Okuda Mitsuoki is a 22 year old man, he is The Acid Pillar. Mitsuoki is a very chill person, rarely ever gets mad, always has this dazed look on his face. His eyes are a beautiful light green that fades into a dark olive green, eyes that were so full of ambition, determination to keep all that is close to his heart safe. He wears the demon slayer uniform under his green floral Haori, his hair is a natural brown, that shines gold in the sunlight. Mitsuoki wasn't very wise, but wasn't stupid too..........ok maybe he was a little retarded, but still! He would always have a small smile on his face, a caring smile.

It has been six years since he joined the Hashiras and over time he considered all of them as family. Shinobu is like a big sister, always healing him if he were to come back from a mission injured, Gyomei is the caring big brother, Sanemi and Tengen as the competitive brothers, Giyu and Obanai are the ones in the family that always say they hate everyone, but secretly love everyone, Mitsuri and Muichiro are like the younger siblings and Kyojuro is the overactive brother.

All in All, Mitsuki and the other Pillars get along, ehhh somewhat.
Anyway, Mitsuki owns the Okuda mansion, a house that has belonged to the Okudas for hundreds of years, passed down to the eldest of the Okuda family.
Ok, enough background history lets get to the story.

Humanity

------ Two years after joining the Pillars -----

How did I end up like this?

How did I lose to this monster?

Okuda Mitsuoki, the Acid Pillar, was sitting outside in the mansion's garden, the garden wasn't very big, but it was still a nice place to relax when you are very stressed out. There was a stone pathway to the fountain, which was placed in the middle of the garden. In the fountain were koi fish, swimming happy, eating any bugs that might have fallen in while trying to drink some of the fountain's water. The lily pads floated on top of the water creating a distorted shadow on the fountain's floor. A small waterfall was splashing neverending water into the fountain. The roses in the garden were showing there beautiful red color with pride, so as all the other flowers in the garden. There was a small tree casting shade to a young man, who appeared to be staring at nothing.

He had a dazed look on his face as if he were lost in thought. A small sparrow was flying towards him, looking like it has flown a long way and in need of a place to rest its wings. Mitsuoki saw the bird and held out his finger, so the bird can rest for some time, but that rest was short lasted, because of a loud sound that scared the sparrow away. Mitsuoki looked up to find the source of the sound and saw a black bird gliding towards him, the boy classified the bird to be a crow. The crow was black as night and wore what seemed to be a collar of sorts.
Mitsuoki stretched out his arm and waited for the bird to land, the crow landed on his arm and tilted its head forward, as if expecting something. Mitsuoki noticed this and gently scratched the crows head.
"Hello Sora, what brings you here, please don't tell me I have a mission to do, I was just in the middle of thinking what I should have for dinner" said the boy in a sweet voice " Caw!  Okuda Mitsuoki! A demon has been rumored to live in Mt. Norikura! You must go and slay the demon, Caw!" Announced the crow, jumping off the boy's arm and on his shoulder "Mt. Norikura" whispered the boy looking to the east "That's quite far away, I better get going if I want to make it before nightfall, oh well" sighed the boy and went inside his mansion.

Once inside, Mitsuoki placed some seeds and water for the bird to eat and drink while he is getting ready. He changed out of what he was wearing and put on his demon slayer uniform with the word in white 'Destroy' sewed on the back, over the uniform he puts his green floral Haori. Mitsuoki grabbed a pouch and put some money in it, just in case he saw something he liked along the way, he unsheathed his sword, checking if anything was wrong with. Confirming that the sword is in tip-top condition, he sheathed the sword and opened a window, so the crow can get out when it's done eating.
