"Tell me, fox boy..right now...what Meiji emperor sits upon the throne?" The demon asked, his eyes seeming to show some curiosity in it.

Tanjiro body went stiff, wondering why the demon asked that kind of question. But he answered anyways. "The imperial family is Taisho!" Tanjiro knew he shouldn't be answering the demons questions, yet, he couldn't help but wonder why and answer it anyways. The answer Tanjiro gave to the demon made it shiver, shiver with anger. "Gaaaagh! I've been here so long..that dynasties have risen and fallen!!" The demon yelled out in anger, soon to start causing self-harm to itself out of anger.

"Again and again! All while I've been trapped here!!" The demon continued to yell out in anger, saying things that confused Tanjiro and the young man behind him.

"Damn Urokodaki! Damn Urokodaki! Damn Urokodaki! Damn him!!" The demon cussed out a name, a name that was very familiar to Tanjiro. "You know Uro-" Tanjiro tried to ask the demon, only to get interrupted immediately by the demon. "Oh, I know him! Urokodaki was the one who captured me! I will never forget!" The demon said aloud, empathizing 'never' aloud as well. "It's been forty seven torturous years!" The demon yelled out how long it has been, how long he has been trapped in the final selection. "Back then he was still a demon slayer!" The demon started explaining about it too, ranting it all out when it happened. "In the Edo Period..the Keio Era!" The demon yelled out, surprising both the males in front of him. 'Demon slayer..Edo Period?!' Tanjiro repeated those words in his head, his eyes widening more than they already were. "You're lying!" The young man behind tanjiro yelled out, hint of fear in his voice. "No demon here has been alive that long! Lies!" The young man explains, doubting that a demon has been alive that long in the final selection. "They only put demons here that have eaten two or three people.." The young man explained more, which caused Tanjiro to look behind him a little out of the corner of his eyes. "..And they get killed during selection! Plus, the demons eat each other too!" The young man added another fact, a fact that demons eat each other for survival. "But I have survived a very long time. In this prison..of wisteria blossoms...I have eaten fifty of you brats!" The demon replied, truthfully saying how he survived for a long time.

'Fifty?!' Tanjiro repeated the number in his head, shocked on how the demon ate so many in the final selection.

"Remember.." Urokodaki said, looking at Tanjiro who was cutting his long, burgundy hair. "..A demons strength comes from the number of people it has consumed." Urokodaki explained, making Tanjiro pause himself from cutting his hair for a moment.

"If it eats many people it gets stronger?" Tanjiro asked, holding a chunk of his hair in his hand, while his other hand was occupied with great katana scissors.

It was when Urokodaki replied back after he looked away from Tanjiro, focusing on the futon he was preparing for Tanjiro. "That's right. They grow stronger.." Tanjiro stared at Urokodaki with wonder, not focusing on cutting his long hair anymore. "..And some physically change, gaining unnatural powers." Urokodaki continued with his explaining, knowing it happened by something having to do with the past.
