Demon Slayer: The Journey That Began When I Became Yoriichi's Sister

Nakime's head grew back from her neck.

As long as it's not a decapitation by a Nichirin Blade or Muzan's brutal methods, it can be completely restored.

Upper Moon's regeneration speed is extremely fast; within a few breaths, Nakime's head had completely regrown back from her neck.

But before she could say anything more, her vision suddenly blurred, and her head, which had just recovered, was removed again.

What came into view was Muzan's dark face, so gloomy it seemed to drip water.

Nakime opened her mouth: "I am very sorry, Muzan-sama, I thought you were being attacked at the time."

Muzan crushed her head, the veins on her forehead bulging like tiny snakes: "Idiot! Do you know that you gave that woman a chance to breathe?"

Nakime's head showed signs of remodeling again, but this time she didn't know whether she should let it grow back.

"Where is that woman? Find her." Muzan asked with a grim expression.

Nakime's head regenerated: "Found it, Lord Muzan."

With a grim expression, Muzan ordered, "Bring her here."

He had no interest in dealing with the other humans trapped in the Infinity Castle, since there were other demons and Upper Moons around anyway.

All they need to do is successfully stall them.

As long as he devours that woman, it doesn't matter how many humans or pillars there are.

"Understood." Nakime didn't dare to slack off in the slightest and quickly picked up the pick in her hand to approach the strings.

He planned to open a door at Yuko's feet and pull her over.

However, at that moment, Muzan's gloomy expression suddenly changed.

what happened?

His body...

"Wait!" Muzan quickly raised his hand to stop him.

Nakime paused, turning her head in confusion. The pick was already attached to the strings, just waiting to be plucked.

Muzan clutched his chest, feeling the strange sensation within his body.

Something is wrong...

What is it...?

Muzan's pupils suddenly contracted, as if he had sensed something.

poison! ! !

Is it that woman's Blood Demon Art?

No...that's not right...

Tamayo!!!

Recalling Tamayo's behavior at the time, that woman appeared strangely in front of him and gave him a punch that felt neither painful nor sore.

At that moment, something was left inside his body.

No wonder... no wonder that woman was determined to fight him to the bitter end.

In that situation, if she lost, she would have nothing.

Because she knew the poison was about to erupt, she forcibly pulled him along, trying to restrain him and wait for the poison to fully erupt.

Muzan belatedly felt a chill; if it weren't for Nakime's misjudgment, he might have really fallen into that woman's hands.

Muzan's crimson eyes stared intently at Nakime.

Nakime, seeing that he hadn't moved for a long time, asked, "Lord Muzan?"

Muzan's expression shifted between light and dark: "It's nothing. Have the others stop their advance, understand?"

"understand……"

Muzan disappeared from the spot and hid in a safe location. He needed to break down the toxins in his body first.

He didn't yet understand the effects of these toxins, but he was sure that once they were broken down, everything would be fine.

……

On the other side, Yuko, unfortunately, smashed through layer after layer of wooden planks and finally landed on the ground.

"it hurts……"

Yuko stood up with a slightly twisted body, her injuries from the fall healing rapidly.

Yuko looked up at the ceiling above her head, peering through the layers of holes.

It's so tall it's almost frightening.

"I wonder if the other people who fell from that height are alright."

Yuko retracted the blood covering her body back into her body, and even her blood-soaked clothes quickly returned to their original state.

So……

Where is the knife she dropped?

It should be somewhere around here.

Yuko looked around. On the floating platform in front of her, a group of evil spirits of different appearances were gathered together, as if they were examining something.

The wooden platform was completely suspended in mid-air, about ten meters away from the corridor where she was.

The next moment, the corridor tilted, and Yuko broke through the wooden planks and landed on the platform.

……

"A Nichirin Blade! It's a Nichirin Blade!"

"Those damned demon hunters!"

"Are they already in? Kill them, find them and kill them!"

A group of demons surrounded Yuko's lost Nichirin Blade, arguing loudly like they were in a marketplace.

"Give way, give way."

Yu Zi, expressionless, pushed aside the figures and squeezed her way to the center.

"Who is it? How rude! Don't you know the order of arrival?" Ghost said with dissatisfaction.

"Excuse me, may I pass by?"

"That's more like it." The crowded road ahead rustled and parted to make way for them.

Yu Zi raised an eyebrow: "I didn't realize you guys were so reasonable."

The ghost saw her face clearly and was speechless.

"Humans...human beings..."

Upon hearing this, the previously crowded figures instantly dispersed, and a series of massive figures stared intently at Yuuko, who had walked up to the Nichirin Blade.

"It's human!"

"No, she has horns."

"It certainly doesn't feel like a human's aura."

"Bullshit, have you ever seen a ghost that good-looking?"

"...I've never seen it before."

"Isn't that lady quite beautiful?"

"Shut up! You're asking for it!"

"As long as you don't reveal your name, it'll be fine."

"Shouldn't that person be handsome?"

"Who are you talking about? Shouldn't that person be called 'cute'?"

The ghosts were arguing amongst themselves.

Yuko's eyelids twitched. Muzan really was a cross-dressing pervert.

A ghost seemed to be questioning her: "Hey! Are you a human or a ghost?"

"Human! It's definitely a human!" a ghost started to jeer.

"Kill her!"

Looking at the Nichirin Blade stuck in the floor, Yuko replied, "Is it possible that I'm a demon too?"

"So that's how it is. You're a ghost too. You scared me to death."

"That can't be right! She looks completely human! That thing on her head might be a decoration!"

“That’s because we’re on different levels.” Yuko said expressionlessly as she drew her Nichirin Blade.

“She makes a good point. I once saw an adult who looked very much like a human.”

"That person looks very much like a human."

"What?! So that means..."

"She doesn't even have numbers in her eyes."

"Hey, are you idiots? She pulled out that knife!" Someone pointed out the key to the problem.

"Damn demon hunter!" The demons' hair stood on end. "How dare she deceive us! Tear her apart!"

The ghosts swarmed around, almost falling for the damned ghost hunter's trick.

"Don't you recognize me?" Yuko tilted her head, holding her Nichirin Blade as she looked at the demons.

The ghosts stopped in their tracks, suspicious and uneasy.

Could it really be some important figure?

Why are humans so calm when they see them?

You Gui decided to test him: "No... I don't know him."

Yu Zi clicked her tongue: "A noob I don't even recognize."

"?"

A cold light swept across, splashing out a ring of cold air.

One after another, headless figures collapsed, turning into ashes and vanishing.
