I simultaneously traverse countless worlds

Meanwhile, Shinobu Kocho, Kanae Tsuyuri, and Mitsuri Kanroji worked together seamlessly. When Shinobu gave the other two a look, they instinctively pulled out the remaining short javelins and launched another ranged attack. They were fully utilizing their own strengths, just as the training taught by the demon god Li Mo had instructed them, instead of foolishly charging in headfirst.

In the next instant, the three short javelins that came whistling through the air crashed into a barrier formed by a whirlwind. The flying demon, which seemed to be dying, suddenly raised its head. Its four blood-red eyes, which were already open, were particularly terrifying. The hatred in its eyes as it looked at Shinobu and the others was undisguised. However, it dodged very quickly and spontaneously. Relying on one hand, one foot and two newly grown wings, it moved as fast as a lame spider, avoiding the three short javelins that had been slightly deflected.

Well, the flying demon is quite intelligent. Having devised a sustainable, exploitative strategy, it has already realized through the brief battle that the opponent's weapon was incredibly damaging, rendering even the demon's super regenerative abilities useless. Naturally, it dares not take the opponent's weapon head-on again and even wants to escape immediately rather than fight to the end against a well-prepared opponent.

Before the flying demon could get up and escape, Shinobu Kocho suddenly stomped on the ground and burst into speed, directly slashing through the whirlwind barrier with her sword. Her long-handled naginata was aimed at the flying demon's head!

"You all should die!!!"

Seeing Shinobu Kocho blocking his way, and with two other beautiful girls about to surround him, the flying demon, whose soul was damaged and made him exceptionally violent, recklessly unleashed his Blood Demon Art, and more than a dozen tornadoes fell like a natural disaster.

Even though those dozen or so tornadoes weren't very large—the largest one was only four or five meters in diameter—they could still easily shred a strong bull into a bloody mess. When they hit the ground, they were like cannonballs, and the flying debris and mud posed a significant threat to ordinary people. The flying demon was taking this opportunity to escape. It hadn't forgotten that it had been seriously injured by another woman. She hadn't seen it just now, but she might be following it soon.

However, before the flying demon could take off again, the several tornadoes that were blocking Shinobu Kocho were broken apart. Shinobu Kocho, holding the naginata, seemed to be shrouded in invisible flames as she rushed to the flying demon in an instant and stabbed it directly into the opponent's head!

"The 9th evil spirit has been successfully defeated!"

Facing the flying demon she had personally slain, Shinobu Kocho's pretty face revealed a slight smile. She carefully drew her naginata and, seeing the flying demon turn to ashes, she murmured with some delight. This flying demon was the ninth demon she had killed. It could be said that over the past month, Shinobu Kocho was the most active and successful demon hunter among the three beautiful girls.

Shinobu's smugness didn't last long before Kanao Tsuyuri and Mitsuri Kanroji ran over. They were somewhat disappointed to see the flying demon that had turned to ashes, but they quickly recovered and, together with Shinobu, observed the scene and returned the way they came!

……

"Mo, sister, we've already slain that flying demon!"

A few kilometers away, at the entrance of a cave, Shinobu Kocho saw that the Oni-god Li Mo and Kanae Kocho were still waiting there. Her beautiful eyes lit up and she flew over like a swallow returning to its nest, calling out affectionately to the Oni-god Li Mo and her sister.

At this moment, Shinobu Kocho was completely different from her decisive and ruthless self in the previous battle. Like a little girl clinging to her older sister and lover, she affectionately circled around Kanae Kocho and Rimo Kocho, making Kanae Kocho feel amused but unable to refuse. She gently hugged her younger sister and then stood next to Rimo Kocho. Rimo Kocho also kissed Shinobu Kocho tenderly and praised the beautiful girl.

Meanwhile, Kurihana Kanao and Kanroji Mitsuri, who had returned with him, were not forgotten by the demon god Li Mo. He hugged the two beautiful girls and praised them affectionately, making their hearts beat faster and their pretty faces blush with an alluring blush!

"Alright! Now that we've successfully eliminated the evil spirits, we plan to deal with the more powerful ones. Kanae, you need to prepare for the battle against the Twelve Demon Moons!"

Upon seeing the arrival of the three beautiful girls, the demon Li Mo, who had been cuddling with them, straightened his expression. He clapped his hands, drawing the girls' attention, and while speaking to Kocho Kanae, he explained using the [Demon Compass] in his hand: "Compared to ordinary demons or demons who possess blood demon arts, the Twelve Demon Moons and the Demon King pose the greatest threat. Let's deal with the most recent Twelve Demon Moon first..."

