Did Hantengu seriously need them for such a weak and pathetic human?
Sekido groans and pinches his nose in frustration. His siblings had gotten bored at this point, taunting the stupid demon slayer that was shaking and crying beneath them.
Well… Karaku and Urogi were. Aizetsu was trying to tell them to stop, but his naturally soft voice had no affect against them.
“Kehehe, look at him shaking so bad! We barely even touched him and he’s crying~ What a baby!”
Urogi said, giggling and flapping his wings in amusement. They had broken the poor thing’s sword, so all he could do was just look up at the demons in shock and cry.
Sekido growls, turning to him. “Would you stop messing around and fucking kill him already? We have better things to do than-“
His eye twitches as he was cut off by both Urogi and Karaku’s laughter. Those two were like peas in a pod. Always stirring up trouble together. You’d think that they were the ones who were actually twins. It was pissing the oldest off immensely.
Aizetsu side-eyes the two, really not wanting to get involved at all. He found Sekido’s anger and scoldings annoying rather than intimidating or scary most of the time.
“You guys… we should just put him out his misery already. Dying slowly is sad…”
Urogi turned to Aizetsu and laughed. “But that’s boring! Let’s have a bit of fun first—“
Sekido snapped, gritting his teeth and striking his staff onto the ground hard. “STOP MESSING AROUND GODDAMMIT!”
The impact caused the floor around them to shake, surprising all of his siblings and the human. Then lightning strikes from the khakkhara with a loud roar, hitting everyone around it.
Of course this didn’t really affect the other demons. It only caused them to make a noise of discomfort for a moment at having been suddenly electrocuted, but it instantly killed the human that had been sprawled onto the floor.
Sekido looks down in genuine surprise. His intention hadn’t actually been to kill the damn thing like that.
It was silent for a few moments, before the other 3 gazed over to Sekido with the same looks of surprise. Then Urogi gasped and bursts into sudden excitement.
“Woaaahh!!! That was sooo cool, Aniki!” He cheered, pouncing onto Sekido and hugging him.
Sekido’s face flushed in embarrassment. “W—what did I tell you about calling me that?!”
Urogi covered his mouth with his talons, his eyes widening. “Oops!! Sorry, I forgot…!”
The oldest hadn’t liked when Urogi or the others called him “aniki” while they were in public. He found it extremely embarrassing.
Sekido glares at him, his cheeks still tinted red as he groans and looks away. “You’re so annoying.”
Then, he noticed the other two looking at him weirdly. They had a childlike expression on both their faces. Like when a kid does those stupid little puppy eyes to get whatever they wanted.
“Aniki…” They said in unison, and it was very clear they were all trying to tease him now.
Sekido’s grip on his khakkhara tightened as he looked at them flusteredly, his face becoming redder.
“You dumbasses! Cut it out!! We’re done here!”
He huffs, turning away from them all and speedwalking in the other direction. It was really funny how smoke almost seemed to be coming out of his ears.
“Wait for us, Aniki!” Urogi giggles, flying over to him.
They all laughed, and even Aizetsu was giggling too. One thing they could all agree on was how fun it is to tease their older brother.
