Demon Slayer: Starting with the Kingdom

The fake Upper Moon One, who was originally dead and was played by Guhuoniao, is resurrected at this moment by the overwriting of the Mitsuba Blood Demon Art!

Mitsuha, having finally revealed her identity, slaughtered all the shocked and desperate Demon Slayer Corps swordsmen!

Then they turned around and slaughtered the Ubuyashiki clan before they could react!

Only the despairing Kagaya Ubuyashiki and the empty Demon Slayer Corps remained.

This concludes the first part of the story.

This was the original script direction that Mitsuha and Doma had decided on, but due to Mitsuha's last-minute changes, it ended up going in the way it is now...

"Didn't I already explain the reason before?"

She tossed the datura flower into the goblet in front of her, and watching the blood in the goblet gradually decrease, Mitsuha smiled and said:

"Knight Doma, I've decided to postpone our script for a while."

By then, I will have someone more suitable to take my place in performing this script…

"I see. Then, could Your Majesty please tell me in advance who this more suitable person is?"

"It will be kept secret for now."

As Mitsuha spoke, she opened her palm and glanced at the butterfly hair ornament in her hand.

"Eh~ How could this happen~ The Holy Maiden is so wicked~"

"My lords, if there is nothing else, I shall take my leave now."

At this moment, the Guhuoniao, who was standing to the side, also spoke up with a smile.

For Mitsuha, Ubume has two very useful characteristics.

First, I love performing; second, I'm not afraid of death.

Unlike most other evil spirits, this female ghost had no fear of death.

She would even be willing to die if it would bring her more attention.

Therefore, in this script, Ubume was supposed to hold Mitsuha's mandala flower at the end, disguise herself as Mitsuha, and be killed once by the Demon Slayer Corps led by Mitsuha.

Then she was resurrected by Mitsuha's Blood Demon Art, resulting in a stunning reversal.

However, due to Mitsuha's last-minute change, the ending ultimately became that she and Doma killed Mitsuha's puppet body together.

Some might wonder why Mitsuha didn't show her true form in the end, but instead had someone else play the role.

One reason for this is that the Ubume herself is relatively weak, which in the original script allowed the Demon Slayer Corps to create more weaknesses for them to kill, giving them a bit of fun.

More importantly, Mitsuha is very cautious.

Yes, Mitsuha is very cautious.

Over the past few centuries of her demonic life, Mitsuha gradually discovered one of her weaknesses, which was—

You'll never learn your lesson if you never suffer a loss.

But at the same time, she also discovered another advantage of herself, which was—

You'll always learn from your mistakes.

Therefore, ever since her experience of almost being killed by Tamayo hundreds of years ago, Mitsuha has learned the meaning of "caution" just like Muzan.

Especially after she evolved the ability to control a puppet body and share her Blood Demon Art with other demons, she took these two words to the extreme.

Despite her seemingly carefree and playful nature, Mitsuha now only uses her puppet body to indulge in her antics.

The puppet body can be incredibly reckless, but the real body must be extremely cautious!

After all, losing a puppet body won't cause any loss, but the original body is different. If something really happens to the original body, then it's truly over.

Just like this performance, even when facing only her puppet body, even when facing a situation that seemed certain to succeed.

Mitsuha absolutely refused to let her true form actually appear, but instead specially sought out Ubume and shared her Blood Demon Art with her, allowing her to appear in her place.

After all, even if there is only a one in ten thousand chance, Mitsuha has to seriously consider what to do if some uncontrollable accident happens and her main body really dies.

What if the deity is not martial and suddenly attacks her using some means?

She wouldn't be foolish enough to take that risk!

As long as the main body doesn't personally intervene, Mitsuha will always have the ability to cover for any unforeseen events that occur in the end.

With the world developing so fast these days, and the future so exciting, she hasn't had enough of living yet!

Mitsuha never wants to experience that near-death experience again, and she will never give the Demon Slayer Corps any chance that might actually kill her.

The advantage of the dragon being right in front of you is that as long as she doesn't reveal her true health bar, the demon hunter will never be able to kill her!

As for fake health bars?

That's fine with me. If I'm in a good mood, I can even kill one myself and show it to you...

Beneath her seemingly carefree exterior, Mitsuha is actually incredibly cautious.

Chapter 147 Doma and Kotoha

Time has begun to flow again, and six years have passed in the blink of an eye.

For a demon with an infinite lifespan, six years is just a very short time.

Miya changed jobs at another newspaper, while Yen Sheng, now in his middle age, had just begun his fifth term as a member of parliament.

His former assistant, Gyutaro, now holds a high-ranking government position and appears in the news and newspapers from time to time.

Doma, along with Koume and Ubume, filmed several more hit movies. It's said that this trio has now expanded beyond Japan and reached the world.

The antique shop in Tokyo, which was owned by Gyokuko, went out of business due to poor management. But I heard that he recently went to a rural town and opened a new porcelain shop, specializing in selling the pots he makes himself.

As for Hantengu, that shameful fellow is still wandering the streets of Tokyo begging. Because of his wandering around, he is often beaten to the ground by the local beggars.

This spineless coward...

Finally, there's Akaza.

Having successfully completed his studies with top marks, he has now finally achieved his dream of obtaining a doctoral degree, becoming the "youngest" Doctor of Literature at the University of Tokyo!

