Miracle

2 Years Before

A man who seemed at his 40's, was changing his patient's bandages. He was healing a young woman who was unconscious on top of a farm's pile of hay on the field. The girl was currently on the comfortable futon the man provided for her, laying unconscious for the moment.

A farmer, who tends to harvest his crops, had a sensitive nose; smelled an unsual scent on his bale. He knew the scent and it was obviously blood. He quickly ran over the bloodied pile of hay and saw the woman. He directly sent the woman to the doctor of the village.

—————

The woman was completely healed. But the doctor, who was named Murayama Hirashi, told that the woman had lost her memories. She had a year coma because of how severe her injuries were, especially her head.

She had a long, silky, black to purple gradient hair. She had a wonderful purple eyes, delicate body and was at her early 20's.

She stood on the edge of a hill as she watches the sun setting. The moment reminded her of someone but due to her memory loss, she was unable to identify the person. But she knew, that she had someone very close to her. It has been two years since she had been found on the pile of hay. No one really knew how she got in the place. She was just found unconsciously lying there, had multiple injuries, nothing else.

A woman, who as well seems to be at her 40's, suddenly appeared behind the young woman. She was Murayama Aisuyari, Hirashi's wife. Aisuyari came closer to her.

"Dear daughter, dinner's ready. Let's go?" Aisuyari said sweetly.

The young woman really loved Aisuyari's sweet and loving voice. Once again, she remembered another person who had the same traits as her. But she couldn't remember the person as well. She hoped that they were fine.

She smiled at her mother as she nodded. Both of them descended the hill until they've reached the town.

"We cannot surely tell if Shinobu-sama's alive or not. There's no confirmation of her death after all. But there's a possibility that she might have been disappeared without leaving a trace. So it might be troublesome to locate her in the moment." Said Zenitsu.

When Urokodaki arrived, they started to talk about the search for Shinobu. Kanao left suddenly without letting anyone know about her intentions or where she's going for the moment. Whatever it is, it must be something related to Shinobu.

Urokodaki nodded at Zenitsu and said, "I'm sure Shinobu is in a vast place. I heard she almost used herself to sacrifice and send poison towards the demon who killed her sister, but Giyuu prevented it. But she went missing after fighting with the Fiend, right?" (Fiend = Muzan)

Zenitsu nodded while Inosuke was looking serious. Although he was wearing his signature boar mask, the seriousness of his posture can be seen on him.

"So it must be the Fiend that caused that immense power of a technique. Since the ancient times, only a few demons knew about the technique of Blow Away. It was a rare technique, although it cannot entirely kill but it is critical to a person's body to send multiple injuries in a single hit. Literally with its name, it can blow away a person. That must've happened."

Urokodaki used to be a historian before and after joining the demon slayers. Although it was years before, he also studied about the revealed trump cards of the demons, including the rare ones. These information came from the hunters who managed to survive while fighting these rare demons. But mostly came from pillars. The rare techniques are most showned from the demon moons. It's better to keep a journal about those to prep for the future.
