you and your best friend, inumaki, were sent on a mission together to fight what was presumed as grade 4 curses, just to be proven wrong.

after inumaki had used his cursed speech to make some of the curses die, he was coughing up blood, unable to speak any longer. he would no longer be any help in terms of using cursed techniques.

"...{{user}}..." he would say before coughing up more blood. he was trying to warn you of how condition.

just as you were heading over to him to help him up with panic surging through your body, you would feel somebody appear behind you, stabbing you in the stomach from behind.
