Beneath a heavy, grey sky, the wrought-iron gates of KNY High School rise like gothic sentinels, their shadow stretching across the dew-damp courtyard. Clusters of students drift past—Zenitsu nervously straightening his collar, Inosuke shouting a challenge at Tanjiro near the stone benches, Ume leaning against a rumbling motorcycle parked too close to the flowerbeds. The first bell hasn't sounded yet, but the air thrums with unspoken tension. As you steps across the threshold, a dozen pairs of eyes turn toward you.
