Tanjiro's POV
My name is Kamado Tanjiro, once upon a snowy day...my family was taken by a demon king named...
"Kibutsuji Muzan is the name of the creator of demons." Is what Urokodaki-san had shared with me with assurance. "There is no doubt, he is for sure the one who killed your family since your little sister has become a demon. Those incidents only happens if he is the one who attacks or visits a certain place."
I repeated the devil's name in attempt to memorize it as my target and yet... "Kibutsuji...Muzan..."
I wonder why...
'Why does it sounds familiar?'
Only for my headache to attack. "Ouch!" Pressing my head by soft pressure from my beaten up palms, I can smell the worried Urokodaki-san despite the tengu mask that is hiding his facial expression.
"What's wrong Tanjiro?" I tried to brush it off, since I had been in his care for almost 2 years.
"N-nothing.. just tired. The final exam was tiring hehe." Giving him my best smile despite the fatigue am feeling, Urokodaki-san acted like our second father as he gently scolded me.
"Don't pretend. Let me guess is that your usual headaches?" I actually did not told him regarding my condition, it is just of course time to time he would caught me curling in pain in middle of our training sessions and sometimes a simple meal time. I ended up interrupting those peace by hurting like this.
"Y-yes." There was no need to lie so I admitted. Slumping my shoulder's as I felt rather pathetic, Urokodaki-san patted my sad shoulder's and suggested me the most obvious solution.
"Maybe I should call a doctor. That could be an illness...hopefully not, since you are just about to start your journey." However I do not want to be a burden further than what we had been free loading here. After all the doctor already went to check on Nezuko the other day.
So I declined.
"Worry not Urokodaki-san, am fine. This headache is in our family genes. My father, my grandfather...my great fore fathers...all of them get's these weird headaches."
I told him with a pleasant smile hoping he would believe me. Watching Urokodaki scratches his head and sighed. "That surely is strange. But as long us its not anything life threatening...very well then, just take a rest."
Both of us decided to call it a day.
"Goodnight!" I said it first, I can imagine Urokodaki-san had a small smile in his lips even with masks. "Goodnight as well..."
With that I went to the room where Nezuko is still asleep.
Sliding the door shut and approaching the lamp so that I can blow it off.
"Muzan...huh." narrowing my eyes as I glared at the small fire that provides a dim lighting at this room.
'...Why is that when I utter his name I felt something else other than this coiling hate I has for him?'
I felt so much sorrow that I tried to focus my vision to my sleeping little sister Nezuko.
"Hey, Nezuko...I feel so bitter..."
Blowing off the candle, I went to sleep beside Nezuko and comforted myself by hugging her to feel her body that she is still a human for me.
"Please tell me to do my best...Nezuko..."
'Or else I think these headaches will mess me deeply.'
...
Anyone's POV
.
.
.
.
Tanjiro saw another distant dream.
Kring...))
'This place is...?'
Inside a spacious old Japanese castle it seems. Previously Tanjiro can only see of the person's appearance to be in red robe for ancient priest, with red bandanna without a face.
(("Ah~ you are awake!"))
But now he can see this person's face he had same color of eyes,same shape of nose as him.
As if it was a mirror.
Horrifying even his voice.
(("Good morning~!"))
'He passed before me, the person who looked exactly like me...except he had longer ponytail and doesn't seem to have any scar at his forehead. Behind me there was a tall man in white kimono but faceless.'
The happy red headed boy that seems to be a bit older than he was...he was cheerful and his voice is literally sounded like Tanjiro whenever he needed to be formal.
(("Hehe, come let us see the beautiful weather outside! Mu...sama!"))
Kring...))
The dream ended, opening his eyes and slowly got up to out of bed.
"Mu...sama...?"
Hearing the birds chirp,Tanjiro massage his face to compose himself. 'What a weird name...' Seeing the morning dew, he know it is time to wear his demon slayer uniform.
"Goodbye Urokodaki-san! Tell Sabito and Makomo my thanks!"
After that Nezuko and Tanjiro left Mount Sagiri.
"Yaaaah! Mizu no kokyuu!"
'Together with my little sister, we fought the demon that lurks to eat young women. So far my headache did not attack, which is why the battle was finished without complications. If there is something I hated is that the swamp demon had clawed Nezuko's forehead, thankfully Nezuko is not human at the moment...it healed quickly.'
The reporting crow quickly ordered Tanjiro to go in Asakuza Tokyo to hunt another demon.
'I wouldn't even have thought that so quickly...So quickly that man...'
The demon king will crosses path with him in no time.
*Badump...!*
Dramatically, Tanjiro's body moved to stood like an alarm clock.
