As Tanjiro attempts to attack, the demon takes hold of him and throws him in another direction.
"Tanjiro!" I shouted.
"I'll be alright! STAY STRONG BOTH OF YOU!" he yelled back, "I'll be back as soon as possible!"
"Ni no kata: Yoru no Heibun (Second Form: Night of Haven)" I used the technique to lessen its blow landing me in a safer way towards the ground. The Demon then continues his assault on Inosuke, only to be pinned by a tree that Tanjiro had cut. He quickly recovers from this, using the tree to smash his assailant into the distance.
I then follow with my next move towards the demon, "San no kata: Mae no Akariaseru (Third Form: Before the Lights Fade)", the Demon then attacks, breaking the tree he was leaning against. The paternal Demon blocks the strike but has his forearm severed as Inosuke strikes him with his two swords.
The demon then retreats, climbs up a tree, sheds his skin, and assumes a new form. He then descends the tree, ready to resume the battle.
He then manages to fool my senses and attacks me from behind, as soon as he did, Inosuke blocked the way and took most of the blow himself. He then attempts to sever the demon's neck by using Third Fang - Devour, only for his blades to shatter upon contact.
My eyes grew wide at the sight of the broken katana. Another presence was felt and made me want to finish the battle faster. The demon then walks up to Inosuke, grabbing him by the neck.
I took a deep breath and applied the poisonous technique Shizuka had taught me, "Roku no kata: Seiun (Sixth Form: Nebula)", I sprinted towards the demon and slicing off his hand that was holding Inosuke, striking him with a blade of poison causing the demon's mind to be clouded with illusions.
The moment was there, a thread was seen heading straight towards the demon's neck. "Shichi no kata: Seidan (Seventh Form: Star Cluster), I then leaped to the air aiming for his neck and swung my sword forward, creating groups of slashes, successfully beheading the demon.
As soon as I did, I saw an illusion of Giyu looking back at me, "I might have overdone the sixth form, I'm having hallucinations." I said, "He looks kinda cute too."
"Excuse me?" the illusion asked.
"Ehh? Shizuka never told me that the sixth form illusions could speak." I said,
"Hey you, fight me!" Inosuke said, pointing at what I thought was only an illusion.
"Inosuke, you can see him too?" I asked, I then walked up to Giyu, touching the left side of his cheek.
I then realized it was not an illusion, and as soon as I did, it was too late.
"Ahhh, gomen, gomenne, gomenasai! (Sorry, I'm very sorry!)" I apologized, "I thought you were only an illusion."
"Argh, darn it Gabriela. He's going to think your weird." I thought to myself while covering my face. I felt like wanting to melt right then and there.
Then suddenly, I felt a thread of webs wrap around my body, pulling me.
"Don't worry about her, FIGHT ME!" Inosuke said, pointing his broken katana at Giyu.
"Oh, a demon slayer, this is going to be fun!" the demon said, she had long white hair and a quite youthful appearance which made me think that she was the daughter of the one I and Inosuke had fought.
"Thank you!" I said,
"Eh, for what?" she asked.
"For saving me from that tough spot," I replied, smiling at her.
"Well then, why not give me a favor and stand still so I can kill you." She said,
"Alright, but you have only one move," I smiled.
She then attacked by using the web to try to pierce me, I then grabbed onto my sword and slashed the threads without moving my body and only my arms.
"That's not fair." She said,
"Why?" I asked, "I'm standing still, aren't I? It's my turn."
