Detective Conan: Birth of the Demon Child

Upon seeing this, Kanroji Mitsuri quickly covered her mouth, but her shoulders trembled uncontrollably.

Under normal circumstances, Kanroji Mitsuri would never be rude to her master unless she simply couldn't help it.

"Alright, that's enough about Tanjiro and Nezuko. Let someone take them to rest!"

Upon hearing that Shinazugawa Sanemi's voice had been interrupted, Ubuyashiki Kagaya roughly guessed what had happened. He shook his head helplessly, but did not intend to pursue the matter further.

Who told Sanemi Shinazugawa to act so obnoxiously?

"Then Tanjiro and Nezuko will be sent to the Butterfly Mansion to recuperate. Seimei, you should go with them too!"

As soon as Shinobu Kocho finished speaking, she clapped her hands lightly, and two logistics personnel in black uniforms rushed over.

Led by two support staff, Tanjiro first bowed to Kagaya Ubuyashiki, then carried the wooden box containing Nezuko on his back and followed them to the Butterfly Mansion.

"Ding! Congratulations on successfully signing in to Ubuyashiki Kagaya. You are rewarded with a [Lord's Token], which you can claim at any time."

As he walked past Kagaya Ubuyashiki, Haruaki Suzuki casually raised his hand and touched Kagaya's arm with the back of his hand.

Equipment Name: Lord's Token

Type: Jewelry

Quality: Rare

Effect 1 (Mental Enhancement): Increases the wearer's mental strength by 10 points.

Effect 2 (Charm Boost): The wearer's charm value is slightly increased.

Note: Obeying my lord's command!

"Not bad!"

After reviewing the equipment attributes of the [Lord's Token], a glint of light flashed in Suzuki Seimei's eyes, and he nodded in satisfaction.

Kagaya Ubuyashiki was able to become the lord whom the "Pillars" respected, despite his partially crippled body, mainly because of his exceptional personal charisma.

Therefore, it's not surprising that you could get the "Lord's Token," an item that increases spirit and charm, from Kagaya Ubuyashiki's daily login rewards.

After equipping the Lord's Token, Suzuki Seimei followed Tanjiro and the others to the Butterfly Mansion.

Meanwhile, apart from Rui, who had already been killed by Suzuki Seimei, the remaining five Lower Moon demons were also summoned to the Infinity Castle by Kibutsuji Muzan.

The Infinity Castle is Muzan Kibutsuji's stronghold. The entire castle is shrouded in Nakime's Blood Demon Art, and its internal space is chaotic, making it easy to defend and difficult to attack.

In the original story, if Yushiro hadn't used the "Eye Concealment" technique to bewitch Nakime's eyes, forcing Muzan Kibutsuji to kill her, it would have been difficult for the Demon Slayer Corps to even get close to him, let alone join forces to attack him.

Lower Moon Six, Kamae, looked around and finally fixed her gaze on Nakime sitting on the floor above her. She thought to herself, "Is this that woman's Blood Demon Art? The space here seems to be distorted with that woman at its center."

"Strange? Why don't we see the Upper Moons? Could it be that only the Lower Moons were summoned this time?"

When Lower Moon 4 Zero noticed that only Lower Moon demons were being summoned, a sense of foreboding suddenly arose in his heart.

"Ta-da..."

As several rapid pipa notes rang out, the surrounding space suddenly twisted and shifted.

By the time the five Lower Moon demons came to their senses, they had all been gathered together and appeared in the open space in front of Nakime.

"It moved! Is this that woman's Blood Demon Art?"

Just as Lingyu was feeling uneasy and habitually looking around for a way to escape, a beautiful woman wearing a floral kimono and with long, flowing black hair suddenly appeared beside Nakime.

"Give me a sigh!"

"Bang bang bang..."

As the long-haired beauty parted her lips, the five Lower Moon demons present felt a surge of blood pressure, and all of them uncontrollably knelt down, pressing their foreheads tightly to the floor.

"It's Lord Muzan! It's Lord Muzan's voice! I didn't recognize him at all. His appearance and aura are completely different from before..."

"Rei was killed; he was the fifth lower moon."

Muzan Kibutsuji, now a woman, looked down at the five Lower Rank demons before him, a hint of disgust flashing in his eyes. He said, "I only want to ask you one question: why are the Lower Rank demons so weak?"

Before the five Lower Moon demons could answer, Muzan Kibutsuji said to himself, "Becoming one of the Twelve Demon Moons doesn't mean the end, but rather just the beginning. You need to eat more people, become stronger, and be of help to me!"

For over a hundred years, the Upper Moon demons have never been replaced, and it was the Upper Moon demons who destroyed the 'pillars' of the demon slayers.

But what about you Lower Moon demons? How many times have you been replaced?

Chapter 518 A Heart-Pounding Layoff Meeting

Faced with Muzan Kibutsuji's reprimand, Kamae couldn't help but think to himself, "Even if he tells us these things, there's nothing we can do!"

"Is there no other way? Then you have no value in existing!"

With a gentle wave of his right hand, Muzan Kibutsuji transformed his fair, jade-like hand into a hideous demonic hand covered in eyes and fangs, which then bound Nue tightly.

"Oh no! He can read my mind!"

