Seeing her trying to appear calm, Ryosuke silently opened his palm.
Pear blossoms: | ? ? ? |
Pear Blossom's eyes widened like copper bells!
How did I leave behind evidence?!
Last night it seems like...
Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!
Die, die, die!
Rika hurriedly grabbed a wet towel and rushed over, pressing down on Ryosuke's hand to wipe it, while incoherently apologizing repeatedly:
"I'm so sorry! I'm so sorry! Ryosuke-nii!!! I...I didn't mean to!"
"I...I was just so afraid you wouldn't wake up...I was so scared...and then...and..."
"It's all Grandpa's fault! He said massage would make you get better faster, yes! That's it!"
Her voice grew softer and softer as she spoke, and she lowered her head.
Ryosuke was both amused and exasperated, his feelings indescribably complex.
That doesn't seem right either...
Are you afraid of losing everything, so you're trying your best to make up for the regrets?
Looking at the shy girl, Ryosuke felt a strange sense of regret.
I feel like I missed out on a fortune.
This girl's personality...when did it become so complicated?!
Where did they learn such strange knowledge and audacious behavior?!
Momoyama didn't teach this!
Could it be Hina Tsuru and the others?
Very! Possibly!
Uzui Tengen!!!
Can't you control your wives?
They've ruined the pear blossoms!
Pear Blossom clumsily wiped for a long time before timidly raising her head, her big eyes brimming with tears.
"It's...it's clean now...Ryosuke-nii...please...please don't be angry..."
Ryosuke looked at her pitiful appearance and sighed heavily.
I felt that the little strength I had managed to regain was completely drained by this astonishing discovery.
I inexplicably became a gold miner for Pear Blossom...
It might have been more than once!
Ryosuke subconsciously lifted a corner of the blanket and glanced down, his eyes filled with a final struggle and confirmation.
"Other places...you...didn't...?"
No! Absolutely not!!!
She shook her head vigorously, like a rattle-drum, repeatedly waving her hands in denial.
"Only my fingers! Really! I swear! I absolutely didn't touch anything else! I didn't dare to touch it! No... I didn't touch it at all!"
Is there anything you wouldn't dare to do?!
Now that things have come to this, Ryosuke has given up the struggle.
Oh well, I'll just have to make do.
Ryosuke closed his eyes helplessly, his voice tinged with resignation.
"Alright, alright, I understand. You...you can go out now...let me have some peace and quiet."
"Oh...oh! Okay! Ryosuke-nii, you should get some rest!"
As if granted a pardon, Pear Blossom stumbled and ran out of the room.
Ryosuke looked at his two fingers with a helpless expression.
It seems I'll have to mention the establishment of Butterfly Dance to that brat Yaoya when I go to the headquarters for the meeting after I recover from my injury.
If this girl is left unattended any longer, Ryosuke is really afraid that she will awaken some strange new attributes.
Meanwhile, in Infinite City.
The space is upside down and disordered, with doors, windows, and columns pieced together in a way that defies common sense.
The sound of a pipa rang out, and several figures suddenly appeared on different platforms.
The Lower Moon's Lu Fu Nue looked around blankly.
He is not alone.
Not far away, a slender figure was also looking around, just like him.
She was a woman dressed in a gorgeous kimono, with raven-black hair adorned with vermilion hairpins. She had a beautiful face, bright red lips, and a half-smile playing at the corners of her mouth.
However, all this gentle facade was completely shattered by her left eye.
In his blood-red eyes, the word "Next" was clearly etched.
The first of the waning crescent moons, the Guhuoniao.
Fu Nue was startled and subconsciously looked away, not daring to stare any longer.
At the same time, he quickly spotted several other colleagues.
A white-haired boy wearing a spiderweb-patterned kimono stood on a leaning pillar, expressionless.
That brat is so arrogant, relying on Muzan-sama's favor!
Beside him were Lower Moon Three, Byakuya, and a blurry figure in the shadows in the distance.
That was Lower Moon Two, a man of few words, whom I had never dealt with.
The waning moon is already here, so what about the waxing moon...?
However, apart from Nakime holding a biwa, the Upper Moon demons did not descend on the central platform.
Another pipa melody rang out!
All the Lower Moon demons gathered in one place.
Almost simultaneously, everyone sensed that cold and violent aura.
Without a word, the sheer terror gripped the heart of every ghost.
Several ghosts knelt down, not daring to breathe.
Only after a moment's hesitation did he realize how tired he was.
Seeing how dedicated his colleagues were, he reluctantly knelt down as if in a similar manner.
High in the sky, beyond the line of sight, came a series of crisp sounds as glassware shattered.
An even more violent aura instantly pressed down, causing all the Lower Moon demons to hold their breath and dare not move an inch.
Muzan's figure appeared before the demons.
"Lingyuzi is dead."
These three simple words exploded like a thunderclap in the hearts of all the Lower Moon demons!
The fourth and last remaining member of the Lower Moon... is dead?!
“Every time she encountered Zhu, she would run away like a stray dog.”
Muzan's voice continued: "This time, however, we've been defeated by a piece of trash who isn't even a Pillar!"
Fu Nue's heart skipped a beat; immense shock temporarily overwhelmed his fear.
Not a pillar? How could that be!
Besides the Pillars, who else could kill a Lower Moon? Could it be...?
"Could it be a mistake?"
Muzan was the first to speak out what Kamae was thinking.
The immense pressure made Fu Nue feel as if his head was being gripped by an invisible giant hand, about to explode in the next second!
"Are you questioning me?"
Muzan's voice suddenly turned cold.
Fu Nue was terrified and hurriedly said, "My lord! I didn't mean to question you! I..."
Did I ask you to explain?
Muzan's rage erupted like a tsunami!
A deformed arm covered in fangs and blood-red eyes suddenly shot out and swallowed the cauldron whole!
Without even leaving a scream, the aura of Lower Moon Sixth Moon, Kame, vanished without a trace.
The platform was deathly silent, with the stench of blood constantly permeating the air.
The remaining Lower Moons lowered their heads even further, fear engulfing them completely.
"There's still no news about the Blue Spider Lily, and even the location of the Demon Slayer Corps headquarters is still unknown!"
Muzan's gaze sharpened, his voice turning cold.
"Have I been too lenient with you all these years?"
Chapter 49 Promotion! Taking over as the Heungju!
The death of Fu Nue is still vivid in my mind; the blood is not even dry yet.