Shinobu Kocho, Kanao Tsuyuri, and Mitsuri Kanroji had no objection to what the demon Li Mo said. The ordinary demons and demons who knew blood demon arts that they faced were actually inferior to the top combat power of the Twelve Demon Moons.

Don't be fooled by how easily Shinobu and her friends surrounded and killed Upper Moon Six, Daki and Gyutaro. That's because Daki and Gyutaro had never seen a weapon that could damage their souls before. Like the demons who had just experienced the first kill, they were severely injured from the start. It was only after the three pretty girls, who were already quite skilled, managed to surround and kill Upper Moon Six that they were able to succeed. However, without their own equipment to protect them, they would have been easily killed by the enemy.

In this regard, the Demon Slayer Corps, which has been entangled with the demons for thousands of years, is definitely the most qualified to speak. Compared to the demons' superhuman regenerative abilities and extraordinary powers such as Blood Demon Arts, the Demon Slayer Corps relies on the Nichirin Blade and Breathing Techniques to fight tenaciously. It can be said that if many Demon Slayer Corps swordsmen had a good enough set of protective equipment, they would probably not be killed by the demons' near-mutually devastating fighting style, or avoid the fate of death when the demons wanted to take them down with them.

In fact, the Demon Slayer Corps did consider equipping themselves with armor. The problem was that in Japan until the recent Warring States period, most people were equipped with leather or bamboo armor. Metal armor such as Nanban armor or Dai-gai was extremely rare. Moreover, wearing metal armor would greatly affect the Demon Slayer Corps swordsmen. A Demon Slayer Corps swordsman who was not agile enough might die even faster when facing demons. Over time, they simply went into battle without armor and with their blades.

Upon hearing Guishen Li Mo's words, Kocho Kanae smiled and nodded in agreement. Kocho Shinobu and the other two looked at their leader with some envy, knowing that Kocho Kanae's current strength was something they could hardly fathom!

Chapter 29: Defeating the Upper Moon Demon Doma!

The Eternal Bliss Sect!

This small religion, whose name alone suggests it's not a legitimate entity, is a secret sect located in a remote town in Japan.

It should be said that the rampant spread of various bizarre religions in Japan in the future is by no means without reason. Small sects like the Eternal Bliss Cult, which are not good things, would have been key targets for crackdown in China when the government was still stable. Even in the 21st century, their open appearance would not be allowed.

Unfortunately, in Japan, religion is something used to numb the already impoverished lower classes. In addition, during the period of ignorance, the Japanese common people believed in all sorts of strange things, which led to the development of Shintoism. As a result, on the surface, Japan is dominated by Buddhism and Shintoism (after the opening of the country by the Black Ships, Japan allowed open proselytizing, and the obstacles were removed after the end of World War II). In reality, Japan has all sorts of strange and bizarre sects. Even in the world of Demon Slayer, people in remote areas of Japan may believe in some evil gods.

Similarly, the Eternal Paradise Cult fully embodies the characteristics of the Demon Slayer world. This small cult with only two hundred or so followers has been controlled by Doma, who was transformed into a demon, since the Warring States period hundreds of years ago. Originally, Doma was the so-called "Child of God" recommended by the cult, and he became the leader over the past few hundred years. He occasionally eats people and even collects their skulls.

Even though they vaguely knew that the cult leader might be cannibalistic, the followers of the Eternal Bliss Cult were not frightened and fled. Over the centuries, they even spawned a group of fanatical believers who respectfully served Doma, the cannibalistic evil god incarnation (who was actually a demon).

"This woman tastes pretty good... let me chew... it's a pity she's not pregnant..."

In the headquarters of the Eternal Bliss Cult, a handsome young man with white oak hair and rainbow eyes sat in a secluded room with a carefree smile, enjoying his meal by the light of an electric lamp.

At first glance, this handsome young man does give off an otherworldly feeling, unlike ordinary people. However, looking at him gnawing on a piece of a fair woman's arm, along with a large plate in front of him containing a corpse cut into pieces, anyone with normal intelligence would be horrified. Even the most beauty-obsessed girl would probably turn around and run away immediately, without any goodwill towards this handsome young man.

This is the Upper Moon Two of the Twelve Demon Moons, the demon Doma!

