"As for the reason, I think it's probably because you have very little confidence in yourself."

"I'm very confident in making snacks." Shinobu Kocho said confidently.

"You don't have confidence because the wisteria poison you created so far has only worked on lower-rank demons. However, the ultimate target of your special move is Upper Rank Two Douma. You know that there is an unbridgeable gap between upper and lower-rank demons, so let the doubt in yourself be able to take revenge."

Qiao Qiao pointed at himself and said, "So, you thought of me, a demon who is not an upper-rank demon, but is more powerful than a lower-rank demon."

"Based on your experience, you used trace amounts of toxins through wisteria flower cakes, mosquito coils, sachets, etc., probably to observe whether I would develop symptoms such as paralysis or physical discomfort, and then prepare your wisteria flower poison at ten times the dosage based on these symptoms."

Kocho Shinobu's smile suddenly stopped.

Even though she was still smiling, the luster in her eyes had disappeared.

"Very perceptive Mr. Ghost, you obviously don't have any adverse reactions."

"Of course. Besides the fact that I'm strong enough, another factor is that the amount you bet was very small."

Qiao Qiao said: "It is nonsense to talk about the toxicity of any medicine, poison, health medicine, or even life-saving medicine without considering the dosage."

"So, I don't care about your little trick. After all, I am also curious about how much wisteria flowers will make me feel uncomfortable. But, unfortunately, there has been no reaction so far."

"So, what should we do? If we are discovered by Mr. Ghost, will we fight here? If we let the angry Mr. Ghost go inside, will it pose a threat to the head of the family?"

For Shinobu Kocho, whose relatives were eaten by evil spirits when she was a child, the head of the family here is not only her boss, but also a family member.

Thinking of this, Shinobu Kocho felt that her actions had brought an extremely huge threat at the most inappropriate time.

Because of me, I might even leave an indelible scar between the other party who originally favored humans and the head of the family.

Thinking of this, Shinobu Kocho couldn't help but sweat dripping from her forehead.

"If you keep using me to test poison, you won't be able to do that without paying something."

"What should I pay? Could it be that Mr. Ghost still clings to the wealth of the world?"

Shinobu Kocho smiled on her face, but she was already cringing in her heart.

"Ms. Shinobu Kocho, you are scared now, right? You don't want me to change my stance and side with the evil spirits, do you?"

Qiao Qiao directly expressed the concerns in Shinobu Kocho's heart.

"So, Mr. Ghost, what is the price?"

Shinobu Kocho knew that her bottom line had been made clear to the other party.

Therefore, Kocho Shinobu secretly decided that even if she died...

……

Shinobu Kocho felt the scene in front of her eyes suddenly go dark.

This is followed by deep mucosal contact

My little brain was buzzing, the oxygen was being sucked out of my mouth, and I couldn't think of anything.

But her beautiful purple pupils widened, opened wide, and shook violently.

The smile that I had been holding on to became difficult to maintain, and the coldness turned into softness.

Until an electric current came back from between the chest and hit the brain, reconnecting the already messy consciousness.

There was a gleam in Shinobu Kocho's eyes, and she immediately slashed towards Qiao Qiao with her sword in hand.

However, Qiao Qiao, who was prepared, dodged easily.

"If you want me to test poison for you, you can try applying wisteria lipstick next time."

Qiao Qiao said lightly.

Butterfly was so angry at this that she wanted to curse.

but……

"Ms. Shinobu Kocho, you don't want me to change my stance from you to the evil spirits' side, do you?"

This sentence made Shinobu Kocho choke on all the words in her throat and stared.

The smile on his face looked particularly hideous because of the rising blood pressure in his body and the exposed blue veins on his forehead.

"By the way, you don't want to find out during the final battle that your poison has no effect on Douma."

Qiao Qiao tucked his arms inside his clothes.

In the original work, Shinobu Kocho died because her poison was unable to kill Douma and she was defeated.

With Qiao Qiao's friendly reminder, Hu Die Ren suppressed her anger and said with a smile, "I will."

"Of course it depends on whether Mr. Ghost has the courage to try, because the next dose of wisteria flowers could be lethal."

After forcibly classifying this action as a poison test, Shinobu Kocho was finally able to calm down.

Shinobu Kocho turned around and led the way. She wiped her mouth with her hand, and seemed to be able to feel the temperature, but it was nothing. She tidied up her messy collar with her hand, and here was the real highlight.

In the middle, she could feel her heartbeat beating a little bit, which made her face blush uncontrollably. She was angry, but also had other feelings.

Ah, I am such a disappointment!

If Qiao Qiao hadn't been there, she really wanted to slap herself hard.

"Testing poisons. Yes, I want to become stronger by testing poisons to create better poisons."

"We must have the power to protect the happiness that has not yet been destroyed by evil spirits."

"Because my sister and I have made a promise to kill more evil spirits and never let this pain befall anyone else."

85. Demon Slayer: Muzan’s power is beyond my imagination. Sorry, forgive me for laughing out loud.

"Master, Mr. Qiao Qiao is invited to come."

"Thank you for your hard work, Shinobu."

"Welcome, Qiao Qiao."

Ubuyashiki Yoya, supported by his wife, had been waiting in the living room for a long time.

The hall is simply furnished, with only a table on which tea is brewed.

"In today's westernized world, we still use tatami here."

Nowadays, the island country is seriously westernized.

