Demon Slayer: The Naruto Hashira is a pure villain!

Following Yayoi all the way from Asakusa Ward to the deep mountains of Kyobashi Ward, Yushiro, who was being carried in his arms, wished he could get down and walk on his own.

Wasn't this female demon running quite fast when she was chasing me? Why isn't she in a hurry now that I need to speed things up?

As the sky began to lighten, the sheer size of the courtyard, evident from the surrounding wall, was astonishing.

Even after entering the courtyard, there must be some distance to the building, right?

Am I really going to die here today?

Are you kidding me?!

Yushiro's face turned ugly as he began to berate himself for coming out to buy this bag of blood at this time, and for causing trouble for Lady Tamayo.

Tamayo gripped the handle of the medical kit tightly, her eyes filled with regret.

It's truly heartbreaking that I didn't get to see Muzan defeated...

Yayoi casually picked up the note stuck to the door, put it in her pocket without even glancing at it.

"Come in, we've arrived."

Misei pushed open the courtyard gate, put Yushiro on the ground, and beckoned Tamayo to walk into the courtyard.

The sun rose completely at that moment, and its rays fell upon the ground without warning.

"Lord Jushi!"

Yushiro didn't care about anything else. The veins on his arm bulged, and in front of Yayoi, he instantly transformed from a human into a demon.

She broke free of the ropes binding her and rushed to Tamayo's side, shielding her with her body.

Even so, it only slows down the rate at which Lady Tamayo is exposed to sunlight; after I die, Lady Tamayo will still be exposed to sunlight...

"I'm sorry, Lady Tamayo, it's all my fault."

Tamayo felt no scorching sunlight at all, subconsciously believing that Yushiro had shielded her from the deadly sun.

"Yushiro... if we can meet again in the next life, I will agree..."

"Hey, you two, stop overacting!" Yayoi leaned against a pillar in the newly built corridor, looking speechlessly at Yushiro, who was moved to tears, and Tamayo, whose face was full of emotion.

"Is the sun shining on you two? Why are you making such a racket?"

Yushiro belatedly realized that... he didn't seem to feel any burning pain.

Once they calmed down, Tamayo and Yushiro turned their attention to the large, shaded corridor in the courtyard.

From the gate to the main building, and to places that look like gardens or training grounds, there are shaded corridors everywhere.

The eaves of the main building have also been widened, so at least living in this courtyard, you don't have to worry about being exposed to the sun.

"..." Yushiro looked at the strange courtyard, then at Yayoi standing in the corridor with her arms crossed in front of her and a look of disdain on her face. A bold guess appeared in Yushiro's mind.

The guy in front of me is incredibly strong, and unlike other swordsmen, he doesn't shout and fight at the sight of a ghost.

And from the time I met him until now, it's always been at night; I've never seen him bask in the sun.

Will it be...

"Are you also a demon who has broken free from Muzan's control?"

These words completely extinguished Yayoi's desire to communicate with Yushiro.

Idiots are contagious, and associating with idiots will shorten your lifespan.

Yayoi glanced at Tamayo with pity. It must have been tough for Miss Tamayo to live with such a brainless guy for so many years.

"Ms. Tamayo, please come with me."

Following Yayoi through the winding corridors, we arrived at a room that was completely shaded.

Yayoi lit the lamps in the room, and Tamayoshi was able to see the layout of the room clearly.

It's just an ordinary bedroom, but the ghost tied to the bed makes it seem less ordinary.

"I'm back, Mom." Yayoi completely put away her hostile demeanor and took the initiative to approach Shizu to greet her.

Yayoi was met with a low growl from Shizu.

"Is this...your mother?"

Tamayo looked at Shizu, then at Yayoi, who was standing beside Shizu and seemed like a completely different person, and asked softly.

Yayoi turned around, her back to Shizu, and looked at Tamayo: "Hey, if this isn't mine, how could it be yours?"

Seriously, I knew idiocy was contagious. I was already calling her "Mom" and she still asked such a stupid question.

Just as Yushiro was about to charge forward for love, Tamayo grabbed his arm and stopped him.

"Yushiro, you must be polite."

"Yes, Lady Tamayo." Yushiro was immediately appeased and stood obediently behind Tamayo.

Tamayo placed the medicine box on the table beside her, opened it, and took out a syringe.

"I need some of the lady's blood samples for analysis."

Yayoi had seen this procedure done by Kanae before; it was indeed a common practice for doctors before treatment, so she didn't stop Tamayo and moved aside.

"Be gentle."

"I understand."

Tamayo softened her movements and drew a vial of blood from Shizu's arm.

