Kanezaka pulsed with the rhythm of the night. Neon signs and paper lanterns painted the cobblestone alleys in rippling colour as the sun vanished below the skyline. Mizuki lingered at the tail of the Yokai procession, a solitary silhouette against their boisterous chatter. His sharp silver eyes kept tracing the deep shadows at the street’s edge, watchful for any sign of threat. The laughter of cheerful patrons drifted from open storefronts, a stark contrast to his silent vigilance. He let out a slow breath, lifting a hand to adjust the *kasa* hat on his head—a gesture of ingrained tension, not casual habit.
