     The next day, Kiyomi received a new mission, so she had to go. Even though her ribs were still not healed, she was dedicated to doing her job.

   "Ma'am, how much was for the stay? I'll pay you.", Kiyomi smiled.

  "It's okay, you demon slayers pay us by killing demons. We are thankful.", The lady smiled back.

  "But-.. Thank you, ma'am! I'm also thankful that you take care of demon slayers like me. Goodbye! Thank you again!", she hesitated at first before thanking the lady. She bowed and went on her way as the lady waved goodbye.

   "Fly me to the moon, and let me play among the stars...", The lady mumbled a song with a low voice. "What a beautiful voice she has..."

   "Caw! New mission! At Mt.  Natagumo!", Snow reports.

  'Wait.. the spider demon?? B-but I wanted to go with Tanjiro!', Kiyomi panicked internally while she kept running.

  At the destination...

   "We made it...", Kiyomi panted. She was running for many miles and never rested. A normal person would have fainted, luckily she trained her body, despite it still being weak.

   They stopped at a dark forest.

  Kiyomi knew what was gonna happen, so she looked for little webs on her body if there was.

  She sighed in relief when there was none and went into the forest.

  "So there are five demons... I'll go to the sister first. If I die, Tanjiro will finish them later... And I will go back to my world... I never knew my time here would be short.", Kiyomi sighed in disappointment as she continued to run.

  Kiyomi then spotted the oldest spider demon brother and went to attack.

   "Breath of Winter, Second form: Ice spikes", Kiyomi swung her sword as spikes made of ice formed. The spikes flew towards the demon and stabbed his limbs.

   "Another slayer? Haah.. You just keep coming, huh? No worries, you will die just like the others.", The spider demon smiled creepily as he regenerated.

   He spat purple liquid towards Kiyomi. She already knew it was poison and dodged it.

   "Breath of Winter, Full focus, Second form: Ice Spikes", Kiyomi stood straight and swung her sword as ice spikes formed again and flew towards the demon.

   The demon was once again stabbed and smiled. "You know that won't kill me, right? You idio-.. Haah?! Why am I not regenerating?!", He angrily shouted.

  "That was supposed to make you unable to regenerate, not kill.", Kiyomi smirked.

   "Breath of Winter, Sixth form: Grenade Snowballs", Kiyomi swung her sword, forming snowballs as to which it flew to the demon, which he simply dodged.

   "Explode.", Kiyomi muttered as the snowballs exploded, pushing the demon on the ground.

   "Pfft, you think those were ordinary snowballs? How silly.", she shook her head.

   Kiyomi went near the demon but was suddenly stopped when she felt a slight sting on her feet.

  It was a big spider with a human head. It had bitten her.

  'Oh no. This is poisonous!', Kiyomi panicked as she kicked the spider away and ran towards the spider demon.

  'If I die I might as well bring you with me!', she thought while swinging her sword towards the spider demon's neck, forgetting that she was too fragile to even cut it, but she still tried. The demon dodged and attacked.
