Ultimate Being from the Tokonosu City

Chapter 51: Kagaya will do everything!

After hearing Isao's words, Shinobu was annoyed by him since it was like he had ordered her, but she was also helpless since she knew he wasn't at fault. The fault was all the Hashira, who was beaten since they tried to provoke him. Moreover, while she was a Demon Slayer, she was also a doctor, so it was also her duty to tend to those who were wounded so she could only move on and do what she was told. 

At the same time, while Shinobu might not say anything since she was afraid to make him proud, she was quite happy when she saw he had won, thinking that he was amazing. 

Yes, while it might not appear that she could accept him outwardly, she had thought of him as her brother-in-law inwardly, especially when she saw what Isao and her older sister did in the room. Moreover, the one who seduced him was her big sister, so what could she do? 

As the little sister, Shinobu had always been pushed around by her older sister, and she could do nothing, especially when her older sister made up her decision. 

Yet, it was impossible for her to accept Isao so easily, at least outwardly. 

Even so, it didn't stop her from thinking that Isao was amazingly strong. 

Looking at her small and weak body, Shinobu wondered whether she could ask him to train her. 

"You don't seem to blame me for their injuries." 

Yet, watching Kanae and Shinobu seem to instruct those around them to bring all the Hashira to the room without much expression, Isao felt strange since he felt that they were too calm, even if the injuries of the Hashira were kind of heavy. 

"This kind of injury is nothing. You don't have to worry," Kanae said with a gentle smile. 

Shinobu looked at Kanae speechlessly, thinking that Kanae was partial to Isao. Even though he had beaten everyone, Kanae told him that everything was okay, but she also didn't correct Kanae's words since Kanae was correct. 

"Really?" 

"Some of them even have their entrails come out before."

"....." 

However, after hearing their story, the atmosphere became heavy.

If there was something worse than their injuries, it would be death, and this conversation reminded them of the death of the Demon Slayer, who came to their place from time to time.

"But this might be good." Kanae had a gentle expression on her face. "A short pain is a better lesson than anything." 

Hashira's position might be good, and many were eager to improve their skills because of the benefits that came from this position, yet for those who had stayed on top, this also made them arrogant and slackened their training. 

Kanae also knew that, especially since she was almost dead before. However, all of this would have nothing to do with her since she had decided to retire to follow Isao. 

Yet, when she looked at her little sister, she became worried, and as Isao had said before, it was a little hard for her to leave her little sister and those whom she had picked and taken care of in this Butterly Manor. 

As for those Demon Slayers?

If they were not determined to give their lives to fight demons, they might as well stop this profession, considering how dangerous it was. 

So even if some of those Hashira had a broken nose and bones, it was completely fine. 

At the same time, Isao also understood why many of the Demon Slayers died young. While being killed by the demon was one reason, the wounds, injuries, and ailments that came from this profession drained their vitality during their youth, so when they reached the age of 30, they were as good as gone. 

Moreover, the medicine wasn't so developed, and penicillin, the miracle medicine, had yet to be created. 

Even worse, the breathing style was a technique that drained someone's vitality in exchange for power. 

If Isao hadn't absorbed Doma's DNA, he would have been as good as gone. 

Still, with this, Isao didn't have to worry about the Demon Slayer Corps, especially when he had absorbed all the DNA of that Hashira. While this organization hadn't lost its value to him, its value wasn't so important in his eyes. 

Yes, there might be some styles that he hadn't learned, and there might be some talents or knowledge that he hadn't gotten, but it was nothing, especially with how he had grown. 

Instead, he might as well have gone to Tokyo to set up his foundation. Frankly, he knew that this was dangerous, especially when there was an earthquake in 1923, but the money was in Tokyo, and if he wanted to become rich, he had to go there.

Still, this was a different world, so such a disaster might not appear, right?

However, when he was about to go—

"Oyakata-sama!" 

Everyone quickly stopped when they were down and bowed their heads when Kagaya appeared, walking toward them with the support of his wife, Amane. 

"Please stand up." Kagaya looked at them softly. "You are all busy. There is no need to be distracted by me." 

"Oyataka-sama..." 

They thought that Kagaya was kind and selfless since he prioritized his followers over himself. 

Watching as everyone quickly helped each other bring all Hashira to the room while also cleaning up the mess from the fight, Kagaya slowly walked toward Isao and apologized, "I am sorry for what they have done, Iinama-kun. I know that they are rude for trying to provoke you, but they are not bad people. Let me apologize in their place." 