As a demon personally transformed by the Demon King Muzan Kibutsuji, it was a demon who had mastered the Ice Blood Demon Art from the beginning. A hundred years ago, it was promoted to Upper Moon Six and then rose all the way to Upper Moon Two. It can be said to be the strongest demon among the Twelve Demon Moons. Even Kokushibo, who is ranked first, may not be able to defeat it.

If that were all, Doma wouldn't be valued so highly by the Demon King Muzan. The real reason that Muzan and the other demons feared him was that Doma, from birth, lacked the emotions that humans should have. The emotions he displayed were all disguised human emotions, and he couldn't understand human feelings. Whether human or demon, he saw humans as a source of regret, and he was there to save them.

As for the method of salvation, it is that the demon Doma will devour humans completely, leaving no trace of their flesh or blood. In this way, they will be able to live forever with him, and he can lead them to salvation. As for the fear and hostility of the humans themselves, the demon Doma will not care at all. He is very picky about the food he chooses, and he likes to eat beautiful women, even pregnant ones.

At this moment, the woman that the demon Doma was eating was the same woman he had previously imitated when humans were in love. He said he would eat her, and she thought it was just a joke, not knowing that the demon was actually going to eat her flesh and blood!

"Huh? What's that sound..."

While enjoying his new food, the demon Doma seemed to sense something was wrong, not truly happy but mimicking the so-called happiness of humans. He put down the human hand that he had already devoured and turned to look in a certain direction.

It must be said that the appearance of the demon Doma at this moment was particularly terrifying. His handsome face, which did not look like that of an ordinary person, was stained with blood. In addition, the heads and corpses of beautiful women were placed on the large plate in front of him. He was exactly like the Shuten-dōji from Japanese mythology who fed on beautiful women. No wonder the small religion that the demon Doma belonged to had many fanatical believers. In the eyes of ordinary Japanese townspeople who did not have much knowledge, he would probably be regarded as an evil god who offered human sacrifices to seek peace.

Suddenly, Doma's eyes transformed into the characters for "Upper Moon" and "Two," and three black shadows that appeared almost simultaneously pierced through the house from the outside. Only when they were aimed at Doma did they hear that extremely piercing whistling sound!

……

Clang!

With a piercing sound like metal tearing apart, the demon Doma, who had been sitting and enjoying a meal like a noble young master, suddenly jumped away. The two gold-embroidered folding fans he was holding suddenly swung forward, deflecting a sharp short javelin by an inch.

Even though the demon Doma reacted very quickly, dodging two of the thrown javelins, he couldn't dodge the remaining javelin, but it did manage to deflect its attack. It only grazed Doma's left shoulder, leaving a shallow wound, and pierced a fist-sized hole in the gold-decorated folding fan in its hand, but it wasn't pierced through the demon's body by the three javelins.

Otherwise, Doma would have to experience firsthand what it's like to be like Upper Moon Six, Daki, Gyutaro, Teki, and many other demons. The damage to their souls is so severe that even demons can't withstand more than a few hits. Moreover, demons' super regenerative abilities are useless against damage to the soul. Upper Moon demons and even the Demon King probably couldn't withstand the damage from these special weapons that specifically target the soul. Even if Doma, the second-highest level demon, were to actually be hit by three short javelins, he probably wouldn't be able to take it and would be at the mercy of his opponent.

Compared to the demons like Hand Demon, Daki, and Gyutaro, who died frustrated because they had never witnessed the destructive power of the degraded version of the Yin-Yang Release weapon, Doma was much luckier. Although he was also injured, his injuries were very minor, just a scratch on his arm. Although his soul was also injured, the impact was not significant, and it could even be said that it did not affect Doma's fighting ability at all.

However, the demon Doma was not angry because of the injury to his soul. He had never had any human emotions before, and he did not even have the thought of "anger". Instead, he was curious like never before because of the pain he felt.

"Hehe, is this what pain is? It's so interesting...so exhilarating..."

Seeing his own injury, the handsome young demon Doma seemed oblivious to the unprecedented pain. Staring at the unhealed, black mark on his arm, he looked up at Kanae Kocho, who had already stepped in, and let out a chilling laugh. Looking at Kanae, he exclaimed, "And you! I've never seen such a beautiful woman. You've aroused an unprecedented appetite in me. You must be incredibly delicious!"

Well, the demon Doma's behavior was chilling. Normal people, including superhumans, would only feel fear or even dread when their souls were touched. Even the previous demons reacted in this way. However, for a monster without human emotions, touching its soul brought it an unprecedented feeling.

