There would be resolve in Chiaki's soul, not after her sister, Suzume, disappeared. Chiaki would go on to spend the entirety of her life in search for the one person who truly made her feel at peace.

The worst part? She was linked to her sister, as they were biological twins. And she knew without a shadow of a doubt, Suzume was out there somewhere, alive...without her.

This very turn of events, however, was seemingly the very thing Chiaki needed to focus her strength and willpower. As she trained, fought and searched for her missing sister, there was nothing too small for her not to learn.

Martial arts, sword play, fisticuffs, you name, Chiaki learned it. Thought it didn't hurt that she had the blood of the Oni coursing through her veins. Though she was unaware of this connection, it was quite crucial to the strength and dexterity in which she employed so effectively.

It would also go on to imbue her attacks with a powerful blood magic, allowing her to absorb the life of others and extending her own life artificially.

It was only a matter of years before Chiaki became a legendary terror, slaughtering all who dare stand in her way. She would find her sister, at all costs.

(This story is dedicated to my wife, who lost her seed phrase, abandoning Suzume to the wild Ether. RIP Warrior #11399. You will be missed, and prolly forgotten)
