Chapter 46 "Don't be fooled by the ghost, he is..."

000 choked for a moment, but quickly regained its composure and tentatively asked, "You said you dreamt about doing a mission when you were little, and the mission target... what was their name?"

Honestly, the world has had so many problems that it's almost gotten used to them.

Azhi didn't think as much as 000. She pondered for a moment, then frowned slightly: "I didn't dream about this."

"But maybe next time I dream about him, I'll know who he is." The girl joked, not taking it to heart.

000: […………]

—The dramatic rise and fall of the system.

000 felt she still needed to take some time to go back to the system center to check again. The world was about to become like a sieve, and the memories that the host had cleared could still be remembered?

—This is utterly ridiculous.

Aori heard Tomioka Giyuu's breathing. His steps were both light and steady, and he ran at a consistently fast pace without showing any signs of fatigue.

But his sweat never stopped; the sweat seeped out, soaking his hair and then relentlessly flowing down the back of his neck.

She wiped her face a few times with her sleeve, then leaned against his back and whispered in the black-haired swordsman's ear, "Do you want to rest for a bit?"

At first, Azhi really wanted to straighten up and make herself look less useless, but she only lasted a few seconds before she reverted to her original form.

The road wasn't all smooth; even the slightest undulation made her lose her balance, so she could only obediently lie on the swordsman's broad back and wrap her arms around his neck.

This might explain why he's sweating so much; after all, there's no need to huddle together for warmth now.

However, Yoshiyuki Tomioka did not quite grasp what Aori meant. He subconsciously thought that the girl was feeling unwell somewhere, so he turned his head to carefully observe Aori behind him.

The girl's complexion was normal, and there was a faint light in her dark eyes. He couldn't tell that she was in any discomfort, but he still stopped.

It won't take too long either way.

Azhi wasn't paying attention when a fluffy ponytail suddenly brushed against her nose, making her feel itchy. She couldn't help but rub her nose and almost sneezed.

Then Giyu Tomioka squatted down to make it easier for Aori to get down.

After they stopped, the rabbit that was following not far away naturally stopped as well.

"What's wrong?" he asked, puzzled, because this distance was not a problem for Giyu Tomioka, and it shouldn't be time to replace him yet.

Meeting the gaze of the flesh-haired swordsman, Giyu Tomioka glanced at the girl who had stretched her limbs and said briefly, "Take a rest."

When traveling for a long time, we always prepare water in advance. As soon as Azhi shook her wrist, a water bottle was handed to her.

She blinked, feeling that her lips were indeed a little dry, so she took a few small sips of water from the kettle.

"Aren't you going to drink?" Aori felt that compared to herself, who hadn't sweated much, Giyu Tomioka and Sabito were the ones who needed to replenish their fluids the most.

Without any further polite refusal, Giyu Tomioka and Sabito accepted the water directly. They didn't drink as elegantly as Ori, and could even be described as quite rough when they did so.

The swordsmen tilted their heads back, the excess water pouring from the jugs sliding down their chins, down their bulging Adam's apples, and into their collars. They casually wiped away the remaining water with the backs of their hands.

Azhi stared blankly, genuinely feeling that their collars probably held more water.

But she didn't dare to complain, because it was clearly a one-to-two situation, and she couldn't win an argument with two people.

The packaging bag rustled as it was shaken, and Azhi remembered that she still had some packed food that she hadn't eaten. Yes, it was food that Kokushibo had bought for her before he left.

She looked at the pink packaging bag with a conflicted expression, feeling that Upper Moon shouldn't have poisoned it, since it was bought from a street stall and she hadn't seen any tricks after Kokushibo took over.

Thinking about it that way, it should be possible to share it.

Azhi thought it would be a shame to just throw it away, and they didn't know when they would be able to return to the Butterfly House. Eating something sweet to replenish their energy would be a good idea.

Just to be on the safe side, she tapped 000 before sharing: 【Is this snack poisonous?】

【No, not at all…】000 immediately knew what the clever Azhi was up to. Its tone was very sincere. 【But I suggest you either throw it away or keep it for yourself.】

Do not give any to Giyu Tomioka or Sabito, otherwise something terrible will happen when they find out the truth.

However, Azhi selectively listened to the previous affirmative answers. She nodded and breathed a sigh of relief, then began to distribute the money evenly.

