Chereads / Let's Not Fall In Love ( InuYasha) / Chapter 32 - The Demon Plague

Chapter 32 - The Demon Plague

" Sesshomaru is to be wed of a princess from the Tohka clan," Myoga, a male flea demon who acted as a servant for Inuyasha, provided him with information on current events, foes, and the shards of the Shikon no Tama.

These demons are extremely powerful, are virtually immune to normal methods of human attacks, and normally have a number of weaker demons, who serve under them are colossal demons of enormous size and insurmountable power, able to lay waste to entire regions. While most demons keep to themselves, only attacking what they need for resources or food, daiyokai often have ambitions of power and conquest, leading to wars between them.

Yua the princess of the Tohka clan and people says that she has remarkable beauty. She's a daiyokai, a great demon, and quite well known for her ruthless attitude, and pleasure for violence. The Tohka clan became rulers over vast territories, commanded armies of lesser demons, and constantly waged wars against each other. A demonic race of creatures that resembles dogs with the ability to shapeshift from dog to human.

" Oh, I see. That's good for him! Now I don't need to break the curse, after all." She force a smile on her face and said jokily. It was almost laughable that she even dreamt of a future with such a demon.

" About time! He can stop harassing Kagome's friend, I don't care to know about Sesshomaru affairs" InuYasha complained.

Yuki has fallen deep for the dog demon but before the love could blossom it wilted. She was speechless and lost for words with a shocked expression on her face. She compares herself to a peasant in the eyes of a Lord. She was from another world and had no title, nothing going for her so technically she's a nobody. She could not stop thinking about him and remember each touch he planted on her body leaving a trail, and her soft moans. It kept playing in her head like a broken player stuck on replay of them making love. His claws cup on hips as he thrust aggressively with each stroke. While she whimpered and soft moans escape from her mouth.

" Are you okay, Yuki? You look a little pale" Sango questioned and place a hand on her shoulders.

"Oh- I'm just shocked that's all." She spoke and sounded as normal as possible but on the inside, she was breaking apart.

" Quit yer yapping and let's go." InuYasha railed at the others.

" Lord InuYasha, wait up for me," Myoga said and didn't want to get left behind.

Yuki spends time improving her skills and learning to control the spiritual powers she hasn't tapped into her full potential but Kagome taught her the robes when Yuki shot her first sacred arrow they were happy and just started to get along as friends. She fought demons with her sword and sometimes with her bows and arrows. She caught on relatively fast and buried on feelings into wiping the existence of demons. She wanted to make a name for herself even though it was a start she wanted her name to hold some type of weight.

She carried buckets of water from the woods and found an injured person on the ground. To her surprise, it was an unconscious dog demon.

" He must've got into a fierce battle." As much as she wanted to hate him and let the demon suffer she couldn't bring herself to do it. She checked his temperature and he was burning up. She did what she was taught when it comes to taking care of humans so taking care of demons shouldn't be that much different.

She would sneak out into the woods and take whatever she needed for the village to attend to his wounds. She place down a pillow and let his head down as she move strands of hair out of his face but his condition worsen.

" Demons been dying in this area and it made living easier for us," a villager said and Yuki was eavesdropping on their conversation.

" Without having to kill them thank god for the demon plague." the woman villager was grateful and almost way praising.

She went to the temple and mentioned it to the others.

" Oh, the demon plague it happen in ancient times from viruses was found in the meat that the demons devoured and came in contact with their infected blood," Myoga explained that at that time, it almost wiped out the demon race nobody knew what it was and was afraid but a witch use many samples to experiment on and discovered that a flower that can cure a demon mixed with a pint of human blood from a priestess.

" I promised to help heal the injured," Yuki told the others before leaving out of the temple. She got a map from the local villagers and went on a journey to find the flower. It took half of the day but it was protected by demons that claimed to be the guardians. She barely defeated the demons and she had the flower in her hand. She had scratches and bruises from the fight, and it left her with a limp.

She sat down and crushed up the flowers in a wooden bowl. The only priestess she knew was Kagome and asking her was impossible. She places the blade on her arm and made a cut deep enough as blood gushed into the bowl. She quickly pressed a dry cloth on the wound to stop the bleeding. She winched in pain and hope that her plan worked she technically was a priestess in her past life and she tapped into her spiritual powers so that has to count for something.

She still cares deeply about Sesshomaru even though he is to be wed and it broke her heart but she is willing to do anything for him even if it cost her life. Perhaps, she was in love. She left and went back to the others she didn't even stay until he woke up. She had faith that he was still alive and as long as he is well she can keep him in her heart.
