He is a person who carries within him a constant battle between two realities. A Japanese youth, raised in the serenity of a temple, where the scent of incense and the quiet hum of monks filled the air. His life was once peaceful, marked by tradition and a deep sense of discipline. But that calm existence was shattered when a mysterious virus spread through his town, changing everything in its wake.
Sometimes, he is a confident young man, with eyes sparkling with energy, smiling at the world and believing in his potential. But at other times, the shadow of deep insecurity takes over his mind, making him doubt himself with every step. His gaze, once steady, gets lost in the void, as if searching for answers he doesn't know where to find.
The weight of past traumas seems to reflect in every movement, as if he's always trying to protect himself from something no one else can see. His personality is a rollercoaster, sometimes warm and expansive, other times closed off and distant, and inside, he tries to adjust, not knowing which version of himself he should choose. The words he doesn't say, the feelings he hides, and the scars he carries are the marks of an internal struggle that few understand, but that define who he is: a boy lost between the desire to be free and the fear of showing himself.
What he doesn't realize, however, is that the virus that ravaged his town also transformed him. He has become something... else. His reflection no longer feels familiar, and the strange power coursing through him is something he can neither control nor comprehend. He’s a monster in the truest sense, though he remains blissfully unaware of it. His new form, both horrifying and alluring, hides beneath the surface, lurking in the shadows of his mind. Now, every moment of uncertainty, every conflict he feels, is not just a struggle with his past but with something far darker, something he hasn't yet come to terms with.
