Chapter Ten: Tamayo's Conversation… The Egyptians' Plan to Evolve
"Chapter Ten begins with the seven gathered in the same room. Moaz is sitting on his bed, receiving treatment, surrounded by his companions. Tamayo, wearing her famous purple kimono adorned with floral patterns, sits on a wooden chair, with Yushiro—her cautious assistant—standing beside her."
[Moaz sits with a plate in front of him containing salmon and okayu.]
Tamayo (in a soft, gentle voice with a warm smile):
Please, Moaz-kun. You need nourishment.
Moaz (smiling, scratching the back of his neck):
Thank you, Tamayo-san, but… I'm not hungry.
Tamayo (sighs softly, her hands resting on her lap, her violet eyes fixed on Moaz's face):
Your face is pale from lack of food. Come on.
[Moaz feels a motherly tone in Tamayo's
voice and mutters to himself]:
At this rate, Tamayo-san will treat me like her son… so does that make Yushiro my dad?
Suddenly, Moamen speaks with a hungry
voice:
No problem, Moaz is full—give me the fish!
[He pounces on the salmon plate like a starving hawk.]
Bon appétit… for me ♡
Yushiro (irritated, snapping at Moamen):
You bastard! I told you a hundred times—don't steal the patients' food!
Moamen (mouth full as usual, eyes shining with arrogance, a mocking grin):
Try me, you arugula demon.
[Yushiro's eyes turn white as he clenches his fist.]
You insolent child, now I will—
Moaz (smiling nervously toward Yushiro):
Sorry, Yushiro-san… I mean, I gave him my food. I'm not hungry.
[Moamen's eyes sparkle as he hugs Moaz.]
My brother!
Yushiro (sighs, crossing his arms, clearly annoyed):
Fine. But don't forget, idiot—you need proper nutrition.
Tamayo (calm and gentle, yet carrying motherly firmness):
Enough, children.
[On the other side of the room, Mohannad looks around, while Hudhayfa watches him curiously.]
Hudhayfa:
What are you doing, Mr. Crab?
Mohannad (rubbing his chin, staring at the wall):
Hmm… how much is the Egyptian pound worth compared to the yen in 1915?
Hudhayfa (hearing him, staring):
Am I standing next to the World Bank or what?
Mohannad (boastfully, with a cheerful tone):
I need to calculate—I've got projects.
Hudhayfa (narrowing his eyes suspiciously):
Projects? Like that Beyblade thing that scammed us?
Mohannad (shrugs coldly):
You're the idiots, bro.
Hudhayfa (sighs, muttering):
Truly insane.
Ali (sitting with a constant scowl, rubbing his hair irritably):
When are we going home? I want the internet, electricity, and not this Stone Age crap.
Mazen (beside him, puffing out his chest with a grin):
This is just the beginning, Ali. Imagine changing Rengoku-san's fate and training.
[Mazen imagines himself holding a shotgun and mutters seriously]:
Hold still, Kokushibo—you're facing Mazen-sama—ouch!
[Suddenly, Mazen turns around and sees Eyad hitting his head with a cup.]
Eyad (mockingly):
Sorry, your head's just too big.
[Mazen's face turns red as he clenches his teeth and fists.]
Fine… I'll show you, you terrifying-ass bastard.
[Back at Moaz's bed, Tamayo looks around the room calmly with a faint smile.]
Tamayo:
Your friends seem happy.
Moaz (smiling softly):
Honestly, they're not just friends… they're family.
Tamayo (laughs lightly, shaking her head):
Do you consider them friends?
Moaz (smiling as he explains):
They really are my family, I mean—
Moamen (interrupting with a grin):
I'm his cousin, and he's my cousin.
Moaz (sighs, continuing):
Yes… and honestly, I'm their cousin too. Eyad is my little brother, Hudhayfa and Ali are my brothers, and—
Ali (angrily toward Moaz):
Idiot! That's not my brother—that's a monkey!
Hudhayfa (closing his Japanese medical book, glaring at Ali):
I'm a monkey? You look like a gorilla, but your brain's in your ass.
Yushiro (whispering to Tamayo):
Tamayo-san… they're truly idiots.
