Mitsuri and Senjurou were trapped. The aliens were already surrounded them.
"There's no way you can escape now!" Vozurek said.
"Aniue! Where are you!? Help!" Senjurou cried.
"Hahahahahaha! No one is going to help you, kid!" Mordrezan cackled. "Now hand over that kid to us!"
"No way! Over my dead body first!" Mitsuri death glared at them.
"Alright, woman. I'll make you regret it!" Mordrezan taunted. "Now let's see how far your pitiful breathing style can stand against my freeze gun!"
Mitsuri's eyes widened. Did Mordrezan just say... breathing style?
Mitsuri remembered everything about her past life. How she joined the Demon Slayer Corps, her journey in battling the demons, and more. She died, and was reborn again. Despite the demons had completely extinct, she still practicing her breathing form in secret, and so does the others, albeit in a very different way from their previous lives.
And Mitsuri just encountered an alien who can read the minds and memories of other persons. That's why Mordrezan mentioned it.
Aliens and demons are two different entities. Demons killed and ate humans, while the aliens wants to enslave the humanity. Demons tend to use Blood Demon Art, while aliens relied heavily on their very high-advanced technology. But there's one similarity Mitsuri could find on them. They despised humanity, regardless of their ambitions.
"Hey, what's going on in here?"
Soon, a group of four drunk men were approaching Mitsuri, Senjurou and the evil aliens from a nearby street. The drunkards were completely unaware of what's going on right now.
"It's them again" Mitsuri sighed in frustration as she recognized all of them. Those drunkards are a group of the same persons who always causing ruckus in the Kanzaki family's restaurant.
"You know them, Mitsuri-chan?" Senjurou asked.
"Yes. They always come to Kanzaki-san's restaurant just to disturb other customers" Mitsuri answered.
Mitsuri still remembered when one of them took a bowl of ramen from her table and threw it on the floor to make fun of her eating habits. The four men almost involved in a fight against Obanai (plus the other male teachers) after that, only for the school janitor Sakonji Urokodaki, the workshop owner Hotaru Haganezuka and a Russian-born electrician named Valentin Kospinov to intervened in the scene.
"Are you guys some sorts of cosplayers?" the first man asked.
"What cosplayer!? We're aliens, you mindless brains!" Mordrezan replied angrily.
"Aliens? Hahahahahaha!" the second man laughed in disbelief.
"I must admit that you guys are so funny" the third man said.
"Look, Mitsuri-chan is here too! She even bring along her younger brother with her" the fourth man tried to wrap his arm around Mitsuri's neck.
"Get away from me!" Mitsuri furiously shoved the fourth man away.
"Bro, I think you need to modify your costume, it's ugly" the first man commented.
"Who are you to call me ugly? Your body even smell like a garbage dump!" Mordrezan insulted.
"Garbage dump, you said!?" the first man was upset. "Your face is much worse than the ugliest creature in Earth!"
"I'll cut your tongue, human!" Mordrezan threatened.
"Do it if you dare!" the first man dared.
The first man almost punched the alien, yet Mordrezan swiftly dodged it before grabbed the drunkard and tossed him against the wall, knocked him out. The second man pulled a knife from his jacket, prepared to attack yet Bithus pulled out his tongue before swiftly wrapped it around his neck and lifted him from the ground, choking him.
"Can't...breath..." the second man struggled to break free.
"Weaklings like you don't deserve to breath!" Bithus mocked.
"Forgive...me..." the second man begged.
"Let's see if you're worthy enough to escape Tartarus!"
the third man tried to fight Vozurek, but he lifted an empty garbage bin and struck and bashed him over the head.
"Now take this!" Vozurek violently stepped on the third man's belly numerous times.
"Aaaaaaaargh!" the third man cried in pain.
Meanwhile, the fourth man was upset when Mitsuri shoved him on the ground.
"Hey you bratty girl, I don't like it when someone tries to play rough with me" the fourth man growled.
"I don't have time to play with you, you barnacle!" Mitsuri yelled.
"Then the only thing i can do to teach a bad girl is this!" the fourth man tried to hit Mitsuri with a bottle.
Mitsuri dodged the fourth man's attack before retaliated with a kick. The fourth man collapsed on the ground, and Mitsuri took the opportunity to grab Senjurou's hand.
"Senjurou-kun, let's go!" Mitsuri quickly pulled Senjurou's hand as they ran away from there, leaving the drunkards to the mercy of Zargoror's henchmen.
"Damn you!" the fourth man quickly raised from the ground. Unfortunately for him...
