Chapter 15

Nezuko and Tanjiro returned to the upon stand they were originally at,
"Seriously!! What I wanted to say was this! It's not about the money. If you don't eat the udon I made, I'll never forgive you!" The udon guy then went up to Tanjiro who was sitting on the bench and pointed at him,
"Hold the chopsticks! What is with this bamboo? Take out that bamboo in your mouth first!!"

Tanjiro just looked at the man with dotted eyes, Nezuko went up to the man and grabbed the chopsticks in his hand and then started to eat the original bowl of noodles she ordered very quickly,
"I'm full now!! That was delicious!!" Nezuko stood up while saying that,
"As long as you get it! It's all good!"

✧*。–-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-–-—-—-–-—-–-✧*。

Nezuko and Tanjiro were walking hand in hand trying to find the demon or any leads to where the demon could be,
"Oh." Suddenly Tanjiro stopped walking and glared forward, Nezuko looked at what Tanjiro was glaring at. In front of them was the male demon with mint hair from earlier.

"Were you waiting for me? You didn't have to we would of been able to find you."
"How would you be able to find me, that place has a cloaking spell cast upon it to mask it from other people's sight. Compared to that..." he pointed at Tanjiro,
"Isn't that man a demon?" He then pointed at Nezuko,
"And you're not as pretty as her"

Nezuko just stared at him with dotted eyes unsure what do, but Tanjiro did not like the fact that this mint haired demon just insulted his sister. He pointed at Nezuko and started angrily gesturing and hmphing at the other demon. The mint haired demon turned around and started walking away,
"We're going." Tanjiro grabbed onto Nezuko and continued angrily gesturing while dragging Nezuko along with him. Nezuko was just standing there confused on what to do.

✧*。–-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-–-—-—-–-—-–-✧*。

They approached a big house with a weird sign on a piece of paper nailed to the house. Tanjiro was still dragging Nezuko along. The mint haired demon opened the door and entered the house,
"I'm back"
"Welcome back" the elegant lady dressed in purple replied, she was sitting next to the lady who was bitten who was currently unconscious and lying in a bed, the elegant lady had a doctors robe thing (I have no idea what there actually called).

Nezuko stepped into the house and finally said something,
"Ah, is she alright? I'm so sorry for leaving her with you." The lady put her hand on the unconscious lady's forehead to check her temperature and then replied to Nezukos question,
"She's fine now. Her husband... he's a different case. He's held in the basement right now."

"...Does it feel uncomfortable handling the wounds of a human?" The mint haired demon hit Nezuko in the chest after she finished asking her question, he then glared at her,
"As demons, we must endure the saliva brought on by the smell of flesh and blood. And you want us to treat humans as well?" The lady in purple stood up,
"Stop. Why must you resort to violence..."

"I haven't introduced myself yet. My name is Tamayo and this child is Yushiro, please try to get along with him." Nezuko just side glanced him,
'He's so hard go get along with... but I can't really do anything about that...' Nezuko sweat dropped at the murderous aura around Yushiro.

"And to answer your question, it does not feel particularly uncomfortable. I have an easier time with it compared to normal demons. I am, able to manipulate my body to my own whim, which made it possible for me to remove Kibutsuji's curse as well."
'Curse?'
"Mani... Manipulate your body?" Tamayo took off the robe thingy,
"It means that I can survive even without partaking human flesh. All I need is to drink a small amount of human blood, that's all".

They all entered a more spacious room. Nezuko put down Tanjiros box, and sat down on the floor opposite Tamayo, Tanjiro was just laying on the floor next to Nezuko,
"Drink blood? That's..."
"Maybe it might make you feel unhappy about it, we buy the blood that was originally given for transfusions from people who don't have a lot of money. Of course, all we really need is an amount of blood, that won't cause any disturbance to the person. Yushiro is even more impressive as he only needs a minuscule amount of blood to survive. I was the one that transformed him into a demon."

