Time passes through the cold season forming in my heart
A cruel wind is hanging around my fingertips
The promise that couldn't be fulfilled
Saying goodbye in just one word
A random reunion without any promises
In this endless time
We painfully walk...
Towa saw herself leaping into the air, attempting to cut through the monster with a broken shinai, when all of a sudden, her view was redirected to a guy with flowing bluish hair that flows beside his head. Towa was able to make out the boy's face and it was as though his icy blue eyes were boring into her entire being.

With that, the silver-haired girl was shocked awake. Towa took deep breaths as though her lungs couldn't possibly hold any more oxygen. At that point, she became aware of the bandage that was wrapped around her legs.
"It's not a dream..."
Towa combed her hair behind her ears with her fingers while a thin stream of ice-cold sweat ran down her forehead.
She couldn't wrap her head around how she got home or how her feet were dressed so carefully, but the thing that baffled her the most was how on earth she managed to get dressed in her pajamas?!
That guy better not be the one to change her clothes!
The mere thought of it causes her cheeks to become flushed.
In any case, as soon as Towa unwrapped the bandage, the ghastly wound was gone.
'Well, it's not surprising. Back in elementary school, I got into a traffic accident and while the truck was totaled, all my injuries healed in three days!'
Towa then made an effort to remember what had transpired that day. That was a very strange run-in with someone. For someone who has never encountered a yokai before, hearing the news from a mysterious boy that she, too, was one, really dropped a bombshell on her.
Yet, Towa was quite curious about the boy whose appearance changes during the day and night. That guy appears and disappears like a brisk winter breeze and Towa wondered if she could ever meet Nura Riei again.

To think that her wish had been granted sooner than expected caused Towa to be rooted in her seat, not even a typhoon could push her off.
The last thing she expected was to go into class and see the person she's been dying to talk to wearing her school uniform and standing next to her homeroom teacher!
"Alright class, we'll be having a new transfer student joining us today."
As the new transfer student stood in front of the class, the teacher greeted him and welcomed him. His features were devoid of emotion, and his expression seemed to be saying, "If you talk to me, you're going to die."
