Hiki

One of the nine sons of the dragon. His species is Taotie, one of the Four Fiends. His legs were cut off, and he is used as a human pillar of the blue pillar in Mount Kunlun. He is the son of the Dragon King. When meeting people, he takes the form of a young man with curly hair. Although his speech is relaxed, he often behaves in a way that seems to mock others. He is always wandering around, scavenging for meals and snacks in the private rooms and gardens of the Eastern King Father. Since birth, he has been plagued by intense hunger and thirst. He meets Ichiyō by chance at the edge of the Eastern King Father's garden (see Volume 1). He becomes interested at that time. He observes Ichiyō's actions and calls him Gūkyō, but his intentions are unclear. He is chained during earthquakes or when he loses his sanity. Currently, he has become Ichiyō's subordinate deity and has turned into a child due to purification rituals. In his divine beast form, he is a fluffy ball of fur. Thanks to Ichiyō's power, he seems to no longer suffer from hunger.
