"Doma!"
At this moment, Shinobu was gritting her teeth, glaring fiercely at Doma standing before her. If it weren't for him, how could she have suffered in sadness and despair for so long? If it weren't for him, how could she have died? How could Kanao's eyes have lost their light?
Shinobu could no longer hold back her rage.
"Dance of the Bee Sting: True Flutter!!"
With a swift motion, she plunged her poisoned rapier viciously into the enemy!
On the other side, Kanae wasn't just watching. She drew her sun wheel sword and also slashed at Doma.
"Breath of Flowers, Fourth Form: Crimson Hanagoromo!!!"
In an instant, the sisters' combined attack struck Doma directly. But Doma, being the second strongest, took the attack seriously. He knew that if he didn't counter now, it would be the end for him.
"Blood Demon Art: Barren Hanging Garden!"
Doma frantically waved his fan, and a flurry of frost-laden attacks struck the sisters. He had once used this move to neutralize Kanae's strongest attack and now, he used it again to block Kanae's strike. The attack hit but wasn't strong enough to kill him. Within mere seconds, Doma fully recovered.
With a ferocious smile, Doma looked at the two sisters.
"Hehe… Is this the extent of your strength? If this is all you've got, you still can't kill me!"
At this moment, Doma's arrogance was at its peak—and with good reason. After all, he was holding his own against two Hashira. It was something to be proud of, but then...
"They might not be able to kill you, but what about me?"
Alexander's voice suddenly echoed in Doma's ears, making his pupils shrink. Just as Doma turned his head, a fierce flame descended upon him!
"Dragon's Breath!!!"
"AH!!! AH!!!"
Doma screamed in agony as the dragon's breath engulfed him. Although demons are nearly invincible except against sunlight, this wasn't the world of Demon Slayer. In this universe, there are powers that can strip a demon of their regenerative abilities—and Dragon's Breath was one of them. Even if Doma had managed to recover, the overwhelming power would have reduced him to ashes again.
"Ah!!! Alexander!!! Muzan-sama will avenge me! Just you wait!!!"
Finally, Doma was reduced to ashes, his figure disappearing from the world forever.
"Ding Dong, congratulations to the master for killing Doma. You have earned 5000 points."
"Well, a reward—not bad."
Alexander nodded slightly, then turned his attention to the sisters standing beside him. Their eyes were filled with excitement as they looked at him. Alexander could tell their hearts were anything but calm right now.
If he could read minds, he would know that the sisters' affection for him had skyrocketed at that moment.
"Alexander, thank you!"
Shinobu threw herself into Alexander's arms, tears streaming down her face. Although she was only 19 and still a student in this world, she had endured more than anyone should at her age. But now, she could finally breathe a sigh of relief. The demon she hated was turned to ash by Alexander's dragon breath. If Alexander said he could help defeat Muzan, then it must be true.
Kanae gently chided her, "Come on, just cry a little, look, Alexander's clothes are all wet."
She knew what her strong little sister had gone through all these years. But now, things might finally be looking up for them.
"Um, boss, about my issue…"
Deidara's voice suddenly interrupted. Alexander glared at him with an irritated glance. Couldn't he see the atmosphere?
Sighing, Alexander replied, "Go to the next room and talk to Gilgamesh. Tell him I sent you. Got it?"
"Got it! No problem!"
Deidara quickly ran to the villa next door. He wasn't stupid—who would want to stay in the basement when they could live in a mansion? Besides, doesn't researching the art of explosions require funding? Those poor villains from the Villain Alliance couldn't provide the resources he needed.
As Deidara fantasized about his bright future, he didn't notice the owl quietly watching him from the side…
