Demon Slayer: The Journey That Began When I Became Yoriichi's Sister
Chapter 45 Serve the Pope Well
The headquarters of the Eternal Bliss Cult was not in the city. The man learned about the cult through other channels and gradually became aware of it.
He was among the most devout followers of the Eternal Bliss Cult, and even met the cult's founder, Domo, in person to explain his troubles to him.
It was around that time that the patriarch mentioned to him that he could send his daughter to the church.
At least we can get food.
He never doubted that the Church of Eternal Bliss was a cult or anything like that.
Because Doma, the founder of the cult, possessed seven-colored eyes and pure white oak hair, he was able to communicate with the heavens.
When this was mentioned, the man couldn't help but glance at Yuko a few more times.
Those peculiar pupils were no less striking than those of Douma.
Ignoring his observation, Yu Zi asked, "Approximately how many people are in the sect?"
"More than two hundred people, the patriarch... that evil spirit, seems unwilling to continue increasing the number."
“Some people in the church had mentioned expansion, but he refused them all.”
There can be conflicts between religious sects, just like Buddhism and Taoism sometimes fight over followers and territory.
There are very few religious sects that are unwilling to expand outwards.
They probably didn't want to make a big deal out of it.
Yuko thought to herself.
After his battle with Yoriichi, Muzan became a rat lacking the magnanimity of a villainous boss; he would never allow his subordinates to be so arrogant.
At least, he absolutely won't until he has completely overcome the sun.
"Have there never been any cases of girls going missing before?"
“…” After a moment of silence, the man said in a low voice, “Yes, but everyone just thinks they went to paradise to enjoy themselves.”
……
It truly is a paradise.
This is a hell of a joke.
In the silence, the man suddenly said, "We've arrived."
Yu Zi looked in the direction he was pointing and saw a magnificent mansion in front of her, with people coming and going, and there seemed to be quite a few people.
Yuko glanced at the passersby on both sides of the street, amazed that it was located so openly in the city.
Although it is not a prosperous area, but only on the edge.
"Go back."
The man opened his mouth, but in the end he could only nod helplessly.
After watching the man leave, Yu Zi glanced at the sky; it was still a little while before it got dark.
It's common knowledge that evil spirits only come out at night.
She wandered around the city for a while, during which she also saw two Demon Slayer Corps swordsmen.
Judging from their appearance, they probably didn't come for the Eternal Bliss Sect; they were just passing through and their purpose didn't overlap with hers.
Yuko was truly relieved.
It wasn't that running into them would be awkward; the main concern was that she would have to investigate Doma while also thinking about rescuing people.
The quality of the Demon Slayer Corps in recent generations is truly worrying.
Do you think he can fight the Twelve Demon Moons?
They simply don't have that capability.
As night fell, Yuko wrapped herself up tightly, making herself unrecognizable, and slipped inside carrying her Nichirin Blade.
As for the demon blade she named 'Shura', she put it away.
She could ensure that Doma wouldn't see through her true nature as one of their own, but if she took that sword, things might change.
Moreover, for demons, fighting among their own kind is basically a matter of expending energy, seeing who has stronger attack power and who recovers faster.
The weaker party will basically be swallowed up by the other party.
Even ghosts can become stronger by eating other ghosts.
There is even a concept of a sequential battle between the twelve Ghost Months.
Evening is when evil spirits come out to roam, so the Eternal Bliss Cult has not only not quieted down, but its number of followers has actually increased considerably.
Yuko lay on the roof, her brows furrowed.
This is troublesome.
Getting to meet Doma among this group of fanatical believers would probably not be an easy task.
She won't have much time.
Yuko moved forward in silence, and the further she went in, the fewer believers she encountered.
It seems that not everyone can meet with the founder at any time; the vast majority of believers only pray fervently outside.
Suddenly, two figures dressed as religious believers appeared before her.
One male and one female.
The man was around thirty or forty years old, while the woman was extremely young, around ten years old.
"When you go in later, you must serve the patriarch well," the man instructed. "This is an honor that many people dream of but cannot obtain."
"I, I know!"
Yu Zi lowered her eyes slightly, seeing through the girl's pounding heart.
That was not fear.
"Go ahead." The man only saw her off a short distance before bowing and leaving.
The rest was basically cleared out.
Given the current situation, if things escalate, these believers will probably arrive at Doma's residence in three minutes... no, even less.
The girl, her heart pounding with excitement, walked toward the door.
The girl was thin and frail, clearly not someone of great wealth or status, but rather someone struggling to make ends meet, going hungry twice a day.
Perhaps she had already decided to sacrifice something in exchange for the conditions to survive, but she could never have imagined that what she would have to give up was exactly what she longed for.
The girl arrived at the door, knocked gracefully, and then stepped inside with timidity.
Yuko touched the ground with her toes and floated down to the roof like a falling leaf.
She lifted the tile and looked inside.
"The children today are so cute!"
The demon named Doma, with his white oak-colored hair, sat casually on a futon, propping his cheek up with one hand as he looked at the girl.
The girl knelt on the ground and said respectfully, "Your Holiness, I am your beloved son who has come to serve you tonight."
Douma smiled and said, "Aiko, your name is very nice too."
Judging from the voice and tone alone, one would never guess that this person was actually an ugly demon.
But under Yuko's all-seeing gaze, the other party's demonic nature was clearly revealed.
This posture... it really is the Upper Moon.
She said she vaguely remembered the name, and it seemed to be related to...righteousness...water column...
Yuko suddenly remembered where she had seen his name before.
Giyu among the pillars, Doma among the demons...
That seems to be the meaning.
She couldn't remember some of it very clearly.
Moreover, this character probably didn't appear in the first season, otherwise, seeing the other person's appearance should have reminded her of something.
Aiko knelt respectfully on the ground: "Your Holiness is too kind."
"Hmm..." Douma tilted his head, hesitatingly saying, "Although I also really want to enjoy you as soon as possible..."
Aiko's heart was beating even faster, and her cheeks were flushed.
"But I also feel embarrassed when there are outsiders present."
Douma suddenly looked up and smiled as he gazed at the ceiling.
"Don't you think so, lovely lady?"
Aiko raised her head slightly, wondering who the outsider the other person was, when a figure fell from the roof and landed lightly in front of her.
Aiko exclaimed in shock, "Who are you?!"
"Could it be that they intend to assassinate the Pope?!"
Given that Yuko was wearing a straw hat and a large cloak, and had jumped off a roof, it's understandable that she would think that way.
Just as Aiko was about to scream for help, Ikuko had no choice but to knock her unconscious with a karate chop.
After helping her to the ground, Yuko looked up at Doma, who was sitting to the side with a smile.
That's really perceptive...
Upper Moon... Land...
