{third POV}

"Everyone into your places, the battle is almost here" Muzan declared, sending all the moon's to their different position in the infinity castle, waiting for the arrival of the hashira.

Currently everything was going to plan. Tanjiro hadn't got back yet, which is exactly what Muzan wanted. He planned for Tanjiro to be back after the fight is over; so the risk of Tanjiro slipping his hold wasn't a threat.

"Alright Nakime, do you remember where everyone goes?" Kibutsuji assured, talking telepathically to the demon.

"The water and sound pillar with Akaza. Stone and wind with Kokushibo. Mist with Gyokko. Leave Hantengu to the flame and Serpent. Then Daki and Gyuutarou to the love and any other remaining to Kaigaku. Got that?"

Nakime nodded her head in affirmation "yes master" she replied, making a few more adjustments to the infinity castle and making Muzan appear in the demon slayer corps.

The night was dark, snow falling on the peaceful grounds as Ubuyashiki's two older daughters played silently in the garden, throwing a ball back and forth sinisterly.

The small flakes of snow fell around Kibutsuji gracefully, perching themselves on his hat before they slowly melted away into the fabric. His vibrant plum red eyes shon with a deep bloodlust, eyeing the bed ridden man with his wife next to him.

'Why do I feel so relaxed?' He thought, narrowing his eyes in repulsion.

'This strange feeling of nostalgia feels disgusting'

Ubuyashiki smiled at his presence, he could sense him from a mile away. And he had a plan.

"Kibutsuji Muzan. It's nice to have finally met you" the master spoke lowly, his wife dabbing a cloth on his head.

Muzan stared at the ill man "I must say you've done a good job a hiding this place, not good enough unfortunately"

Ubuyashiki laughed, his voice filtering out the tense air and replacing it with a strangely calm one "don't go thinking so high of yourself Kibutsuji, you're not the only person whom was waiting for this moment"

Muzan raised and eyebrow and walked closer to the man, roughly grabbing him by his collar.

The master simply smiled as Muzan rose his hand threateningly, his weak body handing limp in the demon King's hold "I'll extinguish your pitiful existence Ubuyashiki"

"I must say something before you do... your disgusting Kibutsuji. Tanjiro doesn't love you, and he never will. In fact, Tanjiro probably cringes in disgust every time you come near him, he hates you. Tanjiro Kamado will never be yours to claim-"

"SHUT UP! SHUT YOUR DISGUSTING MOUTH!" Muzan shouted enraged, his veins popping out as he gritted his teeth in anger.

All the while, the two daughters continued throwing their ball back and forth; humming a creepy tune as snow began to build up in the garden.

"Your stupid demon slayer Corps will be nothing soon, I'll kill each and every one of them and Tanjiro will live with me forever. We'll be perfect beings together. Don't talk such nonsense" Muzan growled, eyeing the smiling man.

Snow fell peacefully around the two, the atmosphere silent and melodic "Tanjiro Kamado is much to pure for a filthy being like you" Ubuyashiki countered, a scowl present on his normally neutral face.