*SHATTERS!*
Ignoring the fact the food was wasted, nothing but intense alert to kill is coiling around him and his nose.
'Why?! Why does this scent is around here!?'
Tanjiro was trembling with anger that he left Nezuko sleeping at the noodle bench. "This...smell...that killed my family...! Where is it...?!"
Tanjiro decided to chase the scent.
'It's near...! It is very near!'
In the huge crowd, like a cinematic climax point his hand was able to grab one specific person. He had a white hat and black clothes that Tanjiro has no idea what it is called but indeed it looks wealthy. 'It's him giving off the scent...!' Forcing him to turn around and face him, Tanjiro made his samurai stance to draw the blade and plan to cut him.
"Hn?"
'Then my world stopped.'
"Papa?"
((Gasps))
A young girl was in the devil's arms and called him... 'papa..?!' The child looks innocent as well how she smell.
'I-It can't be...' then a woman behind him seems to be the mother, smells also of a human being. 'Noway.'
"Tsukahiro-san do you know this boy?"
'Is this some kind of a sick joke?!' Tanjiro's thoughts, 'What the hell? This bastard has a human family?! How...how dare he when he took mine!?' He covered his mouth unable to bare the sight of a happy family when he was a demon!
Tanjiro kept shaking as he hear him speak so softly as if he was really a father of someone. Unaware how Muzan seized his attention to his hanafuda earrings that shines in his blue scarf rolled around his head and the fact that Muzan knows what a demon slayer uniform looks like.
Muzan answered without any emotion.
"Not quite. But I did met him before..." Tanjiro's eyes flickered with surprise. 'What? He didn't deny me? What is he planning?' Before he can even speak back, Kibutsuji Muzan gently passed the girl to her mother's arms with a light hearten command.
"My apologies Rei-san I need to talk to this kid. You and Tsuki-chan can go back to the mansion." The woman and Tanjiro were both confuse. "Tsukahiro-san?" Instead he placed a smooth smile with a smoothest lie ever. "It is a bit important. Some small Business."
'A professional liar!'
"Hey boya~" he was smiling at him in front of his so called family, before he opened his eyes with a threat and looked into Tanjiro's. "If you want to talk, we can talk somewhere private." He shot a short smile to his wife with the pushing request. "Please wait for me at home Rei-san..." seeing how his wife reacted so concerned, Tanjiro felt so sick.
"Are you sure...?" Tanjiro can see he was trying to dismiss them away for their battle later so he just patiently kept his mouth shut as he watch him trick the humans.
"Do not worry, I will return tomorrow. Let me take you to the car."
Following them all the way to the car. The woman and child went inside and the car then the door was closed by Muzan.
"Come back early papa!" The cute girl waved with excitement, so tenderly Muzan responded like an expert to shut a kid off. "Be a good girl~" Finally they left.
...
Tanjiro's POV
Since were left alone, I called him with a dark voice. "Hey you." Only for him to turn slowly for me and pointed at the dark alley behind us. He proposed.
"I know you are very blood thirsty right now...how about you follow me where nobody can see us hm~?"
Accepting the proposal since I do not wish to get someone else involved, I agreed. "Fine by me!"
Stomping my feet and followed him, we had reach the end of the dark alley. Completely nobody else but us.
Kibutsuji Muzan seems to be calm about the situation with me. Even though he has not say anything rude yet, I felt his mood that he thinks lowly of me.
'Is he mocking demon slayers? I will make him regret...!' Seeing him without a smile is truly a color I can picture, he asked me.
"What is your name~?"
Rage, vein pops appeared in my face that I did not even try to hide the fact that am gonna reveal my sword to slay him.
"I will freaking tell you indeed! You better not forget it for I will carve it to you! My name is Kamado Tanjiro! I will never forgive you! I will kill you!"
I heard him mumble some words, "How long will you keep reviving till you are satisfied? Tanjirou?" However I only caught my surname with clear hearing. 'H-huh? He pronounced it differently?' Getting off guard. "Uwah!"
It was so fast, the moment I drew my blade a single hand grabbed my throat and pinned me at the wall. "Ack!"
His eyes were menacing enough to put pressure on the death flag position that am in...
CLANG!
Weaponless.
'My sword..!' To think I ended up dropping it due to the lack of oxygen and pain in my neck, Kibutsuji Muzan was a very cold man as he whispered under his breath.
"How foolish of you to even think that we are on the same level of strength. Learn were you belong you peasant monkey." I cannot help but get agitated by his ruthless statement, So I bothered to used my hands and fingers to shake off his one arm in attempt to let him release me. "M-Mu...zan...! Bas..tard!" I rasped and clawed my fingers to his looking expensive sleeves.