Previously, the demon Doma's behavior was actually a simulation of possible human emotions. He himself had no human emotions at all. In other words, no one knew what he would do. Even the Demon King Muzan Kibutsuji and the other members of the Twelve Demon Moons would be strange if they didn't feel any fear towards an Upper Rank demon whose next move was unknown. Even the Demon King Muzan Kibutsuji looked at Doma with disgust and even fear in his heart.

After all, the Demon King Muzan Kibutsuji controlled those demons by relying on the "Progenitor Demon Blood" and their fear of death. However, the demon Doma was completely devoid of normal human emotions. Even as a demon, he showed no fear of death. In Muzan's eyes, he was an unstable factor. If it weren't for Doma's own immense strength and his relatively obedient nature, he would have been replaced long ago.

But for the demon Doma, he himself had no fear of death. However, when the pain that touched his soul and the appearance of the butterfly Kanae that he longed for so much appeared, all the greed and desire of a true human rose up in his heart!

"You Upper Moon Two demon, Doma, you really are disgusting. You should disappear along with this sinful little cult!"

Faced with the words of the demon Doma, Kanae Butterfly, who knew the general situation of the other party, had icy eyes. She looked at the beautiful head and corpse behind him that had fallen to the ground, but whose eyes were still wide open and not closed, as well as the hundreds of female skulls that the demon Doma had placed on the shelves around the secret room. She had no more objection to the demon god Li Mo's method of purging all members of the Eternal Bliss Cult, and she did not hesitate to take action.

Whoosh—hiss!

Before Kanae Butterfly could finish speaking, her beautiful figure flashed and disappeared from the spot. When she reappeared, she was already in front of the demon Doma. Her long naginata was like the scythe of the Grim Reaper, and its sharpness made the demon Doma feel extremely dangerous.

That's right! To his surprise, the demon Doma was actually feeling emotions like "fear" and "anticipation," and not just simulating them, but genuinely experiencing them!

But the demon Doma did not give up. Suddenly, a burst of ice crystals erupted in front of him, forming an ice sculpture in his own likeness. The solid ice sculpture clamped down on the long naginata... Even though Kanae Kocho changed her tactics, Doma, who was using his Blood Demon Art, was far stronger than the two Upper Moon Six demons. The surrounding ice crystals had turned into ice mist, not only enveloping the entire house, but also causing the ice sculpture to continue to grow.

If it were the demon god Li Mo, this level of ice sculpture would be no problem at all; he could crush it and kill the evil demon Doma in a single move. However, Kocho Kanae is not yet capable of this. Although she is almost at the Dan Jin Human Immortal stage of Qi and Blood National Martial Arts, this stage is enough to kill countless people. It is the key to the extraordinary transformation of Qi and Blood National Martial Arts. Kocho Kanae, who is still in the Hua Jin stage, although her naginata thrust is enough to penetrate a steel plate half a meter thick, the ice sculpture continues to harden and thicken, and the naginata is still stuck.

Not only did the ice sculpture block the thrusting naginata, but the temperature in the room surrounded by ice crystals rapidly dropped to a level high enough to cause frostbite. If a typical Pillar-level swordsman of the Demon Slayer Corps were present, the tiny ice crystals they inhaled would be enough to kill them. Moreover, at this moment, the demon Doma's Blood Demon Art created hundreds of ice vines as thick as wrists, whose toughness was comparable to steel, and these ice vines directly enveloped Kanae Kocho.

The problem was that Kanae Kocho was equally decisive. She instantly put down her naginata and grabbed the hilt of her katana. In the next instant, the flash of her blade shattered the surrounding frozen vines, and she charged directly at the demon Doma with her sword in hand!

"That's great! This is exactly the feeling, it's so addictive..."

Seeing that Kanae Kocho had easily cut through the frozen vines created by the Blood Demon Art, and that Kanae Kocho was still charging towards him, Doma the Demon revealed a childlike happy smile on his face. That innocent smile, combined with the bloodstains on the corner of his mouth, gave people only a chilling feeling.

The demon Doma reacted quickly. He waved his two gold-adorned iron fans, and large swathes of lotus-leaf-shaped ice crystals flew around. Before they even touched Kanae, they caused an extreme chill to her skin, as if she were being frozen. However, Kanae was not practicing breathing techniques at this moment. She suddenly unleashed a powerful move of her Qi and Blood National Technique, urging her own Qi and Blood to act like a furnace, instantly dispelling the surrounding chill. Completely unaffected, Kanae drew her sword and slashed down, severing one of Doma's forearms.

