Capítulo 261: First Resonance - Eon Soul Dew Shines!
The cursed sword entered the Demon's bleeding chest just.
The demon must have sensed it, then. A danger, transcending realms.
"AHHH!" he shouted, strength exploding around him, and he jumped back.
Too late.
Horrific cursed poison traveled to the demon's heart in the form of runic letters, and the same script appeared over his body like chains binding him from all around. "What is this?!" he asked, looking at the markings.
And then his heart stopped.
The demon fell to his knees, vomiting out a bucketful of blood.
He looked at Kai with dense hateful eyes, cursing him with gritted teeth.
Kai sighed inwardly. As he'd thought, the One-Cut Killer failed to send the demon to the afterlife.
His face showed nothing, though. It looked like ice and wind at the same time.
Kai lifted his sword and pointed to the distant horizon on his right. The demon's eyes followed the sword, and saw the golden sky, gaining color with every next moment. His eyes widened.
With one loud pop, his hands regenerated. "You weak!" he gritted his teeth, gave Kai a last look, and ran off, vanishing in the thick wilderness that was still dark.
Kai sheathed his swords and turned around.
The sword penetrated his stomach with a bloody squelch.
Kai looked down.
An edgeless sword was running through and through just above his waist, left to his navel.
Its hilt was tied with a rope made of torn pieces of haori, a few butterflies still visible on the bloody white distinctively.
The other end of this cloth rope was a few meters away from him, in the hands of the figure kneeling on the ground, and watching him with the same disgust and anger as the demon.
Even at the death's door, the female Hashira seemed to have enough cunning to kill him.
"You will go nowhere," she told him, blood seeping out of her mouth. "Burn in the sun, demon."
She wrapped the other end around her hand and tugged at the rope.
Kai was already feeling an intense burning sensation coursing through him.
The Wisteria Poison, he knew. And now, with this tug, he felt like a hooked fish.
Kai realized the sword must be hooked at the point, like a stinger. With this realization, he finally got to know which Hashira she was.
"Shinobu Kocho," Kai said, ignoring the pain, smiling. "The Insect Hashira."
Her eyes were dead enough to not show the shock in her heart, her hair oiled with blood, and stuck to her face.
On Kai's right, from the wilderness, the rest of the Demon Slayers dashed out.
Kai looked at them. Inosuke, Zenitsu, Tanjiro, and another Hashira, Giyu, all walked out one after another.
"SHINOBU-SAN!" Tanjiro cried.
Giyu unsheathed his sword, eying Kai with his emotionless eyes.
Inosuke was propped up on Zenitsu's shoulder, his chest bruised and caved in. Zenitsu was literally crying, his gaze lingering on the fallen Hashira.
Nobody moved, though. Even from afar, Kai's fate was set in their eyes.
After arriving in the Random World, Kai had yet to see the day.
He had fought the Demon Slayers in the gray evening under the thick clouds, and then he had spent two days in the cave.
This was his first time feeling the warmth of the morning sun.
The golden-red sun peeked over the horizon, its light engulfing the entire world. A wind picked up, then, traveling its way up to the cliff.
Kai's white hair glowed gold as they danced in the wind, the sunlight making his eyes shine like two brilliant, many-colored pearls.
The world gawked at the sight stupidly, and so did the demon slayers.
Kai smiled at them, a smile full of gentleness.
His spine was still straight, ignoring the intense loss of blood.
With slow steps, he walked towards the Hashira, her mouth open under the perplexing sight.
…
If he was a demon, then there was nothing more majestic than his presence.
If he was a man, then he was worthy to be called an emperor.
If he was a god, then he was full of mercy and love.
His gaze was a golden, depthless ocean of royal dignity.
And his walks were an adventure in antiquity!
…
Kai crouched in front of the tiny figure of Shinobu, her face indistinguishable from the blood. Only her eyes were visible, two dead pupilless purple pearls.
There was a beauty about her, he saw; a defiant and ferocious one.
Cersei had sung many songs to him, and those words came naturally to him, like a bitter-sweet, spicy wine. He lifted his hand and put it on her head, letting it fall on her face, tracing the soft, beaten curves of her cheeks.
He sang and the birds chirped along with him.
…
I loved a maid as fair as summer,
with sunlight in her hair.
…
She looked at him, and he looked at her. The words played themselves in their eyes, full of longing and forgotten memories.
And their hearts skipped a beat.
Heart Rhythm - Resonance of Appearance!
Shinobu's eyes closed instantly. Losing blood had finally made her lose her consciousness, and if not taken care of with meticulous proficiency, then she would die within a day. No doubt.
Kai wasn't faring better, either.
Purple-colored web-like veins were running over his body, telling of deadly poison.
Kai scooped her up in his embrace and looked at the Demon Slayers.
The shock of him standing straight under the sun was still visible on their faces. No Demon had survived the sunlight. No one.
What was this blue-skinned being, if not a demon?
"Put both of them down and come with us," Giyu shouted, almost on the verge of exploding towards Kai. "You have nowhere to run."
Kai shook his head.
He backed up, nearing the cliff's edge with every next step. By the time they realized what was happening, Kai had already stepped on the last rock. One more step and he would fall hundreds of feet.
Even Kai, despite his Stats, wouldn't survive such a fall.
Not unless he switched to Dementor's Blood Essence, but it would defeat the entire purpose as the Sponsors were still watching him. Not to mention, he was losing HP by second now, his strength abandoning him with it.
However, there was one thing he could now which he couldn't have before.
"WAIT!!!" the Demon Slayers shouted, and ran towards him. Giyu, especially, was like a bullet, as he advanced, tearing the morning chilly air.
Kai pushed himself off the cliff, the shouts of demon slayers dying under the roar of the wind gusts shooting toward the sky.
Suddenly, Kai lost a great chunk of Mana, Breath, and tiny part of his HP.
A brilliant, blinding yellow blob of light shot toward the brightening sky along with the winds.
There, high in the sky, it hung for a moment like a pale, yellow star whose light had yet to fade away with the morning.
They all looked at it. Stunned.