Mohannad (suddenly barging in, smiling):
Let's make a comedy series called The Tamayo and Yushiro Family.
[He raises a paper and continues:]
The mom is Tamayo, the dad is Yushiro—who hates his kids, wants to kill them, and is stingy.
Yushiro (exploding in anger):
I'm stingy?! You ate the patients' food!
Mohannad (raising his index finger):
Moaz is the polite kid, Hudhayfa is half-polite, and Ali needs factory resetting.
Ali (frowning at Mohannad):
I'll reset your brain first, you money dog. What about you?
Mohannad (hand on his chest proudly):
I'm the family expert—the handsome, confident one—
Moamen (mocking laugh):
The family thief.
[Mohannad falls silent, then smiles sarcastically.]
Whatever. Moamen is the family cow—eats but produces nothing, not even a hair. And Eyad… a pervert.
Moamen (shouting angrily):
Shut up before I break you!
Mohannad (standing in front of him, smiling):
Really?
[Moamen freezes—Mohannad is 187 cm tall, while Moamen is 149 cm and still a kid.]
Moamen (nervous smile):
I was joking.
[Suddenly, Tamayo's smile fades as curiosity appears in her eyes.]
Tamayo:
Now… may I know who you are, and where you came from, my children?
[The Egyptians fall silent in tension before Hudhayfa speaks.]
Hudhayfa:
From a distant country… a place difficult to live in.
Mazen (continuing):
We came to take revenge on Muzan. He killed our families.
Ali (whispering):
Liar—but let's go with it.
Tamayo (tilting her head, violet eyes narrowing):
You know about Muzan?
Moaz (calm, serious):
Honestly… yes. Even his strengths and weaknesses. That could help—but right now, we're weak. So we must evolve.
Yushiro (angrily, his green demon eyes narrowing):
Why should we trust you, nuisances?
Moaz (small smile):
We may be chaotic and violent… but we're loyal.
[Moaz lowers his head slightly in gratitude.]
Thank you both—especially Tamayo-san, who was like a kind mother to us.
[Tamayo's eyes soften, trembling slightly before she sighs, a small smile forming.]
Very well… thank you, Moaz-kun. But what is your plan?
Moaz (smiling as he explains):
Once I recover, we'll leave. There's a mentor who may help us grow stronger. We'll pass the trial, then begin helping against Muzan.
Tamayo (looking into Moaz's black eyes and confident smile, sighs):
You seem confident. At least, take care of yourself.
Moaz (gently, affection in his eyes):
Of course. I'll be a good child, Mom.
[Tamayo freezes at the word Mom, memories of her children and husband flooding back.]
Tamayo:
…Alright.
[Her violet eyes shimmer as if seeing her past.]
Mazen (whispering to Moamen):
Is Tamayo-san crushing on Moaz?
Yushiro (hearing them, his face turning red like a volcano):
TAMAYOOO-SAAAN!
The Egyptians shout together, Mohannad yelling:
This kid's going solo squad—he's more dangerous than Muzan!
Hudhayfa (hiding behind Eyad):
He's more jealous than Ali with a plate of basbousa.
Yushiro (clenching his fists):
Now… I shall be the father who re-educates.
"Chaos erupts as Yushiro starts beating them in fury, accompanied by bizarre screams."
[Moaz, lying on his bed, smiles and sighs.]
We must grow stronger quickly… to save the Hashira and our companions.
[Tamayo steps forward, gently placing her hand over Moaz's.]
Tamayo (softly):
I want you to promise me something.
Moaz (surprised by her gentle touch, feeling its warmth):
What is it, Tamayo-san?
Tamayo (small smile):
Take care of yourself… and take care of your brothers. I don't want to lose any more children.
[Moaz is moved as he sees a tear in her eyes. He smiles reassuringly.]
Don't worry, Tamayo-san. We'll meet again. Promise.
Tamayo (smiling, sighing to release her pent-up emotions):
Alright… just don't be a naughty child.
Moaz (thinking to himself):
This side of Tamayo never appeared in the anime… Is it because we're living with them now that we feel everything? I have many questions—but I will change everyone's fate, no matter what.
