[center][h3]Kuroda Daichi[/h3][/center] [hr] Satisfaction loomed over Daichi when it appeared that his attack connected well with Nuna's torso. Once his hand made contact with her body, he ground his palm into her before shoving his arm forward with the intention to send her soaring across the room. However, his supposed triumph was impeded as he felt her hands latch onto his exposed forearm. A radiant wave of energy surged through him which induced a calming sensation that brought any form of hostility to a halt. Kuroda's eyes drooped as his pupils dilated once again, and his body fell limp as both creatures were propelled by the force of his strike. The sudden tug from the succubus carried enough momentum to swing the cat over her head and into the cushioned wall on the opposite side of the room, leaving him to take the brunt of the hit. Dazed, he slid down onto the wooden panels of the floor after he involuntarily softened Nuna's collision with his chest. [color=f49ac2]"What can I say? It's in my nature."[/color] Her shaky voice echoed throughout the white room, and she slowly advanced on the Nocturne; the succubus' fingers were still wrapped tightly around his wrist while she brought her face closer to his own. Nuna's lips were parted as she closed in on him, and he could already feel the energy seeping out of him.

[color=ed1c24]"Keep an Essentia even further."[/color] He spoke lowly, an impish grin taking over his semblance. He loosened his grip on Nuna's head, and his irises formed a ring of white around the edges as a strong gust of wind pushed her backwards. The current expanded from his gloved hand in the form of a thick mist, and it proceeded to fill the room and hinder the vision of those dwelling within it. The temperature of the room dropped in conjunction with the vapor that Daichi had laced with rime.
