"Who are you?" The honest and simple-minded Naho took it seriously and asked Yayoi.

"I am God."

“…Oh.” Naho didn’t believe it, but her gaze toward Yayoi turned sympathetic.

It seems like he's injured his brain; no wonder he came to the Butterfly Mansion.

"Oh, right, Xiao Kui, prepare a bed in advance and bring it over."

"Huh?" Kanzaki Aoi looked puzzled. "Isn't one bed enough for you, Kuwashima-sama?"

"No, Kanae and Shinobu will be back soon, and Kanae will be able to use it."

Upon hearing this, Kanzaki Aoi no longer cared about whether to enter Yayoi's room with her left or right foot, and impulsively rushed to Yayoi's bedside.

"Lady Butterfly is injured?!"

"Yeah, they should be here in about an hour. You and Kanao get ready, I'm going to take a nap."

After explaining to Kanzaki Aoi, Yayoi pulled her hand away from Kanzaki Aoi's, pulled the blanket over her head, and prepared to go to sleep.

Knowing she couldn't get anything else out of this female demon, Kanzaki Aoi turned and left the room with a look of anxiety on her face to prepare the things Yayoi had asked her to do.

Standing at the door, Naho craned her neck to peer into Yayoi's room, but after looking around, she couldn't find the terrifying-looking man.

"That's strange... I remember there were two people..."

……

I slept for a long time; I slept soundly in a familiar environment.

Yayoi was still a little dizzy from sleeping, so she sat up and rubbed her eyes.

When I focused my gaze, I saw that my room was surrounded by a huge crowd of people.

"No, are you being polite?"

"Watching me get out of bed?"

Yayoi spoke up irritably; if she weren't trying to maintain her "seriously ill" persona, she probably would have spat at each of them.

"Namo..." Xingming, who had single-handedly blocked the entire window, twirled the prayer beads in his hand. "Sangdao, it's truly fortunate that you've woken up."

The people in front of Xingming also looked at Yayoi with regret.

Sabito, who was closest to Yayoi, even had tears in his eyes.

"No, why are you all acting like you're about to die? I survived, didn't I?"

Saruto raised his hand to wipe his eyes, looked away, and took the initiative to act as the harbinger of death.

"My lord said that swordsmen who awaken their markings will not live past the age of twenty-five."

"Oh, and then what? What does that have to do with me?"

"Kuang Island, you've activated your markings." Tengen looked at Yayoi and told her what Sabito couldn't say.

"Ok??"

"How come I didn't know?"

"How come I'm the last one to know about something like this?!"

Chapter 104 I've had enough of you fragile-hearted people! It's me who's going to die, okay?!

After hearing Sabito say that he would listen to Tengen, Giyu was about to speak when Yayoi urgently stopped him.

"Forget it, don't start reminiscing about that mission from six months ago. It's a bit hard to listen to you talk."

"Oh."

Giyuu's expression remained unchanged. Sabito, who was still feeling sad, noticed Giyuu's obviously disappointed look, raised his hand and patted Giyuu's back, comforting him:

"Yayoi doesn't have many years left to live, so let's not bother with her."

"If I hadn't known you for so many years, I would have really thought you were my enemy."

"Your words are really awful."

Yayoi stopped pretending to be sickly and weak, and spat directly at Sabito.

"Kuang Jin, is there anything they missed in what they were saying?" Yayoi asked, looking at Kuang Jin who seemed somewhat uneasy.

"It should be gone."

Everything that needed to be explained has been explained.

The early meeting of the Pillars mainly discussed information about Upper Moon Two and the matter of the Demon Slayer Mark.

If what you say is true, my lord, Yayoi, as the first person to awaken her Demon Slayer Mark, will influence those around her to awaken theirs as well.

Thinking about improving his physical fitness and honing his swordsmanship as soon as possible, and striving to awaken his Demon Slayer Mark under Yayoi's influence, so as to contribute more to the Demon Slayer Corps, Kuang Jin felt less sad.

Yayoi threw off the covers and started to get off the bed, stretching and complaining as she did so.

"How could you hold a meeting behind my back in just a few hours?"

Butterfly Shinobu appeared at the doorway carrying a plate. "You've been asleep for two whole days. No matter how I call you, you won't wake up. If it weren't for the fact that you're still breathing..."

