Demon Progenitor Development Project

The black cat Muzan was placed on the table, sprawled out, its cat bell clearly visible.

A needle was inserted into the cat's head, and bright red blood flowed continuously into a large urn that could hold dozens of cats.

Ubuyashiki Eiji stared intently, his eyes glazed and mesmerized, as the scarlet liquid dripped slowly into the overflowing jar.

He doesn't intend to do anything to Muzan right now, nor can he.

The hallucinogenic liquid produced by [Dezi] can cause demons to fall into a coma, but they will still wake up once stimulated.

Ubuyashiki Eiji calmed down and his expression gradually returned to normal, no longer looking like a starving beggar.

In a sense, calling him a beggar wouldn't be wrong.

When she first noticed the changes in her eldest son, the rapid healing of his wounds reminded her of Fujiwara Shugo's blood-drawing practices.

Ubuyashiki Eiji suddenly realized.

He had always found it strange that the Fujiwara Regent valued his eldest son so much, but since there were benefits to be had, he didn't investigate it too much.

Subsequent blood tests and changes in her son made Ubuyashiki Eiji realize the reason behind it all.

No wonder!

It turns out it was for drug testing and training of drug users!

At the time, using his knowledge of Ubuyashiki Eiji, he interpreted Fujiwara Shugo's premeditated actions.

Is blood capable of healing wounds and even diseases?

Ubuyashiki Eiji gradually came to understand everything.

Therefore, the aging Ubuyashiki Eiji chose to send someone to steal the results.

Ubuyashiki Eiji was heartbroken that his own son had been kidnapped by Fujiwara Shugo.

The cabbages in my garden were dug up by someone, stem and all!

We've lost a fortune!

Kibutsuji Muzan doesn't care about blood relatives at all, has no respect for his family whatsoever, and his domineering behavior towards Fujiwara no Shugo further made Ubuyashiki Eiji realize:

— Fujiwara no Shugo must be killed.

Otherwise, it would be impossible to gain any benefit from them.

Only in this way can it be brought under control.

Eiji Ubuyashiki didn't believe anyone would willingly share the fruits of their careful cultivation with others. In order to monopolize these fruits, it was natural to exclude their owner—or rather, return them.

With the person dead, there was naturally no reason for a member of the Ubuyashiki family to remain with the Fujiwara Kita family.

When the man returned, Ubuyashiki Eiji felt that although he didn't really care about his sickly eldest son, he had done a good job of maintaining appearances and was able to salvage some of the relationship and mend the emotional rift.

Ubuyashiki Eiji clearly doesn't know that the dead are the strongest white moonlight, and no one can surpass the dead!

The dead are constantly glorified in memory and eventually become an irreversible myth.

Eiji Ubuyashiki, who had gone to great lengths to persuade the Emperor to assassinate Fujiwara no Shugo, was waiting at home for his harvest to come home after successfully delivering the final blow.

The result was... Ubuyashiki Tsukihiko/Kimuzaki Muzan and his gang simply ran away, not even returning to their own home, heading towards freedom.

Eiji Ubuyashiki: His smile gradually disappeared

There was no other way; the world was so big, and Ubuyashiki Noboru couldn't go out and search in a big way. He had to put his plans on hold and study the blood he had stolen in the chaos first.

Lady Tokuko, who repeatedly sent him letters expressing her desire to return to Kyoto, thus came into his view.

Let's just use this stupid woman as a test subject.

However, the first experiment failed, and the woman died.

Before her death, Lady Tokuko's face was contorted with rage as she stared incredulously at the cold gaze of her former husband as she fell.

After casually having the other person buried, Eishi didn't have much blood left. Considering the success rate, he chose to send his son, who had been sent to the countryside with Mrs. Tokuko.

The son harbored suspicions about the sudden death of Lady Tokuko. To be on the safe side, Ubuyashiki Eiji had to get rid of everyone related to her, making good use of their resources.

Ubuyashiki Eiji thought: They're all my bloodline, they should be pretty much the same.

However, the second experiment was not exactly a success either. The son survived, but became just as weak and sickly as the eldest son, and could only lie in bed all day.

