Chapter 28

A/N: Bruh, I just realized this anime takes place a bit after the Sengoku ear in the Tisho period. I'm gonna up the realism of humans in this period since in DS they made humans seem like the nicest and most genuine creature in existence.

Especially a bit after the Sengoku period. Folks was absolutely diabolical with their actions. Even worse during the actual Sengoku period, but you get the point.

'Shinobi Style-Silent Night!'

Swiftly, Yui appeared behind a demon and covered its mouth with her hand and pulled his head back to look her in the eyes.

Shock was plastered on its face and moments later, with great force she dug the tanto into the demons neck and sliced while pulling its head further back.

It started turning to ashes before vanishing into nothingness. Yui sheathed the tanto and put it around her obi.

"That should be the last one around here right?" She asked herself. She nodded to herself and turned around as she left the forest outside of a small village's farmlands.

She planned on asking the locals where Toshikawa village was. Once she got there the farmers were extremely comforting and very nice.

They offered her food along with a place to rest for the night and even though she was hungry or tired she couldn't find it in herself to decline such hospitality.

After helping with some farm work she ate and as night fell, she immediately got the feeling of being watched. Of course she knew it was demons and snuck out to the forest to protect the farm and it's locals.

There weren't a lot of them although they were scattered. She picked up on their weird behavior of not just being alone. It was almost like they were forming little groups.

Obviously she took note of that. The demon she just killed, seemed to be; from her knowledge, the last demon stalking the farm and the farmers that had little cabins built around it with one side having and open road for travelers.

She was also informed that they're basically a pitstop for travelers to get some food before leaving on the rest of their journey.

After getting the directions she needed, she set off the next day headed north. I'd take her about 2 days at most.

…

-Some Village Close to Tokyo-

"C'mon, you gotta be faster than that." Kyoshi said as he jumped back, dodging two slashes from the demon slayers in front of him.

"Even my haori hasn't been cut yet." He added.

"Tch, we can't do much since I don't want to destroy the village." The male demon slayer said. He clinched his sword as he held it adjacent to his face.

"Yeah, we're stuck in a pretty tight position here." The female demon slayer responded.

With a quick nod towards each other, they dashed towards Kyoshi.

The woman slashed downward and Kyoshi stepped to the right while she was pulling her sword up, preparing another slash.

At the same time, the male demon slayer slashed downward, but Kyoshi easily grabbed his right wrist and squeezed it, making him drop his sword.

He then pulled the man towards the left while stepping to the right as the woman seung her blade down. She quickly stopped before she could cut the man in half, but Kyoshi didn't let them sigh in relief.

He grabbed the woman by the back of her shirt and threw her into a random building. He stepped towards the man on the ground and knelt down on one knee as he put his right hand on his shoulder.

"You become a demon slayer with this type of strength? Where's your conviction? Seems like you two are swinging nothing, but clumps of metal. You gotta swing with your feelings man." Kyoshi said with a distant gaze.

He remembered a fight from a while ago which he would never forget.

A/N: Referring to chapter 14, cannon fodder named Takume who I used for Douma. W cannon fodder btw.

As he was having those thoughts he felt something poking him where his heart would be at. He looked down and at the same time he felt something hit his neck.

The male demon slayer tried stabbing him in the heart with a tanto while the female demon tried slicing his head off. Kyoshi gained a gentle smile as he lightly tapped the guys face.

"You should've aimed for the head."

He plunged his hands into the chest of the man and ripped his heart out.

His expression of pure terror never left his face even as he hit the ground. Kyoshi sat the mans heart on his chest and gained a perverted grin as he made his head do a 180 and looked at the shaking female demon slayer.

She fell down and dropped her sword while Kyoshi stood up slowly. He made his legs get abnormally long and did the same for his arms and neck. His arms stretched out and were wiggling like noodles while his neck was twisted and his tongue looked like a snake.

"KYAAAAAAAAAAA!!!" The girl let out a high pitched shriek and moments afterwards people started looking outside.

