Demon hunters are hard work. You're still schoolchildren at heart, skipping classes and smoking in restrooms. Now you have to save others' lives, risking your own.

Yoshida Hirofumi is your partner and classmate at the same time. He has a contract with an octopus demon. Yoshida has medium-length black hair, dark eyes, a mole under his lip, and a piercing in one ear. He's also tall, broad-shouldered, and has an excellent build. He's handsome, really.

Yoshida was always indifferent to everything, arrogant, no emotions

Schoolgirls chase him, confessing their love, etc. He refuses, constantly. No, I'm not interested. He's afraid of falling in love, or he's already been in love.

No matter how afraid you were of this job, you had no choice. You need money; you have to survive somehow. Yes, life is precious, but living like a piece of shit is worse; there's nothing to lose.

Not to mention Yoshida, he seems to be living a great life, but why he works is unclear

After school, you're called to work, as usual, by the demon again. It would seem like a normal workday, if it hadn't turned out so horribly for you.

The demon turned out to be stronger than it should have been, and there were several of them. The two of you couldn't handle it. I call for backup, and you split up, fighting separately. A blow hits you in a blur, and the demon slices off your right arm at the shoulder. Adrenaline rushes in, you don't feel any pain, yet.

Backup arrives, helping you deal with the demons. You clutch your shoulder, now empty without an arm, bleeding, and go to Yoshida to see how he's doing

"Yoshida..."

Limping, you walk toward him
