Ubuyashiki Estate! The Wind Hashira, Water Hashira, Mist Hashira, Sound Hashira and others sat around the bedside. They sat upright, listening to Kagaya Ubuyashiki's teachings and instructions as usual! At the same time, they hoped that this lord they served could get better. "I want to meet Kuzeha-san no matter what..."
For a thousand years, the struggle between humans and demons had never ceased. The King of Demons, Muzan Kibutsuji, sought to overcome the sun, Pursuing true immortality! While the Ubuyashiki family gathered the force of the Demon Slayer Corps, Determined to completely erase the family's shame! However, Muzan Kibutsuji and the Upper Rank demons were far too powerful. Even the Hashira would face death when encountering them. Only the demons' weakness of being unable to appear during daylight allowed the Demon Slayer Corps to continuously preserve their spark of hope through countless crises.
Since a thousand years ago, This battle was supposed to continue for another thousand years... However, Muzan Kibutsuji had provoked someone he shouldn't have! Kuzeha's intervention helped the Ubuyashiki family ancestors fulfill their long-cherished wish, Finally ending the hatred in Kagaya Ubuyashiki's generation!
"I want to personally convey my gratitude—mine, the entire Ubuyashiki clan's, and the whole Demon Slayer Corps'!" Ever since hearing the news of Muzan Kibutsuji's death, Kagaya Ubuyashiki immediately felt refreshed and clear-minded. With Muzan Kibutsuji's death, the thousand-year curse cloud over the Ubuyashiki clan would no longer shroud future generations. He deeply felt that the misfortune that had plagued his family for dozens of generations had been stripped away from him! His hands and feet had strength. Even his heartbeat felt noticeably different from before! Now he could even leave his bed and exercise a little.
However, the healthy flush on his skin would often be replaced by sickly pallor again. Terrifying, twisted blood vessels would crawl back onto his face. Bean-sized beads of sweat would quickly soak his clothes completely!
Kagaya Ubuyashiki smiled bitterly. These two days had been enough to understand his physical condition. Although the curse was gone, The life force consumed by the curse could never be replenished! Perhaps Kagaya Ubuyashiki just needed more time to recover. But most likely, this was just a brief recovery before death!
"Ah..." The Hashira gathered at the scene had originally been quite pleased with the completion of the Demon Slayer Corps' mission. But now they had all sensed something ominous. This was clearly a dying wish!
"Don't be sad, everyone." Kagaya Ubuyashiki had calmly accepted the fate that awaited him. But the Hashira obviously couldn't face this terrible news. Mitsuri Kanroji bit her pink lips lightly and clenched her fists. The young girl had already made up her mind!
"Master, I'll go ask Kuzeha-san for a potion!" That's right! Those potions auctioned by the Yukinoshita Financial Group some time ago could definitely solve the problem! Through the Yuuki Financial Group, they also knew that the master behind the Yukinoshita Financial Group was Kuzeha. However, according to the auction price, one potion cost at least eight billion! This was undoubtedly an astronomical sum for the Demon Slayer Corps!
"We can't just do nothing and watch Master die before our eyes—that's absolutely impossible!" "That's right, as long as we can save Master, the Demon Slayer Corps is willing to pay any price!" "Mitsuri, we'll go together too!"
They might not be able to gather eight billion. But they had another kind of bargaining chip for exchange. That was to serve the Yukinoshita Financial Group! In the Hashira's view, being able to trade themselves for their master's health was undoubtedly a very worthwhile deal!
Kagaya Ubuyashiki immediately tried to stand up to stop them. But his body could barely handle even such simple movements. "Don't be reckless... cough cough!" Fortunately, his body had indeed recovered somewhat during these final moments. He didn't cough up blood as he usually would.
Kagaya Ubuyashiki gradually calmed his emotions, his tone becoming resigned. "It's alright, at least Kiriya and Hinaki can live healthily."
In the orphanage. Kuzeha returned to his room, holding the loli version of Azriel in his arms. The bird-like Azriel reluctantly left Kuzeha's embrace. From her expression, it was clear she was very unwilling to separate! However, as long as Kuzeha didn't speak, she would obediently stand to the side. She absolutely obeyed Kuzeha's commands!
Kuzeha couldn't help but complain internally. Compared to that little brat Yuki Suou, they were complete opposites! Speak of the devil. He didn't know if there was really some mystical telepathic connection between real siblings. It wasn't long before A series of noisy footsteps came from outside the door! Sure enough, it was that clingy little girl, Yuki Suou.
"Big brother!" Bang! The door was thrown open by Yuki Suou with the momentum of catching a cheating cat. Sometimes, Kuzeha suspected she had installed some surveillance equipment in the orphanage.
"Big brother, you really did make a move!" After seeing Azriel, Yuki Suou was shocked and covered her slightly open mouth with her hand. "Finally unable to hide your desires, you've started seducing little lolis?!" Yuki Suou's face puffed up angrily, her eyebrows slightly raised. She wanted to make her expression as the crystal palace's head wife more authoritative, gaining the upper hand in momentum!
