  Name's pov
Many years have gone by. Yoriichi and I continued to slay demons till we grew old together.
     I ended up gifting my stilettos to a girl called Yua, she even took my last name to show her love and admiration for me.
       He was now 85 and I was 83, but I look 61 and it is surprising, because I only have a few strands of grey hair and my skin is still quite firm.
     I'm more amazed that I lived this long since being frozen made my heart quite weak.
      It would be normal to think Yoriichi and I would be married but no, we aren't. He still keeps his late wife's memory close to his heart and said it wouldn't be fair for him to marry me since Michi... used to love me.
    "Hey Name, how about a moonlit walk?" he asked me suddenly.
    "Why not, I'd love that" I responded as we wore warm clothes to go out.

     ......................🌷🌷🌷..............

  When I look at myself and Yoriichi, it's hard to believe we were such gorgeous looking people.
    I still remember how I used to blush seeing the brothers shirtless, full of muscle and looking so fresh. Their energy when they were pleasing me during our mission in the brothel house.
    The way they used to pin me against objects and whisper words of love in my ear. But those days are gone, and I haven't been able to kill Muzan.
     We were walking through the forest when I had a mini heart attack. It was something frequent so I sat on a tree stump as I took deep breaths.
     We heard some rustling bushes in the distance so Yoriichi went to check it out. I still find it unbelievable that even at old age, he can still wield his sword like when he was in his prime.

Yoriichi's pov
   Name and I grew old together and I felt like we should do something lovely, like when we were young.
    I asked her out on a moonlit walk to which she agreed. All I ever wanted in this life was to have a loving family, children and a loving wife. I had Uta (my late wife) and unborn child killed by a demon.
     I moved on and that's when Name came into my life. She was a ray of light full of positivity. I loved her so much and so did Michi, I realized she loved Michi more and I was okay with that.
     I love my brother and he also deserved happiness. I can see life taking a different turn if Name hadn't been frozen. He probably would have married her and wouldn't have become a demon.
    
     As Name and I walked through the forest enjoying the serenity, she had a small heart attack which required her to cool down and breathe. Rustles could be heard in the distance, so I decided to go investigate.
      I didn't expect who was infront of me, it was Michikatsu, well, the demonic version of him.
    "How, how is it that you survived, you were supposed to die at 25" he said with shock visible in his tone.
     I was only filled with sadness as I had to kill him, he has devoured countless and as a demon slayer, I had to kill him.
    "It doesn't matter, I'm sorry but I must finish you" I said as I prepared for an attack.
     I didn't give him the chance to reply before I beheaded him quickly. I tried to catch my breath as he screamed in pain before reattaching his head.
    "Why, you surpass me in everything, it's not fair" he said before he came with an attack.
     I felt cold suddenly as I lay in a pool of warm crimson. I saw my life flash before my eyes, white light blinding me as the world around me turned silent.
    My brother.... actually slashed my body in half. I was dying, I wanted to at least, say goodbye...to Name, before I go.

  Michikatsu's pov
   I can't believe my brother survived, it only filled me with rage that he had everything.
    "I hate you" I said out loud so at least his spirit would hear.
      I was no longer Michikatsu, but Kokushibo. Muzan gave me the name. I want to get stronger, I want to surpass Yoriichi on every way.
      I saw the flute I carved for him when we were kids. He still kept it after all this time, I don't know how to feel, but yet again, demons don't feel emotions anymore.
     I smelt marechi blood. I needed to find the person and devour them. Someone slowly emerged from behind a tree.
     "Yori!, Oh my, Yoriichi!" a woman with a few strands of grey hair screamed and rushed to hug his lifeless body.
        Using my transparent world ability, I examined their genetics and couldn't believe it was Name. The poetic warrior who captured my heart, the one I failed to protect years ago. She is alive!
    "Michikatsu?!" she exclaimed surprised before clutching her chest in pain.
     I can see that her heart is weak, she might die soon. I had so much to tell her and she dying wouldn't help.
    "Name... become a demon and it's Kokushibo" I told her nonchalantly as I cut myself to give her some of my blood to drink.
       The look of anger, disgust and pity danced in her beautiful eyes.
   "Your new name disgusts me and I'd rather die! I can't believe I actually fell in love with you once!. I promised myself to end all demons and I will" she said angry as regret made its way into my empty heart.
       She actually loved me. I guess she doesn't anymore since she unsheathed her sword and got prepared to fight.
   "Yoriichi loved you, but your jealousy has consumed you. I hate you! And I'll make sure you atone for your sins" she roared and attacked.
      She still had her speed and agility, it was like I was fighting with the younger version of her.
   "I ask again.., become a demon..., you'd live forever. You would be stronger"  I offered her to which she declined.
    "I will not serve a coward. My dear samurai, I thought you'd come find me, like the way I came to find you. But you're a bastard " she said calmly as she steadied her breathing.
       So the poem she wrote was meant for me. How foolish I had been. She fought with me tirelessly with the hope of beheading me.
      Well, she never did succeed in doing so, she ended up passing out on the ground when her heart stopped beating, she's dead. Gone forever, nothing but a memory.
         I wanted to feast on her corpse but I couldn't. I couldn't bring myself to do that to her, so I left their bodies to rot, leaving the place and never to return again.
