New Murata Storyline

Tales of Murata Part 2

      Murata sheathed his nichirin katana after dispatching the two demons and looked up at the full moon, sighing in relief and taking a moment to close his eyes. After a brief moment of relaxation he widened his eyes and begin to panic.

'Wait this forest is infested with demons there's likely dozens of them and a chance some have a blood demon art, oh god-'
He thought to himself

Taking a deep breath to regain his composure Murata would've continued walking through the forest in search of the remaining demons lurking around.  He came across corpse that only had the top part of the whole body remaining while everything waist down was gone, blood was everywhere. Murata covered his mouth and nearly puked.

"The body isn't rotting yet and the blood isn't dried, this likely happened recently."

Now clenching his fist and slamming it against a random tree out of frustration.

"If only I had come here just a little bit sooner I could've prevented this."

It was silent for a brief period of time before Muratas ears would twitch at the sound of rapid footsteps and he turned to see a demon up in the air above his face with its claws raised, then slashing down.

      Murata jumped back dodging the slash with its claws but two flying tanto would fly towards his side , he saw these and managed to barley dodge but one of the tanto managed to cut him.

Murata would unsheath his sword and glare daggers at the demon. The two tanto would begin spinning around the demon and Murata just stared before covering his mouth with one hand and trying not to laugh.

'This is its blood demon art!? It's pathetic, I'm lucky to fight one with a terrible demon art but a unskilled slayer like me will still have to be cautious.'

Deciding to take the offensive Murata charged at the demon and jumped up, raising his katana up and slashing at the demons neck.

'Water Breathing Eight Form:Waterfall Basin'

The demons head was tilted to the side so he had to slash vertically , he inhaled while raising his nichirin katana up and cutting down vertically in a flowing motion. It was sort of an idiot and expected Murata to be terrified of a blood demon art so it was unprepared for an attack and got its head cut off.

Murata landed on the ground and rubbed his head.
"This demon was surprisingly weak-...OR IT JUST MEANS I GOT A LOT STRONGER YEA!!"

He cheered loudly without a care in the world it all the demons in the forest went after him, he felt invincible now. Suddenly a demon would charge at him from the tree line, Murata noticed this and turned swinging his katana diagonally but he was to slow. The demon speed blitzed him and slashed with his claws at Muratas face leaving a cut.

The demon landed on the ground and turned to Murata with a sickening grin planted on his face from ear to ear, raising his hand up and licking the blood off its claws.

Murata cursed under his breath and glared daggers at the demon but his heart dropped as he saw the demons eyes.
