Chapter 37 Chapter 37 The Little Ancestor and the Naughty Kids
The head of the Muzan family has been in a good mood in recent days, and almost everyone who sees him can come to this conclusion.
In Heian-kyo, other families spread the news privately and quickly - the heir of the Muzan family, who was originally weak and sickly and on the verge of dying young, is now miraculously recovering.
It seemed that in order to bring his heir to the forefront and pave the way for Muzan Kibutsuji in front of the patriarchs and future rulers of various families; and as if to prove to the entire aristocracy that his heir had really recovered, the head of the Kibutsuji family held an unprecedented grand dinner.
Dressed in elaborate and gorgeous attire, Muzan Kibutsuji sat quietly in his seat.
When he noticed the inquiring gazes from others, Muzan Kibutsuji simply turned his head slightly and gave them a very small smile, but his face remained calm.
Seeing that the heir of the Muzan family had more color on his formerly pale face and his demeanor was noble and gentle, the people from other families exchanged glances in private - the turmoil that they had imagined would occur during the future transfer of power in the Muzan family, now seemed unlikely to happen again.
In the past, the heir of the Muzan Kibutsuji family was weak and sickly, and was likely to die early. This led to many powerful families not really considering Muzan Kibutsuji as the future head of the Muzan Kibutsuji family.
No matter how outstanding Muzan Kibutsuji is, who would really push a person who is destined to die young to the position of head of the family?
In this case, the Muzan Muzan family would inevitably consider adopting an heir from a side branch. But would Muzan Muzan Muzan watch helplessly as his possessions were taken away? Would his mother, the matriarch of the Muzan family, willingly watch her son being trampled underfoot?
A variety of reasons are intertwined, which has led to the subtle attitude of the powerful people in Heian-kyo towards the Muzan family in recent years.
Many people are eager to take advantage of the turmoil in the Muzan family to gain some benefits.
The head of the Muzan family naturally understood this, which was why he hadn't felt at ease in recent years. Until now, seeing his heir standing before him, holding the divine sword, announcing his recovery.
The huge rock that had been weighing on his heart was removed, and the head of the Muzan family even lost his composure and laughed out loud while hugging Muzan Muzan - look, God is finally blessing their Muzan family.
The powerful and influential people had been plotting for years about how to divide up the family property in the future. The moment he learned that his heir's health had improved, the head of the Muzan family could not help but announce the news to the entire Heian-kyo, and at the same time intimidate those guys.
The head of the Muzan Kibutsuji family, sitting in the main seat, was chatting with others while paying attention to the movements of Muzan Kibutsuji.
Because Muzan Kibutsuji's health was too poor before, he had the title of heir but not the actual heir. Strictly speaking, this was Muzan Kibutsuji's first time to attend a banquet of this level.
What satisfied him was that Muzan Kibutsuji's performance was perfect - facing those overt or covert scrutiny and probing gazes, he not only did not reveal any anxiety or displeasure, but instead responded with a calm and peaceful attitude from beginning to end.
He does not show his emotions on his face, maintains a stable state of mind, and is neither arrogant nor impatient.
Simply...perfect.
With a blazing fire in his eyes, the head of the Muzan Kibutsuji family is now extremely satisfied with Muzan Kibutsuji.
Muzan Kibutsuji, who noticed his father's gaze, turned his head and looked at his father with eyes full of admiration.
This naturally made the head of the Muzan family feel better.
Looking at his father's expression, Muzan Kibutsuji withdrew his gaze and lowered his eyes slightly, using this action to hide the sarcasm in his eyes.
Although he really didn't like being dominated by others, he was too weak right now. If temporary submission could buy him power in the future, he wouldn't mind pretending.
"convergence."
Unseen by others, the red-robed Tsukumogami with black hair like crow feathers sat beside Muzan Kibutsuji, glancing sideways at the person beside him and warning, "Your emotions are too obvious."
The head of the Muzan family was simply too excited to notice his current emotional fluctuations. However, the others nearby were not overwhelmed by joy.
Because of this, Karasuma was born to remind Muzan Kibutsuji.
In fact, ever since he appeared, Xiao Wuhuan knew at first sight that the child in front of him was probably not a good person.
Although he was weak, he managed to hold on until now when everyone thought he would not survive. The desire for life in his eyes was so strong and intense that even she was a little surprised.
When he discovered that his spiritual power could temporarily free the other party from his sick state, the deep cruelty and madness revealed by Muzan Kibutsuji under the suppressed desire made Kogumaru look sideways.
A child like this was probably on the verge of going insane. However, even on the verge of madness, she still managed to maintain a clear mind, trying to use her pitiful attitude to make her reluctant to agree to his request, and then using her identity as "specially asked to eliminate his illness" to increase her bargaining power.
Although he was too young to hide his true emotions, his scheming was enough to scare most people.
But, so what?
In Heian-kyō, being part of a family like this, it was basically impossible to survive without a little scheming. Moreover, she had arrived at a relatively early stage, as the child's character had not yet been fully formed.
I think with her guidance, the child will not go astray.
Muzan Kibutsuji, on the other hand, did not have any complaints or dissatisfaction with being reprimanded after hearing what Karasuma said. Instead, he was unusually well-behaved and docile, and he even secretly cast a look at Karasuma after disguising himself, saying "Look at what I'm doing."
