Reincarnation as Lower Rank Five in Demon Slayer

Doki retreated to the wall, her back pressed tightly against it. Seeing Li Lei's fearless demeanor, Doki was momentarily at a loss for what to do.

"Just tell me what you want to ask, and I... I'll listen carefully to your questions."

Ultimately, unable to withstand Li Lei's pressure, Daki immediately became very obedient.

"Hahaha, Daki, I thought you would call your brother Gyutaro out. I didn't expect you to be so smart, knowing that your brother Gyutaro is injured right now, and even if he came out, he wouldn't be a match for me together."

Li Lei was satisfied with Daki's actions. After all, he had just obtained a large amount of Muzan's blood, and while his body was being strengthened, he also felt a craving for human flesh and blood.

Li Lei could sense that if he were to eat anything containing a large amount of Muzan's blood, he might enter a state of unconscious demonization. He dared not even imagine what he would do then.

Li Lei doesn't dare to launch a positional blood battle against Daki and Gyutaro now, not because he can't win, but because there's too much Muzan blood in Daki and Gyutaro, who are Upper Moon demons, and he wouldn't dare to consume it even if he won.

"Yes! I also have an older brother, Gyutaro."

Reminded by Li Lei, Duo Ji instantly remembered that she had a powerful older brother and that she didn't need to be afraid of him.

"I have an older brother, Lower Moon One. You...you shouldn't make such unreasonable demands."

Seeing Li Lei's scarlet eyes, a powerful pressure arose in Doki's heart, and her slightly firm attitude instantly softened.

Seeing the strange change in Doki's attitude, Li Lei scratched his head, somewhat puzzled. What was wrong with Doki? She seemed so easy to bully and not very smart.

"Hmm—let's try it out and see how Daki reacts, whether she's really that easy to bully."

"Daki, I remember your official identity here is a courtesan. You should know the basic requirements of a courtesan. Come over here and give me a back massage."

Li Lei tried to make an unreasonable request to see how Duo Ji would react, as he was very curious about what Duo Ji would do.

"A back massage? He wants me to massage his back, he wants me, the Upper Moon demon, to massage his back? How dare he? I am the Upper Moon demon, you know... I..."

At this moment, Doki recalled the scene of being defeated by Li Lei in a few moves, and the scene of being powerless to resist him. Suddenly, Doki felt that she was just an ordinary ghost in front of Li Lei, terribly weak.

As Li Lei's defeated opponent, Duo Ji suddenly realized that he was so much stronger than her, and his request didn't seem too unreasonable. Besides, Lower Moon 1 Lei already looked quite handsome.

At worst, when I'm stronger than him in the future, I can just let him beat me back. Just like that, Doki instantly convinced herself and started massaging Li Lei's back.

Li Lei enjoyed the excellent back massage service from the fallen princess and couldn't help but sigh. This fallen princess was clearly afraid of him. She agreed to his unreasonable request without even struggling.

Feeling the gentle yet firm touch on his back, Li Lei felt a sense of comfort, though the technique was not very skillful.

But then I thought about it again. It's already absurd that Daki, as an Upper Moon demon, would give someone a back massage. If her back massage technique were that skilled, then who would be qualified to practice on her? Muzan, perhaps!

Li Lei narrowed his eyes, suddenly realizing he understood why Daki knew the back-massaging technique. As for why she wasn't skilled at it, simple! Muzan rarely came.

"You're tired. How are you feeling? Do you want to push yourself a little harder?"

"Hmm, add some points. Also, about Daki, your technique isn't very skillful; you need to practice more."

Daki was speechless. She had only asked casually, and Daki actually wanted it? Helpless, Daki had no choice but to do as she was told; it was her own fault for being so talkative.

And so, Li Lei enjoyed a free back massage, while Duo Ji's technique improved considerably.

Next, Li Lei suggested massaging his legs, but Duo Ji refused. After a minute of negotiation, Duo Ji finally agreed to massage Li Lei's head.

This time, Daki wouldn't massage his head, but Li Lei said that was fine as long as he put his heart into it, and so Li Lei spent a wonderful night.

The following evening, Li Lei visited Duo Ji's residence again, this time not for a massage. He had something he hadn't mentioned the previous night; unfortunately, Duo Ji's massage had been so pleasurable that he'd forgotten what he wanted to say. He was sure he wouldn't forget this time.

Inside Doki's room, Li Lei sat opposite her with a smile, leisurely sipping tea made from wisteria blossoms. Doki, sitting opposite him, covered her nose, her face showing displeasure.

"What happened last night is over, what are you doing here? And do you think you can just throw away that wisteria tea in your hand?!" Daki said firmly.

Seeing Daki's tough attitude, Li Lei was immediately filled with questions (ー_ー) ? ? ?

What's wrong, Daki? Is your temper unpredictable, changing every day? For some reason, your aura tonight is different from last night. Could it be that you've broken through in strength, become stronger, and think you're invincible again, wanting to test your skills against yourself?

"Daki, it's only been a day, and you've already grown wings. Now you dare to talk back to me. Do you think I'm easy to talk to? Do you think you're all that important now?"

Li Lei's smile vanished instantly, his demeanor changed drastically, and he coldly questioned Duo Ji.

Sensing the sudden change in Li Lei's aura, Duo Ji suppressed her inner fear and revealed her trump card.

"Tired. I know about how you helped the human child yesterday. As a ghost, how could you help a human? Aren't you afraid the adults will blame you?"

As if she had found Li Lei's weakness, Doki became even more arrogant in her manner of speaking.

"Oh—you just found out? I thought you knew last night."

Hearing what Daki said, Li Lei's attitude was indifferent.

"Aren't you—aren't you afraid?"

Doki was somewhat puzzled. She had only learned about Li Lei's help to others from the ribbon clone today. She had thought that she had obtained leverage over Lower Moon One Li Lei so that she could blackmail him.

But Daki immediately realized that she was wrong; Lower Moon One wasn't afraid of Muzan's wrath at all.

“Daki, you seem to have misunderstood something. For Muzan-sama, nothing else matters except for the blue spider lily and the demons that can overcome sunlight.”

Lord Muzan won't blame me for saving people, so why should I be afraid?

But you, Daki, are the one who should be afraid, because...

As Li Lei spoke, his eyes were fixed on Duo Ji, and his entire body erupted with power. A powerful killing intent, accompanied by malice, surged towards Duo Ji like a tidal wave.

"You, you, you—you've gotten stronger again! That's impossible! How could you have gotten so much stronger in just a few days?"

unless……"

Li Lei: "Unless Lord Muzan bestows his blood upon me, I can't possibly become stronger in a short period of time, right, Daki!"

Upon hearing Li Lei's words, Daki instantly understood the reason for his increased strength. But why did Muzan give Lower Moon One so much blood? Because a small amount of blood couldn't possibly make him this much stronger.

Doki was frightened by the strength Li Lei displayed, because a low-level demon could initiate a positional blood battle against a high-level demon, and the winning demon could devour the losing demon to become stronger.

Just two days ago, Lower Moon One Rui was as strong as my brother, but now he has received blood from Lord Muzan and has become even stronger than my brother. If he launches a blood battle against my brother and me now, won't my brother and I be doomed?

"I'm tired. I was wrong. I'll never do it again. Please forgive me and let me go."

The threat of death made Daki immediately submit, running to Li Lei to massage his back, demonstrating her usefulness, and saying that if Lei launched a positional blood battle and ate her, there would be no one to massage his back, which would be such a pity.