This time, feeling the extreme pain in his soul, the demon Doma let out a cry of pain. However, at this moment, he felt no fear or dread. Instead, he became even more excited. Doma looked at Kanae the butterfly and wished he could grab her immediately and feel the ultimate temptation emanating from her flesh and blood. What kind of feeling was it that made her want to live forever with him?

However, Doma knew that if he continued to fight in the cramped room, he would not be able to taste the other's deliciousness or help the other achieve immortality, and he would probably die first. So he did not hesitate to rush out of the house, and Kanae Kocho also chose to chase after him!

……

"Mo, is my sister alright?"

Upon hearing the sounds of battle emanating from the headquarters of the Eternal Bliss Cult, several hundred meters away, Shinobu couldn't help but glance at the cleared area behind her, where the convoy had been moored and where hundreds of elite soldiers stood by. She then looked at the ghost god Li Mo beside her and asked in a low voice.

At this moment, Shinobu Kocho no longer cared about the scene of the countless shadowy soldiers who wiped out the Eternal Bliss Cult, as ordered by the demon god Li Mo earlier. She was more worried about whether her sister would encounter any unexpected situations when facing the Upper Moon Two demon, Doma, alone. She knew that the Upper Moon demons were not weak, and she herself felt that she dared not say that she could definitely defeat the Upper Moon Six demons, Daki and Gyutaro, alone. Without the advantage of weapons and the first strike, she might have been defeated.

Now, Shinobu Kocho is looking at the battlefield where the roaring sounds are rising and pale white ice crystals have condensed into a ten-meter-tall ice bodhisattva statue. She is really worried about whether her sister is in any danger and has a strong urge to go forward and help!

"Don't worry, Ren!"

Hearing Shinobu's worried voice, knowing that she was concerned for her sister's safety, the demon Li Mo was not worried at all. He had complete faith in Kanae's advantage in this battle, and when he looked up at the headquarters of the Eternal Bliss Cult and saw the demon Doma unleashing his ultimate attack, he confidently said to Shinobu and the others, "Right now, a mere Upper Rank demon like Koko can't possibly defeat Kanae!"

The demon god Li Mo, who shares his bed with Kanae Kocho, knows best how strong she is now. He knows that Kanae Kocho's current strength has actually surpassed the peak of her strength in the original Demon Slayer anime.

That was a few years before the start of the original Demon Slayer anime storyline. Kanae Kocho encountered the demon Doma and managed to hold him off until dawn using her self-created "Flower Breathing Technique." However, she was defeated and died because her lungs were frostbitten by ice crystals. Even though Doma didn't use his full strength, it was clear that Kanae Kocho, as the "Flower Pillar" at the time, had already reached a very outstanding level of strength.

Now, under the influence of the demon god Li Mo, Kocho Kanae had long since abandoned the Flower Breathing Technique and switched to Qi and Blood National Martial Arts. After merging with the extraordinary power core, she had already reached the Transformation Stage, making her strength even more outstanding. Compared to her in the original story, she had many advantages. For example, she didn't need to adjust her breathing rhythm to maintain the breathing technique. At her level, Qi and Blood National Martial Arts had already developed the ability of Turtle Breathing. Moreover, when Kocho Kanae's Qi and Blood erupted, she completely ignored the harsh environment brought by the ice crystal mist.

Therefore, with a weapon of greater power and the ability to directly damage the soul, Kanae Kocho's chances of winning the battle against Doma the Demon have significantly shifted in her favor. She now holds the upper hand, and even if any unexpected situation arises, the Demon God Li Mo will still step in to help. Even if Doma the Demon is currently in his unleashed form, it will be useless. If the Demon God Li Mo were to intervene, it would be a devastating blow to him.

Seeing that the ghost god Li Mo was not in a hurry at all, Shinobu Kocho began to calm down. She knew that her lover was still very reliable, and she could clearly see that Kanae Kocho had the upper hand on the battlefield!

Chapter 30: Reversal of Fate

In the headquarters compound of the Eternal Bliss Cult, the demon Doma rushed out and unleashed his ultimate move without hesitation. Countless ice crystals and mists quickly condensed into a giant ice bodhisattva statue over ten meters tall, and then this giant ice bodhisattva began to move.

