Because Chinatsu nearly emptied the Demon Slayer Corps headquarters the day before, they needed to buy ingredients on short notice if they wanted to hold a party the next day. Tanjiro and Kanao were the team that went to buy the ingredients.
Watching Tanjiro and Kanao gradually disappear from her sight from inside the house, she stretched her limbs heavily, then transformed into a thief, trying to eliminate her presence as much as possible while tiptoeing carefully to Nezuko's room.
At this moment, Nezuko is lying on the bed, sleeping with a large pillow in her arms, and beads of drool are still hanging on her slightly open mouth.
Nezuko is now... a human.
After all, Tamayo and Shinobu Kocho joined forces to create the ultimate poison, and the outermost layer of the ultimate poison is the "human-transforming medicine".
This medicine can turn demons back into humans. Although Nezuko is a demon who is not afraid of sunlight, she still belongs to the realm of "demons".
During the year that Chinatsu was in a coma, Nezuko took the medicine to become human again, but Chinatsu remained in her original state.
Because Chinatsu and Nezuko's situations are different, the power between the [demon] and [human] within Chinatsu is perfectly balanced, making her the perfect being that Muzan described as surpassing the demons.
In this situation, even if Chika deliberately drinks the rarest of the rarest blood from Shinazugawa Sanemi to make her go berserk, the medicine that transforms her into a human might not necessarily have any effect on her.
Chika stared at Nezuko's face, who was fast asleep and completely unaware that she was getting close. Although she thought that disturbing someone's sleep was a terrible thing, she couldn't help but reach out a finger and gently poke Nezuko's cheek.
The reason is simple: Nezuko is just too cute!
Chika quietly poked Nezuko's soft, tender cheeks, feeling an overwhelming sense of happiness.
However, in the end, Chika managed to control her desires. She could stop poking Nezuko after a couple of pokes; she didn't want to actually wake Nezuko up.
Disturbing someone's sleep... is a heinous crime!
"Go back to sleep. There's nothing to worry about now," Chika said softly to Nezuko, crouching down slightly.
Nezuko pursed her lips in her sleep, the corners of her mouth curving slightly upwards, indicating that she was having a sweet dream.
Chinatsu smiled, turned and left Nezuko's room, gently closing the door before exiting her residence.
Now that the Demon Slayer Corps has disbanded, only the nine Hashira remain at the Demon Slayer Corps headquarters. They are staying here because they want to wait for Chinatsu to wake up. After the party tonight, they will probably leave the headquarters and go back to their own lives.
Chika bent her arms and hugged the back of her head, gazing at the snow-white and azure sky.
Suddenly, Chika paused, startled, and stopped in her tracks.
"Speaking of which, my lord hasn't given me my bonus yet. This is the seed money for my world travel plan!!!"
Money is not a necessity, but you can't do without it.
Upon thinking of this, Chika rushed towards her lord's residence. At that moment, her lord, who was diligently writing "Demon Slayer: Chapter Two" inside the residence, couldn't help but tremble.
Tianyin, who was pouring him tea, saw this and asked in confusion, "What's wrong? Are you having a fit?"
Crazy...crazy?
The lord awkwardly picked up a tissue from the side and wiped the sweat from his face, replying with a smile, "It's nothing, just a simple shiver."
After finishing speaking, the lord picked up the tea that Tianyin handed him, took a sip, and then continued writing.
On her way to the lord's residence, Chinatsu encountered a group of two, Tanjiro and Kanao, who were also preparing to go out shopping.
Obanai Iguro and Mitsuri Kanroji.
When Mitsuri saw Chinatsu suddenly appear, she excitedly rushed to greet her. In a corner that Mitsuri couldn't see, Obanai Iguro, who was originally next to her, unconsciously pursed her lips.
"Chika! You're up so early? You only woke up yesterday, you should rest more." Miri held Chika's arms with both hands and asked her with a serious tone.
"It's alright, it's alright. I almost emptied the entire headquarters' food depot yesterday! All that food turned into my power, and now I'm fully recovered!"
As she spoke, Chika stretched out her arm and bent it, showing off her biceps to Mitsu.
Miki was amused by Chika's actions, and she happily imitated Chika's movements, showing off her muscles.
A perfect creature, with eight times the muscle.
The two women were showing off their muscles in front of Obanai Iguro, who stood there blankly, not knowing how to interject, and lost her voice.
"Hehe, Chinatsu, you're just in time! Although Mr. Iguro and I went out to buy food, the party is in the evening, so we were originally planning to go to that restaurant where you can eat your fill if you pay. Chinatsu, why don't you come along too?"
Mitsuri said with a grin, and as soon as she said this, Obanai Iguro behind her changed her expression and clearly looked disappointed in Chika's eyes.
However, since all of this has been seen by Chinatsu, how could she possibly ruin Obanai's important plans? She didn't want to be a third wheel.
"I'm sorry, I'm going to see the lord, so I can't come along..."
Chinatsu was halfway through her sentence to Mitsuri when she turned her gaze to Obanai Iguro behind her.
"I hope you and Mitsuri enjoy your meal!"
Upon hearing this, Obanai Iguro's disappointment vanished, and his expression at that moment was one of frantically throwing "friend zone" cards at Chinatsu.
Mitsuri: That's such a shame~
Obanai: Yeah, that's such a shame.
"Ganlu Temple, we should go now. The buffet restaurant will be opening soon, and we might have to wait in line if we arrive late."
"Ugh, queuing? I hate queuing."
With a blessing from Chinatsu, she smiled and watched Mitsuri and Obanai Iguro leave. Chinatsu would never be a third wheel, but to be honest, she was quite interested in that buffet restaurant.
Unlike in modern times, buffet restaurants are still quite rare in this era. It can be said that they are still in the "paving the way" stage. Many restaurants try the buffet route under the guise of promotions. However, the restaurant that Miri mentioned is a completely and thoroughly buffet restaurant.
The boss seems to be both wealthy and charismatic!
As Chika thought this, she stretched out a finger and touched her stomach.
"Ahem, I'm not going to be a third wheel, I'm just going to have breakfast...yes, breakfast." Qianxia cleared her throat lightly and sneaked towards the buffet restaurant.
