BY NIGHT, Kaori had taken a short nap safely in a little cave that she spotted where animals such as foxes would use to rest without worrying about their predators.

Thankfully, due to her small and flexible body - she was able to fit in the small hole and can move around as well. It was quite comfortable as she had the best nap. However, she did worry if she could get out again once she went in.

As the cold night breeze blew over the forest domains, Kaori crawled her way out of the hiding cave - grunting as she did so. Her nails dug into the dirt as she felt a small tug on her pants.

When she looked behind her, a sharp-end tip of a root had caught the fabric of her hakama pants. She groaned silently, tugging on it gently as she didn't want the pants given by the water hashira to rip or damaged.

"Ooh~ it's a pretty little girl~" A menacing sound echoed through the trees as Kaori perked her head up, clenching the fabric of her hakama pants.

Kaori kept tugging her pants but it showed no signs of getting unstucked. She clicked her tongue in annoyance as she sensed the dark aura of the demon coming closer to her.

"Hmm~ it's been so long since I've seen pretty humans like you roaming around this forest~" He cooed, giggling as his voice echoed everywhere. Kaori gave up and ripped the material off her pants, crawling out just to come face-to-face with a demon.

"Hmm, you look more beautiful up close~ kekeke~" He laughed, his dark green eyes glinting dangerously as she saw the kanji written former lower moon six written on it.

'Former? Then he must be replaced or crossed out from the lower moons!' Kaori clicked her tongue again as she jumped backwards, giving distance between them.

"You're trained by the water hashira?" He questioned, looking at Kaori as veins showed themselves through his pale white skin.

Kaori didn't reply, giving the demon a sceptical look as he sharpened his claws. "That damned hashira! He is the one who made me lose my title and kept me caged here for a thousand years!!"

"Blood demon art: conjuring thorns!!"

As he yelled that out loud, thousands of sharp spikes appeared from the ground and dashed themselves towards Kaori. Kaori lowered her stance, unsheathing the katana attached to her belt as she let out a cold breath.

"Rosce breathing... sixth form: bursting petals!"

Kaori created a series of rotational strikes - surrounding herself with it as it blocked a thousand thorns that were shooting against her. Kaori's new breathing technique was different as she had a mix of ice and also the flower rose.

She didn't know what to name it so she decided to name it 'Rosce' that's a nickname for both rose and ice. Giyuu thought it was a cool name so she went along with it.

When the attack from the demon was blocked, he made an amused sound. "So you don't master water breathing? You have your breathing technique then... you're very talented for a brat."
