Chapter 242

After the meeting, it was already dawn.

The third brother could not see the light, so he rested by the side of the courtyard. The Nine Pillars could not completely trust him, so they left the strongest rock pillar to guard the lord's courtyard.

I stayed behind alone because I had something to clarify with my lord.

You all know that I am very sleepy and want to sleep - even Nezuko can use sleep to make up for her hunger. I am really hungry and sleepy at the same time. How can I be such a miserable time traveler?

So let's get straight to the point. First of all, I have to find out Miss Tamayo's location as soon as possible. If I were to find her on my own, I don't know how long it would take me.

The lord saw me staying for such a long meeting, so he naturally saw me adding buffs to the third brother.

Every few minutes, I can tell that I can't rest well. It's true that my soul is a blue red spider lily, but my body is not strong. This is something that is deeply rooted in the minds of the lords. If I forcefully modify this character setting, there will be problems.

As I said before, as long as a person believes in something, he will compensate for the slightest bit of the opposite in his heart. Similarly, the fact that I am physically weak has also played the same role in the minds of the Demon Slayer Corps.

So I have stopped trying to change the status quo in this regard, as I am afraid that it will cause my other settings to collapse.

Then again, what would happen if I got caught? Would the world collapse?

I'm not sure, so I'd better not take the risk.

"Mr. Qing, I understand what you mean. It's about Mr. Komaji, right?" The lord understood. He was only accompanied by his wife Tianyin, but I think his state of mind was very different from when I first arrived.

I nodded. "It's not a long-term solution to keep this time limit. I thought before... Kamado-kun's sister is not under the control of the Demon King. Maybe she is special. That girl seems to be special from the very beginning. She has never lived a life as a demon. She is different from Mr. Komaji. But in my memory, there is a lady named Tamayo. She is one of the few people who got rid of Muzan Muzan's control by her own strength."

The lord did not respond directly. After all, he and Miss Tamayo were partners, but he was not qualified to reveal the other party's location.

I understand this and I won't make things difficult for him.

"If my guess is correct, Mr. Umayashiki should have been in contact with her. Please ask her if she is willing to help me. I can use my own abilities in exchange. She must be looking for a way to become a human, and this way must eventually fall on me." I pursed my lips and turned this helping matter into a mutually beneficial cooperative relationship.

Miss Tamayo needs both the demon blood of the Twelve Demon Moons and the blue red spider lily in my current setting. If she can help the third brother, it will be a win-win for her.

I remember that Miss Tamayo waited for Yuanyi to appear, and got rid of his control when Yuanyi beat up the boss, and the third brother became a ghost after that, so in principle, Miss Tamayo should not know the third brother, and her knot in her heart is not with him.

Under the absolute condition that we have a common enemy, Muzan Kibutsuji Muzan, I am sure that Ms. Tamayo will not reject my request.

What's more, I asked my lord to ask for me.

This question was asked by the lord, which itself represents the lord's position, indicating that the lord has recognized the identities of my third brother and me. Miss Tamayo knows the position of the Demon Slayer Corps and the lord, so naturally she will not have any more doubts about me.

My abacus is clacking, and I think it's very nice!

My lord is so smart, how could he not understand what I mean when I say this with my cards almost exposed?

But he didn't point it out, just nodded, which showed his agreement.

I nodded with satisfaction, and before leaving, I did not forget to help my lord check the curse in his body.

It's a little better than before. After the last meeting, Shinobu Kocho learned from others that I can eradicate the curse, and she has already started to help the lord recuperate.

I used some stronger medicines that I had not dared to use before.

The purpose is to allow the lord to endure the process of exorcising the curse as quickly as possible. Because the medicine is relatively strong, the lord's body has improved significantly under the stimulation.

However, this improvement came at a certain price. The lord does not have such a good body nor so much time, so Shinobu Kocho made this decision after careful consideration and discussion with the lord.

I moved my fingers slightly and used my ability to probe into the lord's body. The green light penetrated into the lord's skin. I could clearly feel the dark spots in the lord's body, which seemed to be concentrated in various parts of the body.

