(M/N) = Mother's name
(F/N) = Father's name

(Y/N) Pov

"I'm (M/N) and (F/N) son, do you remember?"

He touches his chin seemingly deep in thought. He snapped his finger.

"Ahhh, (Y/N). You're so grown up that I don't recognize you anymore." Said Haruto ojii-san

"It's ok, ojii-san," I said

"So why are you here?" He asked me

"Ojii-san, you have to believe me what I'm going to say," I said and he nodded

"I'm a demon slayer and there's a rumor a demon is lurking around here"

His eyes widened by my statement. I noticed it and was skeptical about it for a second but I paid it no mind.

"Then what should I do?" He asked me.

"I want you to give me some information about the missing that's been happening around here"

He nodded. He leads me to a table. He gestures me to sit on one of the chairs. I sat down.

"For a couple of days now, people have been missing constantly that I'm worried for my own safety," He said with a worried expression plastered on his face

"Do you know the range of age of the people that have been missing now?"

"For all, I know kids and adults are the ones that are missing"

"Hmm, I see..."

"Well, ojii-san I have to go patrol now"

"Yes, be careful"

"Yep"

I opened the front door, the rain has stopped and the sun is about to set. Perfect timing. I run around looking for suspicious activity going around, but there was none. So I decided to head back for now.

"Hmm, this is weird..." The sun has set and the moon rises. I am in front of Haruto Ojii-San shop, just when I want to touch the doorknob, I sense a faint demonic presence inside

"SOMEBODY ONCE!" You shouted as you kick open the door, breaking the door in the process. The situation right now feels too familiar. Then you heard munching.

"What the hell..." You whispered to yourself as you tiptoed on the wooden floor. You opened the door to a room. There is a silhouette at the center of the room. I slowly walk over to it.

...

...

...

"Blood demon art...." You heard someone said.

"SPIKE TRAP!!"

Suddenly, the walls started shaking and fall apart and morph to what seemed like a spike.

"!!!" You are shook, you are not expecting an ambush. The spike started to close in on you like a bear trap. You immediately take out your sword and do a form.

First form: Void Flash

You dashed out of the room and break through the wall and end up outside of the house, you barely dodge that trap, that room is destroyed.

"Who the fuck..."

"Ho? You got out of there rather quickly, (Y/N)."

You look on the roof and your eyes widened.

"O-Ojii-San?" You asked him with a saddened and shocked expression.

"Yes, KONO HARUTO DA!" He exclaimed as he points at himself

His features are still there but more demonic. You feel like your eyes are going to pop out any second.

"W-When did you became a demon?"

"Hmmm" He put his fingers on his chin

"Longer than I can remember" He smirks

"If I could have stop you from going home at that time, I could have been a lower demon. Ahh~ looking at you is already making me mouth-watering."

"Why me? Why don't you ate other people huh?" You said with visible anger on your face

"Cause your blood is rare, the smell itself is intoxicating to me."

"?" You stand there wondering what the fuck he's talking about

Suddenly, out of nowhere, he appears behind you.

"!!!" You look back and backflip

'Woah, okay he's dangerous'

You tighten your grip on your sword.

'This is gonna be challenging'

He ran at you fast, you took a deep breath.

Void Breathing, Third form: Abyssal Phantom!

You swung your sword horizontally and vertically multiple times with immense speed, creating an illusion that it's a deep void, you are about to slash him away but he simply deflected it and punch you in the guts.

You flew away a couple of meters from that. You clutch your stomach and groan in pain.

'Ow ow ow ow, fuck, fuck, fuck, fuck' You mentally cursed to yourself

Suddenly, there is a stinging pain in your abdomen. You take a look and a lot of spikes came out from it.

You screamed in agony

"Hahahahha!! My abilities are awesome right?" He approaches you

"My blood can form into spikes if it infused with another person's blood and since your blood are rare the process is much faster! Oh~ you smell amazing!"

"NOW I DON'T HAVE A PROBLEM TO TAKE YOU DOWN, DIE!!"

He lunged at you ready to end you. Then time moves in slow motion.

'Is this it? Am I going to die?'

"Get up!"

'Huh?'

"Get up and fight!"

Then your instinct immediately kicks in, you rolled away immediately just as the demon about to destroy your brains out. The ground cracked as dust and dirt flew up in the air. You sat up and cough blood. You take out all of the metal that is in your abdomen. You winced in pain

"That's all of it" You take the blade that's lying next to you and stood up shakily.

He turned around and say

"Blood demon art: Spike armor"

Then his body is engulfed in metal. He took a stance and you too took a stance.

Both of you stared at each other. After a few seconds, he dashed at you.

"WRRRRRYYYYYYYY!!!!"

Breath of the Void