"Grrr..!"
Muzan simply followed my hopeless movements with his cat plum iris observing eyes before he smirked.
"Interesting~ you are different from the last."
"Huh?"
Out of nowhere I can smell him being in a good mood that he even let me go, I fell to the ground with choking gasps for air. "Hahh..!" Massaging my own neck that I thought will loose function to speak, I glared up to him and found him having an interesting devilish grinning.
"You said your name is Kamado Tanjiro isn't~?"
He crouched down to my level and lifted my chin. "I will make you atone for all of the sin he did to me. You are very unlucky that it was you who will experience torture." I raised my eyebrows in confusion while my other brain is planning to crawl my other free hand hoping to reach my Nichirin blade at the ground.
"Though I do applause your ability of being able to find me. How troublesome~"
"..." I do not even know how to response to that.
"Hm~? What is this? Are you not aware? Or has he not awoken yet inside you?" He chuckles. "Well~well, if you like let me show you the parts of your body that you did not know. After all, I know your body very well~ and am very curious how it looks like now. This is going to be nostalgic and entertaining..." I had enough of his weirdness, I gained the ability to talk even though my voice sounded soar.
"What the hell are you even talking about!? Do you not remember you killed a nice family in the Kumotori mountains?!" I grit my teeth.
"You...you even ate some of their organs and you just forgot it just like that?! Unforgivable...!" His eyes rolled yet he did acknowledge my purpose of chasing him.
"I see~ revenge." Seeing him cup his own chin to think out loud how he had some fuzzy memories.
"I will admit... I do not quite remember,but if you are referring to the house of charcoal seller..." he smiled at me,"Yes I did visit, and I think that was around 2 years ago~" then he lowered his voice and his eyes were suddenly scary. "Do you expect me to count every single meal I eat?"
He roughly squish my jaws. "Ghh!"
His face had zoomed in to mine that I can smell him so clearly that he smells nice and at the same time I can smell that he isn't human.
"Like you,do you remember when is the last time you have a good meal~?" Still so angry in my guts, my head screamed.
'Is he saying my family was delicious?! This monster!'
But I was not in position to escape yet his grip to my face.
Our noses almost can touch if he zooms any further to mine, his breath sending shivers to me as he kept speaking. "I mean~ I do not get it. What's so bad about killing your family? Aren't you thankful enough that you are at least alive~? That you had been spared from my food chain? Hm~?" I know answering back will cause me a lost but I ended up shouting at him.
"YOU BASTARD! MY FAMILY...WE HUMANS ARE NOT FOOD!"
Then he spoke of my fear.
"~You say so even though your sister is now a demon."
GONG!)))
'Wait,wait...Nezuko..that is right! I left Nezuko! H-he couldn't possibly...!'
My anger was replaced with fear, the fact that he knows Nezuko's condition...My body automatically became submissive. My tensed up muscle to struggle had slumped.
Muzan had a triumphant smirk at me and he even said it. "Good boy~ that's how you should act before me." He had let go of my jaw that I thought would break, only bruises was left.
Behaving at the ground,I refuses to look at him now...fearing he might ask where Nezuko and definitely I wouldn't risk my sister just for revenge!
"Now then~ I wonder what should I do to you~?"
He thought I had given up,of course not.
'Just wait for an opening! Grab the sword and slice off his neck!' For some reason his stare at me became intent that I looked up and met his eyes with interest.
"What is it?!" I growled.
Kibutsuji Muzan suddenly cup my cheeks,my scarf in my head fell off in process and then he-
"~I wonder how you taste..."
And kissed me.
'What is going on!?'
My mouth was invaded by a tongue and started feasting inside my mouth...! "Mmff..! Mff!" Pushing him with all my strength, the tongue went deeper in my throat and started licked me inside. "Mrfhff!" My body panicked. 'He's going to eat me...!' Dammit!
I let my guard down! I'm gonna die won't I...?!
My body moved away but he kept pinning himself to mine that my back felt the bricks behind. I'm totally cornered now! "Mmmhh..!" Tears in my eyes as it actually hurts how his tongue is exploring my organs.
~"Muzan-sama we have emergency."~
Then I heard a woman's voice, Muzan pulled away and sound's like a voice asking his secretary for schedules.
"Nakime, what is it? I'm busy at the moment." Looking carefully at this dark alley, there is a woman at the wall! 'A-another demon...?'
The woman had long black hair that you cannot see her face,she simply speak what she was questioned.
~"It's because a pillar killed one of the Lower Moons."~
Hearing that, Kibutsuji Muzan stood up and fix his clothes that has crumpled a bit when he and I had stayed a bit longer at the ground.