I don't know if you have ever played scratch cards. Under the black mud is the original color of the card. This is what I am doing now. The lord's body is the card, the curse is the black layer, and my ability is the card scratching tool.

Of course it was very easy at the beginning, I could scrape it off with any scraper, but as time went on, it became more and more difficult to scrape it off with my slightly thin scraper.

The best way is to not shave randomly from the very beginning, but to shave regularly, from one place to the other.

I first used my power to wrap the lord's more vulnerable dirty objects, so that I would not have time to react if an accident happened.

The curses accumulated in the heart are the most numerous and the most dangerous, so I dare not directly deal with the curses here, but start by cleaning up some scraps.

There is a reason why I use "leftovers" to describe the curse. During the process of exorcising the curse and absorbing it with my abilities, the hunger in my stomach that was pricking me and making me feel very uncomfortable and even a little painful was suddenly like a warm current flowing in, making me feel much more comfortable.

I touched my belly and frowned.

Sure enough... my synchronization rate has been increasing, and I can already feel this vague, intermittent pain.

Leaving the key words is urgent.

And according to my experience, this keyword is most effective when used at the climax of the story!

Therefore, the person who controls my destiny must be the one who will fight with me in the final battle - that is, the one who will fight directly against the scumbag boss and will not die.

Who could it be? Of course, the protagonist is the safest.

"Mr. Qing, are you okay?" Madam Tianyin looked at me and came over to help me.

Indeed, after being moisturized, my stomach suddenly felt as if I had not eaten for days and then ate a lot. I had never experienced any pain in this world before and was caught off guard. I felt so weak that my feet were shaking.

I stood still and shook my head slightly, "Thank you, Mrs. Tianyin, I'm fine." At the same time, I was pulled by the narrowness of the hem, so I quickly added, "Mr. Sanyashiki, may I ask where the box I put under the bed in Butterfly House is..."

"Don't worry, Mr. Qing. Kamado-kun has brought him out for you." The lord responded with his eyes closed. He pointed to the left and said, "It's in the second room on the left of the door. That's the room prepared for Mr. Qing. In view of Mr. Komaji's special situation now, it might be better for him to live with you. If you need him, let Xingming invite him over."

After the curse in his body was further cleared, his eyes not only regained a little bit of light sensitivity, but were almost able to see.

But I have vaguely seen it in various TV dramas and novels, saying that people who have been blind for a long time need to slow down after their eyes recover.

For example, in martial arts scenes, there will be a white band on the eyes, and in modern backgrounds, there will be black sunglasses.

I don't know the current state of my technical ability, but it won't hurt to be cautious. I told the lord to avoid irritating his eyes, to close them and keep them away from light.

The lord is still very obedient.

Speaking of Tanjiro, I just happened to say, "Speaking of Kamado-kun, are they going on a mission for the Demon Slayer Corps?"

Unexpectedly, the lord shook his head, "No, the overall quality of the Demon Slayer Corps that Banane mentioned last time is indeed a problem that needs to be considered. Belief is one aspect, and strength is another. Especially now, if these swordsmen of the Demon Slayer Corps are going to face Muzan Kibutsuji Muzuru and Upper Moon Kizuki, I can't let them die like this."

I understood instantly. Could this happen so quickly?

"Special training." I really put this plot at the forefront.

In this way, we can directly reduce the death rate from the perspective of strength. Of course, the ghosts from all over the world are now mainly searching for my whereabouts, and the number of people injured is obviously less than before.

The Demon Slayer Corps is not legal, and the scumbag boss also needs an illegal Demon Slayer Corps, so he will not drag the affairs of demons into the sunlight of his vision.

Otherwise, he could attract as many Demon Slayer Corps members as he wanted by committing massacres.

His thoughts restricted his actions, which naturally restricted the other ghosts to a certain extent.

I think my previous performance in the Infinite Castle was relatively indifferent. His actions might attract the Demon Slayer Corps, but he probably thought that it would not attract me.

I don't care about other ordinary people. Things like this might stimulate me and make me pay attention to dangerous places and stay away from them. So collecting intelligence and trying my best to find people became the most likely things he would do.

At the same time, it is inevitable that he should increase the frequency of creating ghosts to expand his sphere of influence.

