"Welcome to Demon Slayer Online! Please create your profile..."
(Y/n)'s eyes scanned the digital tab as a little mischievous grin appeared on her face. "Username, password, appearance, and status.." She mumbled to herself as she brushed a loose strand of her hair aside.
"Hm..." She tilted her head as she stared blankly at the empty ceiling. Shaking her head, she brushed the thought aside. "I guess I should enter a nickname as my userna—"
"—My little angel~!" The woman spoke as she nuzzled the infant's nose. Letting out a soft giggle, she rocked the child to sleep in her arms.
A man who looked no older than thirty sat down next to the woman as he smiled at the mother and daughter duo. "______ really did take after you, dear." He quietly spoke as he didn't want to disturb the sleeping child who was resting in his the arms of his wife.
The woman glanced up at her husband, as a light smile graced her lips. "Mm, she really did." She whispered as she brought the child closer to her. Her (e/c) eyes snapped back at her husband who was sitting next to her. She suspiciously narrowed her eyes at the man, as she looked him up and down. "Did you put _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _, and _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ to sleep yet?"
"O-of course I did!" The man stammered as he diverted his attention back to his daughter. "W-we shouldn't be so loud o-or else she might wake up."
Realizing that she was still holding onto her daughter who could of easily been smooshed, the woman quickly lost all her aggression.
"You're right." The woman mumbled as she placed a kiss on her daughter's forehead. Although she was still an infant, the woman could tell that the child in her arms would one day become someone who could easily capture the hearts of many. "Awh, but I don't want my little angel to leave me..." She groaned as she poked the child's soft baby face.
The man chuckled at his wife's antics as he gently held onto his daughter's little hand. "If anything, we'll be the ones to leave first..." He whispered to himself as a wistful expression crossed onto his face.
The woman ignored her sulking husband as she carefully placed the infant back into her crib. "I'm sure that she'll grow up to be a wonderful, and respectful young lady someday." She smiled as she reached for her husband's hand. The two intertwined their hands as they lovingly gazed at the child. We love you with all our heart—"
"(N/n)."

"Who the hell was that...?"
(Y/n) froze as several different voices buzzed throughout her mind. Her mood had done a whole 180, and her playfulness was quickly replaced with confusion, and indignation. She carefully entered in the letters of her nickname with precision as her entire body was shaking.
'Please confirm if you wish to use, '(N/n)' as your username.'
Without hesitation, (Y/n)'s fingers brushed against the 'yes' button. There was a soft click, indicating that her username had been processed, and confirmed by the administration. Ignoring the voices from earlier, (Y/n) dubbed it as irrelevant.
"Ah, right." (Y/n) muttered. She reached for the second button, 'Appearances and skills', only for her hand to slip through the digital tab. "What type of cheap, and shitty game is this?" She cursed under her breath as her left eye twitched in irritation. Not understanding what was happening, she tried once again.
c r a c k . . .
She leapt back in instinct as her eyes were locked onto the glitching digital tab. The screen flickered a couple of times, before it finally landed on something. (Y/n) took a couple of steps closer to see what was on the screen, only to be blinded by a hazardous shade of white.
"YOUR ATTEMPT HAS FAILED, ERROR 404."
"YOUR ACCOUNT HAS SUCCESSFULLY BEEN CREATED!"
"... ALL SYSTEMS DEPARTING IN FIVE SECONDS!"
"holy shit, wait I didn't—"
