Epilogue: Kohaku and Mizuna
Kohaku followed the carriage into the next village, this princess was stunning. Normally he would ignore any other girl that wasn't Rin, but this girl was different. Her light brown hair as long, her skin flawless and pale like the moon and her eyes were such a dark brown color it melted his heart. When they arrived the princess was helped down by her guards, she's so tiny, Kohaku thought and was shocked by her stature, but the clothing she wore wasn't of a princess, but of a simple country girl like everyone else. "Good people I am princess Mizuna of the neighboring land. I've heard of your struggle and my men and I are here to help. I've brought food and silk for all to have." The people gasped and were in awe. No nobleman let alone noble woman has ever come to their village, but they welcome her gifts. She along with her guards began to unpack and give enough for the people. Kohaku watched from above a roof, keeping guard of her and watching out for demons. Mizuna smiled and happily gave what the villagers needed, her eyes kept meeting Kohaku's and blush would come back to her cheeks. She had never met anyone so stunning as well.
Kohaku smiled every time they made eye contact, but the smile soon turned to a frown when Kohaku could sense a demon coming. He stood and began running toward that direction, he found two spider underlings lurking about, hunger was written all over their faces. Kohaku threw his sickle and slayed them both. He stood there and watch out for others, only to hear the screams of villagers. Kohaku gasped and ran, it was only one underling roaming inside the village, trying to catch any human it could.
The guards did a good job at making sure none of the villagers were taken, Mizuna hurried and led the villagers to saftey. Kohaku threw the chain of his sickle and flipped the underling,"Kill it now! Aim for the throat and heart!" before they could the underling began to spew its venom outward. This made Kohaku lose his grip and everyone fall back. The spider got back on its feet and ran toward the hiding villagers, Mizuna stood at the doorway with a spear, she trembled but she'd rather protect then die like a coward. The guards yelled and ran toward the spider, worried about their princess. Kohaku leaped from roof top to roof top and managed to stand in front of Mizuna in time. The spider began to spew its venom at them but Kohaku grabbed the princess and jumped, the venom landed on the door.
Kohaku placed the princess of the roof,"Stay here." He told her and jumped down, he threw his sickle to blind it then pulled out his sword and stabbed it in the heart. The underling let out one last roar and fell dead. The guards were shocked at Kohaku's strength but began to cheer and the princess smiled,"Kohaku that was amazing!" Kohaku looked up at the princess, "Thank you my lady, now.." He spread his arms wide open,"Now jump."
Mizuna trembled,"But im afraid of hights." Kohaku laughed,"You stood up against a spider demon but you wont jump off a roof? Trust me your highness, I'll catch you." Mizuna blushed, she let out a sigh and jumped down. Kohaku caught her and held her close in his arms,"There," He set her down on her feet still holding her, "I wont let you fall." The princess looked up at him and blushed she nodded she knew she could trust him.
Soon after the village was safe, Mizuna and her guards traveled back but the head guard insisted that Kohaku came along, so he did. When they arrived back to Mizuna's home the head guard sent Kohaku to the head maid and got him cleaned up. She and other women scrubbed Kohaku clean from head to toe, even with Kohaku's embarrassed face and protest to them. The women got him dressed and set to the living room, where there was a banquet awaiting for them. Kohaku blushed as he saw the princess there seated beside him, dressed in her beautiful princess kimono.
The lord of the land looked at Kohaku,"So you are the demon slayer who saved my daughter are you?" Kohaku nodded, the lord smiled,"My daughter has always had the kindest heart and I want to do everything in my power to make sure she is happy. She's taken a liking to you you know." Mizuna blushed,"Father!" She was so embarrassed by her him. Her father laughed,"My my forgive me daughter. Its the sake, but my mind was made up about this before i drank." Kohaku and Mizune blinked, about what did he decide? The lord smiled,"Kohaku I would like you to become my daughter's husband. Her safety means everything to me. All the other lords would rather give up the lives of their men to protect her. You, however, you are a strong demon slayer and you can protect her far greater. What do you say Kohaku?"
Kohaku blushed down at Mizuna, she looked up at him blushing as well. Kohaku smiled at her then at the lord,"I will, but I would like to get to know her before we are officially man and wife." The lord shouted with glee,"Of course my boy!" Kohaku held Mizuna's hand and looked into her eyes deeply,"I promise to get to know you and protect you, but will you personally have me Mizuna? I mean we just met." Mizuna smiled and responded with,"I know we did, but Im willing to get to know you. Till death do us part." She giggled the last part jokingly. Kohaku smiled and nodded.
