There are many ruthless bosses living in my territory

What she didn't know was that from this step on she would face new pain.

Chapter 82 Strange Phenomenon (4.5K)

Two o'clock in the afternoon, at the Umayashiki residence.

The six current pillars, Rock Pillar Gyoumei Hiramashi, Sound Pillar Tengen Uzui, Wind Pillar Fushigawa Minoru, Flame Pillar Rengoku Kyojuro, Flower Pillar Kocho Kanae, and Snake Pillar Iguro Obanai, attended the meeting.

Everyone knelt on one knee and saluted the person in front of them.

That person is none other than the current head of the Sanyashiki family and the leader of the Demon Slayer Corps—

The birth house is glorious.

"Everyone already knows the recent situation."

"The number of demons is decreasing rapidly, with no signs of increasing. Even the death of Upper Six did not cause any ripples."

"It seems that Muzan Kibutsuji has disappeared."

Just over a month ago, the Demon Slayer Corps discovered that the number of demons was extremely abnormal.

In the past, after killing every demon, Muzan Kibutsuji would create more demons, causing the current six pillars to kill demons almost non-stop.

But things are very different lately.

The number of demons decreased a lot, so the pillars had more time and were able to eliminate all the lower-rank demons. They also investigated Hana-gai together and successfully killed the Upper Six.

It can be said to be an unprecedented achievement.

However, neither the Six Pillars nor Ubuyashiki Yoya were happy.

In the past, members of the Demon Slayer Corps died and demons were killed every day.

It now takes several days to find a ghost, and there are not enough ghosts for the final selection.

This abnormal phenomenon can only mean one thing -

Muzan Kibutsuji no longer needs to create new demons.

Although the fact that the number of people killed by demons has been greatly reduced is a very happy thing, the meaning behind this phenomenon is really not good news for the Demon Slayer Corps.

"My Lord, I think we should..."

When Fuzukawa Miyabi was about to make a proposal, two figures suddenly appeared in everyone's eyes.

One is a handsome man with blond hair and blue eyes who fits the oriental aesthetic, and the other is a beautiful woman wearing a black kimono and looking enchanting and evil.

Who? How could someone come to them without them noticing?

Ubuyashiki Yoya was also caught off guard, but there was no look of surprise on his face.

When he "looked" at the woman in kimono with his blind eyes, he felt a mysterious connection.

"You must be Muzan Kibutsuji."

Muzan Kibutsuji?!

The six pillars were terribly shocked.

It was clearly in the daytime under the sun, and neither of them had any ghostly aura... Could one of them be Muzan Kibutsuji? ! And it was that woman!!!

The next second, the six pillars moved at the same time.

In order to prevent their weapons from interfering with each other, the six chose to attack from different directions.

In a flash, the weapons of the six pillars were only ten centimeters away from Muzan, but...

They saw Wuzan's charming smile.

Swish!

When they reacted, all the pillars saw a finger.

Then they flew backwards and fell to the ground, with a red spot and some blood on their throats.

Liszt withdrew his right hand without even looking at the pillars around him who had collapsed due to his paralysis.

"You don't have to do anything."

Although he said that, Muzan's eyes were filled with joy.

Liszt looked at Ubuyashiki Yoya who was kneeling in front of him and Ubuyashiki Amane beside him.

There was a flash of panic in Tianyin's eyes.

“… Tianyin, can you tell me what Muzan looks like?”

After hearing Ubuyashiki Yoshiya's calm voice, Tianyin instantly calmed down and spoke after thinking.

然而有人比她更快。

"Why not see it for yourself with your own eyes?"

Liszt raised his index finger, and a holy light illuminated everyone.

I felt warm all over, as if I was back in my mother's womb...

The diseases in Ubuyashiki Yoshiya's body and the hidden injuries in the six pillars were all eliminated at this moment.

When the holy light disappeared, Yaoya saw Lister and Muzan Kibutsuji beside him.

Yaoya read a familiar feeling from behind those deep sky-blue pupils.

this person……

"Did you see clearly?" Muzan looked at Ubuyashiki Yoya jokingly: "This is alms for you."

"The charity of the strong."

At this moment, she did not have any resentment towards the people from the Demon Slayer Corps in front of her, but instead felt very comfortable.

The dream I once had has come true, and the members of the Demon Slayer Corps are just ants, so why should I bother with them?

