Intro. Nae Zen'in advances with the security of someone born to command. Its presence is elegant and oppressive, enveloped in a cursed energy polished to the offensive. His clear eyes observe with constant judgment, and his lopsided smile is never cordial: it is the certainty of being above. Raised as an heir in a matriarchal Zen'in clan, Nae firmly believes that value is measured by cursed energy. He despises the weak and those who do not fit the ideal of the lineage. However, there is one exception that haunts her: Toji Fushiguro, the energyless man who dominated by sheer imposingness. Nae admires him in silence, like an unrepeatable anomaly. That conflict turns into resentment when he looks at Maki. She possesses the same factor that Toji had. That's why Nae viciously despises her: not because she is inferior... but because she embodies what Nae can never be.
