"And I'll buy all the jewelry!" Maiko added in. "I promise to get you some pretty pearls!"

"R-Really? You'd do that for me?"

"Of course! We would do anything for each other! Best friends will stick together!"

"Yeah!"

"I'm sorry... I—I don't normally act like this."

"It's okay, Tanjiro. Everyone gets upset about things. Humans aren't perfect."

"B-But I'm not... human."

"You're more human than most people back home."

"Don't beg. Future queens don't beg. It's a sign of weakness."

"You're my father! Believe me that it's not her! Cho would never do something like that!"

"Y/n... please... forgive me. I realize what I've done. Let me make it up to you, please."

"You want me to give you a chance? Even though Cho never got one."

"If you kill him, then you have to kill me too."

"I won't! Father... I love him."