However, contrary to Muzan's expectations, Ubuyashiki did not look at her, but instead looked directly at Lister.

"You are a human, right? Why do you want to help Muzan Kibutsuji?"

"Promises and... She's my friend, my comrade, and now we're on the same side."

Liszt was very calm and was just stating a fact.

However, Ubuyashiki Kayouya saw "pride" in the eyes of Muzan next to him.

Is she proud to stand with this gentleman?

"Ubuyashiki Kazuya, I have eradicated all the curses and diseases of your clan. The holy light that remains in your bodies will protect you from disease and disaster until you die of natural causes."

"that's it."

Liszt turned and walked towards the exit, and Muzan followed silently, with nothing else in his eyes.

Mushikawa Miya, who was lying on the ground, tried desperately to get up and roar, but how could they break free from the paralysis inflicted by Lister?

At this moment, Ubuyashiki Yoya suddenly heard a voice coming from inside his brain.

[If the Pillars want to seek revenge, do not stop them. I promise that no one will get hurt.]

Ubuyashiki pondered over these words carefully.

Is that man trying to accomplish something through the Demon Slayer Corps' pillars...

"what!!!!"

Fushigi Miyabi finally stood up and rushed towards Lister and Muzan.

"Stop! I want you to stop!"

The next second, Lister and Muzan disappeared from the spot, leaving Fushigi Sane empty-handed.

"Ah!!! Damn it! Damn it! Damn it!"

"Kibutsuji Muzan! I'm going to kill you! Kill you!"

Several pillars climbed up one after another.

They all remained silent. Although they were not injured, everyone felt extremely heavy-hearted.

Because they understood one thing...

Muzan Kibutsuji has overcome the sunlight, and the human next to her is also extremely powerful. He can even release holy light that can heal everything. He is like a god.

At this time, Ubuyashiki Yoya, who had fully recovered, stood up.

"Guys, I know where they're going to go."

"It's up to you to decide how to choose."

……

"Liszt, where are we going now?"

Muzan and Liszt were walking on the country road, the bright sunshine making Muzan look comfortable.

"To the refugee area."

Ok?

Wuzan was stunned and didn't react.

Why go to a refugee camp filled with poor people?

In the past, when she created ghosts, she preferred to look for people with dark hearts in places like this, but now there is no need to go there at all.

How nice it would be to go to a city festival for fun and parade?

Thinking of this, she suddenly became interested and took Liszt's arm.

“I know some fun places.”

"Although you are a noble, you have never seen our modern neighborhoods. I will take you to eat delicious food and experience many interesting things."

After saying this, Muzan felt an inexplicable sense of absurdity in his heart.

I never thought she would say something like this one day.

Maybe it’s because I’m in such a good mood today.

First, Lister was willing to come to her world, and then he fulfilled his thousand-year dream. Before that, he also annoyed the Demon Slayer Corps and made them experience despair. More importantly, it was Lister who took action just now.

To protect her.

Whenever I think of this, I feel extremely at ease and don't have to worry about being threatened at all.

"To the refugee area."

Seeing that Liszt had no intention of changing his mind, Wuzan felt helpless, but still answered happily.

"Okay, as you say."

Anyway, where can't the two of them go in this world?

……

The island country in Demon Slayer World is in an era of transition from the old to the new.

The most prosperous areas already have high-rise buildings and trams, and long-distance passenger trains have also been opened.

In other places, things are still the same. People adhere to their traditional lifestyle, working from sunrise to sunset, and using oil lamps and firewood.

There are even many refugee areas around some remote large villages and towns.

The people living here are extremely poor. Many of them survive by stealing and committing crimes, and many of them act as thugs.

The public security is extremely poor and cannot be managed at all.

Human life is extremely cheap here, and human trafficking is rampant.

Then why doesn’t the government deal with the refugee areas?

Because the cost of processing is too high, and there are many dignitaries who make money from the gray industry in the refugee area, and the labor here is really cheap.

In this way, the exploitation of high-ranking officials and the exclusion of ordinary civilians made it almost impossible for people in the refugee area to leave here for the rest of their lives, and they could only survive as the lowest class of people.

In such an environment, the evil in people's hearts will be manifested to the greatest extent.

That's why Muzan often came here in the past to look for suitable candidates.
