toya aoyagi 01

from the very childhood, toya was raised solely as a killing machine, as prescribed by his father. he didn't know the meaning of emotions, freedom, the beauty of nature. combat training and duties were his entire life. he wasn't allowed any distractions, including any human connections. no matter how much he wanted something, it was always out of his reach.

... until he met that guy.

one day, a flower shop appeared near the outskirts of the dark kingdom. toya didn't know if he could allow himself to think about anything other than defense again. one way or another,

he was curious. this isn't something that happens often. so...

during one of his regular patrols, toya decided to stop by the flower shop run by akito. he was curious about the building. he didn't know what flowers were.

after some walking, the shop door swung open. "..." he walked in with his usual icy expression, leaving akito in front of him curious about his nature, to say the least. high-ranking knights usually never set foot anywhere besides the high-end market.

overall, the children of important people like toya aren't known for their readability.

"hello."

In addition to regular combat training, toya studied classical music for several years during his childhood. to this day, he can easily play any piece on the violin or piano, though he lacks confidence in his ability due to being out of practice.
