Chapter 63: Doma
"OH! A Girl! You look young and tasty! Thankfully I was sent here!"
Even though he got no response the demon didn't care as he continued talking in a carefree manner
"Hello there, Very nice to meet you, My name is Doma!"
By the time Doma finished introducing himself, Saigai had already stood and then held her necklace which instantly turned into a sword with a scarlet blade
"Whoa!"
Looking at the sudden appearance of the sword, Doma looked at it with great interest
But after looking at it for a while, He felt a creepy aura full of menace originating from it, but then he quickly dismissed it and continued speaking
"Oh! Not the talkative type are you?"
"I am the founder of the 'Eternal Paradise Cult', My duty is to make all my worshipers, including myself happy!"
"Want to join my cult?"
Still getting no response Doma shook his head and smiled gently
"I'll take that as agreeing, Don't worry I'll save you soon"
Even though Doma has been acting friendly and is talking in a calm and gentle manner, he is actually a complete psychopath
The concept of human emotions are a foreign thing to him, this is true even when he was a human
This is revealed when his mother murdered his father and then proceeded to kill herself all while being observed by Doma when he was a child
Doma at the time didn't show any sign of grief or shock but instead complained that their blood made the room stuffy
Moreover, This demon also has the disturbing habit of primarily eating young women which is also the reason why he was so happy when he saw Saigai
Most of his cult followers are made of women, and the way he 'saves' them and makes them 'happy' is by mercilessly murdering and devouring
By doing so he believes that he is 'saving' them from the suffering they feel in this world and is allowing them to 'live' forever 'happily' inside his body
Of course, only he himself knows if that's what he is truly thinking or if it is just an excuse
But Saigai didn't care about any of this as she already had enough of his chit-chat
So without letting him continue his speech, she rushed forward in his direction, quickly slashing at him, her sword leaving a scarlet trail of light behind
*Swish*
*Cliingg*
Quickly reacting, Doma blocked the incoming attack with his weapons which are a pair of sharp golden-colored fans
But unbeknown to him, the moment their weapons made contact, some scarlet-colored aura passed to him through this connection
This eerie aura was large in quantity and immediately covered his body
*Swish*
Following this Saigai then started attacking again, her slashes were unpredictable barely allowing any time for Doma to defend
As the two continued to clash, some wounds started appearing on the demon
And as time went on, those wounds became more and more as he was quickly and swiftly losing ground
Noticing this, Doma immediately used his Blood Demon Art, Cryokinesis, freezing the surroundings and causing Saigai to jump away from him, creating some distance
Finally getting some breathing time, Doma looked back at what had just occurred
'What was that?!'
Following the first clash, and as the two started exchanging blows, he quickly fell into a disadvantage
But what was absurd was that as the fight continued, he started making mistakes, very stupid ones
One time, he nearly let go of his weapon in the middle of a clash
There was also this time when he nearly slipped just as he was about to avoid an attack
And another time, his hand actually cramped just as he was about to raise it to block an incoming attack which is absurd considering his constitution as an upper-rank demon
Doma isn't a mindless demon, he is actually a very cold and calculating individual that possesses an extremely keen intellect
By now, he had already discovered that there is a problem, it's just that he couldn't put his hands on it
'Moreover...'
Looking down at his weapon and the wounds inflicted on him, a frown appeared on his face
Both his weapons were damaged, but amazingly the damage didn't look like it was caused by a clash between weapons, They actually looked eroded as if a thousand calamities fell on them
As for his wounds, they weren't healing, and not just that, they were actually getting bigger by the moment, as if they were also getting constantly eroded, similar to what happened to his weapons
Even though Doma is masochistic, he didn't like what was happening, mainly because he couldn't comprehend it
So looking at Saigai in front of him he quickly became wary of her
And Saigai also noticed this change, but she didn't care, all she wanted was to end this battle as quickly as possible
Different from Lorien who likes to play a bit with his opponent and sometimes limits himself to have some fun, Saigai likes to end things quickly
So the moment they started clashing, she immediately started using her ability without delay
With every clash she had with Doma, she would send the power of 'Doom' into both his body and weapon, This caused him to become very unlucky and start making mistakes
Moreover, with every wound and damage she inflicted, she didn't forget to leave a good amount of her power there to prevent him from regenerating and also to increase the damage
This also acted as a boost for the Immortal Inhibition power which her Sword already had and made things worse
If things went on like this, It wouldn't take long for this battle to end
Then, just as Saigai was about to resume attacking, the others present at the house finally made their way here
It appears that the noise caused by the battle between her and Doma alerted them, so they quickly came to check
The first to arrive was Nezuko followed by Shinobu and finally Kanao
Looking at this, Doma was elated, even in his current state he didn't forget to stay in 'character'
"Hey! More young girls"
But before could finish talking, Saigai interrupted him as she started another round of offense, she really didn't want to hear any more of it
This time though, Doma was smart enough to avoid direct clashes with her, as he quickly used his Blood Demon Art and started attacking her from a distance
Seeing this, Nezuko who had just arrived also joined in the battle and used her ability, Pyrokinesis
And as a consequence, waves of pinkish flames roared toward Doma who was dumbfounded seeing this
"Blood Demon Art??!"
