Demon Slayer: hámon chronicles

Part 5: The Swordsman

(3rd person p.o.v)

A sharp ringing sound of hamon filled the room as Jonathan raised his blade high and Stance offensive. This action didn't go overlooked by the demon as he immediately tensed, but remained un-wavered in his confidence of taking down this swordsman.

?Demon?: 集中呼吸？ さて...これは面白いですね
(Concentration breathing? Now this should be interesting...)

Flying forward, Jonathan took the first swing at the demon. Defending against Jonathans attack, twin whip like tendril with a bony blade like appendages at the tip sprouted on Muzans back to block the brunt of the attack, then sprouting another pair of the same whip like tendrils to counter attack. Each one striking from either side of Jonathans flank.

Jonathan: Huh! Such speeds! he's nothing like the others iv'e encountered!

Acting quickly he leaped back dodging the attack. Taking advantage of the window he has before Jonathan could recover back to his stance, the demon unleashed a barrage of stabbing and slicing attacks at Jonathan, each one of them targeting his limbs.

Jonathan however was quick to react bringing his blade down on each attack, slicing and deflecting the attacks sent his way.

Jonathan: "Ach! It's too dangerous to have us fighting near Tanjiro and the others! They may get hurt or worse, I need to take this outside."

Jonathan: Hamon! SILVER OVERDRIVE!

Screaming at the top of his lungs, Jonathan raised his sword above his head once again before spinning forward into a upward strike.

Blocking the attack, steel meeting with bone, the blade shivered as a silver like glow traveled throughout the blade. A sharp ringing sound filled the room once again, this time silver sparks flashed all throughout Jonathan's body. Hamon circulating from his body into the blade.

?MJ?: 何？！ 私に物が見えているのか、それとも彼が輝いているのか?!
  (What?! Am I seeing things or is he glowing?!)

The Tendrils spazzed whilst making contact with the sliver hamon blade, bubbling before completely sagging and melting. Jonathan not wasting his opportunity, pushed his attack foward and sliced though the defense of the demon, slamming the blade across the demons torso.

Muzan: ああ！ どうやって!?
  (Ack! You how!?)

This was not enough to completely slice through, but it however worked in Jonathan's favor. Using the time the demon is stunned to lift his left hand and, using hamon.

KOOOHHH

pumped his already roided out arm with hamon energy, further strengthening it and giving it a golden hue.

Jonathan: ZOOM! PUNCH!

Throwing his fist straight in the head, the demon was launched through the walls and outside. Reeling back his arm jonathan immediately sheathed his blade and jumped through the destroyed walls of the Kamado house hold and stepped outside.

Tanjiro: んっ！ ジョナサンさん！ 待って..！
  (Ngh! Mister Jonathan! Wait..!)

But before Tanjiro could say more and chase after him, his attention quickly shifted to Nezuko and his family and realizing the state they're in immediately came to aid them.

(Demons p.o.v)

He was just going along his day as he would any other, he was taking a peaceful stroll through a bamboo forest when he came across a man who forever changed that moment, he shook him to the core. It was the first time this demon; Muzan Kibutsuji, felt dread, But it also made him feel another thing just as greatly. Resentment, he hated the man, his ideals, his belief, his view on lives.
