Chapter 49

[“Are you all listening to me?”

[Muzan Kibutsuji] stood in the conference room, looking at the teachers and student council members one by one, clapping their hands on the tables.

[Kibutsuji Mukuro]——The successor of the Kibutsuji Group and the president of the Kizuki Group.

"Are you willing to be outdone by the people from Demon Slayer Academy next door? We are an aristocratic school! But after that crappy movie came out, people from our school are being bullied every day!"

"Are we short of just a few leaves? Huh?"

[Xie Huamei] complained: "Is this Caiyezi's fault? You're paying attention to the wrong person, Principal Wupo."

[Xie Huamei]——Head of the Beautification Department of the Guiyue Academy Student Union. 】

Rengoku Kyojuro just received a new mission today.

——Infinite Train.

Because more than 40 people were missing on the Infinite Train, and several Demon Slayers who were sent to investigate had all lost contact, the Demon Slayer Corps sent Rengoku Kyojuro, who was a Pillar, to investigate.

Also going with them were Tokito Muichiro and Kanroji Mitsuri.

"If nothing unexpected happens, the Upper Three Akaza will appear. Please pay more attention and be more careful, Mr. Rengoku." Tokito Muichiro said.

[“Principal Mumu!” Douma swayed back and forth, “I strongly suggest that you collect those vegetable leaves so that you can fill your stomach when you have no money to eat!”

[Douma]——A second-year art teacher at Kigetsu Gakuen.

"[Douma]" Muzan Kibutsuji warned, "Your bonus for this month is gone, so you should just go pick up some vegetable leaves at the door yourself."

"Ah... Principal [Wuyu] you can't do this... I'm going to live on the bonus for the next few days--" [Dou Ma] pretended to cry.

You deserve it.

Komaji rolled his eyes and thought to himself.

[Komaji]——A second-year physical education teacher at Kigetsu Academy.

"In short," Muzan Kibutsuji no longer paid attention to Douma. He announced loudly, "Since Demon Slayer Academy has it, our school should have it too! Didn't Uzumaki Otsuki have someone shoot a back-to-school promotional video some time ago? We should shoot one too!"

[Douma]: "Principal [Wuyu], I still have to remind you that school has already started~"

Muzan Kibutsuji pretended not to hear anything. His eyes scanned Masugugi [1], Hanten Shio [2], Douma, Xiehua and the siblings... and finally stopped at Komaji.

[Komaji]: ???

[Komaji] suddenly broke out in a cold sweat. 】

It was a cloudy day today, and it got dark especially early on Flower Street. The street lights were turned on early, but the streets were deserted, with few people around.

Today is also the day when the Demon Slayer Corps decided to kill Upper Six.

——Let’s use the Zanzamo of the Upper Six to verify whether the screen is correct and whether the Demon Slayer Corps will ever see the true dawn!

"Are you ready, Butterfly?" Fuzugawa Miyabi was hiding outside of Kyogoku-ya. He only glanced at the screen and then focused his attention on the inside of Kyogoku-ya again. Inside, Tomioka Giyuu was preparing to lure the Upper Six over. "After all, he is the Upper Six. His poison should not be underestimated."

"Ah, of course it's no problem." Shinobu Kocho frowned, "Are you worried about me, Mr. Busui? Don't worry, after all, I'm the only one in the Demon Slayer Corps who uses drugs--"

"Insect pillar."

[In the end, this difficult task was handed over to Komaji.]

Unlike the old and broken camera that [Uzui Tengen] found after searching through boxes and cabinets at Demon Slayer Academy, [Kimuji Muzan] waved his hand and directly got [Komaji] a complete set of the Deluxe Edition Camera Gift Package. Looking at the camera equipment in the car that was taller than himself, [Komaji] had a headache - this... even if he could pick it up, he wouldn't know how to use it.

"It looks like Mr. Komaji is in big trouble?"

A voice that deserved a beating was heard, and Komaji looked up, and saw Douma, who was ranked No. 1 in the school in the internal rankings of the teachers for being known for asking for a beating.

"You should be in class, right? What are you doing here?" Komaji rolled his eyes. As Douma's frequent target, he naturally didn't have a good face for him.

“I’m so sad! Mr. Komaji actually killed me!” Douma covered his chest with his hands, looking like he was about to pass out from sadness. “I’m so sorry that I came all the way to help Mr. Komaji. Sob.”

"Come and help me?" Komaji didn't believe a word Douma said - once upon a time, when he first entered the kindergarten, he was still a "naive" person who knew nothing, but he was fooled by the other party and almost lost his underwear [3].

"It's true, how can you not believe it, Mr. Komaji? Anyway, you don't know what to do now, so there's no harm in listening to what I have to say, right?"

"Although I want to say that you did a good job...but what did you do to make her so angry?" Looking at the Dakimide who had split the prostitute Taro across from him and had a grim face, Fuzugawa Miyabi cut off a ribbon and asked.

