Rimuru's Journey In Kny
26. Man or Devil

A bright morning with birds chirping sounds like music on a cruise ship, sounds old-fashioned but has its own characteristics.

The sun peeking from the clouds went into the open window slit, a beautiful face that was sound asleep writhing uncomfortably and opened its eyes.

Unlike most people who had to collect their lives first, he immediately sat down and looked at the beautiful sky that morning. A charming smile engraved on her pink lips colored cherry blossoms.

White skin, silvery hair that is rarely owned by others, golden eyes add an infinite value, making her like a goddess of immortality from a distance that descends against boredom.

Taking her blue bathrobe, she entered the bathroom and started dressing up. Red lipstick, and thin powder make it a number 1 beauty matchless.

He shifted the wooden door, slowly stepping out towards the promised meeting place. Armed with a kimono outfit with a short skirt in white and black then a golden hair stick in the shape of a phoenix with a red ruby in the middle and a golden tassel with a red jewel tip adorned his head, all the men there could only hold a mouthful of saliva.

4 men from a distance who looked at Rimuru gave a dark expression.

"How dare they look at Rimuru/San/Sama/Sensei like that!! "

With a furious heart, they looked at this bunch of living trash deathly. Rimuru who saw him just chuckled softly, not expecting that they would be this possessive.

Rimuru stepped forward at the tea crossroads, her high heels knocking on the ground and making a noise.

"Am I really pretty, Ciel?? "

[You are very beautiful master]

"Oh? Then will I get a husband? "

[Omong empty! ]

"Hahaha kidding"

Rimuru walked over, her smile widened and revealed a row of white teeth, her eyes narrowed seductively, unable to help it anymore the men immediately looked for some women in the brothel to play with their own fantasies.

Rimuru who felt this movement smiled even wider, she would finally be full of all these negative emotions, after all there were her subordinates who had to be fed as well.

The emergence of Rimuru makes sensation and excitement, the article to meet oiran highly ranked is not easy, in order to meet them the visitors must often come to the localization district as if competing to meet the oiran.

"Have you guys ordered anything? "

Rimuru asked and smiled gently, she waved her hand to call the maid, she sat right next to Tanjiro and Zenitsu.

"We just arrived Rimuru-sama"

Diablo looked unsightly at the trembling Zenitsu beside Rimuru, his hands sweating until the glass he was carrying almost slipped down.

Seeing Diablo's terrifying gaze, Zenitsu immediately threw a face away, not wanting the horrifying gaze to kill him.

"Then we start the discussion"

Rimuru pointed at the wooden ceiling, and within a second the sound of a finger snap rang out.

The white shield formed from the top to the bottom of the chair, Tanjiro and his friends looked at this phenomenon in surprise, while Uzui just sipped his tea like nothing had happened.

"Why do you see it like that? Surprised? Huh! That is the ability of our teacher!! "

Saying that inwardly, Uzui smiled proudly, puffing his chest and head full of arrogance.

"Today I gathered you because I got the information"

"What information is sensei? "

"With my breathing technique, a few days ago I made a clay mouse to infiltrate the house in this district. The thing I found was quite surprising, you guys will be facing a top-tier demon in this place"

"What?! "

The four of them turned impatient, there was anxiety, fear and worry on their faces, except for Inousuke who was eager to make a match with a demon stronger than him.

"And also some of my mole rats told me that your wife Suma 'lost her footing', this was reinforced by a note written by her herself on her bedroom desk, and then your wife Makio was being held captive by the devil in her room, the demon was suspicious because he kept sending letters to you, and next I managed to save Zenitsu's life from the demon, fortunately only fainted, if she died somehow that would happen"

Uzui was silent, she lowered her head deeper and deeper, no one knew the look on her face, but it could be seen that she was anxious and upset.

"Well, I'm talking to you, to save your wife you're making the wrong move, you're almost taking someone's life, no! In these past few days despite not being fully connected to you there have been many lives of people who have died. You've been missteps, and you're still not aware, did I teach you that? I taught you combat strategies because of your skills, but what are you doing.. "

Rimuru took a deep breath and took it out, he took his tea glass and sipped his tea impatiently, without continuing Uzui already knew what Rimuru wanted to talk about.

