Chapter 21 - Shinobu Kocho' Pov '

6 Months Ago,

At night i was walking in the road and i was issued to kill the demon in this area,however what i saw today was a bit unusual, i saw a person fighting a demon, well i mean i can literally see people fighting almost everynight but this one is not i saw this, person who isn't a demon slayer attacking a demon and he even got the upper hand!

I Didn't interfere their fight, as a looked closely i can see that this person knows how to use a Breathing Style!

And i heard he saying " Breath Of The Dragon..! First Form! <Pierce>! "

I got stunned, but not because he stabbed the demon ċhėst that i can't even see how he did it, its because oh his so called ' Breath Of The Dragon! ' i never heard of that Breathing Style not at all!

It's even more superior than my Breathing Style! as i continued to watch the fight i saw him making another move and the person silently said" Breath Of The Dragon..! Second Form! < Dragon's Slash >!"

As i looked at the result, i looked at the demon and i thought nothing happened to it? but i was wrong! after a few moment of staring, i saw the demon body slice into half! i didn't even saw him move! how does he do that?!

While being stunned few times,i kept watching at their fight, unknownly i didn't realize that i keep watching them till morning and believe it or not he killed the demon without Nichirin sword! without using any trick! or trap!

And i thought in my mind ' I wonder if his interested in join the Demon Slayer. He would be no doubt will become a new Pillar, if he'd just join.. '

Finally i moved in my spot and walked toward the person, as i go closer in the person, he noticed me and he just looked at me without any emotions in his face.

And as i speak " Ara..! Mr.Person~! did you know you just killed~ a demon~! "

The person looked at me and he spoke " What are you doing here little girl...get lost! "

Thus i got irratited and my view of him completely changed and regreted coming on contact with him! but i still smiled but not really a smile and i rebutted him " Ara..! Mr.Person..! do think your misunderstanding something..! as you see im not a C.H.I.L.D..! i admit im short but im not some kid you know~! "

I paused for a second and thought " This guy will be more annoying than Giyu! "

And i continued speaking " And i am a person whose job is to kill a demon like the one you killed~ we are called Demon Slayers~! "

However that person looked at him with a cold eyes and he said " Demon Slayers? who are you trying to fool kid! "

Got more irratited! and secretly shouting in my mind ' This guy! ' veins appeared in my forehead, but of course i didn't see it naturally and this time for real she regretted, comming into a contact with this person!

Then i ignored him, as i go to the dead body of this woman, i looked a the body with pity, as i buried the body in the forest and prays for it, i speaked again to this annoying person " Now~! i haven't properly introduce myself, fogive me~! my name is Shinobu Kocho, i am one of the current pillars of the Demon Slayer Corps~! " i said it with a smile but not really.

And the person said " Bah! delusional little girl! "

This time i got angry and said coldly to this person " Are you making F.U.N of me? "

And that person showed a fake scared expression, its pretty obvious since i can read the emotions base in the eyes of the person even if they change their face expressions and he said " Oh~! im scared! but fine! i'll believe you if you can show me where is your so called Demon Slayer Corps..! "

I got really irritated this time and thinking of a reason to calm down and thought ' He might be irritating but she sure has come skills. " she looked at the person, she endured it because of his skill i mean it's really hard to make your own Breathing style and he is a valuable to the Demon Slayer Corps if he join them.

And as i said " Fine! but..! stop calling me little when i'll proved that the Demon Slayer Corps are real! and not delusional! "

I ignore him and run my way to the Demon Slayer Headquarters, on the way he keep saying random things and i just ignored and on our way we saw a demon chasing a child and naturally i killed it with my poison.

However this guy didn't help me at all! he just stood there without doing anything! and the child said thank you to him?! this fu- and their i kept cursing this guy.

(A/N : Blah blah blah i'll just make it really short since you guys know about it anyways)

Hours after hours, days after days and finally we arrived at the Demon Slayer Headquarters, as i expected as we go inside the Headquarter, this guy got a fight with Sanemi because he called him ' Weak ' and so they fought and i got stunned again because he defeated him within a single punch.

I mean that's a pillar! not your ordinary person! i know this guy is strong! but i didn't think he was this strong! and after that Ubuyashiki-sama arrived at the scene and Ubuyashiki-sama asked me few questions and that guy too, i answered Ubuyashiki-sama question one by one.

Surprisingly this guy got the highest rank ' Kinoe ' without even doing any missions, this is why the world is unfair i had my current rank because i work my ȧss off, every single night but whatever since it already happen nothing can stop it.

After a while of watching and listening the topic, this guy showed something that even Ubuyashiki-sama got shocked and so i am too, because whenever Ubuyashiki-sama gets shocked it means a big deal.

Gyomei asked why did Ubuyashiki-sama gets shocked and then he explained about Marks, as for the revealation we got even more shocked and she shouted in her mind ' This guy?! can kill Muzan?! i don't want to believe it! '

And so this Mark person has this Breathing Style called ' Breath Of The Dragon ' which he claimed stronger than the original Breath. Breath Of Sun and so Ubuyashiki-sama asked my to teach us, which makes me a little piss not because Ubuyashiki-sama is underestimating us, it because i don't want this guy to be my teacher!

And so he said he would teach us if we call him " Sensei " but some of us rebuked and there we got into a fight with him and we didn't even stand a chance against him, for we can't even touch his clothes.

And after that we saw a Miracle, yes i miracle that we all didn't expect this guy literally give Gyomei a potion and that potion, shocked us to the core as we looked at it's effect, the potion healed Gyomei blind eyes and making him see.

That shocked me to the core especially im a doctor. Im good at healing but i didn't think potions could be this effective! and there is Mark guy give Ubuyashiki-sama a potion too and his burn like wound in his forehead is healed and he can now see clearly!

They thanked him and i looked at this Mark full of curiousity and thought in my mind " Who is this guy really? "

We started our hellish training, believe it or not it was the most cruelist traing that i ever had! but i got to admit it's really effective.

And then we parted to hunt a LOWER MOON Demon, so that he would became a pillar and there we talked more than usual and my view of him slowy turning into a Friend and as we go in our journy, we have met a demon, as i was suppose to fight it he said but as the demon said he was Part of the Lower Moon oh well this guy quickly took back what he said and killed the demon.

Their as the time pass our relationship grows and as we walked we met an Upper Moon Demon! i got on high alert since this was an Upper Moon Demon after all!

I rushed toward it, but i didn't even qualified to challenge it and i almost got killed by it (A/N : She thinks the Akaza was going to kill her and of course not he's just gonna make her faint thats all) and Mark saved me from it.

There because of that i felt something in my heart, that i never felt before i questioned myself ' What is this feeling? ' as i watched him defeating the demon, i was happy in my heart honestly i don't know what this feeling is?

But as i look at him letting the demon escape i got angry,really angry it's because of those so called Upper Moon Demon, many humans were killed including her sister i got mad at Mark and ignores him.

But i remember him giving me a golden necklaces, started to calm down i was really happy to have this and i looked at his handsome figure and my heart started to beat faster than before and she said silently " Is it fine to fall in love...? "

End -
