Nezuko was laying on the floor exhausted, Rui's headless body laid a few feet away from Nezuko,
'My field of vision is shrinking, It's getting hard to see. Was I too reckless with my breathing? I have to shake this off, I have to go help Y/n and Inosuke'.

Nezuko looked around to find Tanjiro, who was also lying on the floor a few feet away from Nezuko. Nezuko started to crawl over to Tanjiro. Ruin's headless body started to stand up. Ruin pulled on some strings which lifted up his head,
"You thought that you defeated me? You sad fool were you happy in your delusions? I cut my own head off with my own strings way before you could cut my head off".

Ruin's head was now in his hand,
"Enough of this, I'll kill you and your brother. It's been a while since I've been this pissed off" Rui attached his head to his body,
"How sad this really is sad, I got this mad sometime before, but it's been so long I don't remember it".

Ruin's facial expression turned furious,
"Say, how come you didn't get burned? The flames... only burned me and my threads! I don't know if that was your brother's power or what, but I'm thankful. I'm so irritated that I can cut you to pieces without any regret".
'Demon Blood Art: Murderous Eye Basket'.

Nezuko was surrounded by a circle of Rui's threads which moved closer to cut Nezuko's skin. She squeezed her eyes shut,
'Don't panic! It'll throw off my breathing. Stay calm! Stay calm!'. A figure jumped over and cut the threads surrounding Nezuko. Nezuko looked behind her,
'Someone's here... who...? Zenitsu...?'.

"You did a good job holding your ground until I came. Leave the rest to me" Nezuko recognised Giyuu and just stared at him in shock for a moment. Rui glared at Giyuu,
'There's another one?! It's like these scum exist just to interfere with me!',
'Blood Demon Art: Cutting Thread Rotation'
'Water Breathing Eleventh Form: Dead calm'.

Attack whith was aimed towards broke instantly,
'!? What? What did he do? The threads just unravelled as soon as it entered his area not even a single thread reached him? He managed to cut... my flawless threads? That can't happen. One more time...' Giyuu walked up to Rui and decapitated him.

Ruin's head started to fall to the floor,
'DAMN HIM! CURSES! I'LL KILL HIM! AND THEN I'LL KILL... THOSE SIBLINGS!!' Rui looked in the direction of Nezuko and Tanjiro. Tanjiro was still unconscious while Nezuko was holding onto him. Rui just stared in shock at the two starting to remember his past as human before he became a demon.