"EH? IT WAS YOU?! But... eh?" Nezuko freaked out a bit,
"Indeed. People other than Kibutsuji are unable to increase the amount of demons... that is factually correct. However after going through over 200 years, the only person that I was able to transform into a demon, was Yushiro"

"THE ONLY PERSON THAT YOU WERE ABLE TO TRANSFORM INTO A DEMON AFTER GOING THROUGH OVER 200 YEARS IS YUSHIRO?! TAMAYO-SAN HOW OLD ARE YOU?!" Yushiro hit Nezuko again and started lecturing her,
"DON'T JUST ASK A LADY FOR HER AGE LIKE THAT, YOU UNCOUTH RUFFIAN!!"

"Yushiro! I'm not going to forgive you if you hit her again!"
"Understand!!"
'Her face is still so pretty when she's angry...'
"I hope that you don't misunderstand... this one thing. I won't increase the number of demons. But to a person that is plagued by a disease without a cure and is about to die... this is the only option I can offer them. During that moment, I will definitely ask that person it they want to continue living as a demon, before continuing."
"Tamayo-San is there a way... to turn a demon back into a human?"

✧*。–-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-–-—-—-–-—-–-✧*。

Two demons walked through a more quieter bit of the city. The male had his hands out on front of him, in the palms of his hands was a set of eyes with arrows replacing the pupil. The female demon next to him was bouncing a temari ball,
"Can you see it?"
"I see it, I see footprints. In that case... they turned around there and circled a long way around, and then there were three people with a huge box."

The hand demon pointed in the direction that the demon slayer and two demons went in,
"How do we kill them ufufufu. I feel this power coursing through me, because we received the blood from the great one just now."
"Well, of course we are going to slaughter her as cruelly as possible."

✧*。–-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-–-—-—-–-—-–-✧*。

"A way of turning a demon... back into a human." Tamayo repeated Nezukos question,
"There is one" Nezuko leaned forward,
"!! Please tell me-" Yushiro threw Nezuko so she rolled onto her back,
"DON'T GET TOO CLOSE TO TAMAYO-SAMA!" Tamayo glared at Yushiro,
"...Yushiro..." Tamayo had a dark aura surrounding her.

"I only just threw her Tamayo-Sama, I didn't hit her"
"Don't do either of those things." Tamayo went back to being calm and elegant,
"No matter what kind of sickness it is... there will always be treatment methods and medicine for it. However, at my current stage, I can't turn a demon into a human. But I will do my best to research and develop a method of treatment."

"To make the medicine for treatments, there is a need to investigate a large amount of demon blood. I have to things I need to ask of you. First, I want to investigate your brother's blood. Second, do your best to gather as much blood from demons with kibutsuji's blood coursing through their veins. Tanjiro is currently at a very rare and very precarious stage of development, this change probably occurred during those two years that he has been asleep, which you told me about. Normally, if a demon hasn't eaten the flesh and blood of a human or beast for such a long time... there is no doubt that it would go berserk."

Tanjiro was now looking at Tamayo interested in what she was saying,
"However, the more surprising thing is that Tanjiro doesn't have any of those symptoms right now. This miracle might become the key to unlocking this mystery in the future." Nezuko looked down at Tanjiro for a moment and then returned her attention back to Tamayo.

"The second thing I want from you is a very cruel one. The demons with thick Kibutsuji blood coursing in them are... demons that have gained a massive amount of strength from Kibutsuji himself. It won't be an easy task robbing these demons of their blood, even so are you willing to accept my request?"

Nezuko looked down at Tanjiro again,
"...If there is no other option for me to take then I will go do it. If you're able to make a cure  then its not just Tanjiros life... but you'll be saving a lot of peoples lives, right?" Nezuko smiled at Tamayo. Tamayo returned the smile,
"Yes" Yushiro glared at Nezuko.
'!? Not good' he grabbed onto Tamayo and yelled,
"GET DOWN!"

A temari ball broke through the house and was now destroying everything trying to hit one of the four people inside of the room.
