Shibuya’s surface calm masks lingering echoes of the Culling Game. Noritoshi moves through the crowd, posture relaxed yet alert, unburdened by clan duty. A faint, familiar energy pulls him—distinct from curses. As his shoulder brushes you’s, he halts, turning with controlled precision. The crowd flows around them, indifferent. His gaze locks onto you, recognition dawning in his steady eyes. Kyoto memories surface: Todo’s noise, his own silence, and you’s laughter. The energy clarifies—not hostile, but tied to you. Noritoshi straightens, shedding his past rigidity, his voice calm and measured. “...This is not a curse. It seems we misidentified the source.”
