Fallen into another world...? [Read Desc]

•Two | Unknown World•

The hole opened up again in an unknown place, yeeting Aether unconsciously into a deep forest. He was still unconscious, while unwanted guests had arrived. The demons surrounded him, about to take him for their lunch, as they growled hungrily. Before the demons could even get close enough, Tanjiro happened to be nearby and he ran as fast as he could, inhaling to use his breathing technique

"Water breathing... First form... Water Surface Splash!" he yelled out loud, unsheathing his nichrin sword to slay the demon's head in a mere second.

Once Tanjiro completely slayed those demons and exhaled, he hurried to check if Aether was alright. He sighed in relief that there were no wounds and scratches that were left from the demons.

"You alright?" he asked, waiting for a response while putting his nichrin sword back to its sheath.

Aether was still unconscious so there was no response from him. Tanjiro realizes his current state and picks him up. He carried him on his back, as he walked through the deep forest, on his way back to the Demon Slayer Corps.

Tanjiro's POV

It was weird that I sensed this person's scent appeared out of nowhere. I couldn't tell if he's a demon with Blood Demon Art or just an ordinary human. Though I asked myself this... Do demons ever sleep? Well Nezuko is a demon after all and she does sleep. But I don't know about ordinary demons at night... But first things first, I need to bring him back to the Butterfly Mansion!

Time has passed by from walking and Tanjiro has finally entered the Ubuyashiki estate. There, he was greeted by Inosuke who was chasing Zenitsu. It didn't take long until Zenitsu realized Tanjiro is finally here to save him.

Zenitsu hid behind Tanjiro and shivered in fear, "T-tanjiro, please tell Inosuke to stop chasing me!" he yelled nervously.

By the time Inosuke almost got close to where Zenitsu was, Tanjiro stopped him by opening his arm wide open, defending Zenitsu and Aether.

"Gonpachiro!" Inosuke stopped, finally noticing that Tanjiro was there.

"Look Inosuke, I need to bring this person I found in the forest to the Butterfly Mansion. So please don't cause any trouble while I'm gone." Tanjiro explained, looking straight at Inosuke's boar mask, making sure Inosuke understand what he was saying.

Inosuke still didn't understand a single thing, and decided to also tackle him. Tanjiro had enough, placing Aether down to the side, where he won't get hurt from Inosuke attacks.

It has only been 5 minutes since the two started fighting. Aether slowly opened his eyes, as the moonlight shines down his face. He didn't know where he was, only hearing inaudible gibberish from Inosuke. Getting up, he could see Zenitsu beside him, shivering in fear as he always was.

Aether POV

Strange... Where am I? And who are these people here? Wasn't I just in Mondstadt not too long ago...? I got up, trying to sneak away from these three people. But when I sneaked inside this nearby building, I was caught by this girl who was uhh... wearing a bamboo muzzle in her mouth? Judging by her clothing, I must be in Inazuma, r-right? Just before I was about to run in another direction, the girl took her bamboo muzzle off, it seems that she wants to talk to me.

"H-hello, are you new here?" Nezuko asked, kinda stuttering as she spoke.

"Well um... yeah?" Aether answered unsteadily, he didn't know what he was doing anymore.

"Then i-it's nice to meet y-you," she smiled.

Aether started to sweat, he didn't want to stay in this building he was in. "I don't want to be rude but... Do you know where I am?" he asked

"You are i-in the Butterfly Mansion,"

He shooked his head, "N-no, I mean where am I as in place."

Nezuko tilted her head, she still didn't understand a single thing he said, "I'm s-sorry but I don't g-get what you're saying."

Aether sighed, "It's alright..."

Running footsteps could be heard outside the Butterfly Mansion. As soon as the footsteps got close enough, the door crashed wide open.

A/N : HelloOOo, Merry Christmas sillies! If you haven't noticed, there is finally a cover!!! I want to say that since this is also after the Swordsmith Village Arc, Nezuko will still be struggling to speak. And I'm kinda lazy to write a bit more for this chapter. So I hope you have a nice day/afternoon/night :D