"Alright, Tell all the lower moons to meet up. I will be there soon."
~"Understood."~
Me, not realizing I was drooling, Muzan looks down at me with a satisfied sly smirk.
"Kamado Tanjiro~"
Actually bit afraid, I tried to use my mouth that had been abused earlier. "Mu...zan...?"
He was actually having fun!
"You are very lucky, I won't take you in full tonight. I will devour you slowly ~till you regret on ever chasing me just for your family's death." Then he walks away. I cannot believe how pathetic this has ended. Wiping my drool, I crawled and grab my sword. "No! Come back here you bastard! Were not done yet...!"
He simply wave his hand, "Take care of yourself, so that I can kill you~now excuse me." And disappeared in the darkness of the wall that seem to have a portal. "Dammit!"
I slam my fist at the ground, ignoring the pain that I punched it too hard. My hand throbs along with my head. 'What the hell! After kissing me like that he will just pretend that nothing even happend?! What the hell is that supposed to be...!' The portal is slowly closing,so I bother to shout a threat thinking he will hear it.
"Remember this Kibutsuji Muzan! Even in the depths of hell I will use my blade to take off your head!"
The portal closed and the wall returned to a normal one.
"Dammit...!"
Frustrated tears fell and I sob at the ground.
Not because I was almost eaten, it is because he clearly was not on my level to defeat.
"How frustrating!"
Only then someone's shadow hovered around me.
"Excuse..."
A woman's voice.
((Badump...!))
My nose alerts up.
Because..because this scent is... 'Hold it! This smell...A demon?!'
Turning to my back with my sword ready for battle. "Whose there!?" I roared.
"Pardon me..."
Only to find a very beautiful lady. She is a woman with long, dark brown hair, parted in the center and worn braided back into a large, low bun, which is held in place by a floral hairpin. She had large, gentle eyes that didn't possess pupils, only a haze of pale pink that fades to dark lavender the higher it goes, and notably red lips in contrast to her pale complexion.
"I know this is out of nowhere, but if you refer your demon sister as still human and the fact that you hated Kibutsuji Muzan this much. I can help you with that."
"What...?" Is all I can say at the moment, since behind her is also a demon. Behind her is a young boy with pale skin and bright lavender purple eyes. His short hair is neatly styled and vertically shaded from a dull green to black. The boy wears a button-up shirt under an all-white kimono and dark blue pants.
While the mysterious lady wore a dark purple kimono that was decorated by wavy pale purple tree branches and red flowers, with a cream-colored obi to secure it around her waist, as well as plain white socks and violet zori sandals.
"We can help you stay for a night." She said without a smile, more like she looks stressed.
Unable to decline such proposal, also...
'I can tell she isn't lying. This scent she harbors when she mention Muzan's name is same as mine...but I feel her much darker.'
Deciding to trust her even though I shouldn't. I ended up nodding without a word.
"Yushiro, guide him for me. I will be going back first."
"Understood Tamayo-sama."
Composing myself, I returned to Nezuko and eat 2 noodles to apologize to the seller of the wasted bowl earlier. I went to Tamayo and Yushiro's place. We had discussion about cure for Nezuko.
...
"Really? Me and Nezuko can stay for a night?" I was happy when I heard that Tamayo-san is willing to allow me to rest. Tamayo-san had a small smile before she had another worried face and commented her own opinion.
"Yes, make yourselves at home...more like, am surprise you do not fear to sleep with three demons." She tried to make a joke, but I was really thank so I smiled and told her what I think of them. "Like I said demons used to be humans. A demon like you who had a goal to revert them back to normal is not a demon at all...So thank you."
Tamayo-san's eyes widen when I said that. I thought she would cry since it felt like she was touched on what I said instead...she...
"Is it you...?"
She mumbles, but I didn't quite hear it right.
"What?"
I thought she would hide it, but Tamayo-san marched forward and stared at my face then to my earrings. "S-sorry," she was having some sweat-drops.
'What is troubling her?'
"Is...something the matter?"
Tamayo-san shakes her head and confessed. "Actually...during the time that I was still under Kibutsuji's curse. Time to time whenever he dreams...sometimes his dreams, or more like his memories get's accidentally transferred to me."
Tamayo-san corrected herself. "Ah no...all demons will see his memories. But low level demons cannot, since they do not have much of his blood."
Her expression darken as she explains to me. "The more blood we obtain from Kibutsuji...the closer we get to invade his private memories."
Tamayo-san intently stared at my eyes though. "I might be mistaken but...you look like that person."
