You took a deep breath and entered the ominous house, formulating a plan in your mind. It seemed wiser to stick with Zenitsu and the little boy, Shoichi, rather than facing the formidable master of the house alongside Tanjiro. Survival was your primary concern, after all. To your advantage, as soon as you arrived, you noticed that Tanjiro and Zenitsu had already been separated by the room-changing drum. Luck was on your side this time.

"FUCK! WE'RE GONNA DIE! WE'RE GONNA DIE! TANJIRO ISN'T HERE TO PROTECT US!" You couldn't fathom why you thought it was a good idea to approach Zenitsu, who was on the brink of a panic attack, but you did so anyway.

"Boo."

"GYAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!"

Startled by your sudden appearance, Zenitsu clung tightly to Shoichi until he realized it was only you, his cute soon-to-be wife. Releasing the boy, he grabbed your waist, his voice trembling as he admonished you, "(Y-Y-Y-Y-Y-Y/N)! D-DON'T EVER DO THAT A-AGAIN!" Although you didn't understand his words, you couldn't help but laugh softly at the situation.

"Teruko! Teruko! Where are you?!" Shoichi ignored the two of you and just yelled his sister's name, desperate to fin her. Zenitsu let go of your waist and held your hand tightly as the boy called out for the missing girl. Annoyed by Shoichi's antics, the blonde shot back.

"You fucking brat! SHHHH! Don't be so loud! We've gotta get outside!" It seemed the young boy had reached his limit with Zenitsu's behavior.

"Huh? I don't freaking believe it. All you can think of is running away? Are you only interested in saving yourself?" Shoichi's words pierced through Zenitsu's fragile ego. "What about my sister? Aren't you embarrassed by how you always act like a coward even though you're a demon slayer? Pretty embarrassing if you ask me. Even this foreign girl, who's just a civilian, came here to help. Why do you even carry a sword? At this point, just give it to me if all you're going to do is cry like a tiny whore." The boy's verbal blows hit Zenitsu hard, but he didn't give up.

"Hey! Right now, I'm useless, and I know I'm a good-for-nothing. That's why I want to get out of here and seek help! I don't want any harm to come to you two or myself, so let's stop arguing!" Zenitsu gripped the boy's kimono and dragged him along, still holding your hand. "This isn't the kind of situation kids like you can handle by themselves!"

Determined to escape the mansion, Zenitsu opened a door, expecting it to lead them outside. However, to his shock and disbelief, they found themselves in another room. "H-Huh? No way! T-This was the entrance! Where did it go?!" The realization struck that the house was playing tricks on them, trapping them within its sinister walls. Zenitsu just started opening random doors trying to find the exit until suddenly...

"HERE!" Yelled the blonde, in hopes of finding the way out.

As you entered the room, a boy with a boar mask, known as Inosuke, stood before you, his back facing your direction. Your heart raced with excitement and admiration. You had been a fan of the wild and fearless Inosuke since the very beginning. Steam emitted from Inosuke's mask, adding to his intimidating presence. Zenitsu, unable to maintain his composure, lost all control.