I only came here because of Yayoi's blackmail, and I never intended to wholeheartedly help with the treatment.

After learning that Yayoi was the child of the demon-like mother in front of her, Tamayo's attitude towards Yayoi changed fundamentally.

A child who would go to such lengths for their mother cannot be a malicious person.

He is helping not only Yayoi, but also the children who lost their minds after being turned into demons more than four hundred years ago and died tragically at his hands.

If my children had been as strong as this girl, and had a doctor who could restore the sanity of ghosts, would I have been able to stay by my children's side and watch them grow up, just like this lady?

Tamayo turned around and transferred the blood sample from the syringe to a test tube. She then met Yayoi's wary gaze and smiled gently.

"Don't worry, I will do my best to help you, Madam."

"I haven't asked how to address you yet." Tamayo's hands didn't stop moving as she professionally dripped a few drops of a drug that Yayoi didn't recognize into a test tube containing blood.

"My surname is Sangdao."

"Miss Sangdao, has Madam Sangdao ever eaten people?"

BOOM!

Fireworks were exploding in Yayoi's mind, going off endlessly.

Mrs. Sangdao? Wow! What a lovely title.

Hmm! Just based on that title, this ghost doctor and her little sycophant are definitely not going to die in my territory.

It takes time for the blood and medicine to react. Tamayo had hoped to use this time to learn more about Shizu so that the subsequent treatment plan could be formulated more accurately.

Who would have thought that as soon as he asked the question, Yayoi, who was standing opposite him, suddenly became very cheerful and just kept smiling without answering?

A very strange feeling startled Yushiro, who instantly moved in front of Tamayo and looked at Yayoi warily, fearing that this mentally unstable guy might suddenly attack Lady Tamayo.

"Miss Kuwashima?" Tamayo asked softly again.

"Ah, that's me." Yayoi came to her senses and looked at Tamayo with an even more friendly gaze.

This is a ghost! It's definitely a ghost.

"Don't worry, my mother turned into a ghost the night before last. She didn't eat people. I just fed her a few bowls of blood the night she turned into a ghost."

"That makes things much easier," Tamayo smiled, explaining proactively, "The success rate of modifying a demon who hasn't eaten a human is far higher than that of a demon who has."

"Oh?" Yayoi's eyes shone even brighter as she looked at Tamayo with anticipation: "Ms. Tamayo, are you really that experienced?"

"You could say that," Tamayo nodded. "After successfully becoming a demon, Yushiro, who had never eaten a human, only spent six months regaining his normal human sanity."

"What about the demons that ate people?" Yayoi asked.

"There are currently no successful cases of ghosts that have eaten people."

"..." Yayoi narrowed her eyes with a hint of unease. "Ms. Tamayo, are you implying that Yushiro is the only successful case you've handled in the past few centuries?"

"Yes."

Damn it! What a load of rubbish! This is a complete quack!

It took hundreds of years to become this one, and we don't even know if it was just a lucky accident that made her successful!

With this level of expertise, you dare to guarantee that you can reform my dear mother!

If I don't hang them both up in the tree and leave them to bake in the sun for three hours tonight, I'll have wasted all my time looking forward to this!

Chapter 39 Selfish Yayoi, Online Left and Right Brain Battle

Seeing Yayoi's expression change from smiling just a second ago, Tamayo realized that Yayoi had misunderstood and quickly explained:

“Miss Kuwashima, please don’t misunderstand. This kind of medicine that restores the sanity of demons is not safe and can be life-threatening.”

"It's just that ghosts who have eaten humans have a higher dependence on human blood and flesh, making it difficult for them to regain their sanity with medicine."

“Ghosts that have never eaten humans have become so rare in the last few hundred years that there are almost none, which is why Yushiro is the only successful case.”

Yayoi lowered her hand from the hilt of her Nichirin Blade at her waist, and her gaze toward Yushiro and Tamayo became friendly again.

"Hey, you should have said so earlier. Are you sure there's no risk involved?"

"Yes, Miss Kuwashima, there is no risk in simply restoring your original sanity."

Only after Tamayo's repeated assurances did Yayoi temporarily dispel some of her concerns.

Once the reaction between the blood and the reagents in the test tube was complete, Tamayo returned to analyzing the blood.

While analyzing the situation, Yushiro assisted in preparing and recording the dosage of the medicine.

Seeing that the two ghosts were busy with important matters, Yayoi, who couldn't help much, wisely quieted down and sat down next to Shizu.

Looking into Shizu's not-so-clear eyes, Yayoi felt conflicted.

Once she regains her senses, will the mother be willing to stay at her post?
