Demon Slayer: The Naruto Hashira is a pure villain!

A male bodhisattva with a slender waist and long legs.

"Pfft!" When Kuang Jin saw Yayoi's series of actions, he couldn't help but laugh out loud, just like Tian Yuan.

Just as he was about to nudge Sanemi beside him to make him look over, he saw that Sanemi's eyes were somewhat glazed over, and then a strange blush rose on his face.

"No... Sanemi, what's wrong? Your wound has already healed, hasn't it? You can't have gotten a fever again because of an infection, can you?"

Kuang Jin raised his hand with some doubt to reach for Sanemi's forehead, but Sanemi grabbed his wrist and stopped him.

"No, I don't have a fever."

Sanemi's gaze did not leave Yayoi.

"Kuang Jin, don't you think Yayoi is actually quite cute?"

"..." Kuang Jin's gaze towards Shimi was somewhat indescribable.

what is this?

All that arguing about partners back then was useless and meaningless. You should have spent that time killing more ghosts. Was your junior brother possessed?

What's wrong? You've lost your brain since you started dating?

Also, is the word "cute" even appropriate for a female demon? If Yayoi finds out, won't she be hung from a tree?

Kuang Jin shook his head, not wanting to say anything more to his lovestruck junior brother.

"Alright, if you think it's cute, then it's cute." Kuang Jin clutched his chest, looking hurt. "But please consider the feelings of single people. Until I find my soulmate, let's not talk about this kind of topic, okay?"

"Useless senior brother," Sanemi retorted mercilessly.

Kuang Jin's expression became even more distorted, as if he had been thoroughly hurt.

“Sanemi, you’ve changed. You used to say that your favorite person was your senior brother.”

"...When did I ever say such disgusting things?" Sanemi was speechless.

"Yes, of course I do," Kuang Jin said confidently. "I even dreamed about it the day before yesterday."

"Hahahaha! You're really funny, Kagaya."

The rabbit laughed without any regard for its image, and walked up to Kuang Jin in a very familiar manner, hooking its arm around Kuang Jin's neck.

"How come I never thought of that?"

"Lord Water Column".

Kuang Jin was still getting used to his new identity, and greeted Sabito when he saw him.

"Huh?" Sabito was taken aback, then patted Kuang Jin's chest. "You've also been promoted to Wind Pillar, so why are you called Water Pillar Lord?"

"Just call me Qintu."

Kuang Jin then realized what he had just said, and scratched his face somewhat embarrassedly, "Haha, I'm not used to it yet."

"Then you can just call me by my name, Kuang Jin."

"Okay, brother."

Of the four people, the two more talkative and outgoing senior brothers chatted away, while the other two junior brothers, one disliked talking and the other was too lazy to say much, simply greeted everyone and served as background figures.

When Sanemi walked over to the three people in the courtyard, he subtly adjusted his position and moved next to Yayoi while Sabito and Kōchika were having a good chat.

"Um... it's been a long time."

Yayoi didn't reply, but looked Sanemi up and down, and in front of everyone, she blew a lewd whistle at Sanemi.

"How come I never noticed you had such a great figure before?"

"Tsk tsk tsk, is this a male bodhisattva?"

Chapter 78 What's wrong? What's wrong?! What's wrong with me saying a few dirty things to my fiancé?

His words astonished everyone present.

The two senior brothers, still chatting about their adorable junior brother, Tengen, adjusting his golden armbands to reveal the ugly-cute pattern engraved on Suma, Giyuu, who was zoning out whether to invite Sabito to eat salmon and radish after the meeting, and... Gyomei, who was still trying to chant sutras to purify Yayoi, all looked towards Yayoi and Sanemi.

"Male...Bodhisattva?"

Sanemi and Sabito, who were not well-read, did not understand Yayoi's meaning.

Even Kuang Jin and Yi Yong, who were more well-read, did not understand Yayoi's meaning.

Only Tengen looked at Yayoi and Sanemi with a complicated expression.

Maki and Yayoi were kindred spirits, and Yayoi would occasionally bring Maki some strange sketchbooks.

The term "male bodhisattva" had been used by Mu Xu before, but only in private... in bed...

Uh... Yayoi probably meant that, right?

Xingming, who had been practicing Buddhism for many years, also experienced the blessing of losing his sight, and the image of Shimi automatically formed in his mind.

A male Bodhisattva... should be a kind-hearted and compassionate person.

It seems that among the newly promoted pillars of wind, there is such a person.

“Namo…” Xingming’s goodwill towards Shimi skyrocketed.

