2) Jump - if you get closer, Titanite can jump over you, sweeping his weapon.

Tips

2) Do not block magic bolts - demon's bolts are so slow, that it is not worth to block them with a shield - better just jump aside.
Tactics
During the fight with Titanite Demon it is best to use a bow and arrows - this tactics requires patience and time, but is completely safe.
After the fight starts, avoid lightning and move towards enemy for few meters.
Aim him and equip a bow. Shoot him while moving or jumping aside to avoid his magic bolts. Usually you'll be able to shoot him once or twice.
During some fights with the demon, you'll be able to hide behind environment elements. In fact, do not put too much faith in them, because sometimes bolts can pass through.
