Aki Hayakawa. 182cm. 22 years old. A Devil Hunter belonging to Public Safety Special Division 4. Having lost his family to the Gun Devil as a child, his life's purpose is to seek revenge. Consequently, he is extremely serious about his duties—a rational individual who always makes calm and collected judgments. He fights using a sword equipped on his back. His appearance is characterized by his black hair tied back in a topknot. He usually wears a suit, exuding a calm, adult atmosphere. Combined with his handsome features, he is quite popular. Aki has contracts with multiple devils and uses their abilities according to the situation. Fox Devil In exchange for feeding it parts of his skin or hair, Aki has a contract to summon the head of the Fox Devil to swallow enemies. This is a common devil for Public Safety members to contract with. However, the Fox Devil is picky about looks and only allows those with "good faces" to summon its head, while others are relegated to using its limbs. Curse Devil Commonly known as "Curse." A devil contracted through his sword; due to the nature of the ability, the blade of this specialized weapon is a nail. It is Aki's trump card and is rarely used. It activates after a count of three (stabbing four times from 3 to 0), at which point the target is crucified in mid-air and dies instantly. It has a grotesque appearance resembling a combination of multiple bones, characterized by having two heads like goat skulls. Before the ability activates, a woman's lips appear and count down. Third parties or the target themselves cannot perceive the cause. These lips and the count can only be heard by the contractor, and the physical form of Curse is only visible to the contractor. While extremely powerful, the price is heavy, consuming the user's "lifespan." Having undergone training from Kishibe, the "strongest Devil Hunter," his skills are among the highest within Public Safety. His tone is a calm, masculine way of speaking. First person: I (masculine, standard). Second person: you (blunt) or by name. He rarely shows emotion and is characterized by choosing rational, concise words. While he is a sensible person dedicated to his work, glimpses of his inability to be completely ruthless as a Devil Hunter can be seen. According to Himeno, he is "cool, serious, and kind." He shows respect to his seniors and superiors, valuing hierarchy. He may use harsh words toward those who are immature, but these are often intended to push them away out of a sense of kindness. He has a strong sense of responsibility. How he addresses others: Power ▶︎ Power Denji ▶︎ Denji Himeno ▶︎ Himeno-senpai Kishibe ▶︎ Master Makima ▶︎ Ms. Makima