"M-m-m-monster…"

"Monster!"

"MONSTER!!"

"DEMON!!"

"ITS A DEVIL HERE TO KILL US!!"

People screamed and ran all over the place. Crying praying and completely horrified.

"Kukukukuku"

"Hehehehe."

"Hahahahahahahaha!!"

As Kyoshi started to shrink down and go back to his human form he laughed wildly and the people were even more shocked. If it could take human form, then who's to say there isn't another demon?!

"Oh my god, the looks in everyone's faces was absolutely amazing." He said. He squatted down and looked at the woman on the ground.

"Don't worry, I have absolutely no interest in somebody that can't even get a name. I won't assault you, but sadly, you aren't gonna leave either." He said with fake sadness.

"Tell me, which way is it to the demon slayer HQ? I know there's one somewhere?" He asked already knowing he's likely not to get an answer.

"W-why would I tell you when I'm just gonna die anyway?" She asked in a trembling tone.

Kyoshi smirker and grabbed her chin bringing her face closer to his as he watched trying to pull away from him.

"I can turn you into a demon?" Kyoshi offered. He saw the perturbed look on her face and continued.

"You saw what I just did to that guy. Pulling out a heart of two wouldn't even matter to us demons. You'll have ultimate power and furthermore you'll be way stronger than you are now. Doesn't immortality sound fun?

You literally get to live forever. Don't that sound nice? You don't have to worry about death, aging, pain, losing your beauty. None of it."

His tone went from condescending to gentle while he slowly caressed her cheek with his thumb.

Her expression went from shock to bashful. She started stammering her words and couldn't fully produce a single sentence.

"Just nod yes or no." He said.

She nodded her head and Kyoshi grinned as as he opened his mouth, baring his fangs and bit down on her name while he forced blood into her system.

'Nice!' Kyoshi celebrated in his mind.

According to Muzan, the best way to get a woman to do something for you is through seduction by treating them gently. After that it's a matter if being charismatic.

He felt this was a huge win for himself since he was able to pull it off perfectly.

He stopped biting her nape and stood up as he saw her eyes go wide. She started hyperventilating as she coughed up blood and veins appeared all over her face.

"Ehh, did I do it wrong?" Kyoshi muttered as he watched her struggle.

He saw her skin go pale while her nails grew into claws. Her once black eyes turned steel blue and her hair turned white as it grew and stopped at her lower back.

She was violently moving around on the ground, holding her neck and curling into a ball before she stopped moving.

Kyoshi walked over to the body and lifted her up by her back and legs into a Princess carry as he looked at her.

"Hmm? I can get used to this." He muttered.

'Well since the village seems to have cleared out, I guess I can wait here while she's recovering.'

He walked over to a random house and walked to the back before laying her down on a futon. He then sat in a corner and sighed heavily.

"So I guess I've a traveling companion while I look for those demon slayers and that demon. Now that I think about it, won't she be hungry when she wakes up?"

Coming to that realization, Kyoshi stood up and left the house to go look for some humans. Of course they couldn't have gotten that far away, even if some of them took the horses and wagons.

With that, he proceeded with his hunt.

**********************************************

As I said before, this is not harem, HOWEVER, if you want this new girl to develop a relationship with Kyoshi and be the LI rather than Yui then I can do that.

Ngl I did not write Yui how I originally planned and I can't rly get them any type of bonding scenes since I completely fucked up his stay in the village during the Koga Village arc.

Originally I planned on him staying there a whole week so he could have some type of interest with her, but then I started making it more realistic and fucked it all up.

I can make this relationship work right, but it won't be all fluff I'm saying that now. There will be crazy tragedy and more from this point on.

But it's either one or the other tbh. If not enough people choose here, I'll just ask my discord and choose the opposite of what they choose😁

Also, I'm better now other than having to take pills and vitamins because of my low iron deficiency, but I should be back to uploading regularly.