"Stop, stop, stop! Don't say anything unlucky."

It would have been better if Shinobu hadn't mentioned it, as Yayoi hadn't felt hungry. But when she told Shinobu that she had slept for two days, Yayoi immediately felt dizzy.

Oh no, I almost starved to death.

He picked up the bowl of noodle soup from the tray in front of Shinobu Kocho and took a couple of sips of the soup before his stomach felt a little better.

"So you're all standing here hoping to see when I'll die?"

“No,” Qian Tu explained quickly, “We just finished a meeting and thought we’d drop by to see you.”

"Yayoi, aren't you sad?"

"Why should I be sad?" Yayoi slurped her noodles without looking up.

"I'm sleeping well, eating well, and in an incredibly good mood, okay?"

"But you..."

Annoyed by Sabito's nagging, Yayoi swallowed the last bite of noodles and put the bowl and chopsticks back on the tray on the table.

"Why have you become so fussy and indecisive? Where is your manly demeanor that you always talk about?"

"I just won't live past twenty-five, it's not like I'm going to die any second from now."

"Besides, aren't you being a bit too optimistic?"

"what?"

Not only Sabito, but also Tengen and Gyomei were stunned by Yayoi's completely illogical words.

Only Giyuu was still immersed in his little feelings that Yayoi disliked him.

"Go back and read more books, children."

Still feeling a bit cold, Yayoi bypassed the group and pulled a haori (traditional Japanese clothing) from the wardrobe behind Giyuu and put it on.

It's a size too small, but I can still wear it.

"The reason we haven't lost any personnel in the past few years is that we haven't encountered any major winds."

Leaning against the wardrobe to ease her dizziness, Yayoi continued, "If you really don't know how serious the loss of Pillar-level swordsmen is, go ask the Lord, or go to the Rengoku Mansion and ask Rengoku, who has left the team. They are more familiar with the number."

"There probably aren't many Pillar-level swordsmen who have lived past twenty-five in all these decades, right?"

Yayoi patted Kurokin on the shoulder, "Where's Sanemi?"

"He seems to be over at the flower stand now. After we came to the Butterfly House together, he didn't come in with us."

Well, after appeasing this group of grown men, I still have to appease my little darling husband.

These days are getting more and more hopeless.

"Oh, then I'll go check on him." Yayoi walked out the door without looking back.

I stopped at the door.

"Instead of worrying about this and that here, it's better to save some time to go back and think about how to be even more capable, so I can live a couple more years."

"Don't let me, the one with the Demon Slayer Mark, die before you do, and then you'll all be killed by the Upper Moons."

The words were harsh, extremely harsh, and very unpleasant.

The people in the room, however, did not sense any malice in Yayoi's words.

"So... what do we do now? It seems like Sangdao doesn't need our comfort." Tianyuan scratched his head and asked the others.

“Namo…” Xingming pondered for a moment, “Then let’s go back first. Sangdao and Butterfly brought back information about the Upper Moon demon at such a heavy price. When we encounter Upper Moon Two again, we can’t be completely unable to defeat it, just like Sangdao said.”

"Yes, I understand, Senior Himejima."

As the junior with the least seniority present, Kuang Jin had always respected this powerful Rock Pillar. Seeing that Xingming had spoken, Kuang Jin followed Xingming and left the Butterfly Mansion.

Sanemi needs to figure things out for himself. Right now, he probably wants to see Yayoi more, so I shouldn't disturb them.

Kuang Jin thought to himself.

"Sabito, shall we head back too?" Giyuu nudged Sabito's shoulder and asked.

"Yes, let's spend more time training."

"I can't die before Yayoi."

Sabito pursed his lips, swallowed his emotions, and left with Giyu.

Within minutes, everyone in the room had left. Tengen couldn't leave Yayoi's room alone any longer, so he had to leave with a somewhat gloomy expression.

Tsk, should we tell Mu Xu and the others about this?

As Tengen walked towards the camp with a troubled expression, Yayoi found Sanemi sitting motionless on the steps, staring at the flower stand.

"What's wrong again? You don't look happy."

Yayoi asked knowingly.

Upon hearing Yayoi's voice, Sanemi seemed to suddenly come back to his senses, focusing his gaze on Yayoi sitting beside him.
