THE NIGHT HUNTER'S | DEMON SLAYER MODERN AU

CHAPTER 3

"My job is slaying vile demons . Of course , i also need to chop off your sister's head" he said , as the chill went down tanjiro's spine .

"Hang on --- nezuko didn't kill anyone . My house has another smell , that i have never smelled before . It killed everyone ---  I think that must be the case! It wasn't nezuko . Although I don't know why she became like this . But---" the swordsman cut him off .

"The reason is simple . When the demon's blood touches her wound , she'll become a demon . That's how man-eating demons grow their numbers" the swordsman said .

"Nezuko is different--- She won't eat people" tanjiro yelled , his voice filled with emotions .

"I can't believe you said that . Weren't you almost eaten by her?" He asked . Making his grip stronger on nezuko .

"No!--- nezuko definitely recognized me . I won't let anyone hurt her . Nezuko will become a human again . I'll definitely cure her!"tanjiro said with hope and determination .

"She's hopeless . After she becomes a demon , she can never become a human again" he said .

"I'll find it! I'll definitely find a way . Don't kill her! I'll find the one , who killed my family . I'll do all the above . So---" the man put his katana on nezuko's neck "Don't kill her" tanjiro yelled .

"Don't take away my family from me again" tanjiro's voice cracked as he bowed his head , pressing his forehead on the cold blood soaked snow "please , stop it . Please! Don't kill nezuko" tanjiro pleaded , crying .

The swordsman looked at tanjiro bowing and gritted his teeth with anger .

"Don't let another person take control of your right to live or die" the man yelled , angrily .

Tanjiro's eyes widened , he looked up at the man "Don't beg others , pitifully! If doing so works , your family wouldn't have been dead . When that right is being taken away , the weak who can't take control want to cure his younger sister and find the culprit? What a joke! The weak don't have Rights or choices . Even if you go all out , you'll fall into the hands of the strong" the man yelled .

Tanjiro can't utter a single word out of his mouth .

"Maybe the demons will know the method to cure your sister . But don't dream that the demons will respect your will and request . Of course , I also won't respect you . This is the reality" the man said , anger still shown in his voice .

"Why did you let her push you to the ground just now? Were you protecting your sister? Why didn't you swing your hatchet? Why did you turn your back against me?" He asked , yelling .

"Your sister was taken , because of your failure" the man pointed his sword at tanjiro , his gaze cold and unyielding "I should have pierced you and your sister" he yelled , tanjiro eyes widened , his confusion turning into despair .

'Don't cry! Don't lose hope . You shouldn't be doing those things now . I know you can't take the blow again . Your family was murdered . Your sister becomes a demon . Are you hurt? Do you want to scream your heart out? I understand . Only If I arrived here half a day earlier , maybe your family wouldn't have to die . But I can't turn back the time' the man thought looking at the boy .

'Unleash your fury . The powerful and pure rage of unforgiveness will become an unwavering force driving your limbs . A fragile will --- won't be able to save you and cure your sister --- or avenge your family' the man then stabbed nezuko in the shoulder .

"Gyaaah" nezuko yelled in pain .

"Don't you dare touch her" tanjiro yelled in anger and threw a rock at him .
