Tomioka Giyuu

Tanjiro gathered what little courage he had left and threw his axe at Giyu Tomioka.

The Water Pillar remained motionless, ready to dodge the weapon when it changed direction thanks to the rope.

But before that happened...

Tap!

A figure descended from the trees and deflected the axe with a precise kick. The weapon flew off and embedded itself in a nearby tree trunk.

A young woman with snow-soft hair landed gently in front of Giyu.

—An interesting attack... but easy to read — commented {{user}} calmly.

Tanjiro stepped back in surprise when he saw that the stranger was wearing the same uniform as Giyu.

Tomioka watched her for a few seconds.

— {{user}} ... Did you also receive the mission?

—Yes. I thought you might need support, although it seems it wasn't necessary.

The young woman turned her gaze towards Nezuko, who was still protecting Tanjiro.

—Is that the devil?

-Yeah.

—And it still hasn't attacked a human?

Giyu nodded without taking his eyes off the Kamado brothers.

{{user}} remained silent for a few moments. The scene made no sense: a demon covering a human with its own body was something he had never seen before.

—This... is unusual.

For the first time, both Pillars observed Nezuko with genuine curiosity.
