(Chiasa POV:)

We were twins born into a poor family. Our mother was very kind and patient, and our father was strong but also a very good man. I lived happily with my sister, Akahana, until one day disaster struck. One day, our mother didn’t come home from work, and our father went out to find her. I was comforting my sister, telling her everything would be fine, when we heard a loud scream. We went outside and found our father holding someone in his arms. When we looked closer, we realized it was our mother, but... she was dead.

Our father grieved deeply. Akahana and I were still young and didn’t understand what had happened to our mother, but we knew we would never see her again. Now, I realize that our mother was probably attacked by a demon, as no human being could have harmed her like that.

For the first few weeks after this terrible incident, our home was relatively peaceful. However, after some time, our father started drinking heavily and forgot about us. Despite this, we were lucky that there was always something to eat on the table, so life wasn’t too hard. Until one day, our father decided he could use the money meant for food to buy more alcohol, and so he sold me and my sister to the red-light district. We were taken in by the 'Tokito' house. At first, it was hard to adjust, but we eventually got used to it and even made friends with some of the other girls there. We lived happily for two or three years. But one morning, the worst happened—the house was attacked by a demon.

(Akahana POV:)

A girl came to us and told us we needed to get out of there. By then, the whole country was aware of the existence of these creatures, who had started appearing even during the day. Chiasa and I immediately tried to escape, but I fell along the way. I heard the demon approaching and yelled at my sister to run. However, she didn’t leave me; instead, she helped me up, and we hid in the darkest corner of the room, hoping no one would find us. Unfortunately, the demon sensed us and started approaching. Chiasa and I stayed silent, hoping it would pass us by. But we were wrong. The creature suddenly attacked, and we both dodged to the side. For the moment, no one was hurt. We avoided a few more attacks, and the demon left us alone for a bit. Chiasa stood in front of me to protect me if necessary. But it wasn't needed. The monster offered to turn us into demons. My sister and I agreed because otherwise, we would have been killed. From that day on, we became identical creatures who attacked and fed on humans.

(Chiasa POV:)

At first, everything was great. We no longer had to do housework or worry about food. My sister and I discovered that the more people we ate, the stronger we became. Until then, we hadn’t encountered any demon slayers and had honestly forgotten about their existence. But one evening, we were attacked by a Hashira. He had blonde hair and brownish eyes and moved faster than lightning. At that moment, I realized this might be the end. So, I hugged Akahana and closed my eyes, waiting for the strike. In the next moment, both of us fell unconscious. When we woke up, we found ourselves in a small grove surrounded by wisteria. In this grove, children often came, and my sister and I took pleasure in killing and devouring them. Eventually, however, we found we couldn’t survive on just one meal a week. So, one day, we attacked a weaker demon and devoured it. Since then, we started feeding not only on humans but also on our own kind. But then those two appeared and killed us...

(Akahana POV:)

As I felt my head and body slowly disintegrating, I remembered our past. I felt terrible because it was I who insisted we become demons to survive, so all the blame was mine. But my sister didn’t say anything. She didn’t reproach me; instead, she smiled. She had forgiven me. In our final moment, I heard our mother's voice calling us to come with her. I closed my eyes, smiled, and Chiasa and I followed her...
