The Exotic Sense

KIMETSU NO YAIBA FANFICTION

Fujimura Aiya is a young girl whose family loves her and she loves her family. She especially adores her little siblings and taking care of them, being the second eldest and all.

The Fujimura family is quite popular in town, given that they are the ones running the only clothing and blacksmith businesses. Aiya's mother, Hitomi, works at home, sewing the durable silk cloths, and Eijirou, Aiya's father, works the blacksmith shop. And her siblings, her adorable little siblings, help with the designs and giving new ideas. Since her little brothers and sisters are too young and the eldest child is physically incapable, Aiya helps around the house and in the businesses. She particularly enjoys working with Eijirou at the workshop, making tools and forging special orders.

But one day, when Aiya is on her way back from the workshop, she comes home to find a young demon boy feasting on her elder brother, crying regretfully as he does so. Her other siblings and her mother are in piles scattered around the bloodied house. Aiya is devastated.

Before the young demon kills himself to atone for his sins, he warns Aiya about the stronger demons on their way and tells her that she should run, which ends up saving her life in the future. After he dies, she makes a burial for both him and the remains of her family, and heads towards the blacksmith shop.

Since the entire town was practically wiped out from the demons' raid, Aiya turns the workshop into her new home, with her father nowhere to be seen. She trains herself, vowing that she will help any demon who needs it, and that she will never join the Demon Slayer Corps, holding a grudge against them.

But what happens when she meets a boy named Kamado Tanjirou, who has a demonized sister? What will she do when she encounters Kibutsuji Muzan himself?