Ubuyashiki Eiji was troubled, realizing that this blood could not be used directly and that he needed more relevant information.

So he kidnapped the doctor who was in charge of treating his eldest son.

It just so happened that the doctor was far from Kyoto in search of a certain medicinal herb, which made things convenient for him.

After capturing the doctor, Ubuyashiki Eiji subjected him to various forms of interrogation, but the stubborn doctor refused to say anything.

The doctor stubbornly believed that the person who kidnapped him by murder was no good person and told Ubuyashiki Eiji everything he wanted.

However, the medicine boy and servants who were with the doctor were not so reliable, and they were still able to get some useful information out of them, such as the fact that the blue spider lily is an indispensable ingredient in the treatment prescription.

Having gleaned insights into the doctor's character from these people's fragmented words, Ubuyashiki Eiji begins to coerce the doctor, who is like a saw-through gourd, into opening his mouth by threatening their lives.

The doctor was a bachelor and a stubborn man; he simply committed suicide.

Doctor: Once I'm dead, you won't be a threat to me!

Ubuyashiki Hideshi:...

Obviously, even whipping a corpse won't make it stand up and speak.

Frustrated, Ubuyashiki Eiji had no choice but to put it aside for the time being.

Spring goes and autumn comes, time gradually passes, and Eiji Ubuyashiki gradually moves from middle age to old age. In Kyoto, where the sanitation conditions are worrying, the elderly are naturally prone to getting sick.

When Ubuyashiki Eiji fell ill and was bedridden, he heard the elders of the clan discussing the next head of the family.

"Ying Shi's health is getting worse and worse. It's definitely time to choose a successor first."

“That’s right, a family can’t function without a leader.”

I'm not dead yet!

Is this something you use and then throw away?

The aged and frail Ubuyashiki Eiji couldn't even utter a roar; his mind was filled with thoughts of being abandoned and replaced.

After trying to express his thoughts, Ubuyashiki Eiji was advised by the clan elders.

"Yingshi, you should focus on recovering. The burden of being the head of the family is too heavy for you. Your health has deteriorated over the years, partly due to our oversight..."

Ubuyashiki Eiji could no longer hear; all he could see was the clan elder's troubled and refusal expression.

The only way to get out of this situation is for me to get better.

This thought grew stronger in Eiji Ubuyashiki's mind.

Faced with the elders' persuasion, Ubuyashiki Eiji finally agreed with a smile, his smile as steadfast as ever.

Fear of losing everything drove Ubuyashiki Eiji to recklessly drink the sealed blood (expired blood?).

The result was encouraging.

Unlike his wife and children, Eiji Ubuyashiki, blessed by Lady Luck, successfully recovered his health and regained the energy of his youth, thus reclaiming his position as head of the family.

The clan elders were also dealt with one by one by the restored Ubuyashiki Eiji, and from then on, he was the only voice in the clan, becoming the dictator of the clan.

After gaining power, the first thing Eiji Ubuyashiki did was to explore the secret in that blood, and that's when he discovered it.

His son, whom he had completely forgotten, recovered his health early and secretly plotted to overthrow him.

Once a conspiracy is discovered, it can only end in failure.

Realizing that his son, whom he had initially considered a failure, had successfully developed a similar body to him over time, Ubuyashiki Eiji immediately dug up the grave where Mrs. Tokuko was buried.

result……

Looking at the bizarre and deformed mass of flesh and blood inside the coffin, Eiji Ubuyashiki felt a wave of nausea, but he removed the coffin lid, which was covered in bright red scratches, and took it back with him.

After a period of observation and research, it was discovered that this mass of flesh and blood, named "Lady Tokuko," fed on insects when it was buried in the soil, unlike Ubuyashiki Eiji, who still ate normal human food.

[Dezi] Only eats the flesh and blood of various creatures, and is extremely afraid of light.

But what struck Eiji Ubuyashiki as odd was that Tokuko was able to get pregnant.

After watching a deformed mass of flesh produce one human-like infant after another, and after getting used to the way [Tokuko]'s sanity-draining art style, Ubuyashiki Eiji fell into deep thought.

This kind of "Dezi" doesn't seem to be very useful.