If it was the usual plot, Isao would accept Kagaya's apology, especially when Kagaya had bowed so low. 

Yet—

"I will go first, Kanae." 

Isao simply ignored Kagaya and decided to leave directly. 

Kanae felt awkward since Kagaya had helped her so much, but she loved Isao, so standing between the two and watching how Isao clearly ignored Kagaya made her so awkward that she didn't know what to do. Yet, at the same time, it was impossible for her to have the same respect she had toward Kagaya, especially when she had noticed that Kagaya had been watching the fight between Isao and Hashira from the beginning. 

In other words, their fight was under the permission of Kagaya!

Knowing all of that, how could she feel the same reverence she had toward this leader of the Demon Slayer Corps?

So, even if Isao ignored Kagaya, Kanae didn't intend to do anything and just pretended to be confused and awkward, so she wouldn't be blamed. 

Yes, Kanae might be all smiles, and she might appear like an airhead due of her appearance, but she wasn't stupid! 

Isao also knew this, and that was probably one of the reasons why he didn't mind impregnating her. 

"It's fine, Kanae. It's normal for him to be angry since they all have provoked him. While I try to lessen their actions and apologize, it is normal for one not to accept my apology after being provoked like that." 

Isao only rolled his eyes when he heard Kagaya's words. If he was weak, then who would be sleeping in the room now?

Still, Kagaya might be smart, good with words, and able to handle others' hearts, but if Isao ignored him, what could he do? 

Nothing. 

If Isao wished to talk, then Kagaya might be able to do something, but if Isao didn't want to talk, then there was nothing that Kagaya could do. 

With this, Kagaya knew that no matter what he said, he couldn't retain Isao, especially when he was ignored. While there might be many Demon Slayers around, it was pointless to think that they could be used to stop them. Moreover, he didn't want their relationship to be broken without any possibilities for them to mend. 

"I know that no matter what I have said might seem like an excuse, so..." Kagaya looked at Amane and said, "Amane, help me bring that." 

"Yes."

Leaving Kagaya, who stood with the support of others, Amane went to the room and then came back with a suitcase. 

"This is my thanks, but if you feel uncomfortable accepting it, you can think of it as a bounty after you have defeated the Upper-Rank Second Doma." 

When the suitcase was opened, it was filled with money. 

A lot of money. 

This time, Isao turned since he didn't plan to break up with Kagaya. Even if the value of the Demon Slayer Corps had almost been squeezed dry by him, there was still value within this organization. 

Moreover, he was a good person, and he still planned to help others fight demons, especially when he wanted to devour demons to gain their DNA. 

"Then, I will accept it." 

Nevertheless, the reason why he started to talk to Kagaya again wasn't because of the money. Instead, he knew that if he just left, many would die, so he maintained the possibility of them working together since he wished to help people. 

It definitely had nothing to do with the fact that he wanted the money, okay? 

Watching how relaxed Isao took the money, Kagaya knew that there was still room to fix their relationship, and he knew how to handle Isao. "If you join the Demon Slayer, I can give you more." 

However, Isao left directly. "I will leave first, Kanae." 

Kanae looked helpless, but she bowed his head to Kagaya and said, "I will send him off first, Oyataka-sama." 

"Wa-Wait a moment!" Kagaya quickly reacted and tried to stop them. "Bring my wife with you! I have many connections in Tokyo, and you can ask them for my wife's support." 

Yes, even if it was shameless, Kagaya didn't care since as long as there was a chance to defeat a demon, he would do anything! 

So, even if he begged, kowtowed, and did any other methods, he was going to use his everything to invite Isao to the Demon Slayer Corps! 

Unfortunately, Kagaya knew that even if he begged or kowtowed, Isao would ignore him, so he could only slowly invite Isao with the help of his wife since, with his body and the duty he had as the leader of the Demon Slayer Corps, it was impossible for him to leave and expose himself to danger. 

Not until he saw a chance to completely erase Muzan from this world. 

"..." 

Isao was speechless, and he even sighed helplessly at how persistent Kagaya was, but as he had planned to become a good guy and still wanted to have a connection with the Demon Slayer Corps, he decided to take Kagaya's offer. 

So not only did Isao receive money from Kagaya, but he also received Kagaya's wife. 

Still, with all of that, Isao started his journey to Tokyo.