Aside from the apple candy she ate at the beginning, what's left is still fructose, just with other kinds of fruit inside and a layer of sugar on the outside.

What sets it apart is the outer sugar coating; the owner clearly put a lot of thought into it, creating various animal shapes with remarkable realism using some unknown method.

When they bought it, it was a single serving. Ah Zhi pondered for a moment, then divided it appropriately.

I gave one to each of them; the rabbit one to Sabito, the goldfish one to Giyu, and kept the cat one for myself.

Ah Zhi was still smugly pleased with herself: "I'm so good at dividing things up!"

000: […………] A heavy sigh.

Perhaps because the girl would always bring out some snacks every time they met, Giyu Tomioka and Sabito had become very used to Ori feeding them.

Therefore, they didn't realize anything was wrong until they got their hands on it.

Sabito was even somewhat relieved, because Aori had actually thought to plan ahead and carried money with her, so that she wouldn't be penniless and go hungry in case of an accident...

Wait, does she even know what it means to be prepared?

The rabbit was very suspicious, no, he was extremely suspicious.

An ominous premonition crept in. The flesh-haired swordsman gazed at the adorable rabbit in his hand, and a mysterious and unpredictable glint gradually appeared in his eyes.

His voice was flat, revealing no emotion, as if even his feelings had vanished: "Did the Upper Moon give this to you?"

The moment he spoke, the whole world seemed to slow down, and every second became agonizing.

Azhi thought so. Her animal-like radar kicked in again, and the hairs on the back of her neck stood on end. She involuntarily took a step back.

She gradually realized that Kokushibo was a taboo subject between them, and mentioning it would cause unnecessary new disasters.

Azhi's thumb, which was gripping the wooden skewer, turned slightly white. She wanted to explain but didn't know where to begin, so she could only lower her head and mutter, avoiding the main point, "I... I bought it at the market."

The girl's ability to gloss over problems is really poor.

Even before he had started questioning her, he felt guilty and broke out in a cold sweat. His eyes darted around, avoiding eye contact, as if the words "something's wrong" were written all over his face.

Even 000 couldn't bear to watch anymore.

With a "crack," the wooden skewers held by Sabito and Giyu Tomioka were snapped in two, clearly demonstrating just how terrible their mood was.

Even the deliberately made cute smiles on the candy shells added a touch of mockery for their incompetence.

Of course, they didn't ask any further questions.

Yoshiyuki Tomioka was holding back a lot of anger, and this sudden outburst made his face look ugly.

He had no time to appreciate the magnificent sunset. The mixed warm light shone on him, but instead of making him look more gentle, it only highlighted his gloomy mood.

His deep blue eyes were as dark as a pool of thick ink, impenetrable to light, yet no light could penetrate them.

A sudden gust of wind swept across the open field, rustling the plants on both sides of the road and scattering the swordsmen's hair, causing half of their faces to be hidden in shadow.

In that brief interval, Giyu Tomioka and Sabito were able to piece together the truth of the matter from the few words they had just exchanged.

Before dawn, before they arrived, Upper Moon took Ori to stroll through the market.

Of course he could do that. The higher the level of the demon, the more accurate the mimicry. Upper Moon One could completely disguise himself as a normal human male without arousing suspicion from ordinary people.

Whether A-Zhi agrees or not makes no difference; he can easily coerce or deceive the girl into playing the role of "husband and wife" with him.

Even if such speculation is slightly off, it is probably not far off, which is why my worries have increased.

The problem has become very serious.

Sabito's brows furrowed deeper and deeper. He had a feeling that the beautiful, delicate, and not very clever A-Zhi was like prey, with many traps lurking around her.

She had little ability to protect herself and no time to avoid danger. If she wasn't taken away from the danger zone, she would fall completely into the trap.

The trap might lie beneath thorns, or it might be an abyss—anything is possible...

Admittedly, Nezuko's appearance tells everyone that not all demons are enemies of humans, but this is, after all, an event with an extremely low probability.

Sabito and Giyu Tomioka witnessed more of the horrific cases of people turning into demons who then turned against their own families and went on to harm humans. The words of demons had no credibility in the eyes of humans.

Regardless of whether Upper Moon One Kokushibo eats people or is good or bad, Aori should not have any further involvement with him.

—Not to mention that Kokushibo definitely had ulterior motives!

