"Just a little bit... oh no, just a little bit more!"
Chika held up two fingers; originally, she really only wanted the amount between those two fingers.
But when she thought of the sweet smell of blood that Sanemi smelled when he cut his own arm and bled while dealing with Nezuko's trust issue, Chinatsu couldn't help but swallow hard.
The rarest of rare bloods is truly potent. Even an exception like Chinatsu was interested in Sanemi's blood. Fortunately, Chinatsu managed to suppress the drool that was about to spill from her mouth.
However, Chika didn't have any test tubes or anything to store blood, and the training ground was far from her residence.
Chika turned her head and scanned her surroundings. She discovered that the closest place to the training ground was actually the lord's mansion. And the instant she saw the lord's mansion, for some reason, a large basin suddenly appeared in Chika's mind...
"Ahem, Shinobu's residence doesn't seem to be too far away. Let's go there."
"good."
Sanemi nodded and sheathed his Nichirin Blade. Before heading to Shinobu's residence with Sanemi, Chinatsu turned to Kyojuro and gave him a look that said, "Good luck."
With a look that said, "Leave it to me!", Kyojuro walked towards the Stone Pillar, Gyomei Himejima.
Chika can rest assured when Kyojuro does things right.
Afterwards, Chinatsu and Sanemi went to Shinobu's residence, where Shinobu was engrossed in conducting poison research with Tamayo.
The two exchanged their research findings through letters and rarely met in person.
While Shinobu Kocho's aversion to demons was a factor, another reason was the extremely poor relationship between her and Yushiro; they almost always argued whenever they met.
Yushiro was dissatisfied with Shinobu Kocho's frequent expressions of aversion towards demons and Tamayo.
Shinobu Kocho felt unhappy because she sensed Yushiro's hostility and anger towards her.
Imagine the scene: Shinobu Kocho and Yushiro staring at each other, their eyes flashing with crackling lightning.
Shinobu Kocho's veins bulged, and Yushiro's head was flashing wildly with "Anger +1, Anger +1, Anger +1...", while Tamayo, sandwiched between the two, awkwardly shed beads of cold sweat.
When Chinatsu and Sanemi arrived at Shinobu's residence, Shinobu was still focused on conducting a potion experiment. Nezuko, who had been observing curiously beside her, suddenly froze.
"What's wrong?"
Shinobu turned her head curiously to look at Nezuko, but Nezuko was even faster than she could turn her head, disappearing from her side in a flash.
The surprise in Shinobu's eyes subsided like the receding tide, because she knew that there was only one person in the world who could enable the Kamado siblings to use the "teleportation" skill.
Nezuko rushed out of the house and plopped into Chinatsu's arms. Chinatsu gently stroked Nezuko's head, and Nezuko thoroughly enjoyed the pat.
The mansion of Shinobu Kocho was filled with a warm and harmonious atmosphere. Sanemi, who was standing to the side, was almost swallowed up by this atmosphere and his mind went blank.
"Chika and... Shinazugawa, what brings you two here?" Shinobu Kocho came out of the house and asked with a smile, looking at Chika and Sanemi, who were both rare guests.
Before Chika could speak, Sanemi, who was standing next to her, took a step forward and lifted up his scarred arm.
“Chika wants some of my rare blood, but I don’t have the means to store it,” Sanemi said bluntly.
Upon hearing Sanemi's words, Shinobu's expression became somewhat subtle, and she unconsciously glanced at Chinatsu beside Sanemi.
After a noticeable internal struggle, Shinobu sighed and gave up on thinking. She shrugged and asked, "Blood storage equipment? Test tubes? How big do you need?"
Give me the biggest one!
"………………"
A moment later, Shinobu Kocho took out a test tube as thick as Sanemi's arm, and Sanemi's face froze the instant it was taken out.
"How...how can it be so big?"
"Oh dear~ Didn't you say you wanted the largest size? This is a specially customized test tube, only available from me~" Shinobu Kocho said with narrowed eyes.
Sanemi's gaze darted back and forth between the test tube, which was as thick as his arm, and his own arm. Chinatsu and Shinobu Kocho both thought he would back down, but to their surprise, he gritted his teeth and gave a "Come on! Who's afraid of who!" look.
Chinatsu quickly stopped Sanemi's stubborn behavior. Although she really wanted Sanemi's blood, and even wanted a little more, she decided against the arm-thick test tube...
In the end, Chinatsu obtained two blood samples that were a size larger than usual. During the blood draw, Shinobu Kocho did not notice that Chinatsu next to her was trying very hard to control the saliva in her mouth.
"Is this really enough?" Sanemi said, waving his arm, which had just had blood drawn, as if to say, "I'm pretty good at this."
"That's enough, really enough. Thank you so much this time. But let me make it clear beforehand that this doesn't count as repaying a favor, because you don't owe me anything. Now it's me who owes you a favor. But don't worry, I will repay it."
After replying with a smile, Qianxia lowered her head and stared at the two samples of rare blood in her hand. After some contemplation, she decided to take her leave immediately and return to her residence.
In the battle at the Infinity Castle in the original work, Sanemi Shinazugawa, the Wind Pillar, was one of only two Pillars to survive. However, he not only awakened his Demon Slayer Mark and had little life left, but he also witnessed the death of his younger brother.
Since I owe you a favor, I will definitely guarantee your future. Just wait until the Endless City ends and then you can enjoy life with your little brother!
Of course, even if she doesn't owe anyone a favor, Chinatsu will still ensure Sanemi's future, because Chinatsu is pursuing a perfect ending.
Just like the God of War who takes down a Minotaur with a single strike, Chika transforms into the perfect God of War, fighting for all that is good in the world, wishing that this goodness will last forever.
Back in her residence, Chika kept one of the two portions of rare blood, while holding the other in her palm.
Chika... wants to drink this rare blood!
This wasn't because Chika couldn't resist her cravings, but because she wanted to see if she could use the rarest of rare blood to make the demonic part of her body more active.
Her actions had only one purpose: to awaken... "Blood Demon Art"!
This is an extremely risky act. Perhaps because of this one drink, the perfect human-demon order within her body will be disrupted. However, if she can awaken the "Blood Demon Art," Chika's strength will be greatly enhanced once again.
Chika's gaze was fixed on the rare blood in her hand. A moment of hesitation flashed through her mind, but it vanished instantly.
"Let's give it our all!"
Chitsu, drink it all in one gulp!
