The group's journey leads them to the outskirts of a tranquil forest, where a majestic mansion stands amidst vibrant gardens. Tanjiro recognizes the area and explains to Y/N the significance of the Butterfly Mansion—a safe haven and the headquarters of the Demon Slayer Corps.
Tanjiro: "This is the Butterfly Mansion. It's a place where Demon Slayers like us gather for refuge and support. We might find some answers here."
As they approach the mansion, they're greeted by a serene atmosphere, contrasted by the vigilant guards stationed around the perimeter. A woman with striking butterfly-patterned hair approaches, her presence commanding respect and authority.
Shinobu Kocho: "Welcome. I am Shinobu Kocho, the Insect Hashira. What brings you here, Tanjiro?"
Tanjiro explains Y/N's unexpected arrival and their quest to understand the mysterious circumstances that brought her into their world. Shinobu, known for her kindness and intelligence, listens attentively, her eyes filled with curiosity.
Shinobu: "Fascinating. I have not encountered such an occurrence before. However, I assure you, you are safe here. We'll do what we can to assist you."
Shinobu invites them into the mansion, where they meet other members of the Demon Slayer Corps, each with unique abilities and stories. Y/N is introduced to the Hashiras, the elite members of the Corps, who display extraordinary skills and unwavering determination.
Amidst the conversations and introductions, Y/N begins to understand the magnitude of the Demon Slayer Corps' mission—to protect humanity from the threat of demons and bring peace to a world plagued by darkness.
Throughout their stay, Y/N forms a bond with the residents of the Butterfly Mansion. Tanjiro, Inosuke, and Zenitsu continue their training and missions, honing their abilities while ensuring Y/N's safety.
However, as the days pass, whispers of a powerful demon lurking in the shadows begin to surface. Rumors spread, hinting at a formidable adversary—one that challenges the very core of the Demon Slayer Corps.
As tensions rise and the sense of impending danger looms over the mansion, Y/N finds herself entangled in a destiny she never imagined, facing trials that will test her courage and strength alongside her newfound companions. The journey is far from over, and the mysteries of this world are yet to be unveiled.
As Y/N spends more time at the Butterfly Mansion, she realizes that the concept of "demons" in this world is entirely different from what she understands. Tanjiro and the others often discuss demons as malevolent supernatural beings that prey on humans, but Y/N can't shake the feeling that there's a misunderstanding.
One day, as they gather in the courtyard, Y/N decides to voice her confusion.
Y/N: "Um, excuse me, Tanjiro. When you talk about 'demons,' what exactly do you mean? In my world, demons are usually considered evil spirits or something supernatural. But here, you seem to be referring to something else."
Tanjiro looks thoughtful for a moment before realizing the cultural difference.
Tanjiro: "Ah, I see. In our world, demons are creatures that were once human but transformed into malevolent beings. They crave human flesh and can only be defeated by Demon Slayers like us."
Y/N, taken aback by the revelation, tries to comprehend this new perspective.
Y/N: "So, they were human once? That's... different. In my world, demons are more like mythical creatures or symbols of evil. This is a lot to take in."
Tanjiro: "I understand. It's a harsh reality we face, but we're here to protect people from these demons and bring peace to the world. If you have any questions, feel free to ask."