In Sabito's plan, once the next matter was settled, Aori should decisively withdraw and leave.

Whether she wants to stay in the Butterfly Mansion or... wants to live a different life, it's best if no more demons appear in her long remaining years.

In short, Azhi will never have the chance to taste what that cat-shaped fructose tastes like.

After witnessing the two not-so-thin wooden skewers turn to dust in the hands of Giyu Tomioka and Sabito, she obediently handed over the one she had in her hand as well.

The scene of "turning the stick into powder" that she had imagined did not occur. After taking it, the black-haired swordsman glanced at her and then put it back into the packaging bag with a speed that left no room for regret.

I don't know if I'll end up throwing it away or if I'll use it for something else.

Ah Zhi wisely refrained from asking, assuming the matter was over and secretly relieved, patting her chest: "Thank goodness, I'm still saved."

000: […………] You wait.

Sure enough, the moment the girl lowered her guard, a tone that was almost accusatory followed.

Yoshiyuki Tomioka had a serious expression. He pursed his lips, making the straight lip line appear even more pronounced due to the excessive force, which made him look very displeased. He spoke with a firm and resolute tone.

"Don't accept anything from ghosts!"

It was a very decisive sentence, without much embellishment, that made it clear to everyone that he loathed ghosts.

Azhi was indeed shocked. She was still confused when she saw her own reflection, slightly open-mouthed and looking blankly into the black-haired swordsman's deep pupils.

To be honest, she looks a little silly.

Azhi slightly curled her fingers, lowered her head with a hint of grievance, and tried to explain, but got stuck on the first sentence: "I..."

She knew the reason they were so angry was simply because they felt the ghost harbored malicious intentions, and she hadn't been vigilant enough. However, her confidence in acting this way stemmed from 00.

But this reason couldn't be said aloud.

Ah Zhi practically swore to the heavens that she genuinely just felt it would be a waste to throw it away, and that it wasn't right to keep it all to herself, so she thought of sharing it. There wasn't a single selfish motive involved.

If she had known things would get this complicated, she wouldn't have gone to all this trouble.

000: [I already reminded you.]

However, Sabito's reaction was, in his opinion, that Aori had nothing to say.

The girl with black hair and fair skin lowered her long eyelashes, still looking like she hadn't reacted yet. Her large, expressive eyes drooped down in a dejected manner, making her look innocent and pitiful.

She can easily win the pity of the outside world, but she is also most easily exploited by evil spirits with ulterior motives.

This is definitely not a problem that can be solved with a single sentence, because Aori did not realize the seriousness of the matter, which forced Sabito to abandon the appeasement policy he had always used and instead take some tough measures.

Long, calloused fingers lifted the girl's chin, the force not too strong, but just enough to keep her from escaping, forcing her to look directly at him.

Sabito repeated Tomioka Giyuu's words again, word by word: "Ori, don't accept anything from demons!"

He even added A-Zhi's name, and his usual smile disappeared. Beneath his slightly indifferent and calm expression lay a terrifying melancholy on the verge of exploding.

He didn't show this side of himself, but his stern face still made Azhi gasp for breath.

Because the flesh-haired swordsman was always gentle in front of her. Sometimes, even if she did something wrong, he would pretend to be a little angry, but his eyes would still be filled with a warm light, which was very easy to see through.

But now A-Zhi is a little unable to see through it.

Feeling as if she had been struck by a light electric current, she stared blankly at Sabito, who was speaking in a deep voice, and could hear nothing but his voice.

"Nezuko's condition is rare, but Tanjiro, being her brother, accidentally awakened her senses, but she is still in danger of losing control."

Sabito spoke slowly, as if wanting Azhi to hear clearly enough so that it would be etched in her heart and never be forgotten, "And Upper Moon One, he has lived for hundreds of years. You have no relation to him, yet he pretends to be harmless in front of you."

It wasn't just harmless; it revealed his intentions. Sabito didn't want to mention that word repeatedly in front of Aori, as he considered it blasphemous and disrespectful.

Sabito also knew that Ori was different from the Demon Slayer Corps members. She had never been on the front lines of demon slaying, and even in the Tokitoya, she was well protected and had not seen much darkness.

She even retains the innocence that many people her age have lost, which isn't a bad thing. Sabito and Giyu Tomioka had both tried to help her maintain this innocence.

