Akane tried to follow the Princess but was immediately stopped by a wooden enemy. What Kouko pulled out into the open was a puppet. Akane raised an eye brow at that new development. Before she could make a snarky comment even more came out surrounding them. Their movements were inhuman and unintentionally silly to Akane. "You all have the stupidest grins. Other guardians try not to die" Akane half heartedly said not really caring one way or another. 

When the puppets attacked she waited in a combat stance with the fun end facing their way. The enemy wielding the same weapon charged at her along with another one who held a spear. Akane stood there like a statue slowly tightening her grip. The slayer could see her opponent's movement slowed down and just waited until her face was less than a second away from being skewered. In a blur she dodged the attack ducking low and sliced at their legs in one wide strike removing them at the waste. 

Of course being what they are it wasn't going to be the end for them. With two swift strikes their heads were bisected. "I think I'm ahead. How about you t.." Before she even finished a giant star whipped through the air nearly decapitating the Demon Slayer who bent backwards nearly falling down. It crashed into a building behind her. "Huh that's new."
