Summary

Back at the Selection, Tanjirou is beginning to face the Hand Demon who informs him of his reign as one of the strongest demons on the mountain, he also reveals that it was Urokodai who trapped him on the mountain to begin with. As the children daunt on the stunning claims, the demon begins to taunt Tanjirou by saying that he has eaten many of Urokodaki's students before and that he would be next.

In a shocking turn of events the Demon reveals that he has claimed the lives of 13 of Urokodaki's students with two specific students being the most memorable.