But if she continues to treat Upper Moon One with this naive attitude, it would be extremely foolish.

The rabbit was trying to reason with her.

Azhi is not an unreasonable person. On the contrary, she is good at listening to other people's opinions, and when she realizes that she has some problems, she will slowly change them.

This is certainly a very good habit.

"Think about it carefully." He gently stroked her cheek with his other hand, a gesture full of affection, but Sabito's expression remained calm. "Don't be fooled by the ghost; he's lying to you."

"Even if a ghost pretends not to eat people, you still can't let your guard down. It may be able to endure for a while, but no one knows how long it can endure."

A thin layer of mist gradually filled her eyes, blurring everything in her vision. Azhi tilted her head back, moved her lips as if to say something, but her mind went blank.

Belatedly, she began to feel afraid, and her whole body turned into a puddle of water, limp and leaning backward as if unable to stand.

With just a slight tilt, a strong hand supported his lower back.

Azhi turned her head slightly to look.

It was Giyu Tomioka who extended his arm. When it came to things like persuading and convincing Aori, Sabito was usually the one to handle it, while he just watched from the sidelines.

The girl's weight was almost entirely on him, and through the thin fabric, Yoshiyuki Tomioka could feel Aori's thin back trembling slightly.

Giyu Tomioka was already frowning and looking at Sabito with disapproval. He felt that his goal had been achieved and the matter could end there.

However, Sabito didn't intend to let this end so easily this time; he was determined to make the girl realize just how terrifying Upper Moon One truly was.

His tone was flat, but the content was a horror story. The flesh-haired swordsman spoke with such certainty that Kokushibo had become the most cunning and manipulative demon in the world.

"You should know that every minute you spend with him, he might suddenly have a fit and devour you completely."

Sabito dissected the situation bit by bit, tearing away the hazy barrier between Kokushibo and Aori. He described each sentence in great detail, so much so that everyone who listened seemed to see the tragic scene before their eyes.

The vibrant young girl lay on the ground, her limbs broken, a large pool of blood pooling beneath her body. Her once bright eyes gradually dimmed until she was lifeless.

This is how most people who are attacked by ghosts die, but for some ghosts who call it "rare blood," they may not even have a corpse left; all their flesh and bones will be devoured.

Unconsciously, he used force in his palm. As if he were immersed in a nightmare, the blood in his body seemed to freeze together, and he felt cold to the bone.

What pulled him away was the soft cry of pain from A-Zhi in his ear. He quickly relaxed, and the thought that he didn't need to put so much pressure on the girl vanished like smoke.

Aori's eyes widened in shock at Sabito's suddenly emphasized last sentence. She instinctively didn't want to hear anything more terrifying from him, but the swordsmen of similar stature stood in front and behind, like an impenetrable net.

Ah Zhi was caught in the middle and could hardly move an inch.

Her eyes were slightly red, and tears were welling up inside, on the verge of falling. She was about to cry, but she didn't get to that point.

Without pausing, Sabito reached out and covered the girl's mouth, saying sternly, "Don't cry!"

It wasn't that he was too strict, but any sound the girl made at this moment would only make people waver. This situation was completely different from the past, so he simply avoided it from the source.

He wasn't actually blocking her mouth tightly; he could even feel the girl's lips moving in his palm. After a few movements, she quieted down, and her disordered breathing sprayed onto the pad of his index finger.

Azhi looked up at him, a blush quickly rising on her fair cheeks and spreading to her fair neck.

She wanted to pry open Sakoto's hands and tell him that she didn't want to cry, that her eyes were just a little sore, even though she did feel a tiny bit like crying inside.

However, this time she easily brushed the swordsman's hand away, or rather, he let go of it.

Azhi glared at him stubbornly: "I didn't cry!"

Her voice was thick with nasal tone, but no tears actually fell.

“I know.” Sabito smiled, his familiar gentleness returning to his eyes. He gently patted Aori’s head soothingly. “In short, Giyuu and I can no longer bear the pain of losing you.”

It's reassuring to hear words hidden deep in one's heart, and this is the first time he has so frankly expressed his concerns.

Sabito curled his lips into a smile, his eyes holding many things that Aori couldn't immediately comprehend, and sighed, "So you can't believe in ghosts, and you can't put yourself in danger."

