"I live everyday expecting to die, so that I won't have any regrets even if I do die."
— Mirko, My Hero Academia
"Doma-san, would you please do us the favor of dying?" Kanae asked, drawing her Nichirin Blade and slowly approaching Doma.
Doma let out a sinister chuckle. "You can't kill . This entire area is enveloped in my Blood Demon Art."
"Allow to grant you salvation!"
Doma's Blood Demon Art was laced with a deadly poison. While speaking, he had already frozen his blood, transforming it into ice crystals that he dispersed into the air with his fan.
Once inhaled, the ice crystals caused respiratory distress and eventually led to lung failure.
Kanae had fallen victim to this very technique in her previous life.
However, as a newly transford Devil, Kanae was unfazed by the poison.
Any toxins that entered her body were instantly neutralized by her demonic power.
This was why the others hadn't reacted to Doma's ploy.
Mitsuri Kanroji, the only human present, was protected by Roy's magic.
"Impossible!" Doma exclaid, surprised that his Blood Demon Art had no effect on Kanae.
"Nothing is impossible," Kanae retorted.
"Flower Breathing, Fifth Form: Peonies of Futility!"
She wasted no ti with further words.
Kanae unleashed a flurry of nine consecutive thrusts from four different directions, all aid at a single point, their trajectory resembling peony petals converging on Doma.
Thwack!
Before Doma could react, his neck was pierced, and blood gushed out.
However, such a wound wasn't enough to kill him.
He swiftly retreated, and the gaping hole in his neck instantly regenerated.
"How can you be this strong?!" Doma exclaid, touching his neck in disbelief.
He couldn't believe that his neck had been pierced so easily. He felt a sense of danger he hadn't experienced in a long ti.
"Flower Breathing, Sixth Form: Whirling Peach!"
Kanae didn't give him ti to recover.
She flipped in mid-air, unleashing a horizontal slash with flower petals fluttering in its wake.
The attack was incredibly swift. Doma couldn't react in ti and was decapitated.
Throughout the fight, Doma was completely overwheld by Kanae's speed.
After severing Doma's head, Kanae turned away, assuming the fight was over.
However, she didn't notice that Doma wasn't dead.
As a Demon who had surpassed his limits, Doma wouldn't die even if beheaded by a Nichirin Blade.
"Kanae, Doma isn't dead yet," Roy warned, seeing that Kanae was about to be caught off guard.
"What?!"
Kanae spun around.
Doma had reattached his head.
"I underestimated you," Doma snarled, his expression contorted with rage. "But now, I will kill you!"
"Blood Demon Art: Crystalline Divine Children!"
With a roar, Doma created five ice clones of himself, each capable of independent combat.
Although small, the clones were powerful and could use Blood Demon Arts with the sa potency as Doma himself.
"Blood Demon Art: Frozen Lotus!"
"Blood Demon Art: Vine Wisteria!"
...
The five ice clones unleashed a barrage of different Blood Demon Arts towards Kanae.
"Flower Breathing, Second Form: Honorable Shadow Plum!"
Facing the onslaught of attacks, Kanae activated her Breathing Style.
She unleashed a series of arcing slashes in all directions, their trajectory resembling plum blossoms, deflecting the incoming attacks.
Then, with a burst of speed, she appeared before the ice clones.
In an instant, she shattered all five clones.
However, Doma had anticipated this.
He unleashed his ultimate technique.
"Blood Demon Art: Freezing Mist - Lotus of the Freezing Sun!"
A colossal ice statue, over ten ters tall, materialized. It resembled a Bodhisattva sitting in ditation with its hands clasped together.
Its sheer size exuded imnse destructive power, and it emitted a vast cloud of poisonous ice mist.
Doma cackled, controlling the ice Bodhisattva to swat at Kanae.
Kanae leaped out of the way.
The ground shook as the attack created a deep crater several ters wide.
"What a powerful Blood Demon Art!" Roy exclaid in admiration.
Doma's strength was originally only at the mid-level of Middle-Class Devil, but this technique unleashed power comparable to the peak of a Middle-Class Devil.
Even Kanae had to temporarily retreat in the face of this ice Bodhisattva.
"Trying to escape?" Roy noticed Doma attempting to flee.
Doma, seeing that Kanae was occupied with the ice Bodhisattva, tried to make his escape.
He knew he couldn't defeat Kanae, let alone the others who hadn't even joined the fight.
Although Doma lacked human emotions, he wasn't eager to die.
"Ice Princess Rose!"
A translucent ice rose materialized in Roy's hand.
He hurled it towards Doma. Upon contact, the rose encased Doma in ice, leaving only his head exposed.
This technique was inspired by the "Ice Princess Rose" technique from the ani Freezing.
Even the na remained the sa, and its power was formidable.
Without Doma's control, the ice Bodhisattva beca sluggish.
Kanae swiftly bypassed the ice Bodhisattva and reached Doma.
She unleashed a series of swift strikes with her Nichirin Blade.
Doma's head shattered into countless pieces.
"He should be dead now," Kanae said, relieved, seeing no signs of regeneration.
Mitsuri Kanroji, witnessing Kanae's overwhelming strength, was awestruck.
And Roy's ability to instantly freeze Doma shocked her even more.
He was incredibly powerful!
That was Doma, Upper Rank Two! If she had faced him, she would have been no match.
'Could this be the husband I've been searching for'? she wondered.
