Chapter 56: Ubuyashiki kagaya's invitation
---
Seven days passed in the blink of an eye.
In the familiar alley, the sisters Shinobu and Kanae stood side by side.
They looked similar and dressed similarly, but they gave off completely different vibes. The former was tall, beautiful, and gentle, while the latter was petite, cute, and dignified.
Although Kanae's injury had not yet healed completely, it basically didn't affect her movements. She looked around for a while.
"Shinobu, do you think Mr. Aomura will come?"
Shinobu looked at her helplessly. "Sister, you've asked this question five times!"
"Really?" Kanae smiled gently, not embarrassed. "I guess I can't hold my temper."
Shinobu understood her sister.
Her sister always hoped that humans and demons could coexist peacefully.
Previously, this was always an unrealistic fantasy, but with Mr. Aomura, it had a possibility of success.
"Mr. Aomura is not someone who breaks his word. Since he promised, he will definitely come."
As soon as she finished speaking, they both looked at the entrance of the alley.
A figure appeared where it had been empty just moments ago.
"Sorry for the wait."
Aoki walked into the alley, his eyes casually sweeping around to ensure there were only the Butterfly sisters present, with no ambush in sight.
"We just arrived not long ago." Kanae showed a gentle smile.
Shinobu quietly rolled her eyes.
"How is your body?" Aoki asked.
"Thanks to Mr. Aomura's medicine, it's fine now."
After a few pleasantries, Aoki didn't beat around the bush and said directly, "So, Miss Kanae, what do you want to talk to me about?"
"Before that, I'd like to ask, Mr. Aomura, do you eat people?" Kanae looked at Aoki with burning eyes.
"I never eat people!" Aoki said calmly.
He didn't mind discussing this topic and was willing to show his condition, but whether others believed him or not was beyond his control.
Kanae took a deep breath and said seriously, "So, Mr. Aomura, are you willing to cooperate with our Demon Slayer Corps?"
"No!" Aoki shook his head. "What if you have a change of heart and want to kill me?"
Kanae hurriedly said, "No! I can guarantee with my life that Mr. Aomura will never be in danger during our cooperation!"
Aoki glanced at her. "When did I say I was worried about my own safety? I'm afraid that I will get unhappy and kill you!"
Unlike those organizations in other worlds that always hide dirty deeds, the Demon Slayer Corps is very pure and exists specifically to fight against demons.
The leaders of the Demon Slayer Corps, including the Ubuyashiki clan and the Hashira, are idealists and genuinely good people.
He was unwilling to contact the Demon Slayer Corps because of his identity as a demon.
If he were an ordinary human, the Demon Slayer Corps would be very reliable, and the Hashira are people who prioritize the lives of ordinary humans above their own.
Puff!
Hearing this, Shinobu couldn't help laughing out loud, and quickly turned serious again under her sister's gaze.
"Mr. Aomura, although you are very strong, our Demon Slayer Corps is not weak either!"
"Mr. Aomura, we are very sincere. Would you reconsider?"
Kanae felt a bit helpless.
Things were developing very differently from what she expected, and now she didn't know what to do.
Aoki said, "Okay, we can cooperate!"
"Huh?"
Shinobu and Kanae were both stunned.
This change was too fast and too easy, right?
Aoki smiled. "I was just joking with you earlier."
Seven days ago, when Kanae mentioned that she had something important to discuss with him, he had roughly guessed their intentions.
His willingness to come here actually showed his attitude.
He needed more and more experience to level up. Demons were becoming harder to find, and the experience gained was diminishing. It was increasingly difficult to level up by himself.
He had suffered enough from insufficient intelligence in the past two months.
Now that the Demon Slayer Corps had reached out, he had no reason to refuse.
As for whether this was a trap, he didn't care or was willing to take the risk.
With his current strength, even if all nine Hashira attacked him together, they couldn't keep him.
Just kidding… Shinobu felt a bit speechless.
Kanae didn't mind at all and said excitedly, "Great! But, Mr. Aomura, I need to report this to our leader first."
"No problem, you can discuss it."
Aoki said.
Seven days later.
They met again in the alley.
As soon as they met, Kanae said, "Mr. Aomura, our leader wants to meet and talk with you in person."
Aoki was surprised. "The head of the Ubuyashiki family wants to see me?"
Kanae smiled. "The lord said that since we want to cooperate, we should establish real trust between us."
"Brave!" Aoki said.
The Demon Slayer Corps would certainly be aware of his strength and abilities.
It was absolutely risking his life for Ubuyashiki Kagaya to meet him.
However, this wasn't surprising.
In order to increase the probability of defeating Muzan Kibutsuji, Ubuyashiki Kagaya could personally use explosives to send himself, his wife, and children to the sky.
In the original work, he went against the majority's opinion and kept Tanjiro and Nezuko alive, laying the foundation for defeating Muzan Kibutsuji.
With extraordinary wisdom and courage, although Ubuyashiki Kagaya wasn't physically strong, he was indeed the soul of the Demon Slayer Corps.
Kanae added, "The lord also said that he had a premonition that Mr. Aomura would be the key to defeating Muzan Kibutsuji."
"Premonition?"
Aoki's eyes moved slightly.
The Demon Slayer World isn't as simple as it seems.
Muzan Kibutsuji is actually from the Ubuyashiki clan.
After he became a demon, the Ubuyashiki clan was cursed, and the children born became weaker and weaker, almost leading to their extinction at one point.
Under the advice of the Lord of Gods, the Demon Slayer Corps was established, and they began to fight against demons, marrying people from the priest clan for generations, finally getting rid of the fate of extermination.
However, no one could live past the age of thirty.
Curse, prophecy, hell, reincarnation… The Demon Slayer World seems weak, but something extremely terrifying seems to be hidden behind it.
Aoki glanced at the sky.
Is there a god in this world?
Muzan said he had never encountered heavenly punishment, but the birth of Tsugikuni Yoriichi, the appearance of breathing techniques, stripes, red swords, and the transparent world—aren't they butcher knives aimed at Muzan?
If he replaces Muzan and becomes the ultimate creature, will he also face heavenly punishment?
Aoki thought for a while and shook his head secretly.
Even if there are gods in this world, their power to interfere must be very limited.
Otherwise, it wouldn't have taken a thousand years to solve Muzan Kibutsuji.
Now is not the time to consider these things.
Aoki looked at Kanae. "I am looking forward to meeting the Ubuyashiki family."