"Ah... I don't know why she was angry." Tomioka Giyu was confused, "She said she was ugly and weak, and asked me not to talk to her. I don't have words to say to a ghost."

Fushigawa Miyabi: "...As expected of you, Tomiokawa."

The time goes back to half an hour ago. Tomioka Giyu was delaying Daki in Kyogakushiya, and Fuzukawa Miyabi and Kocho Shinobu were helping them out at the door. Uzui Tengen's three wives asked people to evacuate immediately, and Uzui Tengen went to the basement to rescue Daki who was storing food in the granary.

Tomioka Giyu had changed back into his original clothes. He took off the Nichirin sword and slashed at Daki's neck.

Dakimiya barely dodged it, looked at the four characters "Evil Demon Slayer" on the blue Sun Blade, and raised her eyebrows: "Are you a Pillar?"

"Who would have thought that the person carefully nurtured by that old woman would actually be a pillar of the Demon Slayer Corps? And he actually looks like a man. But he looks good." Daki licked her lips, "He's just right as my food."

The ribbon beside him attacked Tomioka Giyuu, but he cut it off with his Nichirin Sword. In a flash, Tomioka Giyuu cut off Daki's head.

"You are weak and ugly. Don't talk to me. I have no words to say to ghosts."

(Friendly translation by Santo who is still in Samagiri Mountain: "Although you are an upper sixth, you are very weak. Although your face is indeed very beautiful, your heart is really too ugly. You are a ghost, don't talk to me. I don't want to talk to ghosts. There is nothing I can say to ghosts.")

【“Mr. Komaji, Mr. Douma.” Rui, who was holding a book, looked at Douma and Komaji who were holding a camera, and said, “Are you going to…”

"Interview." Komaji said, "Douma told me to do an interview like Demon Slayer Gakuen."

[Tired] His thoughts began to wander, and he thought of the messy interview filmed by Demon Slayer Gakuen. After hesitating for a moment, he finally spoke: "... [Komaji] Teacher... why don't you watch the interview of Demon Slayer Gakuen first before speaking?"

Douma took a step back. Komaji thought something was wrong and immediately opened a short video app to search for Demon Slayer Gakuen’s interview this year.

Watching the video that was so badly shot that contemporary netizens jokingly said that "the photographer's hands looked like they had Parkinson's disease," Komaji's hands trembled slightly, and then he punched Douma on the head.

Douma stiffened his neck and said, "Teacher Komaji, I am just trying to help you out of kindness! Principal Mukuro was just imitating the Demon Slayer Academy promotional video. Look, isn't this better than their interview?"

Komaji grabbed the camera and looked at the video. His face became darker and darker. "Yes, if such a video is sent to Principal Muru, he will definitely ask what happened. When he asks you what happened, you can immediately answer that I agreed to make a 'Demon Slayer-style video', and then my bonus will definitely be deducted."

"Oh my god, Mr. Komaji, how could you think of me like this..."

[Rui] watched [Komaji] take out a rope from somewhere and skillfully tied [Douma] to the tree, closed his eyes and shook his head - alas, he was just a child, how could he know what happened between teachers. But in the end he still suggested: "Teacher [Komaji], maybe you can ask [Komei] sister, she has good aesthetics, not to mention that she had an argument with [Uzui Tengen], the interview director of Demon Slayer Academy, a few days ago. If you ask her for help, she should agree."】

The people who were fighting fiercely on the street had no time to watch the conflict on the screen. "It's done." Uzui Tengen jumped over from the roof, "Everyone in the granary has been rescued."

"...Four pillars." Jifutaro's eyes rolled around. He suddenly grinned: "I didn't expect so many pillars to come this time."

"What's the big deal!" said Daki, "I ate seven pillars, and my brother ate fifteen."

They knew this a long time ago.

"Hey, ghost girl!" Fuzugawa Shima skillfully drew a bloody mark on his body, and the bright red blood slowly flowed out. He laughed, "We are not the pillars that you said you would eat!"

"Ready." Uzui Tengen said in a low voice from behind, "Ready to open the red sword. Fuzugawa, Tomioka, and Butterfly."

【[Xie Huamei] sat on a chair, crossed her legs, and casually ruffled her hair: "But [Komaji] teacher, this should be what Principal [Wuwu] asked you to do at the beginning of the meeting, right?"

Komaji thought of the reminder from Rui at the beginning. He thought for a moment and said, "The person in charge of interviews at Demon Slayer Academy is Tengen Uzui, so I want to ask you for help..."

"What?" He was interrupted by [Xie Huamei] before he could finish his words, "The person responsible for that ugly interview video over there is Uzui Tengen?"

[Komaji] suddenly seemed to understand something: "To be precise, the filming and editing of the interview video...all were handled by Tengen Uzui."

"This is so funny!" [Xie Huamei] slapped the table, laughing so hard that she couldn't straighten her back. "The interview video he was in charge of was so bad... ok, teacher [Komaji], just leave the interview video for our school to me!"】