"It's my fault, you three.. "

Uzui looked at Tanjiro and the comrades with regretful faces, he tried to adjust his mood and continued his words.

"The three of you can get out of here, go as far as possible, I honestly felt an unpleasant air on the second day after here, but I can't detect for sure, since dangerous things have already happened, I can only tell you to stay away from here other than that your ranks are very low for this 'killing each other' fight"

"No, Uzui-san!.. "

Uzui suddenly stood up, and walked away from the barrier, as she almost stepped out of the door, she stopped her footsteps and turned her head.

"Don't be ashamed, winners survive, don't ruin this opportunity"

Tanjiro wants to catch up with Uzui, but he undoes his intentions and looks at Rimuru, his attempts to persuade Uzui will be futile, but Rimuru is different.

He shifted to Rimuru's place, to speak, but before the mouth was open, Rimuru had interrupted.

"Don't stop him"

Tanjiro was stunned on the spot, then asked anxiously.

"Why? "

"It's nothing, just to mature himself, besides he needs a calm state to think clearly, if you're there will it help? "

Tanjiro was silent, and could only see his empty glass. Rimuru who saw this moved, she extended her hand and held Tanjiro's hand.

Tanjiro was startled for a moment, then saw Rimuru spontaneously. Right now what Tanjiro saw was the sunlight shining down on that soft and white face, Rimuru smiled, sakura lips and the original red hue on her cheeks made her very charming.

Tanjiro could not hold his heartbeat so he threw his face to the side, afraid that his red face was seen by Rimuru.

"No need to worry, he is my disciple and I know all the qualities of my disciple, he will not do anything reckless, unless he is ready to die on my sword"

"Yes.. "

Tanjiro replied faintly, still hiding his red face.

Inousuke who had long been curious how to make the shield could not hold it anymore, he stood up and kicked the table hard, then pointed at Rimuru with his index finger.

"Damn! How do you make it?! That's impressive! Teach me! "

"Huh? "

Rimuru did not understand and tilted her head in confusion.

"He told me how you made a shield with just a snap of a finger"

Veldora, who still had the manga in her left hand and warm tea in her right hand, translated it.

"When did you understand the language? "

Veldora raised her eyebrows, telepathically with Rimuru.

"I can of course dragon"

Rimuru sighed and replied

"Whatever"

"So how did you do it?! "

Inousuke asked enthusiastically, from his two nostrils emitting smoke like a bull.

"Calm down and sit properly. I can make it because of my breathing technique"

"Is that his trademark? "

Zenitsu began to be curious.

"That's right. Speaking of breath, do any of you smell foul? "

Those who were there inhaled the air strongly, and were plucked then their eyes widened in disbelief.

"This.. This smell.. "

Zenitsu trembled violently, holding his yellow katana strong, Tanjiro and Inousuke alert. Rimuru furrowed her brows in confusion.

When did they get to stand under the sun?

Rimuru looked at Veldora, while Veldora looked out the window. His golden eyes shone, displaying the pointy-eyed pupils belonging to the dragon clan.

Diablo played with his gloves, but whoever had good eyesight, his hands trembled with joy. Smiling revealed a row of white teeth and some pointed teeth.

Rimuru averted her eyes, that's what happened let it happen.

"Muzan-sama!! "

A half-naked woman rushed into a house. He shifted the wooden door and saw a man sitting comfortably on the wooden table.

His right hand holds a transparent glass, inside there is a thick red liquid at once fishy. He smiled when he saw the woman.

"During the time of not meeting, how are you? "

He stood up from the table, biting his finger and dark-colored blood dripped into the red liquid.

Then he walked up to the woman, handed the glass to the woman.

"Take it and drink it"

The woman did not go against the order, she held her glass and gulped it in one gulp. A few seconds later, the sound of the glass breaking was so terrifying followed by a scream of pain.