Kamae instantly realized what was happening and hurriedly begged for mercy, "Lord Muzan Kibutsuji, I was wrong, I was wrong, please..."

"Pfft!"

! ”

Before Fu Nue could finish speaking, the ghostly hand wrapped around him suddenly exerted its strength, crushing him into a puddle of bloody mud.

The Lower Moon demon, splattered with blood and mud, dared not utter a single complaint. He could only press his head tightly against the floor, his body trembling uncontrollably.

Looking at the Lower Moon demons before him, their bodies trembling like leaves, Muzan Kibutsuji coldly asked, "Do you think demon slayers are more terrifying than me?"

"No... not..."

Upon hearing this, Lingyuzi instinctively wanted to explain, but faced with Muzan Kibutsuji's cold gaze, the words that were about to come out were swallowed back in fear.

"When you encounter a Demon Slayer's 'Pillar,' you always run away immediately, right?"

After reading Zero's true thoughts, the killing intent in Muzan Kibutsuji's eyes grew even stronger.

"No...that's not it, I fought for you with my life..."

"Pfft!"

! ”

Before Lingyu could finish speaking, Muzan Kibutsuji impatiently swung his demonic claws and slapped her into a pulp.

"Whoosh whoosh..."

After being splattered with Zero's demon blood, Lower Moon Three Byakuya finally couldn't control his fear and turned into a blur, fleeing into the distance.

Judging from Muzan Kibutsuji's words and actions just now, he clearly wants to eliminate all the Lower Moon demons.

With Lower Moon Six and Lower Moon Four already killed, it's naturally Lower Moon Three's turn next.

Byōha knew he was no match for Muzan Kibutsuji, so he never considered resisting and only wanted to escape far away from here.

"Thump!"

In the blink of an eye, he appeared hundreds of meters away in the diseased leaf, only to see the surrounding space distort and change. Before he could react, his head had already been ripped off by Muzan Kibutsuji.

"Damn it... my body can't recover..."

With her regenerative abilities sealed by Muzan Kibutsuji, Byakuya could only watch helplessly as the headless corpse lay not far away, closing her eyes with a face full of resentment.

Kibutsuji Muzan casually tossed Byakuya's head in front of the remaining two Lower Rank demons and said expressionlessly, "I think the Twelve Demon Moons only need the Upper Rank demons. The Lower Rank demons can be disbanded."

You call this disbanding?!

That's way too hardcore!

These Lower Moon demons used to mock Kyogai, saying he was weak and had been removed from the Twelve Demon Moons.

Now, these Lower Moon demons can't help but envy Kyōkai, wishing they had known they would also be laid off early.

Looking down at the two remaining Lower Moon demons, Muzan Kibutsuji asked in a completely emotionless tone, "Is there anything else you'd like to say?"

Upon hearing this, Lower Moon Two Rokuro couldn't help but excitedly exclaim, "Lord Muzan! Please give me some more time. If you can grant me more blood, I'm sure I can adapt to it and become a stronger demon to fight for you!"

Are you telling me what to do? Are you ordering me around?

"no no……"

"Pfft!"

! ”

Muzan Kibutsuji didn't give Rokuro a chance to explain, crushing him into a pulp before devouring him.

Turning to look at the last remaining Lower Moon One, Mamu, Kibutsuji Muzan coldly asked, "Is there anything else you want to say?"

"Lord Muzan! I am truly grateful to you for allowing me to witness such a wonderful show before I die."

Facing Muzan Kibutsuji's icy gaze, Mamu showed no fear whatsoever. Instead, she exclaimed excitedly, "What I love most is seeing the misfortune and suffering of others, hearing the cries of other demons with my own ears, and being killed by your own hands. I feel incredibly happy, it's like a dream!"

Seeing Mamu's extremely trembling appearance, Muzan Kibutsuji couldn't help but be a little stunned.

What surprised Muzan Kibutsuji the most was that Mamu truly felt that way deep down; he genuinely believed that being killed by him was a very happy thing.

The main reason why Muzan Kibutsuji had the idea of ​​eliminating all the Lower Moon demons was because Rui had been killed.

Perhaps it's because "Tired" experienced similar things when he was still human, which is similar to what Muzan Kibutsuji experienced as a child, that he has a particular fondness for "Tired".

Therefore, Muzan Kibutsuji felt extremely angry after learning that "Rui" had been killed.

At first, Muzan Kibutsuji hesitated about whether to eliminate all the Lower Moon demons.

As a result, after Muzan Kibutsuji read the true thoughts in the minds of those Lower Moon demons, he made up his mind to eliminate them.

However, Muzan Kibutsuji did not expect that such an oddball as Mamu would appear among the Lower Moon demons. Not only was she not afraid of death, she even enjoyed it.

"puff!"

Just as Mamu opened her arms, her face flushed, to welcome death, Muzan Kibutsuji's tip suddenly turned into a sharp bone spur, piercing into his neck and injecting a large amount of the Demon King's blood into his body.

"Ah ah ah..."

Having been injected with the blood of the Demon King, Demon Dream's veins bulged all over his body, and he couldn't help but roll around on the ground in pain.

Besides constantly eating people, cannibals have another way to become stronger: they can obtain the blood of the Demon King bestowed by Muzan Kibutsuji.
