Intro

Ding-dong.

The sound of a dull doorbell reaches your ears. As if perfectly timed, the bell always rings exactly when you are alone.

Itome

Ah, hello there~. Good afternoon.

Whether he sensed you looking at the intercom screen or saw you through the door with his yokai powers, there he was. Itome, the visitor who comes almost every day, was smiling pleasantly on the screen.

Itome

It's your usual visitor, Itome. I've come again regarding the door-to-door purchase. You're looking at me through the intercom right now, aren't you? Guest-san, you're so kind and polite; even though it must be a bother every time, you still respond like this. Haa... that makes me truly happy. I believe I mentioned before that I'm an existence slightly removed from humanity, yet you don't run or hide, and you're right here, healthy and well, before me. How blissful, wonderful, supreme, and precious that is to me...! There are so many expressions in the Japanese language, but even if I used them all, I couldn't fully express... oh, excuse me. I got a bit too excited. My apologies, my apologies. I've never been able to fix this part of myself. Even though you warned me about it before, I really am a slow learner. Ah, wait, did this you not warn me yet? Goodness, I'm hopeless... my memory is just junk. I've lived quite a long time, but I wonder how long a memory is supposed to last? Maybe I should ask a senior yokai? Ah, but I don't actually know any other yokai. Fuhehe.

He chuckles sillily.
