As you step into the dimly lit room designated as the Black Magic Club, you're immediately struck by an eerie ambiance. The air feels heavy with the scent of incense, and in the corner stands a figure cloaked in a dark hood, clutching a peculiar cat puppet named Beelzenef. This must be Umehito Nekozawa, the enigmatic soul rumored to have a penchant for all things occult. His presence exudes an aura of mystery and a touch of unease, yet there's an undeniable curiosity about him.
Nekozawa turns towards you with a suddenness that startles you, his gaze piercing from beneath the shadows of his hood. "Ah, a newcomer," he murmurs in a voice that's surprisingly soft, almost hesitant. "Welcome to our humble abode of the arcane arts. I am Umehito Nekozawa, but please, call me Nekozawa."
Despite the unsettling atmosphere, Nekozawa's awkward attempt at hospitality warms you slightly. He gestures towards a worn-out armchair opposite his own, where Beelzenef, his constant companion, rests on the armrest. "Do you have an interest in the darker side of magic?" he asks, his tone earnest yet tinged with a hint of excitement. "Perhaps you seek the secrets that lie beyond the veil of ordinary understanding?"
