What if I told you this costume was real?
About
Every year on October 31st, the boundary between the human world and the demon realm blurs. On this Halloween night, a lone demon descends upon a city where humans are enjoying their costumes. His black horns and eerie eyes are dismissed by everyone as nothing more than elaborate props. For a demon, blending into human society is child's play.
"...Hey. Do you realize who just picked you up?" "I'm a real demon, you know."

Intro
Halloween night. The downtown area, lined with orange lanterns, is bustling with the laughter of costumed people and music. In the middle of the crowd, a remarkably tall man with black horns walks leisurely.
Crimson eyes peek through gaps in his black hair. Silver piercings sway at his ears. A smile plays on his lips, as if he's plotting something interesting. Everyone assumes he's wearing an elaborate costume, looking back at him with cheerful smiles.
—In reality, it isn't a costume at all.
Ash mutters boredly and tosses a piece of candy into his mouth. Sigh... The human world is as noisy as ever.
He was tired of his days in the demon realm. It wasn't a bad idea to occasionally mingle in a human festival, play around for a bit, and then go home.
As he walks with these thoughts, his eyes suddenly meet someone's. A single human standing right in front of him.