Blinking, am very confused. "Who?" Tamayo-san thinks for a second then smiles. "Sorry...this is just something from the past, am not sure if it is related to why Nezuko-san was put in such situation." Eyeing Nezuko whose having a silent glare contest with Yushiro. "Long time ago there was a red haired man with hanafuda earrings whose close to Kibutsuji...but for some reason that person was like reincarnated and tried to kill him."
Tamayo smiled at the memory.
"When his blade struck Kibutsuji...I was freed from his curse." Then she looks back at me. "You look like him."
Even though Tamayo-san did not make a proper and elaborate explanation, why is that...
'Why do I think I know what 'past' is that...?'
Throb...))
"O-ohh.." I touch my head, Tamayo-san hurried to touch my shoulders.
"You okay?" Hearing a jealous and hissing Yushiro behind us...I shake off the dizziness of my head and excused myself. "I'm fine, hehe...err just some migraine! Hehe!"
Grabbing Nezuko's hands. "Alright now let us rest Nezuko!" Waving, "Goodnight now Tamayo-san! Thank you! You to Yushiro!"
Yushiro growls but I ignored him and went to the room of Nezuko and I to have time alone.
"Phew..." sitting at the futon, Nezuko happen to stared at me and she made a sound. "Mmh..."
Wondering what is up, "Yes Nezuko?" Only for Nezuko to grab my hand and continued to stare at my eye as if she is saying for me to stay with her.
So I smiled and hugs her. "Worry not, Oniichan won't go anywhere...we won't be ever seperated again...I promise."
Hugging my sister tight, the pain in my head had died down until I fell asleep.
The next morning, Nezuko went to her box and I said farawell with Tamayo-san and Yushiro with agreement that I will collect demon blood samples for Nezuko.
...
Anyone's POV
"Tamayo-sama is something the matter?" Yushiro pry to Tamayo's frowing face. Tamayo turns to face Yushiro and had a heavy sigh.
"Nothing,it is just that I finally remember now...'Tanjirou' a surname that no longer can be heard suddenly existed as a name...him...that boy Tanjiro, he..he is perhaps another reincarnation of Tanjirou Sumiko." Tamayo glared at the wall. "The real being that Muzan feared the most than Tsukiguki Yoriichi."
Not really following the topic, Yushiro politely asks. "Why? Who is this Tanjirou Sumiko exactly?"
Tamayo closes her eyes to think deeply in her memories. "According to Kibutsuji's memories...Sumiko-san is his lover."
Yushiro gawks.
...
...
Tanjiro and Nezuko made their way back to a field away from the city.
The sun sure is bright, but then Tanjiro was still angry by just thinking of last night's failure. He was grumpy. "Kibutsuji Muzan...that man is awful...!"
Though...something else did bothered him.
'He said something strange to me..He was talking to me but same time he was not actually referring to me?'
The voice echoed like a recording tape in his ears.
(("How long will you keep reviving till you are satisfied? Tanjirou? I will make you atone for all of the sin he did to me. You are very unlucky that it was you who will experience torture. Hm~? What is this? Are you not aware? Or has he not awoken yet inside you? Well~well, if you like let me show you the parts of your body that you did not know. After all, I know your body very well~ and am very curious how it looks like now. This is going to be nostalgic and entertaining..."))
'Also Tamayo-san mention something...like...this...?'
(("Long time ago there was a redhaired man with hanafuda earrings whose close to Kibutsuji...but for some reason that person was like reincarnated and tried to kill him."))
'She said I look like that person but...'
(("I might be mistaken but...you look like that person."))
Throb...))
Slightly Tanjiro's head and heart felt troubled.
"What was that about...?" Frowning at the ground. 'Could it be he knows my family more than I did...? What secret is that? Or is he just messing with me? And what did he meant inside me...is he referring to the soul of hanafuda...'
His thoughts were cut off when a scream destroyed his ears.
"GAAAAAAH!"
A very annoying scream from a blonde haired guy at the ground, desperate on hugging a girl who seems to be trying to escape.
"PLEASE MARRY ME!"
"WHO THE HELL SAID I WOULD?! LET ME GO! I DON'T EVEN KNOW YOU!"
"GAAHH! I DON'T WANT TO DIE A VIRGIN! DIDN'T YOU SAVED ME BECAUSE YOU WERE IN-LOVE!"
"WHAT ARE YOU BEING DELUSIONAL FOR!? LET GOOO!"
By the flow of conversation, Tanjiro thinks he should get involved. Ignoring his normal headaches, the girl looks like she is being harassed in his eyes.
'...also that uniform...!'
"ISN'T CLEAR SHE DOESN'T WANT TO MARRY YOU!?"
Force to pull him away, the girl was happy while the blonde male is angry at Tanjiro.