Under that gaze, Azhi could only nod; she almost immediately surrendered unilaterally.

Ah Zhi simply cannot stand others showing weakness to her.

She wrinkled her nose, sensing something was wrong: "Have I been tricked?"

000: [Did they say something wrong?]

Azhi thought for a moment: "No."

000: [That works too.]

Yoshiyuki Tomioka stood silently to the side, giving the girl enough time to react.

Azhi truly experienced a highly volatile psychological journey, and the impact of this experience caused her mind to go on strike.

She squatted on the ground, hugging her knees, like a little mushroom growing in a corner, burying her face in her knees, not really wanting to deal with these two annoying guys.

She didn't look up, making her voice muffled, but she still tried her best to make it louder and her tone more fierce, so that the people in front of her would know how angry she was. "I'm telling you—"

"I'm angry! I'm really angry!"

But just before the end, Azhi couldn't help but gasp, and the tension in her voice dissipated, causing her trembling tone to soften and lose all its power.

Azhi: Damn it, I'm even angrier now.

She said that she couldn't beat them in a two-on-one situation!

Her legs went numb from squatting, so she shifted her weight and decided to turn to Sabito and throw a little tantrum: "I don't want you to carry me later!"

Sabito didn't object, but frowned as if deep in thought: "In that case, Giyuu will have to carry you the whole way. He hasn't had a break at all these past few days of continuous travel."

If anyone saw the Water Pillar of the Demon Slayer Corps in his current state, they would probably doubt their own eyes.

In front of outsiders, Qian Tu is gentle and serious in his dealings with others, and it is impossible to tell that he has a mischievous side that he likes to tease people in private.

But when he's being funny, he's completely serious, and Ah Zhi usually can't find anything wrong with him, and this time was no exception.

Although she didn't look at him, Azhi, whose ears were still perked up, naturally heard those words. She bit her lip, and her petite body stiffened for a moment.

So in the end, it was Aori who reluctantly let Sabito carry her the last leg of the journey :)

********

Just a hundred meters from the Butterfly Mansion, A-Zhi was put down. The sun had already set, and the moon began to perform its function of illuminating the earth.

As soon as she stood up, Azhi felt her legs were a little sore. She bent over slightly and massaged them casually, while looking around.

Actually, there was a wooden fence surrounding the area, so you couldn't see what was inside at all. But as they got closer, the memories hidden in the corners of Azhi's mind gradually resurfaced, and a few vague impressions slowly emerged.

Returning to the Butterfly Mansion after many years, A-Zhi felt both familiar and strange.

Compared to her feelings of "feeling apprehensive about returning home," Giyu Tomioka and Sabito didn't think too much about it.

They watched Ah Zhi's movements in silence, their usually sharp eyes strangely dull.

The girl's skin was delicate, especially in places where it was not usually exposed to sunlight. On her two snow-white and shapely legs, there were two bright red and clear handprints near the bends of her knees.

Azhi then began to rub that spot, her slender fingers digging into the delicate flesh, leaving a fleshy mark.

It evokes images of freshly baked, soft bread with a delicate, pleasant aroma.

Sagittarius swore he didn't use much force when he carried the person on his back. Of course, he didn't have any intimate thoughts while he was focused on getting back as soon as possible.

The reason is that, in their minds, the Butterfly Mansion is the only place where they can truly feel at ease.

Having briefly lost Azhi, they didn't want it to happen again, so when the girl was within their sight, they subconsciously wanted to look at her more.

As a result, Giyu Tomioka and Sabito witnessed this rather enchanting scene firsthand, and their deep-seated fantasies, whether clear to them or not, grew like wild grass in their hearts.

000: [Stand up straight, don't look so slumped.]

Although 000 always thought it was a good thing that Aori was slow to react, she didn't expect that the slow-witted girl wouldn't even realize the problem of being on guard.

[What's wrong?] Azhi was completely confused.

She withdrew her gaze from her surroundings, unaware that at the same time, Sabito and Giyu Tomioka awkwardly looked away.

Compared to her, Aori did notice that Giyu Tomioka and Sabito were standing very straight, almost like streetlights on both sides of the street.

Although they were all looking to the side with blank expressions, the tips of their ears were visibly red, indicating that they were very hot.

Azhi asked directly, though she was a little doubtful: "Is it... very hot?"

