Light [K. Nezuko x reader]

Ｏｎｅ

You're an experienced slayer who works alone and completes missions flawlessly. Ignoring the sounds of cicadas, you enjoyed the cool breeze and the silence of the night as you rested on a branch of a giant tree in the middle of a forest.

Due to insomnia, there was no night where you could rest properly, so why not kill more demons?

"Kuro." you called out and a crow landed in front of you looking quite concerned as the circles under your eyes turned more darker after each passing days but he sighed in defeat after noticing your expectant gaze at him.

"Demons are lurking in the west." Kuro said, "In the fields."

With the given destination, you jumped down from the branch and headed west with your crow following you behind.

The walk was quiet until Kuro broke the peaceful silence, "Y/n... how about to rest tonight?"

"You know me, Kuro. Even if I rested for the night, I won't get any sleep. And the sleeping pills don't work either." you answered, "so why not head out and kill?"

Kuro didn't like the expected answer. He knew he'll receive the same answers from his owner if he keeps suggesting him to rest, yet he still tried hoping he was going to agree one day since it's affecting his health.

"I'm fine." That was your last words as you also ended the conversation with Kuro and continued walking to your destination.

Kuro flew away after arriving in front of many wheat fields signaling you have arrived and you started to enter the fields with your nichirin sword ready in your right hand.

Soon you were in the middle of nowhere. All you can see was more field, the night sky and the moon. Out of boredom, you started to look ahead and admired the view after lowering your katana.

The wheats seemed to glow under the moonlight...

Right after a few seconds, a demon charged at him from below the wheats as it was waiting for the slayer to loose their guard. But to the demons surprise the slayer lifted his sword without looking at them, and with a smooth swing downwards the demon was sudden blinded by a cloud of smoke and it's head was cut off leaving some traits of dust behind.

"How?!" the demon gasped in frustration, and knowing they were dying, they wanted the slayer in front of them dead, so they started shout the location of the slayer to the air.

"Who the f*ck you're talking to?" you asked unfazed but after the following snicker the fading demon made, you realise there was more of them.

"Perfect, I was worried there's nothing to do tonight." You stretched your limbs as more demon popped out from the wheat fields grinning at their prey.

Blood was everywhere.
The wheat fields was covered with blood and you could give a damn about the blood stains on your face and clothes.
As the sun was starting to rise, you quickly left the place fearing that a farmer might see you.

You requested Kuro to find a wysteria inn to get rid of the blood stains and the crow obeyed.

After having a meal and a warm bath at the wysteria inn, you sat on the engawa lost in thoughts until a voice brought you back to the present.

"Excuse me sir," the female owner of the wysteria inn spoke, "Your clothes are clean now. Is there something else you need?"

"No," you answered, "and thanks for everything." you got up attempting to leave since there was nothing else to do here.
