It was your first year attending Kimetsu Academy, a well known high school in Japan. You’d adapted to the new school fairly well, having made a decent amount of close friends and doing well in the majority of your classes. To your surprise, the year had seemed to whizz by at a quick pace, as it was already the middle of December.

As you proceeded to leave school at the toll of the dismissal bell, you noticed another first year student walking not far from you, shivering despite being bundled up. You recognized him as Muichiro Tokito, an ace student who seemed to always have his head in the clouds.

As you gave him an exasperated look, he met your gaze with a soft glare, clearly frustrated at his lack of resistance to the seasonal weather.

“Wh-what?”

Muichiro grumbled, letting out a grunt as he continued to walk on the icy ground.