"…………"

Qintu cleared his throat: "It's not hot."

Yoshiyuki Tomioka looked ahead and said, "Let's go in."

Azhi tilted her head, looking at their awkward expressions, and after a moment, nodded.

As they slowly walked to the door and were about to knock, a commotion suddenly came from behind it.

It's really noisy.

There was more than one person among them, and among them was a clear male voice that A-Zhi recognized.

********

Zenitsu Agatsuma noticed very early on that his friend Tanjiro Kamado was becoming restless, as if he was anxiously waiting for something.

Instead of resting in bed to recover from his broken ribs, Zenitsu Agatsuma, along with Inosuke Hashibira, blocked his way as he passed by the door for the eighth time today, seemingly by chance.

Hashibira Inosuke, who had been dragged over, hadn't considered this possibility at all. He had even beaten up Zenitsu Agatsuma when he was persuaded to come and catch people earlier, and he was picking his nose without doing anything.

"Tell me, what's the secret?" The blond-haired boy put his hands on his hips, his eyebrows raised, and accidentally aggravated his wound, immediately letting out a shriek, "You were called to a meeting alone earlier!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Inosuke Hashibira lost his composure, feeling that his authority as the boss had been challenged, and that his subordinates had secretly done so many things behind his back.

Inosuke Hashibira wouldn't allow Tanjiro Kamado to have any chance of surpassing him. He pointed his index finger at the boy and said angrily, "Speak now, you forehead-headed Kenpachiro!"

At this moment, having been caught red-handed, Kamado Tanjiro chose to first correct his companion's way of addressing him. He smiled gently at the boar-headed boy: "Inosuke, it's Tanjiro. Say it after me, Kamado-tan-jiro."

Feeling that his subordinate was stalling for time, Hashibira Inosuke immediately launched a "Bunny Charge".

Tanjiro Kamado reached out and held Inosuke Hashibira's head, then began to explain to Zenitsu Gaitsu: "Zenitsu, there's news about the comrade who helped me at the Tokitoya."

"Mr. Sabito told me this not long ago, and I really hope they can come back today."

That's why Tanjiro Kamado walked towards the door so frequently, his obsidian-like eyes sparkling, his face filled with unmistakable longing.

Zenitsu Agatsuma was also happy for him.

"…………"

—This is the origin of the noise that Azhi heard.

However, her hearing wasn't very good, so she didn't know what was being discussed so enthusiastically behind the door, but Giyu Tomioka and Sabito already knew what was going on.

The black-haired swordsman pushed open the door.

Ah Zhi was so blinded by the light that she could barely open her eyes. She blinked, and just as her vision focused, she saw one, two, or three little boys dart out in front of her.

He must be a young boy, right?

First, there was a little boy with a fluffy, golden dandelion-like head, then a wild boar's head... Azhi was stunned for a moment, and she involuntarily grabbed the hem of the person next to her.

Then I saw the familiar Tanjiro Kamado.

Visibly, tears welled up in Tanjiro Kamado's eyes, large drops sliding down his cheeks, his choked voice filled with deep relief.

"Miss Aori, I'm so glad you're alright!"

"Tanjiro."

Aori was also very happy. The sense of unease in her heart was instantly dispelled by the joy of reunion. She could see that Tanjiro had also suffered a lot during this time.

It's embarrassing to think that so many people are worried about her just because of her.

Ah Zhi felt extremely guilty. Although they hadn't known each other for long and had been separated for a few days, these things hadn't made them feel distant.

She stepped forward, wiped away his tears with her fingers, and then stood on tiptoe to pat the top of his head: "I'm sorry to have worried you."

However, in Zenitsu's eyes, all of this was just a beautiful girl in a kimono gently rubbing Tanjiro Kamado's cheek with her fingertips, soothing his emotions.

Zenitsu Gasai cupped his face in his hands and screamed: Aa ...

So, while he and Inosuke were struggling with their missions at Kyogoku-ya and Ogimoto-ya respectively, and while they were getting beaten up by demons, this guy was actually happily doing missions with a girl by his side?!

With a "snap," the string of reason in Zenitsu Gasai's mind snapped, and he broke down.

—Draw your sword, Tanjiro!

Author's note: Kokushibo opened his eyes in the middle of the night: No, are they alright? They've been talking badly about me.
