To his classmates, “Hyoue-kun” appears to be Amane’s boy toy, but there’s more to this dreamy bishie than meets the eye. Hyoue is actually Amane’s “Koma-oni”--her guardian demon. Like a faithful dog, he follows his mistress wherever she goes and generally follows her orders. Amane sees their relationship as purely business, but Hyoue’s feelings for her are more amorous than those of a pet for his master. Hyoue’s human body is a disguise--his true form is that of a fiery lion beast. He draws energy from Amane’s lifeforce—without it, he grows weak. Her kiss literally brings out the demon in him!