Qiao Qiao sat down on the tatami.

Shinobu Kocho hesitated for a moment, but did not leave. She chose to sit near Ubuyashiki Kōya's wife, at a distance that was enough for her to swing the knife.

While waiting for the tea to warm up, Ubuyashiki Yoshiya's wife began to prepare it.

"It looks like matcha."

Qiao Qiao liked matcha cake even before he traveled through time.

"But I've never tasted such authentic matcha."

"As long as Mr. Qiao Qiao likes it." Ubuyashiki Yoya said.

"But are you here to drink tea? If you keep going like this, you'll just be wasting each other's time. Just say what you want to say."

Qiao Qiao always hated beating around the bush, so he asked directly.

"..."

Ubuyashiki Yoya was a little surprised. After all, in this day and age, people who are good at talking still pay attention to etiquette.

And Qiao Qiao, who was mentioned by Shinobu Kocho as knowing the world of war, should have known it for a while.

"Mr. Qiao Qiao, I called you here this time because I have a favor to ask of you."

Qiao Qiao was silent, so Ubuyashiki Yoya assumed that Qiao Qiao was listening and said, "If I die in this generation, I hope you can take my place and lead the Demon Slayer Corps."

"Master of the house."

Kochi Shinobu was shocked.

Looking at Mrs. Ubuyashiki's calm appearance, I immediately realized that the couple had already discussed this.

"Did I hear you correctly? You're planning to let a ghost lead the way in killing ghost horses? What a joke!"

Qiao Qiao dug his ear holes and said nothing.

"Qiao Qiaojun, even though I can't see with my own eyes, I can feel that you are an excellent leader."

Ubuyashiki Yoya was no longer as calm as usual and became very excited.

The battle that has lasted for thousands of years has always been a process in which the Demon Slayer Corps has been at a disadvantage.

In the thousand years since the successor Kuni Yoriichi, this generation of the Demon Slayer Corps is the one closest to Kibutsuji Muzan.

The sudden appearance of Qiao Qiao brought different hope to their area.

He immediately brought a young swordsman who seemed to be the reincarnation of the legendary swordsman Yoshiichi Tsugakuni.

It also brings them a whole new number of possibilities, the Immortal Wave Breathing Method.

Ubuyashiki Yoya could understand the magic of this breathing method.

It is harmless to people and eradicates evil, and is also called the Immortal Way. In East Asian civilization, everyone admires the realm of the immortals.

He already knew what kind of hardships Qiao Qiao had gone through in order to inherit this breathing method.

In this regard, Ubuyashiki Yoya has decided to entrust the possibilities of the future to the person in front of him.

Talking about the history of his family and Muzan, but Qiao Qiao actually already knew the whole story.

However, listening to Ubuyashiki Yoya's detailed explanation of the birth of Muzan and the composition of the Demon Slayer Corps was a whole other experience.

Muzan was originally just an ordinary man suffering from illness. In order to prolong his life, a pharmacist prepared a special potion for him. From then on, a ghost was born. He found that he had recovered his health, possessed unparalleled power, and eternal life!

The only weakness is fear of sunlight.

He gave his blood to other people, and they turned into ghosts.

This is the origin of demons, and the Demon Slayer Corps is naturally assembled to kill demons.

……

Of course, when listening to Ubuyashiki Yoya's story, Qiao Qiao's mind was full of thoughts about whether Muzan's ecology was a bit similar to the zombies in a certain Resident Evil.

Becoming an undead creature through some special drug is just like a zombie taking a virus.

You know, the viruses in the Resident Evil series are also largely taken from certain flowers and plants.

"Could this world be related to the biohazard?"

in doubt.

Ubuyashiki Kazuya's words had reached the point where the real purpose was revealed.

"Originally, I wanted the Demon Slayer Corps to spend more time with Qiao Qiaowu, but I didn't expect that this should have taken quite a long time to achieve. But from the first meeting, those children were full of admiration for you, which made me understand..."

“Some people are born to be leaders.”

"Although, Mr. Qiao Qiao's identity as a ghost makes his position in this situation particularly awkward. However, you are different because you have escaped from Wuzan's control and do not eat people.

"Mr. Qiao Qiao, you are now a qualified leader who possesses both immortality and human glory. You are someone who can lead the Demon Slayer Corps to victory over the long years."

Ubuyashiki Yoya kept coughing when he said this.

"Many, many children died at their hands." Ubuyashiki Yoya coughed twice, his expression sad: "Perhaps it is because our family has a short life span so far that we have not set a good example for these children."

Short life means it is difficult to accumulate experience.

Being short-lived means that results must be obtained immediately.

In history, there have been many cases where Ubuyashiki, who were afraid of death, behaved hastily and lost their composure, which led to the Demon Slayer Corps being besieged by Muzan.

Influenced by their culture, the ancient people of East Asia have always admired having a fair, qualified and immortal emperor.

Because the Ubuyashiki, who have been fighting against demons for a thousand years, have a short lifespan in every generation, and have been influenced by these cultures, this generation has actually developed such strange ideas.

It's just that there has never been a qualified person.

Therefore, the words that were uttered now made Qiao Qiao feel surprised.

However, after listening to it, one can also feel the mood of Ubuyashiki Yoya who is now doing everything possible to keep Qiao Qiao in the Demon Slayer Corps.

Butterfly suppressed the fluctuations in her heart and looked at Qiao Qiao.