Tengen hesitated before speaking, trying to urge Yayoi to be careful with her words, "Yayoi, isn't it a bit inappropriate to say things like that to a man you're not very familiar with?"

"I haven't even settled the score with you for eavesdropping yet, and you're already interfering with me?"

"Do you think you can hear this kind of talk for free?"

Yayoi clicked her tongue, glancing sideways at Tengen with a displeased expression. "What's wrong with me saying these kinds of dirty things to my fiancé? Is it illegal? Go ahead and call the authorities to arrest me!"

"..."

"..."

His two sentences still astonished everyone present.

Apart from Kuang Jin, the slow-witted Yi Yong, and the old eater Xing Ming, the other two who had never seen the world looked terrified.

"No? When did this happen?" Sarutobi reacted particularly strongly. "Brother, you are truly a hero among heroes, a man among men!"

Sabito darted to Sanemi's side in a flash, grabbed Sanemi's hand, and shook it up and down.

"You actually had the nerve to get engaged to Yayoi, you're so brave!"

Before Sanemi could react, Sabito leaned close to his ear and whispered, "Shinazugawa, if Yayoi forced you, just blink. I can't save you, but I'll secretly report it to the authorities for you..."

Sabito underestimated Yayoi's hearing; before he could finish speaking, Yayoi grabbed his shoulder.

Yayoi's face turned as black as the bottom of a pot. She gritted her teeth and copied Tengen's script, "Sabito, isn't it a bit inappropriate to say things like that to someone else's fiancé?"

"...How did you hear that?" Sabito immediately let go of Sanemi's hand, turned his head away guiltily with an embarrassed smile, "I was just joking."

"I'll make a joke at you after the meeting~ Don't go."

"Hey, hey, don't fight!" Kuang Jin, who wasn't very familiar with Yayoi and Sabito's way of getting along, stepped forward to mediate, genuinely worried that the two might start fighting in the yard at any moment.

“It’s alright, Kugeno,” Tengen patted Kuang Jin on the shoulder, “They’re often like this, you’ll get used to it.”

"Uh...is that so?" Kuang Jin withdrew his hand from the fight and looked gratefully at Tianyuan, who had explained things to him. "Thank you for telling me all this, Senior Yuzui."

Otherwise, I'll really become part of their game.

No, is this how the Pillars communicate their feelings?

"Oh my, you've all arrived! I didn't expect that I, who was closest to you, would be the last to arrive."

Kanae appeared at the door, waving and greeting everyone as she approached.

Sabito, who has a strong desire to share, couldn't wait to share this jaw-dropping news with Kanae, who arrived later.

"That's right, that's right...that's exactly it..."

Sabito spoke while gesturing, afraid of missing any key information, which Kanae couldn't understand.

I expected to see Kanae's surprised expression, but to my surprise, Kanae's expression barely changed; she simply smiled gently.

"Oh... I've heard Yayoi mention this before."

"However, I still want to thank you for telling me this, Sabito."

Wait, how did Kanae know about this beforehand?

Sabito's sharing failed, and he didn't see that Kanae was as shocked as he was. Somewhat frustrated, he returned to Giyuu's side.

"How could this happen... Giyuu..."

"Why is it that Yayoi was able to get ahead of me..."

After witnessing the chaotic scene, the slow-thinking Yiyong belatedly realized:

"Oh, Yayoi and Shinazugawa are engaged."

"...You're only just realizing it now?" Sabito cried out, then looked up at Giyuu, who had no expression on his face.

"Hmm." Giyuu's lips curled up by a single pixel, and Sabito, who knew Giyuu well, got what he meant.

It turns out that my somewhat slow-witted junior brother is quite proud of himself.

"Okay...that's great."

The noisy exchange of feelings came to an abrupt end after Kagaya appeared.

Everyone present, except Yayoi, switched to serious work mode and knelt down on one knee to greet Kagaya.

Yayoi looked left and right, then slowly squatted down. After Kagaya said there was no need for formalities, she stood up with the others.

Well... it's not that I didn't want to kneel, it's just that the other person was a beat too slow, and I didn't have time.

Next time, definitely next time.

This time, Yayoi didn't need to make a fuss; Kagaya took the initiative to suggest going indoors to complete this lengthy meeting.

Yayoi and Kanae switched seats and sat in front of Sanemi.

Yayoi is so familiar with the process that she can recite it from memory; there's nothing new about it.

During the half-day meeting, the only part I could participate in was reporting on the situation in my jurisdiction. I could leave the rest to them to discuss. I just waited until after the meeting to ask Kanae what I was supposed to do.

The meeting was boring, so Yayoi took out a charcoal pencil and a notepad from her pocket and started daydreaming.
