You slashed your blade through the vase of another fish demon "There! There's Kanamori!" Kotetsu yelled as he ran towards a shed that was at least a few meters away.
"Oh! Y/n-sama! Thank you! You cut it down in the blink of an eye!" Kanamori exclaimed "Kanamori!" Kotetsu cried out as he went to hug the male. You walked towards the two males "Young Kotetsu! I'm glad you're alright, in all honesty, I thought you had died already!" Kanamori said as he hugged the young male back.
"You're Kanamori?" You said "Oh! Right, Tokitou's new swordsmith. Do you have his sword prepared?!" You asked "Right! I was working over in that shed, there's a sword waiting for lord Tokitou in it, bring him his sword and then head to the village chief" Kanamori said as he began walking to the shed with you following behind him.
"Kay" you mumbled as you looked around at your surroundings, "That smell" you mumbled as you came to a sudden halt. You grabbed both Kotetsu and Kanamori by the back of their collars and pulled them back.
They had fallen back onto their bottoms 'oops' you thought, having them fall wasn't your plan. "There's a demon" you mumbled as you placed your hand on the hilt of your katana.
"Hyo! Very observant" a voice spoke out as a vase appeared from a bush a few seconds later a demon appeared from within in the vase "Well then! What're you hiding in that shed, what's so important? Hyo Hyo! Oh! You're that girl!! Nice to meet you, they call me Gyokko. Mind if I talk a little before I bring you back to my master?" Gyokko said.
"I'd like you to show you my creations of the night!" Gyokko said. Suddenly another vase appeared beside him and two mangled human beings appeared from it. "Here's the first one! I call this Death Throes of the smith!... I'm sure you recognize these two swordsmiths!" Gyokko exclaimed.
Your eyes widen it had been the two swordsmiths that tried luring you deep into the forest earlier. "They failed to bring you to me so I decided to turn them into art pieces! I guess you could say this art piece was created because of you!!" Gyokko exclaimed.
"Oh, right! I forgot to show you the best part!" The demon exclaimed, he brought his hand to the 'art piece' and twisted a stick that had been sticking out of the mushed up humans.
"Gwaaaah!"
"No no no!"
"It hurts!"
The swordsmen screamed and screeched in sheer pain, jolting their bodies as the demon continued to twist the stick with a smile of pleasure plastered onto his face
The scent of pain and blood filled your nose, for a second you became tense. Knowing no matter what you did you wouldn't be able to save those swordsmiths, it was too late for them.
'I can heal then but I guarantee I wouldn't be given the opportunity to do so and with the scent radiating off of him and how he appeared out of the blue, I'm assuming he can manipulate the pots however he wishes...' You thought as you looked at the "Art" and back to its creator 'And if I fight him off and heal them after our battle, they'll be dead. They'll die, either way, my main objections now are saving Kotetsu and the other swordsmith but most importantly myself' you thought.
"So, that settles it then" you snickered "Hmm?" The demon hummed, only to realize that you leapt at him a second later.
You leapt above him, turning around mid-air to face him as you whipped your blade at him, aiming for his neck.
Your blade was met with the dirt of the ground for he had disappeared 'Behind me' you thought as you felt his presence appear behind you. You landed on the ground and turned to face the demon.
He stood on top of the roof of the shed.
"Just wait! I have more to tell you about my creations!" Gyokko pleaded as his figure appeared from a pot that sat atop of the roof.
'He can travel between pots... If I limit the number of pots he has then he'll limited places to go to' you thought as you leapt at him once more, you whipped your blade at the pot. The demon disappeared as his pot shattered into crumbs.
"He's gone" you mumbled as you landed on the roof.
BTunk
You look over in the direction the noise came from and another pot had appeared 'Where do they keep coming from?' You thought.
"How dare you destroy my vase!!" The demon yelled as he appeared out of the new vase "That was a work of art! You uncultured swine!!" Gyokko yelled, he continued to yell insults at you but his voice began to fade as you got lost in your thoughts.
'If he keeps running, does it mean he can die if I cut his head off?' You thought.
"You're not special, right?" You asked, your comment caught the demon off guard, despite his odd features you could tell he was in a state of shock.
"I mean compared to the upper moon six, right..." You began to talk once more but was cut off "How dare you!? I am much more defined than those two kids that obtained the title of the upper moon!!" Gyokko yelled as a pot appeared on his palm.
Goldfish began to swim out of the pot "Goldfish?" You questioned as you watched a few fish swim out of the pot and float in the air.
The fish moved closer to you, they stopped facing your direction. Their cheeks began to grow round and suddenly needles shot out of their mouth.
"Shit!" You yelled as your eyes widened. You slid down onto the opposite side of the roof and managed to avoid the needles. You heard a scream. "Kotetsu" you muttered as you saw the two swordsmiths in the distance.
A fish was floating in front of them preparing to shoot needles at them.
Breath of The Blue Spider Lily: Swirling Blue
You leapt towards the two boys flipping through the air, you landed in front of them and began to swing your blade, making sphere like motions to defend off the needles.
For a moment the needles stopped "Get out of here, go hide! You're in the way!" You yelled out "Ahh, we're sorry" Kanamori mumbled out as he picked off Kotetsu and ran off "Y/n!!" Kotetsu cried out as he was carried away.
The fish were about to shoot out needles once again but before they could you swung your blade and cut them down.
"Hyo Hyo, covered in needles what a laughable sight" the demon snickered, you glared at the demon standing a few meters from him.
"So... Has the poison begun paralyzing your arms and legs? It really is humour you chose to save those worthless lives for the price of your own, to lose your life in such a worthless place. Pity" Gyokko muttered.
'Poison?' You thought.
"Poison doesn't take effect on me!" You yelled as you lunged at the demon "You're really pissing me off!"
Breath of The Blue Spider Lily Third Petal: Crimson Lilith Wheel
You leapt off the ground, closing in on the demon from above you began spinning your body along with your blade just as you were about to strike the demon's head. A pot appeared in his hand the pot contained wave-like paintings on its side.
Gyokko faced the pot towards you and with the slightest motion of his hand, water came out and engulfed you capturing you in a sphere prison made of water.

I've done some analyzing of this fanfic and I've come to the conclusion that the last few chapters were very cringe.