This is a development that cannot be avoided. From a big picture perspective, this is a completely impossible opportunity.

So I am not surprised that special training is being carried out at this time.

The lord nodded. "The meeting just ended. Giyuu and Kyojuro should have started to notify and prepare. The training ground has been planned before. The trainers will of course be mainly the pillars, and trainers of other breathing methods will also participate. I just hope... that they can protect my children as much as possible at the last moment."

The last moment...

I suddenly felt a heavy feeling, but then I thought, isn't I here for everything?

Don't worry, I will try my best.

I have this belief, and it will never change even if I am assimilated!

I have confidence.

After figuring this out, my voice became lighter. "Please tell Kamado-kun on my behalf. I have a letter that I would like you to bring to him. Please ask him to do me a favor."

I had written the letter in advance. Although the best choice is Tanjiro, the natural protagonist, Zenitsu is not suitable because he has a loud voice. Look at my previous safe words. Every time I used them, they were all strong and stimulating. If I gave them to Zenitsu, wouldn't the whole world know about them?

As for Inosuke... maybe he can't read...

However, in order to prevent myself from having the problem of too high synchronization rate at any time, I have of course made preparations in advance. If the situation becomes impossible and I don't have time to find Tanjiro, I will hand it over to someone else, the lord, the eldest brother, or the third brother.

Now that we have the best solution, I believe that the lord will not open my letter privately and will pass it to Tanjiro.

"Of course, my lord, please tell him about my situation. I remember that he wanted to transform his sister from a demon into a human." The lovely Nezuko jumped up to me. After all, I have hugged her before. I have no choice but to answer the questions of the lovely Nezuko. "She is different from Mr. Komaji. If she doesn't have too much demonic energy, my ability may be able to achieve the effect she wants in a short time."

When that scumbag boss messed with me before, he was very vicious.

Why?

Because he has eaten many people, he has a lot of evil energy.

Nezuko is different. If she doesn't eat my flesh and blood, maybe her ability can reach the point of painless transformation?

I'm actually not sure, but even if we take a step back, don't we still have the researcher Ms. Tamayo?

Ms. Tamayo will trust me more if Tanjiro is by her side.

Seeing my lord taking my letter with a smile and making a promise to me, I finally put down the heavy stone in my heart.

The person responsible for informing Tanjiro that the training on their side has started will be Fugui Yuyu. The lord will let Fugui Yuyu personally take the letter and hand it over to Tanjiro.

If he goes with me, I won't have to worry about anything.

What kind of accident could happen to him?

Now we all know each other. Third brother also said that among the sources of information in the waxing moon, except for the first brother, Mo Mo Tou has his own sect, and the fourth is the old man who hangs out with all kinds of people, but he doesn't seem to be very smart, and his intelligence work is always average - yes, this evaluation was made by the third brother. In the eyes of the third brother, he is undoubtedly a weakling, so he doesn't like him from the bottom of his heart.

Of course, the Demon Slayer Corps will not let down their guard. The Upper Five's ability is a bit troublesome, and the intelligence network connected to those pots is very complicated, and no one knows where there is a possibility of leakage.

Finally, there is a pair of siblings from Upper Six. They have lived in the red-light district for many years, and Daki has always been at the pinnacle of beauty, with the title of oiran.

There, she was able to get a lot of unexpected information.

But at the same time, because of this characteristic of Daki, the two Upper Six siblings are also the easiest to locate.

If the Demon Slayer Corps wanted to get rid of Boss Trash's minions first, they would definitely have to start with these two.

All that needs to be said and done has been done.

But the matter of Huiliya and I falling asleep still requires me to think more. What should I come up with to fool him?

I myself haven't figured out what this ability comes from. Is it a variation of Wang Xiyue's ability to read people's minds after coming into contact with them?

Is his inability to sleep related to my inability to sleep?

I can’t figure it out. What on earth did the world consciousness add to me that led to the current situation?

Of course I couldn't say these words directly to the lord, I just said a few words to buy me some time to think about it, and then turned around and left the room. Facing the sun, I felt a burst of warmth on my body, and all the discomfort and coldness seemed to be blown away by the wind.

So comfortable.