Mordrezan shoot him with his freeze gun. The fourth man was completely freezed. Senjurou briefly glanced at him one last time, and his eyes widened in shock.
"Pathetic Earthlings" Mordrezan scoffed.
"Should we left them here and chase the kids?" Bithus suggested.
"No need, those dead brains are suitable enough for our experiments" Mordrezan said. "Now let's bring them back to our spaceship"
"Hey, what about this guy?" Vozurek pointed his thumb finger towards the frozen drunkard.
"Just left him here" Mordrezan said again.
...
"Aniue! Mom! Dad!" Senjurou cried as he embraced a hug from Kyoujurou and their parents. Mitsuri just stared at them with a smile.
Mitsuri and Senjurou has reached the Rengoku residence safely. The aliens were probably busy dealing with those drunkards right now.
"I'm glad you're fine" Kyoujurou smiled in relief.
"Thank you for helping Senjurou, Mitsuri-chan" Ruka thanked the braided girl.
"No problem, Rengoku-san" Mitsuri replied.
"You're so kind, Mitsuri-chan" Kyoujurou chuckled.
"Did anything happened to both of you?" Shinjurou asked worrily.
"Oh...we just meet a group of bad aliens" Mitsuri answered.
"Bad aliens!?" The Rengokus except Senjurou were shocked in disbelief.
"Yes, and they want to kidnap me" Senjurou shivered in fear.
"Oh no" Ruka's face was unhappy.
"Otou-san, you have the number of Black Narcissus, right?" Kyoujurou asked his father in confirmation.
"Yes" Shinjurou nodded.
"Mom, I'm scared" Senjurou almost cried.
"Don't worry, son. You're safe now" Ruka assured. She patted her youngest son to calm him down.
"You need to call them now!" Kyoujurou said.
"Okay!" Shinjurou quickly pulled out his phone number.
"Oh, I think I need to go home now" Mitsuri said. "My family would be worried about me if i stayed longer outside"
"It's okay for you to go home alone?" Kyoujurou asked out of concern. "Those aliens might still roaming in the outside there"
"Don't worry, Rengoku-san! i'll be fine" Mitsuri assured.
"No, no, no, I'll call Iguro to send you home!" Kyoujurou said as he was concerned about her safety.
...
Aside from typical pointed ears like most of Counter-Earth aliens, his antennas are resembling tail of a rat, wriggling like an earthworm. His skin is pale white with a lot of cracks especially his face, his hair is black and messy and his tentacles are barbed and dark red in color with a long black thorn as tips.
His name is Periborix. He was a former corrupt warden of a maximum security prison from a northern country in Counter-Earth. A ruthless person, he loves to torment the inmates by using countless horrible methods and was stripped from his position for his crimes.
Periborix was sent by Zargoror to hunt Demaclos. He was currently seen on the rooftop of a building somewhere in Kimetsu Town, dealing with the only remaining minion robot of the rogue professor. The rest of the robots had already crushed by him as the broken parts were scattered across the rooftop.
"Now tell me, you damn machine, where's Demaclos?" Periborix asked with threatening manner as he held the damaged robot with his tentacles.
"I...won't...tell...you..." the robot refused.
"You won't tell me even if I'll crush you to pieces?" Periborix faked his smile.
"I'm...loyal...to...him..." the robot said weakly.
"Ah, a loyal underling, I see"
Periborix then dragged the robot towards the end of the rooftop.
"If you refuse to tell me, then I'm fine about it. But you must say goodbye to your master then!" Periborix mocked as he threw the robot off from the building.
Meanwhile, Kyougo Shinazugawa, the father of Sanemi and Genya who's also a police officer just exited a convenience store as he walked towards the police car. Unfortunately, the robot suddenly crashed on the top of the car, much to his own shock.
"What the!? A...robot!?"
Kyougo quickly glanced upside. But there wasn't any person at the edge of the rooftop. Periborix probably had successfully fled away from there.
"Shinazugawa-san!"
Soon, he was approached by a fellow young police officer, Masachika Kumeno who's Sanemi's close friend since kindergarten.
"What happened?" Masachika asked with confused manner.
"Kumeno-kun, we got a strange problem here" Sanemi's father said.
And back in the street Mitsuri and Senjurou encountered the evil aliens, Enmu was walking alone in the street, carrying his camera along as he was heading home from the train station. His eyes widened when he saw the frozen man on the street, and he don't know why.
"Wow, what's this?" Enmu was intrigued as he walked closer to the frozen man. "How did this man got freezed in here? I need to take a picture of this!"
Enmu then took the picture of the frozen man before posted it in the social media. The fourth man has become famous because of this incident.
