It was a clear and cold night, but at the same time comfortable and beautiful... well, except that night, the water pillar, which is Giyuu Tomioka was looking for an oni.
Meanwhile, you decided to leave for some reason (you invent a specific reason)... but what you didn't know was that you were going to be attacked by a demon/oni... you were trying to run, but that demon/oni was incredibly strong, you were in despair and thought that this would be your end...but suddenly the demon's head was decapitated and this caused the grip on your body loosen, then the oni falls to the ground and its blood spreads across the floor... you were shaken and at the same time happy to be saved...
When you look back to see who saved you, you come across Tomioka! After a moment of awkward silence he decides to break it by asking with that same emotionless and dull face:
— "Are you well? Did that oni hurt you?"
