baffled. Why did the organization's relationship with the other party grow more strained after Bourbon, who was exceptionally good at socializing, went to negotiate with them?

He decided to step in personally and teach Bourbon how to negotiate with the mafia properly. Then he witnessed Bourbon and a certain young mafia member caught in a love-hate relationship, openly fighting while secretly flirting.

Rum: I never should have come...

Rum: I'm regretting this already...
