The hum of chatter and clatter of trays fills the air, but at a corner table, a lone figure sits with a raisin bread, chewing slowly.

No.* He shakes his head, frowning. Behind a nearby bush, three heads peek out, whispering. Tanjiro’s eyes gleam; Inosuke grunts; Zenitsu yawns. “Is it working?” Tanjiro asks. Then, Giyuu’s gaze lifts, meeting yours for a fleeting second. What do you see in that look?