Congratulations! Congratulations! This child has finally made something of himself...

While continuing his academic pursuits, the young Dr. Komaji is now also teaching at the University of Tokyo.

He spends every day teaching classes to the students who have signed up for his courses, and he seems to be having a great time...

Mitsuha was extremely pleased with this.

It seems that soon she might be able to completely let go of this child...

The past six years may seem peaceful, but in reality, a small but noteworthy event has occurred.

Of course, it has nothing to do with the Demon Slayer Corps; the issue concerns Doma.

"So, this is the... treasure you told me you were going to show me?"

In Tokyo, inside the luxurious Western-style villa of the famous director Doma, Mitsuha sat on the sofa, squinting as she sized up the beautiful girl in front of her.

The girl wore a light green floral kimono, had long, smooth, jet-black hair, emerald green eyes, and a gentle and beautiful appearance... no, it should be said that she was extremely beautiful.

Even among all the people Mitsuha had seen in the past few hundred years, the girl in front of him was among the most beautiful.

The girl was holding a two- or three-year-old child in her arms, with the same emerald green eyes as her, making it obvious at a glance that the child was her own flesh and blood.

Yes, she is a married woman.

According to Doma's introduction, her name is Kotohachi, and the child in her arms is named Inosuke.

She was a pitiful person whom Doma had encountered by chance a few days earlier on his way back to the headquarters of the Eternal Paradise Cult.

It is said that she ran away from home with her infant child in the middle of the night because she could no longer endure the domestic violence from her husband and mother-in-law. While she was lost, she happened to run into Doma.

Then, under Doma's enthusiastic invitation, I followed him in a daze and came to his large villa in Tokyo, where I stayed.

How should I put it? It feels like trafficking innocent women...

"I...I've met you, Madam..."

Seemingly uneasy at Mitsuha's silence, Kotoha quickly tried to bow to her, but Mitsuha was startled and hastily stepped aside, explaining in her own words:

"Don't get me wrong, I'm not some lady. This guy and I are just ordinary friends. This is my first time visiting his place today..."

As soon as Mitsuha finished speaking, before Kotoha could say anything, Doma suddenly froze.

He turned his head and stared blankly at Mitsuha, his seven-colored pupils filled with disbelief.

"So, in the eyes of the Holy Maiden, we are just ordinary friends?"

"Then what kind of relationship do you want?"

"Haven't I always been Her Majesty's most loyal servant?!"

"Doma, what the hell are you doing now?!"

Speechless at the anomaly of this guy's abstract thought process, Mitsuha simply waved her hand dismissively.

"Alright, alright, just get to the point. What exactly do you want from me? You don't mean you want me to break her up with you, do you?"

Let me make this clear first: I only eat demon slayers; no matter how beautiful an ordinary person is, I have no interest in them…

Mitsuha asked the question directly, without even trying to avoid Kotoha in front of her.

After all, the two had been friends for over two hundred years, and Mitsuha believed she understood the personality of the creature beside her quite well.

Faced with such a beautiful girl, the fact that this guy was in such a hurry to call her over makes it obvious that he's just trying to share something precious with a good friend and wants to invite her over for dinner...

But this time, it seems a little different?

"No, Your Holiness, I have no intention of eating Little Qinye."

In response to Mitsuha's question, Douma shook his head, blinked his large eyes, and said earnestly:

"Xiao Qinye is a very good girl, and I want to keep her by my side for the rest of my life."

If I could, I'd also like to see her die peacefully in her old age.

"Eh? Mr. Doma! What are you saying all of a sudden..."

Kotoha, who had been somewhat confused about what the two were talking about since the beginning, suddenly heard Doma's direct statement, which sounded like a confession. Her mind went blank, and she was completely stunned, her cheeks turning red.

How strange. We were talking about food one second, and then suddenly we were talking about her the next.

Speaking of which, spending a lifetime together and dying peacefully in one's sleep... So this kind-hearted Mr. Doma has always viewed her this way?

No wonder he was so enthusiastic towards her back then, and even took her to stay in such a luxurious villa. So that's why...

"Oh~ I see~"

Mitsuha glanced at Kotoha, who had now become a steam princess, and simply nodded calmly.

She gently leaned closer and whispered in Tongmo's ear:

"Are you having a seizure?"

Doma gently leaned closer and whispered in Mitsuha's ear:

"Seriously~"

Is this guy serious?!

Having received confirmation from Doma once again, Mitsuha finally couldn't hold back any longer.

She immediately took two steps back and looked at Doma with an expression as if he were a monster.

Doma, whose love for eating beautiful women has remained unchanged for over two hundred years, has now surprisingly changed his ways. Not only does he not intend to eat the pretty girl in front of him, but he has even said that he will accompany her to the end of her life!

Incredible...

Is this a moral elevation or a revival of humanity?

(You guys better meow at me already (*?︶?*))

Chapter 148 This! It's love!

"So you mean that because you felt she was special the moment you saw her, and a strange feeling arose in your heart, you decided not to eat her, but to keep her by your side and raise her indefinitely?"

In the large villa in Doma, Mitsuha was standing by the living room window, watching Kotoha happily trimming the flowers and plants in the courtyard below.