"Who do you think you are?!" Since he ask, Tanjiro did plan to introduce himself so he did. "My name is Kamado Tanjiro! And you are!?" Behind him Tanjiro saw the girl hushed him and made her way to sneak an escape.
Meanwhile...
"M-mine is A-Agatsuma Zenitsu...wait! You are changing the topic!" Zenitsu looks behind him and the girl is already gone. He swat Tanjiro's hands that had been restraining the tug of his uniform, he went more angry. "W-W-Why did you get in the way of my marriage!?" He sniffs his runny nose, But to Tanjiro...
"Marriage? That didn't look mutual."
Zenitsu clawed his own hair and starts to tantrum. "Shut up virgin!"
Getting a bit triggered, Tanjiro showed him his disgusted face for him.
"Excuse me?"
"WHY ARE YOU LOOKING AT ME LIKE I'M A BEING WHO SHOULDN'T BE BORN!?" Tanjiro didn't stop at that. He stared at him with pure disgust. Zenitsu ended up yelling a lot and starts crying again. "Gyaaa! I don't wanna die as a virgin either!"
"Eeehh..." Tanjiro's ear hurts from his loud voice."Huhuhu."
Tanjiro wanted Zenitsu to stop whining so he searched in his haori for some food. Thankfully there is one.
"That's enough, here Zenitsu."
"Eh?" The onigiri that he bought for himself, Tanjiro decided to share it with him, hoping it will make Zenitsu forgive him for interfering his idiotic dreams to force a woman to marry without being mutual at all. "You can have a share of my Onigiri." Suddenly Zenitsu's eyes turned heart shapes.
"Kyun!"
Then he grabbed Tanjiro's hands and cups them with a thankful smile.
"What a very gentle heartbeat from you Tanjirooo! What a saint!" And he jumps to hug Tanjiro. "Take responsibility and marry me instead~! Kiddin!" Worried he might disturb Nezuko whose inside the box, Tanjiro tried to push him away.
"D-don't hug me! Wait!"
However, it happend.
Throb...))
Badump!
A stronger throb than the faint ones from earlier. Tanjiro felt the sickness again.
"...Huh?"
Zenitsu repeated after him. "Huhh?" He stopped hugging him and stared at Tanjiro whose slowly grabbing now his head for support, Tanjiro'a vision is turning hazy as usual.
"...My head it.. hurts again..." closing his eyes thinking he can relax a bit, however he ended up fainting infront of Zenitsu whose now screaming.
"Tanjiro?!"
Thud...
The worried yell echoed but never the less...Tanjiro fell to the ground face first, thankfully the box remained closed.
"Tanjirooo!"
'Every time I sleep, every-time I lost consciousness...Always there is the sound of bells.'
(("~I finally found him...~"))
Kring...)))
A voice says that, but it sounded like him.
"Eh? Where am?"
Tanjiro found himself again on a memory that he has no interest. He was around like a waterfalls in a happy morning.
Spotting the person that always appear inside his dreams.
"It's him..."
Seeing the red headed priest talking to someone whose bathe in white glow of sunlight. Tanjiro is literally close to the two figure that seem to be having a conversation.
(("Mu...sama are you interested starting your own family perhaps~?"))
Just like a theater playing in his eyes but with broken lines, Tanjiro heard the voice of the other man for the first time.
(("If anyone is worthy I guess.")) The voice was smooth and handsome. For some reason Tanjiro heard this voice before!
'Eh? This...voice...?' when he was about to guess, the red head mirror of him stabs the fish.
STABS!
"Hahh! Yay! Got it!" Seeing his somewhat giggled, Tanjiro accidentally asks him.
"Who are you exactly that you keep appearing in my dreams? Are you perhaps..." Tanjiro had a feeling this is what his father referring.
The soul inside the hanafuda earrings.
To his surprise.
Kring...))
(("Ahh~ it is you. Hello.~ Finally I can talk to you because of your close contact to him. That is good."))
The figure responded to him, "...!" making Tanjiro stone stiff for this is the first time the said character in his dreams of mystery had looked at him in the eye.
He did had doubts that maybe another character appeared behind him that this person might be talking to...but there was nobody else but him.
"W-what...?" Creep out,Tanjiro took some measure to step back. However Tanjirou Sumiko was smiling at him and even bother to go near him.
(("Hey."))
"Uwaah!" Tanjiro screamed. He was freaked out, he never encounter such dream that the stranger would actually talk to him.
"Don't come near me! Why do you keep bothering me!?"
This is different when Sabito and Makomo had ghost up on him. 'Because I was not aware that time...! But this, this person he is...he is the ghost inside the earrings isn't he!?'
