Chapter 93 – Blade of the Demon (16)
Seo-joon returned to the Demon Slayer headquarters and reported the facts about Tamayo to Kagaya.
At first, he was taken aback by the idea of collaborating with the goblin, but soon found out that Tamayo was hostile to Muzan, unlike ordinary goblins, and called an emergency juju meeting.
“Anyway, I think holding hands with goblins is a bit like that.”
“Isn’t that too hasty a judgment? She has been the enemy of Muzan for over hundreds of years. Her vast knowledge serves us well.”
“There is a point in that statement. However, goblins can’t be trusted.”
Arguments unfolded.
Kagaya, who was listening quietly, asked Seo-jun.
“What do you think?”
“As I said at the beginning, I think it is right to pursue a partnership. Aren’t we in a position to cover things up?”
“… Haha, that’s right.”
They weren’t in a position to cover things up.
In particular, the Ubu Yashiki clan said that if Muzan could be killed, she might even sell her soul to a demon. It’s not that they’re really like that, it’s just that their hatred and animosity towards Muzan is genuine.
“Let’s look at this first.”
“What is that?”
Seo-joon took something out of his arms.
It looked like a medicine bottle.
“It is a poison that works on goblins that she developed.”
“… Poison, you say?”
“Yes. A poison that can surely kill even a goblin.”
The landowners looked surprised.
Until now, the only way they knew how to kill a goblin was to sever its head with a one-wheeled sword and expose it to the sun.
“If you don’t believe me, you can try it. Everything is prepared.”
They moved to test Seo-jun’s words.
The kidnapped goblin was completely subdued, so it was not difficult to inject the poison.
When about 10 seconds passed after Seo-jun injected the poison.
“Kwaaaaagh?!”
The poisoned goblin started having seizures like crazy.
Purple spots appear on the guy’s skin, gradually expanding the range of erosion. After about 30 seconds, the goblin died completely.
Their eyes wide open.
A positive look comes to everyone’s face.
Those who initially expressed opposition were no different.
“Huh, great.”
Kagaya exclaimed in admiration.
She never dreamed that she would have a poison that works so well with goblins.
But…
“You’re still a little short of dealing with Kibutsuji Muzan.”
“Of course, that will need to be improved in the future. Still, we have the time and budget, so we should be able to develop a poison that works for him as well.”
Especially the wisteria poison.
As an oni, Tamayo couldn’t research it, but if she cooperated, the knowledge she possessed would allow her demon slayer crew to create the poison.
I’m sure it will be of great help.
“Hmm.”
At those words, Kagaya expressed her positive intentions.
After that, it was a breeze. Knowing that her other landowners are also helpful to her, they agreed to a partnership with her because of her positive attitude.
Of course, Seojun’s virtue was great here.
This is because there was little backlash because he made the film unfavorable in the first place.
In that way, Tamayo became a cooperative relationship with the demon squad, and she built a new mansion next to the cloud mansion to develop medicine and poison, and lived there.
***
It’s been quite a while since Tamayo moved in.
In the meantime, Seo-jun was able to get closer to her than she thought.
Originally, this is impossible. No matter how good Seojun is, it is because Tamayo was a woman who risked her entire life to avenge Muzan.
However, Seo-jun’s characteristics made even her fall for her slowly.
Unlike the first time, Tamayo even smiled in front of Seo-jun from time to time. It was a feat that could be called a great development.
‘It would be perfect without that bastard.’
With Yushiro.
Tamayo’s assistant, and the first and last goblin she created herself.
He became a goblin after receiving a proposal right before he died of illness, so he immediately becomes jealous and wary of anyone who receives attention or favors from his benefactor and longing Tamayo.
That’s why it wasn’t bothersome at all.
Even creating opportunities to be alone with Tamayo wasn’t easy.
‘Well, it’s only a matter of time after all.’
If enough of Tamayo’s feelings are built up, Yushiro will become a mere assistant.
When that time comes, no matter how much they interfere, it’s as if the attack has already been completed, so you’ll just have to wait until then.
‘I’ll have to do other things step by step until then.’
There are many things to be done.
Seo-joon moved diligently and began to deal with the backlog.
Among the things that had to be done was to improve Tamayo’s image, but this should be done in advance to make it easier later.
‘Because I have to bring Daki too.’
The most beautiful woman in the world.
Seojun was full of thoughts of taking her too.
However, unlike Tamayo, who was free from Muzan’s control, Daki was properly under Muzan’s control. That’s why if you bring her to the headquarters, she will be exposed unconditionally.
‘But I’m not worried.’
Seo-joon squeezed and opened his hand.
Before the reset, there are characteristics obtained by killing Muzan.
With this, you don’t have to worry about that, and you’ll be able to take Daki perfectly.
It’s been several months since I spent time rechecking my plans like that.
Suma, Makio and Hinatsuru’s delivery date is getting closer.
***
Aye-!!
The child’s loud cry made the interior of the cloud mansion noisy.
Daldaldaldaldaldalal, the expression of Seojun, who was shaking his legs in front of the door, brightens. Hearing a child’s cry meant that the child was born properly.
‘At las!’
To be honest, I was so scared while waiting.
Is this the heart of a married man? My heart still throbbed unresponsively.
“Congratulations, all three are pretty princesses.”
The midwife opened the door and smiled.
It’s a princess, that is, a daughter.
“Can I come in?”
“Yes. You may come in. However, the mother is still very tired, so please be careful.”
Seojun nodded her head and entered the room.
There were Suma, Makio, and Hinatsuru lying on the bed. In the arms of the trio, the child was wrapped in swaddling clothes.
“Ah, Jun…”
“Ehehe, I gave birth to a healthy baby.”
The three greeted Seo-jun with a smile even though they were tired.
After cleansing his body with magical powers, he cautiously approached his bed.
“Everyone suffered. This is our child…”
Seeing the wrinkly face of the child in her arms, something in her heart stirred.
‘… Something good.’
A smile naturally forms on your lips.
Seo-joon reached out and poked the child’s cheek.
“…”
The feeling left on your fingertips.
Seo-joon’s mouth loosens from the warmth that comes from there.
‘This is how it feels.’
I feel like this here too, but how much is it in real life?
If Seo-joon had a chance, he wanted to experience it once.
His ability to live a life of cheating is a fraud.
So, if he keeps going, there is a high probability that he will be able to do it properly in real life. If that time comes, I will definitely try to love in real life.
‘Then where?’
Seo-jun, who woke up from his thoughts, put his abilities into operation.
With this, he will grow up much healthier than a normal child, without getting sick.
‘Next…’
He used his powers to energize the three who were tired from giving birth.
The complexion of three people that I liked in an instant. Seojun smiled and thanked them once again.
“Love you.”
“Me too.”
That’s how Seo-jun became his father.
