Chapter 120 - Chapter 120 The Courtesan Yoizumi

"Listen up! The first thing you do when you enter those establishments is to gather information about my wives!"

After removing the radioactive red makeup from his face and untying his white hair from its braids, Uzui Tengen could be described as a rare handsome man.

Agatsuma Zenitsu bit his scarf hard. What was going on?!

This eccentric man was actually such a distinguished handsome fellow!

Why? Why? Why?!

Jealousy twisted Zenitsu's face, and combined with that indescribable makeup, it was truly a sight to behold.

Yoizumi-nii's long golden hair had been adjusted to reach his waist. To avoid drawing too much attention, a thin veil scarf covered his face, revealing only his indifferent and beautiful blue eyes, which made him seem even more mysterious.

"Are you all ready? Let's go!" Uzui Tengen pushed aside the curtain, a hint of flirtatiousness added to his unreliable yet handsome face, a faint smile always playing on his lips.

Tanjirou, with his small topknot, looked at Yoizumi-nii, his crimson eyes gleaming with admiration.

Even just seeing Yoizumi-nii like this was stunning!

No, he shouldn't call him Yoizumi-nii now.

He should call him Sister Izumi!

And so, Tanzi, Zenko, Inoko, and Izumi followed behind Uzui Tengen, entering the Red-light district, a place of superficial glamor and hidden dangers.

Tokito House

"Madam, do you think you could take one of them?" Uzui Tengen, relying on his excellent looks, pointed to the few people beside him.

The madam's face flushed, but then she saw the appearances of the three children and looked troubled.

Such appearances...!

The madam excitedly rushed to the silent Yoizumi, who was standing behind the others, covering her mouth as she scrutinized Yoizumi from head to toe, making him feel uncomfortable.

There was no mistake!

This girl absolutely possessed the beauty of an Oiran!

As one of the most representative proprietors of the Red-light district, with her excellent eyesight, just by looking at the sapphire-blue eyes Yoizumi revealed, she was already certain this was a rare beauty!

He was tall, yet his proportions were excellent, his figure slender, his golden hair, as dazzling as fine silk, reached his waist, and his perfectly indifferent eyes were like... like!

A noble Snow Woman!

There were no flaws except for his overly flat chest!

The madam immediately reached out and grabbed Yoizumi's arm, as if afraid he would run away, her voice even stuttering.

"Th-this one! I want this one!"

"H-how much?!"

"Oh~ Madam has good taste~" As expected, Yoizumi was chosen first. Uzui Tengen rubbed his hands with a smile and held up five fingers.

"Since he can't speak, I'll give you a bit of a discount, Madam."

Can't speak?

The madam secretly sighed, thinking it was a pity. Such a graceful woman, if she could speak, her voice surely wouldn't be bad either!

However, just this face alone was worth it!

By then, earning this money back would be a matter of minutes!

"Old man, pay up!" the madam told her husband, intending to pull Yoizumi away, but Uzui Tengen called her back.

Uzui Tengen pushed Tanjirou in front of her, smiling, "This child is called Tanzi, Izumi's younger sister. I'm giving her to you as well, Madam."

Since she was free, the madam gladly accepted.

"Good, thank you, handsome man. Remember to come visit when you have time, I'll give you a discount."

"Absolutely, absolutely!"

After exchanging pleasantries, Uzui Tengen took a bag of money and left with Zenko and Inoko.

On their way, the three encountered an Oiran procession. During this, Inosuke was spotted by the madam of Ogimoto House and bought at a low price. Zenitsu, who was left, was successfully sent into Kyogoku House by Uzui Tengen with kind words and his good looks.

Changing back into his original Demon Slayer Corps uniform, he squatted on the highest point of a roof, overlooking the entire Red-light district. It was bustling with people, a place carrying countless desires.

He narrowed his eyes. So far, he hadn't detected any demon's presence, or perhaps it was a demon skilled at hiding its aura, or maybe...

An Upper Rank!

The wind on the rooftop ruffled Uzui Tengen's white hair as he ran across the roofs. If it really was an Upper Rank...

Suma, Makio, Hinatsuru.

You must survive!

..."Mawwa~"

Inside Tokito House, the madam removed the thin veil, and upon seeing the true face, even she, as a woman, was moved.

What a beautiful person.

Was he not truly a goddess descended from heaven?

"You're Izumi, right?!"

"Do you have any talents?"

Yoizumi shook his head. He couldn't speak now. Uzui Tengen had specifically reminded him when they left Wisteria House.

"You absolutely must not speak. Your voice is too distinctive; anyone would know you're a man."

So, all Yoizumi could do now was nod or shake his head.

"I see. Then I'll arrange someone to teach you."

People were always more lenient with those of outstanding appearance, after all, he was a future cash cow!

She called over a geisha, who first performed a simple shamisen tune.

"You follow along and learn. Then I'll personally teach you the rules."

"Madam, what about me!" Tanzi had been waiting for a long time, eager for instructions, her bright crimson eyes full of desire to work.

"You… first, take off that strange makeup on your face!"

After Tanjirou removed his makeup, the madam was utterly shocked. Such a large scar on his face!

No wonder he wore such makeup. Fortunately, he was a free gift, so the madam thought it over and didn't get angry. This child seemed honest enough to do odd jobs.

Her eyes lingered on Izumi and Tanzi. Were they really biological sisters?

They were like night and day.

"Clang clang~"

Awkward shamisen notes emanated from Yoizumi's hands. His slender fingers mimicked the geisha's movements, pressing down on the strings, while the wooden pick in his other hand strummed across them.

Yoizumi always had astonishing learning abilities in certain areas.

From initial clumsy movements to smoothly replicating the geisha's actions and completely playing the tune, it took him less than 10 minutes.

The madam's eyes widened, and her mouth dropped open in surprise.

This girl… has the potential to be an Oiran!

There was no need to teach him anymore!

Now, he only needed to be taught the rules, and he could immediately become an Oiran!

And he was mute, so there was no need to worry about him offending customers by not speaking!

She had hit the jackpot!
