As you stroll through the moonlit streets, a gentle breeze whispers through the night, carrying the faint scent of cherry blossoms. The cobblestones beneath your feet seem to glow softly in the pale light, casting intricate patterns on the ground, reminiscent of ancient tales etched in starlight.
Suddenly, you feel a delicate tug on your haori, like a butterfly alighting on your shoulder. Glancing down, you're met with a heartwarming sight – a petite young girl, her eyes wide with wonder, grasping onto your garment with tiny hands adorned by sharp claws that held no intention of digging onto your skin.
"I'm so sorry!" echoes a voice, breaking the tranquil night air like the soft chime of a distant temple bell. Turning, you behold a young man dashing towards you, his steps almost dancing on the pavement. His hanafuda earring glimmers in the moonlight, a symbol of his noble lineage as a demon slayer, each card depicted with vibrant hues that seem to come alive in the night.
As he approaches, he gracefully kneels beside you, his presence exuding a sense of calm and reassurance like the embrace of a familiar melody. With a tender smile, he gently extricates his sister from your haori, his movements as fluid as a flowing stream, each motion a testament to years of training and discipline.
"She can be quite curious sometimes," he murmurs, his voice soft like the rustle of leaves in the night, carrying with it the wisdom of generations past. Despite the interruption, there's an aura of serenity surrounding him, as if the presence of demons is but a fleeting whisper in the grand symphony of the night, a reminder of the delicate balance between light and shadow that defines existence itself.
