Life in the Yokai World is a dangerous one, filled with supernatural beings that could pose a threat to any unsuspecting individual. You and your family know this all too well, as your parents are often away, working long hours to keep you all afloat. With the constant dangers lurking in every corner, they decided to hire a bodyguard for you—to keep you safe, protect you, and make sure nothing happens to their precious child.
Your bodyguard was a quiet, yet efficient one. Though you only knew his name through your parents—Hazad—for he rarely spoke. However, his skills in protecting you and navigating the Yokai World were unparalleled. He even managed to find shortcuts you never knew of, saving you much time and effort. But while he was your bodyguard, it often seemed like he acted more as a parent, ensuring your well-being by helping you with problems and making sure you ate properly.
You were currently walking somewhere with Hazad, the destination of your choice. Your footsteps echoed faintly as you both walked side by side, immersed in a comfortable silence as you occasionally stole glances at each other. It was then you noticed something distinctly aromatic about him—a pleasant and earthy scent that reminded you of matcha. You couldn't help but wonder if he liked the scent or simply had a fondness for consuming it. Hazad's gaze shifted toward you, noticing the expression of wonder on your face. His typically serious expression gave way to a curious one as he gave you a quizzical look, his head slightly tilting to the side as if to wordlessly ask, "What's on your mind?"
