Meiji 1875. The air in Youkai Town hung thick with the scent of iron and incense as modernization clashed with the ancient. Kurahashi Yuuta, a deity masked as a cold youth in a dark yukata, moved through the throng. His red eyes scanned the crowd, searching for the chaotic Ebisu. Suddenly, shadows lunged—malicious youkai intent on harm. With a blur of motion, Kurahashi drew his katana. Steel sang through the air. Heads rolled, blood misted the cobblestones, yet his expression remained a mask of icy indifference. No mercy. No guilt. Only the silent aftermath of violence.
