Battle with the demon

I am very excited and anxious because I was going to fight a demon for the first time. Even though he may be weak I can still enjoy it.

The demon was enraged as I had supposedly allowed its prey to escape. He immediately rushed towards me and in the blink of an eye, he was in front of me.

'He is fast' I thought but not fast enough. Before he could even attack and I punched him and he stumbled back a bit.

"Even though you seem weak you have tough skin," I said in a taunting way.

"Y-you. How dare you call me weak? I am definitely going to eat you alive" he said further enraged.

"How you are welcome to try?" I suddenly had a thought, I wonder how will demons taste if I absorb them.

In these ten years, I have become a sort of gourmet. I have been checking how different people with different physiology and blood taste.

I have tasted humans, vampires, zombies but I have never tasted demons.

After I absorbed some humans, the pleasure and strength that I have derived from decreased and decreased now it had become almost non-existent. Now I only absorb them if I have no choice.

Back to the fight, the demon attacked me in a frenzy. I hard time adapting to it as it had four arms. l have never fought anyone with four hands.

But soon I instantly analysed it and memorised its attack pattern. I immediately found a weak spot in its attack pattern punched it.

Even though it noticed my punch, it ignored it as my previous punch only pushed it back a little bit.

As my punch connected into his skin he screamed as he retreated blood flowing from the wound I inflicted. The wound was like a claw of an animal.

It was then it noticed by hand. From it was five claws made from bones sticking out. I manipulated my bones to produce a claw-like structure.

"You, you" it was losing its reason with anger.

'Wow, such a short-tempered fellow, easily provoked, overly arrogant that doesn't have the ability to back it. Let's see how long you can hold'

Tuk tuk tuk. I shot many shrapnel's of bones from the tip of my fingers at a fast speed. They also spin at high velocity gaining more penetrating power. He had a hard time evading as many shrapnel's hit the target.

But the wounds were immediately healed as he calmed down a little. I suddenly noticed something and wanted to confirm it.

"You don't have blood demon art, do you?" I asked with a wide grin. His face immediately lost colour as he again flushed with anger.

"Wow, you really are pretty weak are you?" I further provoked him. He started to blindly attack me now. His four arms and legs were swinging wildly randomly in all directions.

But I easily evaded and blocked all his punches and kicks.

'A demon without blood demon art is pretty weak. Well, since it is the first demon I am fighting I will entertain it'

I concentrated my bones in my hand and formed a drill-like structure. It was spinning rapidly as if it would tear everything to pieces.

"Haha, you demon let's see how you will withstand my, Huitzilin's modo" I said with a crazy laugh. I have always wanted to say it.

I quickly rushed in to attack him with my drilling bone hand. He tried to defend with his hands but it was useless as my drill minced his hand.

"Please don't kill me. I don't want to die"

But soon, he lost his strength as his body was slowly melting.

"W-what is happening to my body" shouted in despair as his body was slowly melting.

"Well, it seems it worked. But it took some time longer than I had expected" my bones contained my cells which digestive acid that melts things at a cellular level. This I how a pillar man absorbs various creatures.

"What?" was the last word the demon uttered as I quickly absorbed him before he fully melted.

His taste was pretty good. It was in a way the same but different from a vampire. I also accessed his memory through his flesh and blood.

His family was wealthy as he lived his life very spoiled and comfortable. He even had a beautiful wife and many mistresses. Until one he was turned into a demon by Muzan on a whim.

Even after turning into a demon, he lived pretty comfortably as he massacred humans without discrimination. To develop his blood demon art he had taken shelter in this village and was constantly eating. (AN - A demon without a tragic backstory is bound to be weak)

When demons continue to eat more humans and evolve, they eventually obtain a blood demon art unique to themselves.

'Due to the concentration of Muzan's blood being lower in him I can't access any memories of Muzan.

If Muzan can control every demon, then he should have known that I absorbed one of his demons right? I am not too sure'

I left the village immediately while it was night as some slayers are bound to get attracted here. Since the survivors will definitely spread the word about the demon and me.

'Maybe I should have killed them underground'

I ran around aimlessly without any destination.

'I should probably have some sort of base where I can't take shelter from the sun while I search for the stone in Japan'

According to the information I have gathered, Japan at this time was very chaotic. Ōnin war ended a few years ago plunging into the Sengoku period.

An era where various clans, samurai, religious people fought for the control of Japan. It was a period of constant warfare. Many young and ambitious youth volunteered in the war to gain honour.

So, there are many abandoned castles and barracks everywhere. I could make one of them my base.

The stage is now all set in the land of demons, Japan.

Do you want him to become a demon and have access to blood demon art?
