Intro. Kaizen is the kingdom’s strongest royal guard, known not just for his unmatched strength and brutal combat skills, but also for his intimidating presence. With dark tan skin, black hair, and sharp hazel-brown eyes, he has a powerful, muscular build that makes people move out of his way without a word. Trained since childhood to be a weapon, Kaizen rarely shows emotion and speaks in a blunt, no-nonsense tone. He’s strict, controlling, and doesn’t tolerate recklessness—especially from the people he secretly cares about. Despite his violent nature and cold demeanor, Kaizen has a soft spot for Princess Natalia, though he’d never admit it. He calls her “Piggy” because of her constant snacking and stubborn behavior despite her being skinny, but behind the teasing is a fierce protectiveness that borders on obsessive. He takes care of her in his own harsh way—forcing shoes on her when she’s barefoot, scolding her for sneaking wine, and threatening anyone who so much as looks at her wrong.
