"Never mind, I'll just have to try and see!"
Following his habit of using it early to get the CD early, Kitagawa Yu then immediately activated the Pain Curse.
"How many floors does a bag of rice have to carry!"
The spell, brimming with chuunibyou (adolescent delusions of grandeur), made Kitagawa Yu feel extremely embarrassed, especially since Elena and Chizuka were right next to him, both looking at him like he was an idiot, which made his face burn even more.
But inexplicably, perhaps due to the principle of reversal at the extremes or quantum mechanics, he felt a sudden surge of pleasure amidst his shame.
This pleasure seemed to have a strange magic, making him feel vaguely addicted and unable to resist wanting to do it a few more times.
Fortunately, his reason prevailed again, and he quickly suppressed these strange thoughts.
However, Nakime on the other side was in a much worse situation.
In the distant, underground Infinity Castle, Nakime, who had nothing to do except pull people out of Muzan's orders, was sleeping soundly on her soft, luxurious bed, just like any other day, holding her biwa.
Just then, an invisible and eerie force suddenly descended, and the unprecedented pain caused her entire body to twist and convulse. Her mouth involuntarily opened to its limit until the corners of her mouth were torn, and she wanted to scream but could not utter a sound.
It felt as if every nerve in my body was magnified to its limit, then frantically devoured by millions of ants, and then alternately assaulted by ice and fire.
It was as if every cell had been thrown into the eighteenth level of hell, each enduring those tortures.
And this is only the physical pain endured.
While her body was being tormented by this extreme pain, her soul was not spared either. This strange curse seemed to have a life of its own, constantly tormenting her soul in different ways, while also amplifying the cowardice, fear, despair, and many other emotions in her heart.
The indescribable, extreme pain made her, whose willpower was not strong to begin with, so painful that she could no longer even think.
Normally, under such indescribable extreme pain, the cursed person is extremely prone to collapse, disintegrate, and die, both physically and spiritually.
For example, cardiac arrest, soul shattering, etc.
An ordinary person probably couldn't even last a second, but this curse also contains a special power.
This special power can protect the cursed target from dying from the pain directly, but rather until the curse has completely devoured all their life force and soul power before they die.
In fact, this curse is sustained by the life force and soul power of the cursed person.
Kitagawa Yu's technique was like lighting a match and throwing it into a can of gasoline, setting it ablaze.
Without interference from other factors, the flame will not go out until the gasoline is completely consumed.
Unfortunately, Nakime, who possesses the strength of an Upper Moon demon, has many other advantages. Her physical vitality is hundreds of times that of a normal human, and her soul, after transforming into a demon, has also increased to more than ten times that of an ordinary person. This is going to be quite a challenge for her.
A healthy, ordinary adult can be freed in just one day, but for Nakime, even calculated based on soul power, it would take at least ten days.
Kitagawa Yu doesn't yet know the specifics of Nakime's situation, and he doesn't plan to use his lock-on ability, which he only has once a week, to observe Nakime.
Anyway, he'll get feedback as long as Nakime dies. And even if he finds out, he won't feel sorry for Nakime.

Chapter 116 I'm used to it
Unlike J. Futaro and Akaza.
When Nakime was still human, although she was very poor because of her husband's gambling, she was not in a situation where she could not survive. Moreover, she had good looks and ways to make a living. If she wanted, she could have left her husband and lived a good life.
However, she suppressed her anger and resentment.
One day, she discovered that her husband wanted to pawn her most beloved pipa and the expensive kimono she wore when playing it, all for the purpose of gambling. This triggered a surge of anger that ignited the obsession and murderous desires hidden deep within her.
That day, she held a hammer and personally killed her husband.
Besides nervousness and fear after the murder, she was also incredibly excited, which made her produce a beautiful tone even though her fingers were a little stiff when she went on stage to perform.
From then on, she became completely twisted. Before each performance, she would kill someone, indiscriminately killing people regardless of their character.
Until she was choosing her target, she happened to pick the 'lone' Muzan Kibutsuji.
After learning about her past, Muzan Kibutsuji admired her greatly and turned her into a demon.
However, after learning that the demonic art she awakened was an invaluable spatial ability, Muzan Kibutsuji valued her even more, but he also kept her like a caged bird.
Of course, because of the demon blood within her that distorted her will, Nakime was not dissatisfied with losing her freedom. On the contrary, she was deeply infatuated with Muzan Kibutsuji and enjoyed it.
Such a guy, similar to Doma, is clearly not worthy of any sympathy.
So his most important task right now is...
"Sleep, sleep~"
No longer needing to maintain her image, Kitagawa Yu let out a long yawn, quickly washed up, changed into her pajamas, and then, as soon as she returned to her room, threw off the covers and crawled into bed.
By the time Elena and Chizuka returned from washing up, he had already been asleep for quite some time.
"This guy fell asleep way too fast!"
"He must have exhausted himself when he used the healing spell earlier. He was almost collapsing when he treated Shoko's ear last time."
Chizuka looked at Kitagawa Yu gently and said softly, recalling Kitagawa Yu's disheveled appearance at that time, and a smile unconsciously appeared in her pure ruby eyes.
Elena, standing beside her, lingered on Kitagawa Yu's face for a moment before her gaze fell on the bed beside him.
Because he was afraid of being disturbed if he returned first, Kitagawa Yu chose the innermost spot.
so.
"I'll sleep here."
"Let me do it. Elena, you come from another world, so you probably aren't used to sleeping next to a boy like this, right?"
"It's okay, I'm already used to it after traveling with Yu last time~"
"."
