"Sotis a single death can save many lives."
— Mikasa Ackerman, Attack on Titan
After dealing with the lesser Demon, they continued their journey.
Soon, they arrived at the deepest part of Mt. Fujikasane.
Roy frowned as soon as they reached the area. The stench was overwhelming.
Demons emitted a foul odor, and the more humans they consud, the stronger the stench.
There was no doubt that the Hand Demon was here.
Roy used his magic to block the unpleasant sll, finally able to breathe a sigh of relief.
"The Hand Demon should be inside," he said, pointing to a cave ahead. "Let's finish this quickly."
Saeko and the other two girls followed suit, using their magic to ward off the stench.
Suddenly, the ground began to tremble.
A massive figure erged from the cave.
Its body was covered in grotesque hands, resembling a fleshy mountain, utterly repulsive.
It was the Hand Demon.
"Jejejee～"
"I've barely awakened, and food has already co to my doorstep!" the Hand Demon cackled, its enormous body lumbering towards them.
Each step caused the ground to shake, a testant to its imnse size.
"So this is the Hand Demon?" Saeko observed with curiosity, her eyes gleaming with anticipation.
"Yes," Makomo said, her gaze cold and resolute. "This is the Demon Urokodaki-sensei captured, the one who murdered our fellow Students." Today, she would avenge them.
The Hand Demon, hearing Makomo's words, turned its attention to her.
Its eyes lit up with glee upon seeing Makomo.
"Ah, another one! My lovely little fox!"
"Tell , fox cub... what year is it in the iji era?"
The Hand Demon didn't attack imdiately. Instead, it taunted Makomo.
"It seems you don't recognize anymore," Makomo said, her eyes icy.
"Oh?" The Hand Demon sounded intrigued.
"Let refresh your mory!"
In a flash, Makomo moved with lightning speed, circling the Hand Demon before returning to her original spot, leaving only an afterimage.
Thwack! Thwack!
All the arms on the Hand Demon's body were severed.
"AAAAAGH!"
The intense pain only registered after its arms fell to the ground. The Hand Demon finally recognized Makomo.
"I rember now! You're that girl I ate before! But... how are you alive? I devoured you!"
The Hand Demon was frantic, its newly regenerated arms scratching at its own body, leaving bloody marks.
It couldn't comprehend how the girl it had eaten was standing before it once again.
The Hand Demon seed to fall into a trance, muttering to itself.
"I rember those two particularly well."
"The strongest one had flesh-colored hair and a scar on his mouth."
"The other was a girl in a floral kimono. Small and weak, but agile..."
"But I still tore off her arms and legs."
"And that strongest Kid, seeing you dismbered, charged at in a frenzy, trying to cut off my head. But in the end, I crushed his skull with a single punch!..."
The Hand Demon burst into maniacal laughter.
"I won't fall for your tricks again!" Makomo declared, unfazed by the Hand Demon's taunts.
"It's trying to anger Makomo-chan," Saeko observed, recognizing the Demon's strategy.
"That vile creature! Makomo-nee-san, do you want to kill it for you?" Nezuko, initially enraged, had cald down but was still furious.
Roy remained silent, leaving the decision to Makomo.
"No need," Makomo said, her eyes fixed on the Hand Demon. "I will kill it myself."
The Hand Demon was indeed cunning.
It never attacked Urokodaki's Students directly. Instead, it would try to anger them with words.
Once they were enraged, their breathing would beco erratic, weakening their Breathing Style techniques.
Then, the Hand Demon would strike the final blow.
Makomo and Sabito had fallen victim to this tactic, leading to their demise.
Otherwise, with their strength, they could have defeated the Hand Demon.
"Oh? You're not angered?" The Hand Demon was surprised.
Every ti it used this tactic on Urokodaki's Students, they would beco enraged, making them easy targets.
But this ti, it wasn't working.
"This ti, I will kill you!" Makomo declared.
She drew her Nichirin Blade and charged.
The Hand Demon narrowed its eyes and launched several arms towards Makomo.
Thwack! Thwack!
Makomo effortlessly sliced through the incoming arms.
"Die!"
Seeing its arms severed so easily, the Hand Demon felt threatened and unleashed a barrage of arms.
But it was futile.
No matter how many arms it launched, Makomo cut through them all.
She now possessed the strength of a Middle-Class Devil, equivalent to an Upper Rank Demon.
The Hand Demon was no match for her.
"It's over!"
After severing countless arms, Makomo suddenly appeared beside the Hand Demon's head.
She swung her blade.
Thwack!
The Hand Demon's head was cleaved in two, its skull rolling to the ground.
"Impossible!" The Hand Demon couldn't believe it.
A mont later, it turned to ash, completely vanishing.
Tears welled up in Makomo's eyes as she watched the Hand Demon disappear.
"Sabito-nii-san, and all my fellow Students, I have avenged you. You can finally rest in peace," she murmured, her voice filled with sorrow.
"I'm sure they're happy knowing that the Hand Demon has been slain," Roy said, approaching Makomo and gently patting her head.