Although this guy was full of bad intentions and his real purpose was just to hold him back and prevent him from leaving, Xiao Wuwan had to admit that when the other party made such a pitiful and adoring expression, the lethality was quite small.
The slightly curly black hair fell on the side of her face, and her fair, chubby face was full of cautious temptation and fear of being rejected.
Xiao Karasuma looked at him, then smiled and held out his hand.
Looking at the fingertips that were gradually approaching, Muzan Kibutsuji closed his eyes, his face full of obedience, but the pride in his heart could not be suppressed - as expected, as long as he used a little trick, even the Tsukumogami would have to admit defeat.
Just as Muzan Kibutsuji was thinking about continuing to ask for spiritual power later, he felt a sudden pain in his forehead.
Ghost Dance Tsuji Muzan:? ? ?
Wait, what's going on?
As if he couldn't believe that he was hit on the forehead, Muzan Kibutsuji sat in his seat with a confused look on his face. But now he showed the real soft and cute look that a child should have.
Calmly withdrawing his hand, Xiao Wuwan slowly picked up the wine cup and took a sip without haste. Then he said lightly: "Your cultivation is still shallow, but it is more than enough to please me."
After coming to his senses, Muzan Kibutsuji, who translated "The monkey show is good, continue next time", almost exploded on the spot - Damn you!
This heartless Tsukumogami actually just watched him act out what he thought was a clever act, and then put on all sorts of embarrassing performances?!
The corners of his eyes twitched slightly. If it weren't for his remaining sanity, yelling in his ear at the top of his lungs "Don't be stupid", Muzan Kibutsuji would have almost lost the smile on his face and would have wanted to overturn the table.
However, even so, Muzan Kibutsuji still attracted other people's attention.
"Hmm? Muzan, why do you look so grim?"
As soon as these words rang out, Muzan Kibutsuji noticed that the eyes of most people present were on him. Some were inquiring, some were suspicious, some were malicious, some were worried...
His eye sockets shrank slightly, and Muzan Kibutsuji mistakenly thought that he had returned to the past, back to the time when he was weak and lying in the room, tortured by illness.
That was the deepest nightmare. Just being slightly stuck in the past, Muzan Kibutsuji could not help but become furious. He subconsciously wanted to throw whatever he had at hand at the face of the person who had spoken - Get out! I'm healthy now!
"calm."
A cold voice sounded in his ears, and the black-haired and red-clothed Tsukumogami reached out his hand and lightly grasped Muzan Kibutsuji's wrist, instantly waking him up.
"Then I said, 'No problem, I'm just a little sad.'"
Almost subconsciously obeying the other party's words, Muzan Kibutsuji lowered his head slightly as Karasuma lowered his head, then said in a low voice: "It's okay, I'm just a little sad."
"Before this, I never knew that my father had to deal with so many things, and I never knew that my father could be so tired."
"Before this, I never knew Father had to deal with so many things, and I never knew Father could be so tired."
"I just...feel sorry for my parents, for having worked so hard for me for so long."
"I just... feel sorry for my parents. They have worked so hard for me for so long."
Stumbling over Karasuma's words, Muzan Kibutsuji gradually regained his composure. He then raised his head and smiled a guilty smile, "From now on, I must work even harder to repay my father."
There was silence at the scene.
After a long while, the head of the Kibutsuji family, who was sitting in the main seat, walked down with a face full of emotion. He stretched out his hands to embrace Kibutsuji Muzan, and his voice revealed suppressed excitement: "Okay, okay!"
On the other hand, after seeing Kibutsuji Muzan resolve the emergency, Xiao Karasuma withdrew his hand and sat aside, leisurely observing the expressions of others.
Although she really likes the leisurely life of retirement, if these people insist on coming and messing with the kids she is responsible for, she doesn't mind doing something about it.
After all, she has a karmic relationship with Muzan Kibutsuji, and she is now the sword by Muzan Kibutsuji's side.
As a sword, one must always remember one's identity. No matter how much one teased the other party before, one cannot tolerate provocation from others.
...Oh, of course, the exception is privately teaching your kid a lesson to prevent him from growing up in a wrong way.
This was what Karasuma was thinking after the dinner, when she was in Muzan Kibutsuji's house and was accused by Muzan Kibutsuji of flicking his forehead and almost making him lose his composure. She calmly reached out her hand, grabbed his ear and rubbed his face hard.
"Ugh! Y-let me go!"
Struggling to break free, Muzan Muzan exploded in anger, his voice rising several pitches: "How dare you do this to me! ! ! Even my dad never did this to me! ! ! "
His mother never treated him like this!!
"oh?"
Xiao Wuhuan sneered, then looked at the ungrateful kid in front of him, hugged him and slapped him on the butt a few times.
"Don't worry, I'll let you experience for yourself what 'Mother's love is like the (Dead) Sea'!"
The stunned Muzan Kibutsuji: ...? !
I am so fucking!!!
-----------------------
Author's words: Muzan Kibutsuji: Go away! My parents never hit me like this!
Little Ancestor: Don’t worry, you can call me Ancestor:)
Muzan Kibutsuji: ...Wow! Uuuuu! You heartless Tsukumogami!
Little Ancestor (drinking tea): I feel relaxed physically and mentally.