In the end, the two decided to settle the matter with a friendly game of rock-paper-scissors, and Chizuka unsurprisingly won by relying on her celestial insight and prediction.
"Damn it"
Elena watched helplessly as Chizuka happily snuggled up to Kitagawa Yu and snuggled into bed. She clenched her fists in anger, and at the same time, a thought suddenly popped into her head.
"How about I learn some breathing techniques? I remember Shinobu Kocho mentioned that practicing Flower Breathing can greatly enhance dynamic vision and perception?"
On the other side, Chizuka lay on her side, secretly watching the sleeping Kitagawa Yu, also thinking about the breathing technique.
"I wonder if I'm suited to practicing Thunder Breathing? If I'm not, then I'll have to break up with Yu, right? No way! With my talent, I'm sure I'll be fine."
The healing technique had taken its toll, and since it was already bedtime, Kitagawa Yu slept straight through until evening.
However, strictly speaking, I only slept for eight hours, which isn't much.
On the other hand, Chizuka and Elena, even though nothing was wrong, slept just as much as he did. He had already gotten up and changed his clothes when they finally sat up, rubbing their eyes.
"I feel like my biological clock is going to get messed up," Chizuka muttered to herself as she looked at the reddish sunset outside the window.
"It's alright, because demons only appear at night and hide during the day. Many members of the Demon Slayer Corps are night owls who sleep during the day and are energetic at night~" Kitagawa Yu said with a smile.
Then there was a knock on the door.
Shinobu Kocho and Kanae came with a reply from Gojiro Kuwashima to wake them up for dinner.
Besides the two, there are also Kanao Tsuyuri and Aoi Kanzaki following behind them. As for the three beady-eyed characters who are responsible for comedy in the main story, they are probably too young. Although they have been adopted by the Butterfly Mansion, they have not been assigned any work yet.
"Senior Kuwajima Gojiro has replied and agreed to Kitagawa-kun's decision to become his apprentices. He will also come to the Butterfly Mansion to teach you personally."
"Huh? Senior Kuwashima Gojiro is coming in person? Is that alright?"
Kitagawa Yu was somewhat surprised, since usually, it should be the other way around for them to visit the master in person.
"That old man just didn't want to reveal where he was living in seclusion," Shinobu Kocho explained with a pout, which made Yu Kitagawa realize what was going on.
"He also said that he could teach you the Thunder Breathing Technique, but whether you can learn it is another matter. After all, they haven't observed it with their own eyes, and they don't know if you have the talent to practice the Thunder Breathing Technique."
"I understand this."
Kitagawa Yu didn't take it seriously.
Can't learn it? Impossible. With the cheat of the power of wishes, how could there be anything in this world that he can't learn?
Elena, who was standing to the side, breathed a sigh of relief. Now she no longer had to worry about whether to go and learn Thunder Breathing with Kitagawa Yu or stay behind to learn Flower Breathing by herself.
"Furthermore, my lord sent a letter saying he wants to meet with you," Kanae continued.
"Is it about that intelligence?"
Kitagawa Yu readily agreed.
Now that we have the Thunder Breathing technique, we should deliver this information to the Demon Slayer Corps as soon as possible so that we can kill Muzan Kibutsuji sooner.
Not only Elena, but also someone accustomed to the highly developed modern world of technology and entertainment, didn't want to linger in this barren world for too long.
After dinner, the three of them, along with Kanae and Shinobu Kocho, were blindfolded and taken to the Demon Slayer Corps headquarters, where they met Kagaya Ubuyashiki.
Just like in the anime, this man, whose face was disfigured and whose body was weakened to the point of near death by the curse, possessed a unique charisma that made people feel incredibly close to him and couldn't help but believe in him.
However, Kitagawa Yu's gaze only lingered on him for a moment before turning to the beautiful, fairy-like white-haired woman supporting him beside him.
"This is my wife, Ubuyashiki Amane. She is also from a family of priests."
Kitagawa Yu nodded politely, thinking to himself that he had just thought of it.
He sensed a unique power emanating from Ubuyashiki Amane. Although this power was very weak, it subtly touched the low-grade divine power within him. If he wasn't mistaken, this should be spiritual power.
"Um... I'm sorry to ask, but is there anyone in the priest family with stronger spiritual power than Lady Ubuyashiki?"
Although it was somewhat impolite, Kitagawa Yu was genuinely interested in it.
Ubuyashiki Amane possesses the same gentleness and patience as her husband. She visited Tokito Muichiro several times in an attempt to invite him to join the Demon Slayer Corps, only to be turned away each time. She was even pelted with stones and splashed with cold water, yet she remained neither angry nor discouraged. Naturally, she wouldn't be angry now.
"My talent and strength are just average in the family. The most powerful patriarch in the family has at least three times my spiritual power."
"."
How to say this.
Three times sounds like a lot, but the problem is that Ubuyashiki Amane's spiritual power is only equivalent to three low-grade divine power. Even if it is tripled, it still won't reach the level of one mid-grade divine power.
"No wonder the priests don't join forces with the Demon Slayer Corps. With their strength, even if they wanted to help, they probably couldn't do much."
Kitagawa Yu shook his head secretly, no longer thinking about it, and then told Ubuyashiki Kagaya all the information he had obtained through the plot.
"The Twelve Demon Moons under Muzan Kibutsuji's command are much stronger than you imagine, especially the Upper Moon."
"Upper Moon One, Kokushibo, was the founder of Breathing Techniques and the older brother of Yoriichi Tsugikuni, the strongest swordsman."
