Chapter 59: Demon Bloodline Improvement
Giyu Tomioka opened a large umbrella, walked steadily to the box, and tilted the umbrella precisely to block the glaring sunlight for Nezuko.
Seeing that the preparations were complete, Tanjiro stepped forward and opened the box.
As the lid of the box slowly opened, a ghostly aura emanated from the box. The surrounding pillars reflexively put their hands on the hilts of their swords to prevent Nezuko from suddenly attacking and hurting people.
Tanjiro looked at Nezuko in the box, his eyes full of encouragement and comfort. The smile on his face was like the rising sun, warm and gentle, which dissolved the uneasiness in Nezuko's heart.
Nezuko bit the bamboo tube and carefully leaned out of the box.
Her eyes flickered with curiosity and vigilance as she looked around the unfamiliar environment.
When Nezuko saw that she was surrounded by people, an inexplicable fear surged in her heart.
These people's faces were so unfamiliar to Nezuko that she felt a little overwhelmed.
She subconsciously shrank back and hid behind Tanjiro.
Tanjiro felt Nezuko's body trembling, and he patted her head gently, as if to tell Nezuko: "Don't be afraid, I'm here."
With Tanjiro's encouragement, Nezuko gradually relaxed her tense nerves.
She knew that as long as her brother was there, she had nothing to fear.
Tanjiro cast inquiring glances at the surrounding pillars, wanting to know what they thought of Nezuko.
The sight of Nezuko snuggling closely behind Tanjiro reduced everyone's sense of vigilance a lot.
They began to re-examine Nezuko in front of them. Although her body did have some characteristics of a ghost, Nezuko's heart and emotions seemed more like humans.
Fear, uneasiness, and the need for protection and care from others are all emotions that only humans can express. At least in everyone's impression, this is the first time they have seen a demon as rational as Nezuko.
"Um... everyone, please believe me." Tanjiro took a deep breath, as if he wanted to concentrate all his courage and determination in this sentence.
His voice echoed in the air, clear and powerful, "Nezuko really would never hurt humans. She has always tried to restrain her nature."
As he spoke, Tanjiro stood up, slowly and solemnly, and bowed deeply to everyone.
His head was lowered, as if expressing his deepest plea to everyone.
Tanjiro does not want his sister to be misunderstood as a demon, and does not want Nezuko to be surrounded by fear and disgust in the eyes of others.
Therefore, he chose to stand up and use all his courage and strength to protect her and to fight for a chance for Nezuko to be accepted.
At this moment, Lin Yi's voice rang out, breaking the brief silence.
"Young man, please move aside for a moment. I'll check your sister's health."
Tanjiro was slightly stunned and looked at Lin Yi with some surprise.
He looked down at Nezuko in his arms and found that she did not show any disgust.
On the contrary, there seemed to be a hint of curiosity and anticipation in Nezuko's eyes.
Tanjiro gently made room for Lin Yi to observe Nezuko from a closer distance.
Lin Yi took out a candy from his pocket and handed it to Nezuko. The candy's packaging was colorful and exuded an enticing sweet fragrance.
Nezuko's eyes lit up the moment she saw the candy. It was a child's instinctive love for sweets, and her eyes were sparkling with anticipation and surprise.
Tanjiro's family does not have a wealthy life on weekdays, and luxury items like candy are not common.
Therefore, Nezuko has not tasted this sweetness for a long, long time.
"Thank you, brother." Nezuko's voice was soft and pleasant. She thanked Lin Yi timidly, with shyness and gratitude flashing in her eyes.
She carefully took the candy from Lin Yi. The candy looked particularly tempting in her fair palm, exuding a faint sweet fragrance.
Gently peeling off the sugar coating, Nezuko put the candy into her mouth, a satisfied and happy smile on her face.

After Lin Yi's detection, he found that Nezuko's attributes were not outstanding, only slightly stronger than the ordinary waning moon, but her bloodline skills were very conspicuous and unique.
Unlike other evil spirits, Nezuko's demon bloodline is perfect, which even the Demon King Muzan Kibutsuji cannot do.
In the original plot, Tanjiro went to Fujisaki Mountain for the team admission assessment, and that was where the blue red spider lily grew.
Lin Yi guessed that it was very likely that at that time, Tanjiro accidentally came into contact with the pollen of the blue red spider lily, which affected Nezuko's demon bloodline and perfected her bloodline.
"Nezuko, do you want to bask in the sun?" Lin Yi's question was like a stone thrown into a calm lake, attracting everyone's attention.
Nezuko, who was eating candy, looked at Lin Yi. There was a hint of hesitation in her eyes. This question seemed to touch upon some desire or fear deep in her heart.
After a brief silence, Nezuko nodded slightly, giving Lin Yi an affirmative answer.
In Nezuko's perception, Lin Yi doesn't seem like a bad guy.
When Tanjiro heard this, he immediately pulled Nezuko behind him and looked at Lin Yi nervously.
After experiencing several battles with evil spirits, Tanjiro is well aware of the fragility of evil spirits who cannot see the sunlight.
Once the evil spirits are exposed to sunlight, they will be burned, struggle in pain, and then turn to ashes in a few seconds.
This is his cruel understanding of the demon world, and it is also the reason why he tries his best to protect his sister Nezuko.
Tanjiro was afraid that Lin Yi's question was a trap, and that Nezuko would be in danger because of this question.
