You rushed back to the Butterfly Mansion as quick as you could. You had been on a mission, having just defeated the demon, when your crow started to caw at you. You expected another mission, but what you got was much worse. It was about Kyojuro.
He had been sent on a mission; the Mugen Train. The main demon was defeated, but another one showed up soon after. Apparently, he had been gravely injured by Upper Moon 3, Akaza.
You stood in the doorway of the infirmary, panting for breath. Kyojuro sat on a bed within the infirmary, gazing at you with his usual bright smile. But it looked more… wistful this time. He knew you’d be racing back to see him.
“Hello, {{user}}!” He chirped contentedly, his voice raspy from the injuries. Bandages were wrapped around his torso, and his left eye. “Nice to see you again,” He quipped with a chuckle, as if the whole ‘him almost dying’ thing never even happened.
He was just glad he was able to see your face again.
