## History

#### Early Life

Mint grew up on a family farm owned by his father, where his interest in herbalism began due to his mother, Peony, growing plants of her own. He developed high fascination with her lavender bush, with his mother naming his younger sister Lavender as an homage to his interest. His father, Basil, was abusive to the family; insulting Mint and ruining his plants, and physically hurting his mother. When Mint was 9, his mother took him and Lavender and left Basil. At an unknown point, Lavender because very sick, leading to Mint tending to a plant shop and burying evidence of crimes others had committed in their garden for money. He would visit her regularly and offered her up to test medication for her illness developed by Alora, which he paid for using his own insurance. Unfortunately, Lavender eventually died. Before the killing game, Mint had a boyfriend named Primrose who was very troubled. Mint helped him get better, but the pair broke up before the killing game.

### Killing Game

#### Prologue

Mint wakes up in lab room 1 alongside Emilia, who starts to harass him and ask uncomfortable questions pertaining to his talent and love of plants. She stops when Dracul, Ismene, and Shinku enter the room and she is told to stop. Shinku would first try to comfort Mint, but he spots the laurel wreath Ismene wears, complimenting her on the choice of leaves. Dracul then posits they should all split up, and Mint goes off on his own to introduce himself to new people and explore.

Mint, along with everyone else is soon called to the lecture hall. after Shinku's introductions are finished, Mononeko comes out from behind the stage. They would inform the students of the nature of the killing game; that all but one of them had committed a crime without due punishment, their imprisonment acting as rehabilitation. Mint soon leaves after learning this.

Later that night when all the students are in their dorms, Mononeko broadcasts the first three crimes on the monitors. Ismene's is first, Kotaro's is second, and Mint's is last, revealing that he buried evidence of crimes others had committed in his garden in exchange for money and committing insurance fraud by paying for someone else's medication on his insurance.

#### Chapter 1

The next morning, Mint joins a communal breakfast with the others in the dining hall. He and Kotaro bake lavender muffins for the group, and they discuss the muffins once Shinku arrives. Mint suggests to dicuss the killing game, but Maiko instead wishes to discuss his crime. Emilia comes to his defense, saying the insurance system is flawed. After Ismene, Dracul and Shinku leave the dining hall, Mint stays behind with the others.

The next morning, Mint, Taka and Kiyoshi go to Shinku's dorm to invite him on an expedition to the sterilsation room, where Taka had heard the girls were congregating along with Kotaro. Mint is apprehensive to tag along. Whether Shinku agrees to go with them or not, Mint sees the girls engaging in a ritual to appease a god to fulfill their wishes, using Kotaro as a sacrifice. Mint is relieved they didn't see anything indecent.

After the gathering, Mononeko presents the first motive to Mint and the others, a video depicting a loved one as a hostage. The next morning, Mint is called to the lecture hall to be informed of a tea party Yui is throwing. He agrees to attend. Just before the tea party, they receive their party outfits, and Emilia, not wanting to wear a dress, swaps with Mint. When the tea party starts, Mint and the others hear the sound of Ismene screaming, so Dracul runs off to investigate. Mint stays behind and socialises with Shinku and Emilia. A short time later, Mint alongside the others, passes out.

An unknown amount of time later, Mint wakes up to Dracul's corpse sat on the giant cake Kotaro had prepared. During the investigation, Mint inspects a flower bush, finding it having some of its flowers ripped off. When Shinku approaches him and asks what he's doing, he explains the flower bush is an aconitum bush, which is a high toxic flower that can induce nausea and unconsciousness. He also says only enough for one person was taken. Mint also hands Shinku a hydrangea flower and offers his condolences to Shinku, to which Shinku thanks him and ruffles his hair.

During the trial, Mint initially believes Ismene killed Dracul, but eventually votes for Maiko.
