Moriko's P. O. V:

I sit next to my husband with his arm around my shoulders as we watch our three children playing. I have a content smile on my face. I'm also in a casual outfit.

The children laugh as they play.

After a few minutes, my Kusagai crow calls from outside the window. I get up to open it. "Caw, caw! Moriko Hirano! You're to head to a village where a small group of demons is attacking! Not too far from here. Head east. Caw, caw!!"

She then flies off and I sigh. I turn to my husband as I announce, "I have another mission to get to."

Aiko, Makoto and Mamoru look a bit sad at that.

Giyu gets up and comes over to me, giving my hand a squeeze. "Be careful," he murmurs before kissing my lips.

I smile at him as I say, "Always."

I then go to our shared room to change into my Demon Slayer uniform, my hair now in a bun, before I strap my nichirin katana to my left waist and head off to east for my mission.

🗡️🗡️🗡️

I slash with my katana, cutting down a lesser demon, but there were still nine to go. I dodge a swing from a demons' claw and chop off its hand before I follow it with his head.

Then I whirl around to slash another demons' head off before it could attack from behind.

I go to attack another with my Cruel Drowning technique, slashing at all angles before beheading the demon. I then use my Infinite Heaven technique that takes out another demon.

I take out the next one with my Cloud of Dust technique.

I dodge a kick by leaping into the air but as I come down, it manages to to land a strong enough kick to my ribs that I hear a crack. I grunt as I place my hand over the wound before another demon claws my right arm, making me hiss at the pain.

A third demon grabs my right wrist and my eyes widen and I let out a scream as it bends my hand backwards until my wrist snaps. I clutch it as I suck in sharp breaths, which allows for the demon to kick me to the ground.

I lay there, panting against the pain that's flaring through my body, until I gasp as I see a demon about to pounce on me.
