Kamado Tanjiro Vs Muzan Kibutsuji

Chapter 44 { Violation }

(Zenitsu POV)

When I woke up my whole body was wrapped with castes. I look around my surroundings and notice a group of people wearing the same uniform as me. What is with these guy. They are being real prompt after our huge scuffle. On top of that, wasn't this girl in the final round of the exam? She has the same hairstyle as the girl who wrapped us all up.

One of the guys talks to the girl, 'Do we take them to the butterfly estate as well?'

She answers, 'Yes, all injured people go there. I'll hunt down the nearby demons so deal with this at your leisure.' She immediately goes inside the forest. Some of the guys gather around Inosuke that was hanging on a tree with a confused expression, 'What with this guy...'

(Tanjiro's POV)

The girl says cheerfully in a bad way, 'Okay, Giyu-kun out of the way. You don't want to get hurt don't you?'

Giyu repiles to the girl, 'I am not hated and I'm not letting you get past me.'

She smiles and says, 'Ahhh, that... I'm sorry so you didn't realize you were hated. Pardon me for saying too much. You there, boy.'

I jolted a bit and reply, 'Yes...'

She continue saying, 'Boy, you're protecting a demon. It's dangerous so please get off her.'

I quickly reply in panic, 'N...! Well you are not wrong but... Uhh... This is mine little sister. Mine, that's why...'

She gives me a pity look, 'Well is that so. What a pity. Okay then, I will kill her with my sweet poison that won't leave her in pain...' while raising her blade.

Giyu quickly gets into a stance and order me, 'Can you move? Even if you can't, will yourself to move. Take your sister and run. I will hold her.'

I widen my eyes and nodded, 'Thank you very much Giyu!' I quickly carry Nezuko in a bridal style and concentrate all my blood flow through my legs. In a blink of an eye, I disappear.

The girl widens her eyes in surprise, 'Where did he go Giyu-kun? He just disappear.'

He replies, 'That kid is special. One day he might become one of the most powerful demon hunter. That is why I won't let you kill her sister' while raising his sword.

She asks, 'I never know you trusted that boy very much but isn't this a violation of demon hunters conduct?' He just stares at her blankly.

Tanjiro running through the forest...

I quickly carry Nezuko through the forest while grabbing my box. My whole body is hurting but I have to carry her to safety. Come Tanjiro, run faster! Come on... Come on... Why can't the demon hunters accept Nezuko! Suddenly I pick up a human girl scent above a tree. I quickly side step and avoid a katana coming down on me. I look at the girl and realize something. It was the same girl at the final exam.

She has large, gentle eyes of a pink-lilac color that are framed by thick eyelashes. She has thin black hair that she wears tied into a ponytail on the right side of her head, fastened by a pink and green butterfly ornament, also possessing a straight fringe and two chin-length strands that protrude from above each of her ears.

I yell, 'Wait a minute! Don't kill my sister! She hadn't eaten any humans!' She ignores me and quickly dashes toward me trying to cut Nezuko down. I quickly take in a deep breath and leap up a tree. Leaping from tree to tree trying to escape from her but she caught up to me. Time to go past my limits now! I take another deep breath and my scar on my forehead transforms into a red demon crest marking once again. My whole body suddenly become more painful and ache but I endure it. I still got time before I pass out from exhaustion. I jump down and kick a tree. The tree immediately breaks in half and fall down onto the ground blocking her way. She was shocked to witness my strength.

I put Nezuko down and say, 'Run Nezuko! I will hold her back!' She look at me with hesitation and don't know what to do. I pat her head to reassure her that I'm gonna be alright. She nodded and run into the forest and hide in a bush. I sigh a relieve and turn toward the girl's direction. She suddenly appear on top of the fallen tree and jump down toward me. She do an axe kick down onto me. I quickly block with my two arms and grab her leg. I spin a circle and throw her to a tree. She quickly kick off the tree and do a backfilp midair. She lands infront of me and kick me at the side. She kicks hard! The pain in my whole body starting to get worse! I am losing consciousness... The whole world around me started to become black slowly and I fall onto the ground. I already reached my limit. I can't go on anymore... The mark on my forehead started to revert back to normal.

The girl looks at me and carry me to a nearby tree. She rest my body on the tree trunk and begin to find Nezuko. She immediately spotted her in the bush. She dashes toward her and swings her katana toward her. Nezuko quickly shrink smaller and avoided her slash. She begins to run away from her.

She was confused by Nezuko action, 'She's just running and not even trying to attack a little. Why? No need to think. Just follow orders and hunt the demons.' She chases Nezuko until she is cornered at a tree.

At Giyu side...

'I'm in the right for coming to kill demons. So I don't think I am violating the rules, but Giyu-kun this is a violation of hunters conduct. You are obstructing the demon killing. What do you intend on doing?' the girl said. Giyu ignores her and continue to lock her in a headlock in place.

Her face starting to form tick marks, 'Why don't you try saying something,G-i-y-u-k-u-n...' with a very scary tone. He shiver a bit when she called his name like that.

He replies, 'I believe it was 2 years ago when I met...'

She interrupts him talking immediately, 'Just shut up already Giyu-kun. This is going to be a problem if you are going to start from such a long time ago. This is harassment. You just have a grudge because I said everyone hates you, right?' His expression become annoyed and sad at the same time comically. She raises her one of her leg backward and gonna swing her heel with a small blade on it toward him.

Suddenly one crow landed beside them and yells, 'Cawwww! Message! Message! We have a message! Restrain the ones named Tanjiro and Nezuko and bring them to the headquarters!' The girl and Giyu stop what ever they are doing and were shocked. Why do the headquarters want me and Nezuko.

The crow also flies to the area me and Nezuko at while crowing, 'Tanjiro as well as the demon Nezuko! Restrain them and bring them to the headquarters! Tanjiro has a scar on his forehad! The demon Nezuko is biting onto a piece of bamboo!'

The girl lean forward her and says, 'So you are Nezuko and that guy from before that has a scar on his forehead is Tanjiro. Okay, bind him.' while ordering her squad.

Her squad kneel beside me and feel pity for me, 'Huh... his body is so hot. He also sustained some injures. Lets bind him.'

(Narrator's POV)

You see this people are called the post-processing squad "Kakushi". The squad that deals with everything after the demon hunters and demons fight. The members of this squad are pretty the people who weren't blessed with sword talents.

(Tanjiro's POV)

They put Nezuko into my box and carry me to the demon hunter's headquarters.

Everything was still black for me and I haven't woken up.

Suddenly I heard a lot of people talking,

Get up.

He's waking up.

Wakey... hey.

Hey come on. Come on bastard. Come on! How long are you gonna sleep! Get up already!

I immediately jolted awake. I bring my guard up to its highest and observe my surroundings. I can't move my body at all because I am tied up. I widens my eyes when I see a row of people standing infront of me gracefully.

A crow landed beside and crows, 'THE PILLARS ARE NOW PRESENT!'
