The 1-A heroes were sitting in the living area of their dorms. They had all finished moving in earlier today. Aizawa told them all to gather there after they were finished, but they didn't know why. When the main door opened and the Hashira and the other eight came in, they understood. They all stood almost at attention near the window.

"I'll let you guys get your confessional underway," Aizawa said.

He walked away from the group. As soon as he left the front door, the class almost began to ambush them with questions. But before anyone could ask any questions, all of the Demon Slayers, except Inosuke, who only joined after Aoi lightly jabbed his side, bowed in humility. The class was silenced by shock.

"We would all like to apologize for not explaining ourselves at an earlier time. We humbly beg your forgiveness for our secrecy, and should you wish it, we will leave this school never to return," Rengoku said.

Everyone was shocked at the humility and sincerity. For a solid few seconds, nobody said anything. At last, Iida spoke up.

"Why do we get final say? Isn't that something only Nezu can do?" He asked.

"Nezu already knew of our situation. And because your class is the one we have had the most interactions with he decided that you should have final say," Himejima said.

"This isn't exactly something we can decide, you know, spur of the moment," Sato said

"We could leave while you discuss it..." Aoi suggested.

"We simply wish for an explanation. Who are you? What are Demon Slayers? We shall decide after we know more about you all," Iida asked.

"Well... it's a long story," Giyu said.

"We have plenty of time," Todoroki said.

"Well, we are Demon Slayers, but this you know. We are a clandestine organization that fought against a... it's hard to call them a subspecies when they are superior to humans in virtually every way. Superhuman strength, regeneration, immunity to poisons, other than poisons crafted with wisteria. They were called Demons," Obanai said.

"Demons are beings of Christian mythology. What do you mean you fought against them?" Yaoyorozu asked.

"Not these demons. They had a taste for human flesh. They devoured humans to gain strength. They all came from one man... actually, it'd be better to call him a monster. Muzan Kibutsuji," Sanemi said.

"The man from the fight with All Might last night?" Kaminari asked.

"That was no man. That was the Great Demon Progenitor. The one whom all demonkind are born. He is the eternal enemy of the Demon Slayer Corps," Shinobu said.

"The Great Progen... that's who Shigaraki told you about?" Midoriya asked Tanjiro.

"Yes. He is our mortal enemy. But... he was already dead when we came here," Tanjiro replied.

The confusion was amplified.

"Tanjiro already told you we don't have Quirks... well, it's because... well... we are actually not from this time," Kanao said.

Everyone was silenced once more.

"How is that possible?" Uraraka asked after thirty seconds.

"When are you guys from?" Ashido asked.

"You expect us to believe this?" Bakugo asked.

"Think what you want, but it's the truth. We're all originally from the Taisho period. For the exact details, that's a Tanjiro and Kanao question," Uzui said.
