Tanjiro jumped towards the demon with just a normal speed. His limbs are still a bit worn out so he can't unleash any complex move right now.

But due to that, the demon was able to react and tap one of the drums in its body. Suddenly, the room turned side, making the tatami look like a wall, and the wall became the stepping ground.

'This must be his Blood Demon Art... Quite an annoying one.'

His technique allows him to manipulate the room's position however he wants. This whole building was under his control. But that's not all what he can do.

Tanjiro tried to move towards the demon again and again, but the room always got turn upside down. But Tanjiro wasn't just playing around. He made sure to memorize the drum beating. If it's the right drum, then the room turned into right side, and the opposite if he tap the left drum.

The room will continue to turn to the side depending on which drum he tap. Noting all of this Tanjiro still decided to move and move, since the demon hasn't yet revealed the technique of the drum in the demon's stomach.

But then, suddenly, one of the sliding doors got wrecked and a person wearing a boar mask appeared in the room. Based on his pants and blade, he was a member of Demon Slsyer Corps.

Whike Tanjiro couldn't care less about the newcomer, the weird masked person suddenly went ahead and attack the demon. The demon tap hisndrum again, changing the position of the room.

"HAHAHAHAHA! I see, I see! I see what's going on! This is gonna be interesting!" The masked person shouted in delight.

'I met another strange member of corps today...'

Before any of them could move however, Tanjiro smelled an incoming attack towards him. A three claw wind slash suddenly make its way towards Tanjiro, which he dodged by jumping out of the way. He noticed that the boar person was also attack by the same attack technique.

The tatami was torn apart in three slashes, a completely different technique than the room position changing.

'That drum's sound was different from the two on his shoulder.... That means it came from that one in his stomach.'

Now that Tanjiro knew all of the demon's technique, he decided to make a move now, but the boar masked guy beat him to it and charged to the demon himself.

But before he could reached it, however, the roomed suddenly changed. Completely surprising Tanjiro.

'I didn't see the demon tapping any of his drum, though... Does that mean there are more demons here who use that drum technique's?'

Tanjiro was transported to the bedroom once again. He can't smell the demon's presence nearby, so he lowered his guard and casually walked out of the room.

He smelled a scent of blood and turned around only to see a dead body. He didn't bother approaching it and just leave the hallway.

"There's a scent of blood that I've never known. It's not demon's blood, for sure." Tanjiro mumbled to himself.

"It's a human! A human with rare blood! Upon devouring them, demons will grew even more stronger. Rare blood is equivalent to 50 bodies!" The crow suddenly appeared out of nowhere.

"You... How did you come in here?"

"I can track you!"

"Whatever. Stay close to me, or you'll get yourself eaten." Tanjiro sighed.

He continued to roamed around the house, opening each door he stumbled in the hallway.

He was about to open another door, but smelled something inside of that room.
