“I have come to make a report… Muzan-sama.” 

Akaza bowed as he stood before his master. The enormous mansion’s lights filled the night air as a young boy blankly flipped through the pages of a book he held. Muzan’s red eyes glimmered and he turned to his Upper Moon 3.

His red eyes soon filled with veins and he bared his teeth.

“Did you find what we talked about?”

“I did some investigation but there is no additional information. So I cannot confirm that the blue spider lily exists.” Akaza explained.

“And?”

“I will do my best from now on to live up to your expectations, so do not worry…”

“You are hiding something from me, Akaza.” Muzan snarled, “don’t you understand what the consequences are when you hide something from me?”

Akaza twitched when he felt pain ignite in his body. His body began to crumple and crinkle as Akaza forced himself not to falter. His blood spilled from his mouth, as his demon lord stood before him.

“Spill it.”

“Kokushibo has betrayed us, Muzan-sama.” Akaza choked on his own blood, “he has chosen to travel with a girl with (h/c) hair, (e/c) eyes, and is wearing a (f/c) haori.”

“And who is this girl?”

“Her name is (name). She is far stronger than any Hashira and demon to have ever existed. Her body structure and fighting ability is superior, almost inhumane. I have to admit that… I lost to her.” Akaza gritted his teeth, hiding the fact that she obliterated his balls. 

A hand made itself into Akaza’s skull as Muzan infiltrated the Upper Moon’s mind. His sight allowed him to see a young woman with the same description Akaza said. She was fighting Akaza nonchalantly, and when she turned around… Muzan felt his heart stop. 

Her dead (e/c) eyes looked into Muzan’s red plum ones as her stoic face stared at him. Before long, she smirked evilly and continued to battle with Akaza.

His hand wrenched itself out of Akaza’s hold and he shifted back to his normal form.

“Begone, Akaza.”

With another bow, Akaza dashed out of the mansion. Muzan stood alone in the giant library, and he placed a hand over his face. A deep chuckle echoed in his throat, before he laughed hysterically into the room. A maid came in to check what was going on, but Muzan smashed her skull in an instant. 

“I want her! That girl!” Muzan yelled with joy, “I want to see her!” 

“This (Name)!”

“I want her by my side as my demon queen!”

        Akaza ran out of the mansion and now stood before a couple of tall wooden round stands. He had found a couple of melons, and he placed it on top of a stand. He also put a (h/c) blanket on top of the fruit, as he got into his fighting stance. 

(Name)’s face appeared from the melon and Akaza felt sweat coat his head. A shadow of a fist emerged from the melon and made its way to collide with Akaza’s pp, as the upper moon barely dodged it. His body hit the ground and Akaza winced from the impact.

Akaza tumbled and gritted his teeth as he punched the ground. 

“It’s just a hallucination… It's not real.” 

Muzan had damaged his body so Akaza shouldn’t push himself. A stick caught his eye and his heart started to thump. The image of (name) patting Kokushibo’s head appeared in his mind, and the pinkette looked at his own hand.
