*Daki's POV*

I watched the entire scene unfold. Annoyed at the outcome. Gyutaro killed every single one of those men I sent over. I was tired of her being around, her very existence pissed me off and if humans killed her, then Muzan would forgive me.

Instead, my stupid brother had to get in the way. He's supposed to be protecting me! But that girl is getting all of his attention and what for? How is she going to benefit from that?!

"Daki"

I perked up, hearing Lord Muzan's voice. 'He must be here!' I quickly jump from roof to roof, reaching my room at unimaginable speeds. I kneeled down, giving the man my full respect.

His voice was kind, making me feel weak. "How are you, Daki?" His silky voice making me melt. He motioned for me to come closer and I did not hesitate. I approached immediately and he patted his leg, allowing me to rest my head. "My dear Daki, you seem troubled" I took in a deep breath, not sure where to begin.

"The new girl is troublesome. I'm glad you're here to take care of her, Lord Muzan. She's been distracting Gyutaro from protecting me!" He sounded surprised as he spoke "I did not know you enjoyed your brother's attention in that way."

I sat up quickly, embarrassed that he would suggest something so disgusting "Absolutely not! It's just...." Now I was questioning myself, I enjoyed seeing my brother happy but I was so used to seeing him get excited over killing and not find happiness from another person. I noticed the smirk on Muzan's face "I must meet this Y/N girl if she has caught the interest of Gyutaro."

As if on cue, Gyutaro walked in, carrying Y/N bridal style. This infuriated me and I approached him, ready to yank her out of his arms but he held onto her tighter. "Leave her alone, Daki. She's had a rough night." I scoff, folding my arms "well maybe you should've just let those men take care of her!" I felt my blood turn cold. I just ratted myself out.

I felt Muzan's hand on my shoulder, his face close to mine. "Please Daki, elaborate on what you mean by 'take care of her'" I felt his finger in my neck, his blood entering me, causing excruciating pain. He was looking into my memories, seeing me direct those men where Y/N would be. Encouraging them to kill her and paying them money when they asked.

I felt tears form, I stared at my brother, hoping he would save me but he looked away. Clenching onto Y/N even more. I couldn't react on what she was going to do next.

Y/N wiggled out of Gyutaro's arms, she was running towards me but everything seemed in slow motion. She was yelling out something, how annoying. Gyutaro tried reaching out for her, his eyes filled with panic as she ran towards Lord Muzan. What is she going to do? He'll kill her before she has a chance to lay a finger on a strand of hair.

To my surprise, blue spider lilies started to form around me. 'It's the flower Lord Muzan has been searching for! But....where is it coming from?' The girl's voice was a clear as day "Leave Daki alone!" I fell to the ground, stunned and gasping for air. The extra blood Muzan put in me was draining out quickly but how?

I shakily look down at my arms and noticed I was bleeding out of them. I was laying in a puddle of blood. No way this was all of Lord Muzan's blood?!

The sound of struggling filled my ears, I looked to Gyutaro first, his sickles out and he was holding onto them so tightly that he was drawing blood. I slowly face towards the sounds and see Y/N clawing at Muzan's hand around her neck.

"Are you related to that doctor?!" Even though he could easily kill her, she glared at him. "I....don't....know...." He clenched her throat tighter "Where are you from?!" She was becoming weak "I.......don't......know......"  his grasp tightened until a snap could be heard. Her body fell limp. "Such a pity...." He dropped her body, my eyes widened when no movement came from her.

What was more shocking was Gyutaro standing up to Lord Muzan. "How could you?! You didn't give her a chance...." Were those tears forming....? No....I'm just seeing things.

"A chance you say? If you listen, her heart is still beating. I plan on turning her into a demon and see her memories." Muzan raised his hand, all fingers clenched except his index. He glared down at the girl "and this way, she won't disobey me"

He kneeled down towards her, ready to put his blood into her. But it made me question, will this even work? She's half demon after all. And what about her demon art? Does it really involve the spider lilies?

As he went to puncture her skin, a heavy aura surrounded her and threw Lord Muzan across the room. My blood turned cold, no, it was more than that. The entire room was turning to ice. I slowly sat up and breathed out. A mist coming out of my mouth. "Gyutaro....what's going on?" He didn't respond quickly enough and it caused concern.

I looked up at him and noticed his expression. Fear and worry could be seen on his face. I look back at the scene that was unfolding, my eyes widening when the girl appeared.

Her fingertips, sharp and what looked like ice covering them. Her skin, a tint of blue. Her lips, purple. Everything about her look was as if she died in an ice land. The look in her eyes was sinister, she wasn't the same girl anymore and she smelled more like a demon.

I looked over towards Lord Muzan, he stood up slowly and brushed off any dirt that might've been on his suit. "Well well....aren't you a little frightening." He took a step towards her only to take two steps back. I rubbed my eyes, not seeing what just attacked him but his expression changed from curious to upset.

"Gyutaro, come fight her." My eyes widened as I quickly look up to my brother. Surprisingly, he dropped his sickles. "No...." Gyutaro held his breath as Muzan was manipulating him. "If you won't fight her...." Y/N launched herself towards Muzan, hand extended out, ready to kill. "Then I'll use your body as a shield!" I closed my eyes, hearing the sound of flesh being torn and blood hitting the ground.

Did Lord Muzan get hurt?

Or....

Was it Gyutaro....?

I was afraid to open my eyes and I knew I needed too. "G-Gyu...taro....." I slowly open my eyes, only to hear a scream. Was I screaming? I was screaming, but the scene before me gave me every reason to.

Y/N's arm was through Gyutaro's chest. Ice formed around the hole and her arm. Gyutaro coughed up blood but held a loving gaze towards her. His hand slowly raised up to touch her cheek. "Don't...cry...he's gone Y/N. You're....safe...."

Gyutaro started falling backwards, her arm sliding out of his chest and he quickly hit the ground with a loud thud. "Gyutaro!" Her appearance started to change back to normal but she collapsed where she stood.

"I didn't mean to Daki! I don't know what happened!" She weakly spoke. Tears formed in her eyes. I could tell she wasn't lying. "Stop crying, you can't kill him that easily." Y/N fainted, the once icy room warming back up. Muzan nowhere in sight but he had one last message for me.

"Daki...keep an eye on the girl...see if you can get any information out of her. I want her to stay alive. Don't mess this up, Daki"
