O. Iguro; Why I Chose You

6: Eudaimonia

A/n: Happy Friday:) The fires here are ultimately getting worse and my throat is on literal fire. Regardless of where you live, stay safe and healthy! Only a few chapters left to publish I believe, I also stopped doing the colored manga photos because I've gotten too busy to draw over them.

"Y/n seems to be able to hold in the urge to consume human blood but healing or regeneration will not work well enough unless she did consume human blood. Even then, she progressively will get weaker if we don't find an alternative." Sanemi scowls at the demons in front of him. Never did he ever imagine having to accept two more demons.

"Lady Tamayo, what are the odds that she'll be able to stand under the sun again?" Tengen asks the demon doctor who can only sigh, handing the vial of blood from Tanjiro to Yushiro who has an irk mark on his face.

"Unfortunately, it isn't quite one hundred percent yet. We're still working on it as we spe-" Sanemi lets out a loud grunt, tugging on the shoulders of Tamayo before Yushiro steps in.

Arguing is heard from left to right. With Tengen and Sanemi bickering mixed in with Yushiro's loud yells, it was the loudest room in the estate. Obanai stays quietly on the side, his hand connected to
Y/n's as she slowly starts to awaken. A small frown on her face as she sees how injured Tengen was. "Stop... please." Y/n mutters out to no avail as the quarrel continues to get louder and louder.

Y/n struggles to sit herself up only to get startled by Obanai's loud yell, throwing off everyone in the room. "STOP!" They all turn to face Y/n who frowns upon seeing her older brothers now patched eye.

"Aniki!" Getting out of Obanai's grasp, she once again finds her way to wrap her arms around his shoulder before hugging Sanemi tightly, for he had been the last to be notified of her awakening.

"Your eye really is blinded! If only I had been there earlie-" Tengen pats her head with a smile.

"No big deal. Look, we even got matching eyepatches." Tengen grins widely before pointing to himself with confidence.

Obanai can only watch as he's suddenly greeted with a memory dug deep inside of his brain.

"IGURO-SAN! YOU'RE INJURED, LET'S GO BACK TO OLD MAN JIGORO TO GET YOU HELP!" With the only two to make it out of final selection, the ore picking was quite fast, much to Obanai's liking as he had no intention of talking to the only survivor who he had been trying to get away from for weeks.

Despite Obanai meeting her beforehand many times, he tried his best to avoid her. Seeing as Tengen went on to final selection without her, Jigoro first took Y/n to the Rengoku estate to train with Obanai which Obanai wanted to refuse to but still hadn't been able to since she came over every other day.

"I'm sorry Iguro, if only I hadn't-" Obanai snatches his wrist away from from the young girl before shoving her back.

"Leave me the hell alone!" Obanai spat out before wiping the blood off of his mouth before gasping. The realization had just hit him.

He had to use his bandages to cover a wound, leaving his scar to be exposed by everyone.

Everyone as in Uzui Y/n.

Obanai turns to walk away from the girl quickly while feeling embarrassed only to feel the small hand grab onto his before he could move away. He turns around to yell at her once again but stops when he sees a red tint color her face with a pretty smile to compliment it.

"How pretty..." Y/n mutters out before they both turn to cover their faces in embarrassment, not long after did Y/n try to cover up her embarrassment and change the topic.