For people in the world of Demon Slayer, it is hard to imagine such an extraordinary method of condensing ice crystals to become an Ice Bodhisattva. Even though the demon Doma occasionally eats women or even pregnant women, the followers of the Eternal Paradise Cult dare not have the slightest intention of betraying him. They really believe that the demon Doma is the legendary son of God (a man-eating evil god), allowing the demon Doma to live freely in this remote town, which has continued from the Shogunate period to the present.

—In fact, let alone during the Taisho era, most Japanese people with an average education level of around elementary school would kneel and repent in such a situation. Even in America, the most economically developed country in the 21st century, Doma's actions would be enough to establish a small cult and act arrogantly. Moreover, America is never short of vicious criminals who kill or even eat people indiscriminately. It can be said that Doma was born in the wrong place because he did not appear in America in the 21st century. If he had stayed in America in the 21st century, his future would have been much brighter.

Fortunately, Kanae Kocho, as a former Flower Pillar of the Demon Slayer Corps, had seen a great many demons, including dozens who knew Blood Demon Art. Her mental fortitude was exceptional. In addition, the demon god Li Mo had given her a warning beforehand, and knowing that the opponent was skilled at creating ice products with Blood Demon Art, she directly avoided the Ice Bodhisattva Colossus's hand chop and breath attack, and even severed its arm with a single slash.

However, the Ice Bodhisattva statue was obviously soulless. The Ice Bodhisattva statue, which belonged to the puppet controlled by the demon Doma, regenerated its arm in a few breaths. With its ice breath, it tried to grab Kocho Kanae directly, but she dodged it and it failed to succeed!

………………

"Huh? So you're not using breathing techniques. That's really strange..."

Seeing that Kanae was temporarily entangled, the demon Doma finally focused his attention. He looked at his long-lost, painfully injured arm in front of him, feeling the novel sensation brought about by the trauma to his soul. When he noticed Kanae's actions again, he asked with a mixture of realization and curiosity, "I really didn't expect that you're not one of those swordsmen who know breathing techniques. Aren't you part of the Demon Slayer Corps? Or did you appear alone, to gain immortality with me?"

As he uttered these words, the demon Doma unabashedly manipulated the [Water Lily Bodhisattva] he had created to blast it with both fists. Combined with the spreading ice surface, the earth shook violently. The headquarters of the Eternal Bliss Cult was reduced to ruins in a short time, resembling a demolition team using various engineering machines to demolish the buildings.

For Doma, his ultimate move, "Sleeping Lotus Bodhisattva," creates a colossal ice bodhisattva statue powerful enough to smash a Tyrannosaurus Rex into a bloody mess in one blow. Moreover, "Sleeping Lotus Bodhisattva" doesn't possess a soul like a demon, so Kanae's weapon cannot inflict direct soul damage on it. Coupled with the ever-spreading ice crystal mist forming an ice dominance, it can be said that Doma is now showing his true abilities against Kanae, unlike his nonchalant attitude in the original storyline.

After all, in the original Demon Slayer storyline, even when Doma was killed by Shinobu Kocho and Kanae Tsuyuri, he may not have used his full strength. But experiencing the pain of soul trauma like this has aroused Doma's true curiosity, causing him to unleash his full power.

Now, the demon Doma still has the ability to speak, but the soul pain from its previous severed arm has a significant impact on it. Even if it wants to experience that novel feeling of pain and anger, it still cannot escape the pain caused by its wounded soul. That's why it is trying to capture Kocho Kanae while controlling the [Water Lily Bodhisattva], and at the same time, it wants to obtain her... Of course, what the demon Doma wants is Kocho Kanae's flesh and blood, and in this way, to bring her "immortality" together.

Doma the Demon makes no attempt to conceal this fact. Even though he now genuinely experiences human emotions such as pain and fear, his values ​​remain those of a monster who doesn't understand human feelings. What he desires is still to taste Kanae Kocho's flesh and blood, which he finds incredibly tempting. Anything like the idea of ​​achieving immortality together with her is something no intelligent person would believe, yet Doma himself holds such a belief.

As for recognizing that Kanae Kocho is not a member of the Demon Slayer Corps, it's purely because the demon Doma has been familiar with the Demon Slayer Corps for hundreds of years. If she were to use the five basic breathing techniques, he might know them even better than the average Demon Slayer Corps swordsman!

"You devilish Doma, you really are long-winded..."
