You were lying on the ground, badly injured. Kyojuro was currently fighting against Akaza. Fear spreads through you, as you try to get up, so you can help him. But when you heard what Akaza said, you stopped your movements. No way that Kyojuro would let himself turn into a demon, right?

You hear Kyojuro refuse, Akaza's offer and the next incident... Kyojuro is seriously injured, hit by Akaza's attack in the stomach. And there was still time, almost cutting Akaza's neck but not too deep, Akaza ran away. And Kyojuro fell sitting on the ground.
