Traveling The Anime Multiverse As Nurarihyon

After hearing that Inuyasha stood in front of me staring at me not saying a single word. But I can see his body instinctively shifting to a combat ready stance even while he remains shocked. To the untrained eye he might seem like he knows what he's doing but I can recognize and know for a fact that the kid is a glass cannon. The only thing that he currently has in his arsenal is years of what is basically unpolished street brawling and and the power that he has as the progeny of a daiyokai(great demon).

The yokai side of me can even come to understand the boys plight.

Inuyasha has great battle sense and talent but is currently untrained. Who would go out of their way to train him. ' It's completely reasonable, this world just like the one in nurarihyon no mago and many others thinks that half breeds are an abomination. Half demons are shunned away and persecuted by both sides. Hated, with the only reason being their very existence. Not really belonging to one side or the other.' That line of thought brought a fiery determination back to the surface.

'I'll become a mighty and tall tree! A tree tall and strong enough to carry all those who are enamored by my fear. Wether they be strong or weak I'll carry them all in my back as a part of my hyakki Yakō(night parade of a hundred demons). I'll become the second head of the nura clan and in turn become the master of all goblins, monsters and ghosts!!!! After that they will not be able to look down on me, my heritage or my mother.' This memory of mine that would lead to my inauguration as the second head of the nura clan made me chuckle and immediately after start laughing madly.

This laughter of mine finally breaks Inuyasha out of his stupor and he tries to get even further into battle mode but then he just looks at me like I've grown a second head.

"What's wrong kid you shouldn't be making that kinda face right before a fight... your enemies will look down on you." I say clearly glossing over the fact that I also got distracted.

"Shut u-" he tries to say but I interrupt him once again and say; "Anyway, let's get right into it I think the night has already been long enough. Oh! Just by the way I won't be using my sword. I ain't really about to attack an empty handed brat without any weapon of his own." I say as I toss the sword to kagome behind us.

"Keep that safe for me for a second. I won't be needing to give the kid some tough love. I can handle this with my b.a.r.e hands." I say as the girl catches it.

After letting go of my katana all playfulness drains off my face leaving only a trace of a small smile.

"Come." I raise my hand and do the iconic pose trademarked to Bruce Lee.

"I'VE HAD ENOUGH OF YOU!!! YOU F.U.C.K.I.N.G BASTARD!!!" With that he exploded towards me.

He almost instantly appears in front of me throwing a telegraphed punch that I easily dodge with a grin as I redirect him to have his back face me by grabbing his wrist and using his own momentum against him. After I have his back facing me I give him a kick in his a.s.s and send him barreling through the air.

He apparently didn't take kindly to that as he immediately restabilized himself in the middle of the air and as soon as his feet touched the ground he vaulted towards my position with pure hatred in his face.

This time though it seems he learned that the usual running to an opponent and over powering them through physical prowess won't work in this situation. I see his body instantly shift into position preparing a round house kick. But he doesn't know that I've dealt with this particular move countless times courtesy of a pay skipping, eat and runner old yokai.

I easily sidestepped the kick and gripped the front part of his kimono.

After that I mustered as much strength as I can with one arm and I bring him towards me at neck breaking speed and I slam my forehead into his nose. A sickening crunch is heard along with a scream of pain and he falls to his knees.

"ARRRGGHHHHHH!!!!!" He wails like a wounded animal.

I release a uppercut while using "fear" to reinforce and strengthen my arm and as his bottom row of teeth slams against the upper part and his head went upwards following the motion of the punch. I follow that by a barrage of fist all landing in places that would be extremely dangerous or even lethal for even low level ayakashi.

This might seem like brutal display but the kid can handle it. Inuyasha's body is way more resilient than most yokai and his healing factor was way beyond my own before I upgraded it. Still I'm making sure to infuse healing energies everytime I've struck him just to stay on the safe side. All this time I've been hitting him I'm taking into consideration that if any wound goes above a certain threshold his body might automatically trigger a berserker state in order to preserve his life.

I see him struggle trying to stand up but I know he will do it. If it's one thing that half-demons have to posses in order to survive it's an unrelenting will and he has a perfect example of that. But I won't let him stand up that easy.

"Kid, you know what you did wrong?" I say as I walk slowly towards him.

"DAMNNNN ITTTT-" *BAAAAAAMM!! I slam his head into the ground.

"One, you let me decide the terms and pace of the battle. I've been purposely cutting you of at any chance knowing quite well that it would agitate you and you wouldn't be able to act with your full potential. You seem easy to anger and are prone to get tunnel vision and that's easy to notice in one glace. You were distracted by your anger that you didn't even try to use your claws or enhanced senses properly even though they are supposed to be your main assets." I say while holding up one finger up in the air.

"Two, you were completely overconfident in your own abilities. When you saw me let go of my sword that should off raised one of two alarms. First it would be that I'm a arrogant idiot that didn't know the full extent of my or your abilities which I'm not and I do. That would've been the best for you. Second should've been that I had absolute confidence in my skill to take you down which I have. You should've calmed down and tried to ascertain which one-" I couldn't finish saying as for the first time the kid interrupts me with an attack.

"Iron reaver, soul stealer!!!" He slashes with his claws and creates sharp gales of wind that cut my body apart... or so he thinks from the grin in his face yet it immediately disappears as my body melts into black ink-ish mist.

I appeared by his sides grab him by his hair and slam a kneecap into his face but I don't let go.

"Three, you committed a mistake that a real man should never commit. You shouldn't prey upon the weak without purpose. Especially not if it's something of so little meaning. Humanity isn't a weakness to be shrugged off at the first sign of inconvenience you won't really gain anything by throwing it away. Don't look down on humanity." I say as I finish my little rant.

"How?" I hear him ask and this time I intend to let him finish but the question I was expecting about how I knew what he wanted the jewel for didn't come.

"How... are you so strong?" Now this is completely unexpected but I guess I'll answer him anyway.

"Because I carry all that matters to me on my back. I gotta be at least this strong to hold it's weight." I say and smile at him.

He looks at me shocked with wide eye's. I don't really know what's going through his mind right now but after that look I know I won't be able to stop myself from asking.

"Hey kid, will you join my night parade of a hundred demons?"
