Ch-3 - Uppermoon 2, Saving kanae

.

.

.

We were currently in a village right now, We were asking information about who first dissappear and where they dissappear

"Did you find anything useful" Kanae asked me

"No, Not it's just when the demon arrives and when or where they dissappear" I said looking at him

"I see this would take longer than expected" Said kanae with disdain in his eyes looking at it I patted his back causing him to flinch

"Don't worry we will find that demon sooner or later" I said causing him to have a smile at his face, Seeing this I also smiled while we keep walking

Suddenly we sense a demon

"He's here" I said to thich she nodded

We ran at a fast speed at the direction

When we arrive what I saw was a man with yellow hair with a red hat, Red clothes holding a consciousness girl, Looking at his rainbow eyes with some marking at it I said

"Uppermoon 2" I said with a disbelief to think I would saw an Uppermoon 2 in a mission, Looking at kanae he is also in a nervous situation

"Tsk, [Sand breathing:2nd form, Sand spike" I said while under the feet of douma a spike like sand came out causing him to back out throwing the girl

"Kanae, Take the girl to a safe place I will keep fighting him" I said while looking at kanae who is in shock

"Are you serious he is an Uppermoon 2"Said kanae but I just ignored him

" Please, We don't have time" I said

"Tsk... Please be safe ill be back" Said kanae while dragging the girl to a safe place

"Yeah" I said as I waved at him

"Are you done?" Said douma while getting in a fighting stance

I looked at him again "Yeah, [Sand breathing:5th form, Sand viper" The sand in my sword sorround me forming a shape like a snake viper I lunched at him with a fast speed at his neck

He flinched and back of

"[Blood demon art:Lotus Vine]" As he said that several lotus came out with a freezing temperature

"[Sand Breathing:4th form, Sand Gale]" Its a skill similar to dead calm but was 1x better, Sand air started doing around me my perception, Strength, Speed all increase causing me to slice all the lotus while protecting me

"Tsk how troublesome" Said douma wth an angry tone & expression "[Blood Demon Art:Frozen Lotus]" Said douma as an attack with a cold temperature slashed its way directly through nana

"[Sand Breathing:First form, Flowing sand slash]" I said as I draws my blade blocking his attack but didn't go unscathed my lower abdomen gets slashed by his attack causing it to freeze

'So cold, It's fucking cold' I said while holding my abdomen, He also back out cause of my attack

"[Sand Breathing:3 form, Sand crater]" Below his feet form a crater which broke out his defence I quickly used

"[Sand Breathing:7th form, Instant slash]" I instantly appeared right in front of him and slashed right through his neck when I was about to hit him he instantly use

"[Blood Demon Art:Water lily bodhisattva]" He said forming a massive bodhisattva causing his defence to rise while my blade was freezing

"[Blood Demon Art:Crystalline Divine Child] [Blood Demon Art:Wintry icicles]" Said douma creating clones of himself with the form of an ice kid, Having the same profiency as him and summoning an icicles with extreme cold temperature

"Tsk, [Sand Breathing:10th Form, Sand bloom]" After that my physical and speed dramatically increase by 2x

"[Sand Breathing:6th form, hundred Chain of abyss]" A chain instantly appeared causing fouma to get trapped within it and couldn't move

'I can keep this up for 10 second'

" [Sand Breathing:9th form, 3 Crescent sand slash]" I swung my sword causing the sand to form into 3 crescent shape slash running towards him seeing this douma uses his '[Blood Demon Art:Water Lily bodhisattva]' He again uses his defence making only a small slash at his body hut instantly regenerated

But the sun was already rising, which got douma terrified

"Tsk, The next time we meet I will slowly torture you" said douma angrily

"I will make sure you won't get away [Sand Breathing:6th form, Hundred Chain of abyss]"

Hundred chains appeared right through douma when he was so close to him, but douma uses '[Blood Demon Art:Lotus vine]

This caught nana off guard making him have several cuts, Bleeding through and making douma escape his sand bloom also run out causing him to have muscle pain, Making him unconscious

Kanae Pov.

I arrive at the village 3 hours after my speeding a little slower to make the Girl breathe a little more air

"No, Please be safe please I hope I'm not to late" I kept jumping around the trees at a fast speed I arrive about 1 hour the sun is already rising up so I was relieve but

I do have a bad feeling

As I walked to their location I was also a little surprised by their battle everywhere was freezing while some cuts and crater

As I was walking I finally saw a figure I was relieve when she is alive but why is she kneeling

As I slowly got a better look at her I was quite shocked by what I see, His lower abdomen was cut freshly but it is not that deep and no bleeding thanks to the ice that was still freezing, He also was bleeding heavily and his muscle seems a bit destroyed and a blood from his mask, I'm sure that's from his mouth

I quickly rushed over him, While holding back my tears I quickly grabbed him on my back and headed towards the demon slayer association

Meanwhile

At the demon slayer association

"Caw, caw, Nana Momoji has finished the mission, With him being fatally injured since She faced against Uppermoon 2 douma" Said Haki while flying at the hands of kagaya

"Sigh, I'm sorry my child I'm really thankful that you could still return, Facing against Uppermoon 2" Said Kagaya while clenching his palm

And when the other hashira hot the news about him facing against Uppermoon 2 they were quite shocked for him to Survive, While giyuu and sabito were relief that he somehow survive