Sumiko heard his mind and laughs. (("Hahaha~! You got that right!")) Before he notice, Sumiko was in front of him so close.
Their nose almost can touch, Sumiko smirks at him. (("My name is Sumiko...Nice to meet you 'me'."))
"U-um..." Sumiko gently touch the strands of Tanjiro's hair to his ear then his hanafuda earrings.
Tanjiro gulps and had a terrible sweating due to fear.
"S-Sumiko...?"
Tanjirou Sumiko nods in a glee before he turned dark.
("I see...he kissed you. That devil...I won't forgive him for toying me again.")
When Tanjirou blink, the dream ended without an ending.
Tanjiro's POV
Re opening my eyes, am surprised I had no dreams or whatsoever.
Actually am not sure if I did dream?
Anyway...
Only the throbbing pain lingered in my whole body especially my head.
"...Zenitsu?"
I found ourselves beneath a tree and the sun is already fading.
'How long did I lost consciousness?!'
"Waah! Tanjiro!" Zenitsu cuddles to me and shakes me while he cries with runny nose.
"I thought you're dead! You fainted flat! We shouldn't have shared the onigiri! You must have been very hungry!"
Feeling bad that I made him worried, I smiled at him hoping he would calm down.
"N-not really this is my new normal...I guess." Scratching the back of my head to check any lump, thankfully none.
I check the box that has been at my side. Zenitsu seems to have removed the box from me so that my body can rest at the gentle grass. 'Nezuko must be asleep.'
"*sniffs*...What do you mean?" Zenitsu wipes off his runny nose and tears.
He seems to have gained composure, and by the looks of him...maybe it wont be bad to share a little about myself.
"You see, I have some ghost stuffs going on. You may not believe me but...am suffering from headaches from a distant soul." My earrings jangle as I made a movement to sit properly.
Zenitsu who had unreadable expression simply told me.
"I believe you. I mean your heart doesn't lie...I hear it. Also demons exist surely ghost too!"
Hearing that Zenitsu didn't doubt me, I wanted to end the conversation at that.
"Thank you Zenitsu."
"Hehehe..."
After this, Zenitsu and I were told by the reporting crow to defeat the demon who trapped people in his house. That is where we met Hashibira Inosuke.
"What are you doing?!" I yelled at him, the sight of Zenitsu beaten up face with blood and how he was protecting the box of Nezuko!
"Isn't obvious? I'm gonna slay the demon in that box...! This Hashibira Inosuke will become the strongest demon slayer by killing all of the demons! Gyahahah!"
Zenitsu sniffs and tried to speak even though he was trembling in pain.
"Tanjiro! I protected it! Because you said this is precious than your life...!"
My heart was touched.
"Zenitsu..."
"Shut your crap!" The person hiding in his boar mask kicks Zenitsu again in the face so violently.
"GUAH!"
Meeting Inosuke. was an additional headache to my hurting head.
"FIGHT ME!"
My blood boiled and attacked him.
"WILL YOU BEHAVE ALREADY!?"
Throb...))
Even though my head already hurts and am frankly exhausted with broken ribs, I ended up doing it.
"STOP IT!"
BONK!
Crack.
Head butting him.
"HIS SKULL CRACK?! TANJIRO? INOSUKE? HEEEY!"
Inosuke froze and collapsed.
We were told to rest at the Wisteria mansion for recovery.
.
.
.
.
.
.
Inosuke is peculiar one. However even though he was strange...he was quick on making me off guard when he asks.
"Hey you, does your head hurts a lot?"
"Eh?"
Still in wisteria mansion resting, Inosuke had his masks even though he really had a pretty face he refuses to show it less and less.
I was not planning to piss him off or to tease him, but I cannot help but ask back.
"Are you... worried about me?"
Inosuke, even with mask I can tell he had blushing cheeks.
"D-dumbass! I'm just checking how weak you are so that I can fight you!" He lifted his fist. "FIGHT ME!" I laughs.
"Pff...hahaha~"
"W-what is it?!"
I smiles to thank him. "I appreciate it."
I look at the night sky, while behind us Zenitsu is flirting with my sister...Nezuko is fine, she was listening to Zenitsu's conversation so I let it be. It can train Nezuko to understand other human being than I..is a huge help of comprehension.
Now I talked to Inosuke what I really feel right now without lies. "Inosuke...every time my head hurts, I remind myself that those things is not enough to defeat a real man." Remembering what Sabito taught me, what Makomo...Urokodaki-san and what that Demon Slayer spared our life for...
"I won't waste it."
The wind blows and Inosuke is visibly bored.
"Ah-huh...I do not get it, so am sleeping." He walks away.
I simply had a small smile and I thought of it dearly.