The man, Muzan, just laughed out loud. His red eyes were like a cat in the middle of the night, his pointy teeth were seen with an expanding smile.

"Feet"

The woman called Daki looked up while strangling her own throat. His body shook as a result of enduring the pain. Muzan reached out his hand and stroked Daki's cheek, strangely Daki became calm after being touched by Muzan.

"I have high hopes for you. You're prettier than anyone. You are strong enough to defeat 7 pillars. You're gonna be more.. Be stronger... More violent. You're a special demon"

Amidst the calm Daki looked at Muzan, a swig of biwa was heard and Muzan's body disappeared instantly.

Daki smiled then laughed, no matter what happened he had to do his job well.

Black-haired women are carried with beautiful and striking trinkets. The servants ran here and there to dress the woman.

This person who was being served said that if she wanted something and wanted to go alone, this was her first time going so she dressed up very pretty to attract attention.

"This is a trap for you, be prepared"

In the midst of his busyness he spoke faintly, then smiled widely while tilting his head, staring out the window.

.

.

Rimuru was still inside the tea shop, she thought very hard while Tanjiro and his comrades began to worry about the level of a god. Diablo occasionally laughed, and Veldora occasionally looked at the window, making the atmosphere strange and awkward.

Amidst this tense atmosphere, a smooth computer-like voice flowed into Rimuru's brain.

[Master's Trap]

"I know"

[What's your next plan? ]

"Analyze everything and give it to me as soon as you get it understood? "

[Okay Master]

Rimuru looked at Tanjiro next to him, long enough for Tanjiro to turn to look at Rimuru.

"Tanjiro-san, what's your response to this? "

"It's a danger, Rimuru-san if that demon can stand in the sun then it's over! "

"You just believe? "

"What does that mean, Tempest-san? "

Zenitsu interrupted them, furrowing her brows in confusion.

"You can hear a better sound, of course you'll understand"

Tanjiro turned his head to look at Zenitsu, while Zenitsu just kept silent and bit her index finger like she was thinking of something.

"I hear the breath of the devil, but why falter? Could it.. "

Zenitsu's eyes widened in disbelief, she froze on the spot and did not know where to put her hand.

Tanjiro feels something is wrong, so he relies on his olfactory abilities and discovers the awkwardness.

"It... "

Rimuru smiled with their intelligent thoughts, and nodded her head gently.

"It's a trap, an experiment to stand under the sun isn't perfect yet but he's luring us out, he's letting out his stench so whoever the demon hunters come to him and get in his trap"

"Then Uzui-san... What about her? "

"No need to worry, his five senses are greater than yours, this obvious awkwardness, he found it first"

"What should we do now? What about the plan? "

"Zenitsu"

Zenitsu turned towards Rimuru.

"You're bego"

"Huh?! "

"But, you're so smart in this critical state, I'm giving up a little plan to turn his attention to you"

"What do you mean?! "

Zenitsu shouted in horror, she stood up and kicked the table quite loudly.

"How dare you be a boy"

Diablo who was sitting next to Veldora and right in front of Zenitsu looked at her, his face black and his hands clenched. Zenitsu shrunk her neck and sat back down sadly.

"This Zenitsu is a state of life and death, I leave this to you, because I believe you can definitely"

Zenitsu lowered her head and held her katana stronger and stronger, until her fingers were as white as corpses.

"Understand me, I'll do it! "

Zenitsu shouted, an excited shout, Tanjiro smiled looking at him, and Inousuke patted Zenitsu's shoulders until it rang.

"today... "

The three of them turned to look at Rimuru who was holding a teacup.

"... It will be a new story in a new leaf, the triumph of mankind"

The three people nodded and held his katana firmly. Sure is! Man must win! Even if they had to sacrifice their lives, they would win!

On one side of the fire is the battle for the sake of man and on one side the spirit to conquer the world. Who among them will win in the end?

Is human?

Or the devil again?

Tonight everything will be at stake in this district.
