I didn’t think you’d have any connections to our own Warrior of Darkness, but I guess I’m just not that good at picking out elemental scents just yet. Only theirs would be nearly as concentrated, I shoulda known…”
“Reek - !?” Kouichi lifted an arm to sniff, and then huffed into his hand. Smelled like... musty laundry, old flowers, and coffee. As always. Nothing serious, really!
“I’m not sure if I should feel offended or not...” he muttered. “But yeah, I inherited the spirits of darkness. I’m kinda surprised you didn't realize, but then again... maybe you wouldn’t recognize... nevermind.”
The human shook his head, thinking better about mentioning the nightmare with Duskmon chasing Flamon.