"Tomioka-san is his name if I recall right...?" Every time I close my eyes and chant his name...a mysterious field of blue flowers illuminated by the moonlight resurfaces in my sight. Strange as if I met him before than the snowy day.
"Whatever it is...probably another 'dreams' father meant." Shaking my head and slapping my cheeks. "Do not loose Tanjiro! Do your best!"
Such memories of past...I cannot let it eat me! For Nezuko! And to kill...him!
'Little bit I know that it was consuming me rapidly...'
Anyone's POV
'I actually don't know why I condemn him to death...all I know back then, I was just really jealous. Just pure rage of jealously. Even though he gave up so much...I was irrational at that time. Deep inside somehow I kinda regretted it and wonder how things would turn out if only...I was a bit more patient?'
Opening his eyes that is buried in the past memories a voice boomed in his ears.
"Muzan-sama? Did you have another nightmare about the breath of the sun user?" Mysterious, composed, grim, serious and yet somewhat honorable, Kokushibou is a serious person who loves to fight, and never plays around.
"Kokushibo..."
Formerly Tsukiguni Michikatsu, now named as Kokushibo. He is the most loyal enforcer of Muzan's Upper Moon system. Maybe because of his history relationship with his prince whose now his king in Heian period till Taisho.
His undying love for him still exist.
"Kokushibo, just because you are my number one Twelve Kizuki does not mean you can invade my private space." Growled by Muzan whose resting at the sofa with unbuttoned shirt. He was just done having a bloody meal it seems.
Casting his gaze at the floor there was a pool of blood and remains of body parts that were half eaten.
Kokushibo can tell Muzan is not on his appetite. Something surely have happend, when he focused on prying he found the reincarnation of Sumiko.
"Forgive me. However, it has been 900 decades. Isn't time for you to move on?"
Despite being a demon, Kokushibou relies more on his swordsmanship and Breath of the Moon techniques rather than using the supernatural Demon Blood Arts. Even so, deep down, he was a broken man who was feared of his own demise and was deeply jealous over Tanjirou Sumiko's survival even with his mark, and he will hunt him down and kill them because of such jealousy.
"Move on? How could I if he keeps getting reincarnated. The fact that I always kill anyone who bares his surname or who happens to be his relative...he keep on existing. I think killing him over and over is not the right option."
Muzan seems to be a cruel lord, however whenever it is Kokushibo he was a bit calm and at least had some tolerance when he runs his mouth.
He was like his advisor.
Tired Muzan, he allowed Kokushibo to keep on talking.
"Then how would you like to deal with the rest of his bloodline?"
Muzan's ears twitch interest and he made an evil smile.
"Simple~ I will torture them,play with them till they are drowned by despair and commit suicide. Or otherwise much better~turn them to demons and feast on them."
However it doesn't seem to be like that to Kokushibo.
After all...the memory of his encounter with Kamado Tanjiro had involved a kiss.
Kokushibo dared to cross the line out of curiosity and concern of such act.
"Could it be...You still have feelings for Sumiko do you Muzan-sama?"
Muzan quickly sent him a death glare, the infinity fortress shakes.
"Speak that name again I will destroy your cell."
Threatened indeed, Kokushibo quickly bowed his rudeness.
"My apologies."
Muzan whose temper went back in check,he clicked his tongue and rolled at the sofa. "Tsk,You know what? You are dismiss."
Without any protest, "Understood." Kokushibo left Muzan's quarters.
Leaving Muzan have deep thoughts as he stared at the ceiling of his room.
'Am still in love with him? Or am deeply scared...that...I will loose?'
But we all know Muzan is prideful.
He will keep denying that his urge to kiss Sumiko's reincarnation was not an act of scaring the boy to eat him. To taste him...instead...
Simply he missed how that person tasted.
'How his lips taste...'
Muzan surely miss it but doesn't want to admit.
'...It was warm.'
Sighing,Muzan left the sofa and shape shifts to his woman form.
"Time to delete any traces of me ever existing in Asakuza tokyo. I cannot afford for Ubuyashiki Kagaya to know where am."
Glaring at the floor. "To think he found me so easily like this...Is fate wanting to play fire again~?"
Muzan knew he should be careful and never play again with fire.
Unless if that fire is weak maybe he can blow him off.
.
.
.
.
.
Muzan had a dream actually after meeting Tanjiro. A dream where him and Sumiko are happy together before it turned into flames of destruction and betrayal.
On the other hand Kamado Tanjiro is on his way to Nagatumo Mountain.
Which will be the last that he can be part of the demon slayers.
'The closer I get to Kibutsuji Muzan happens in that incident...I made a mistake.'
