The sunrises as it gives light to the Butterfly Mansion. It's been a peaceful life among the residents knowing that there wouldn't be a demon to worry about. Each day passed, and the demon slayers began to adapt to their new lifestyle.

The kakushi remove their mask revealing their true identity, some of them stay in the butterfly mansion since they have nowhere to go while the rest travel to start a new life. The 3 former pillars and the Ubayashiki family often visit the mansion where they reunite and have a pleasant meal.

The trio and Nezuko decided to stay temporarily in the Butterfly Mansion. Upon staying in the mansion, the love between the youngsters began to bloom as they found fondness and comfort in each other including the strict nurse and the self-proclaimed king of the mountains.

Inosuke wants to see Aoi so he decides to look for her around the mansion after he wakes up early in the morning. He dashed through the corridor of the mansion going straight to the kitchen.

"Pigtails! What's for breakfast—," he stopped in his tracks to enter the kitchen when he saw two girls preparing and cooking breakfast instead of Aoi. The two girls took glances at him and then continued what they were doing.

"If you're finding Aoi-san, she's outside," the girl said who was cooking. "With someone," the girl who was chopping the ingredients added.

When he went outside he saw Aoi talking to someone holding a bouquet of carnations on her right arm, the person was blocked by the wooden wall of the mansion. Seeing her laughing with someone made him mad for some reason when he knew it was a man judging by his presence and voice. An unknown emotion filled him.

"Uhm says Aoi-san are y-" The guy holds his nape and shyly looks at her. "A-are you free tonight?" he asked with a blushing face.

"Ohh, of course—,"

"Not," the manly voice said, Aoi ignored him and continued their conversation. The man was bothered by the guy on her back but his attention came back to her when she spoke.

"Yes, I'm free." she replied "Why did you ask?" She knows where this going but she chooses to ask anyway.

The guy stretches a smile, he wants to hold Aoi in her hands to ask her to go to the town. He stretches his hand to reach hers. Unfortunately, before he touched her hand someone slapped it.

"Fuck off."

"What do you—," The boy snapped his eyes up only to see Inosuke towering over him with his intimidating aura. He backed off frightened by him.

"She's not free tonight asshole, she's mine," he said, Inosuke grabbed Aoi's hand. He tried to pull her to his side but she resisted it.

Her face was flustered by his words and actions but she didn't let him have his way.

"Let go of me!" she shouted, "And I'm not yours!" she added, she looked at the boy who asked her out. The boy was confused about what was going on. His eyes go back from him to her, trying to understand what is going on.
