Tanjiro followed Xander's gaze and saw Yushiro standing under a tree.
Xander and Tanjiro approached him along with Nezuko.
"I'm here," said Xander.
Yushiro looked at Xander with a displeased expression and reluctantly said, "miss Tamayo asked me to bring you there. If it weren't for her pleading, I wouldn't have come."
"Really? Then... please, lead the way!" Xander replied.
Hearing Xander's words, Yushiro's expression became even more disdainful: "Tsk, isn't that woman a demon? And an ugly one at that."
Xander's eyes gradually darkened, and he said, "Thinking about it, maybe Miss Tamayo should lead us there herself?"
Upon hearing this, Yushiro, already unhappy with Xander and the others for disrupting his life with Miss Tamayo, became even more displeased with Xander.
Tanjiro also realized that Yushiro was talking about Nezuko and immediately stood in front of Yushiro, pointing a finger at his face and loudly arguing with him, "Nezuko cannot be an ugly girl! Look at her appearance closely! Nezuko is a beautiful woman, renowned in the village!"
Tanjiro's sudden appearance interrupted the mutual animosity between Xander and Yushiro.
Yushiro snorted, "Hmph, let's go."
After that, Yushiro turned and led Xander and the others.
Tanjiro pulled Nezuko along and, following Yushiro, defended her, "No!" Of course, I'll go! But Nezuko is definitely not an ugly girl! Look at her in a brighter place! Let's go there!
Xander smiled and followed them.
They argued the entire way, and finally, Yushiro brought Xander and Tanjiro to the wall of a dead-end.
"Exactly! I understand! It's because of this veil! Maybe because of this veil! I will remove it so you can see Nezuko again!" After Tanjiro stopped to prove that Nezuko wasn't ugly, he kept talking to Yushiro.
Yushiro ignored Tanjiro and headed straight to the wall, then walked through it.
"Tanjiro, let's go inside," Xander had to interrupt Tanjiro.
Hearing this, Tanjiro looked at Xander: "Go inside? Where? Where that demon just was?"
At that moment, Yushiro's face suddenly appeared on the wall, and he said to Tanjiro with disgust: "Hurry up, while no one is watching!"
"Hey!"
Tanjiro was surprised to see Yushiro's face on the wall.
Xander entered without hesitation.
Seeing Xander pass through the wall, Tanjiro followed him without doubts.
Upon entering, Tanjiro saw a mansion with a few cherry trees planted nearby.
"There's a mansion behind the dead-end!" Tanjiro was a little surprised to see it.
"Hurry up!" Yushiro, already at the mansion's gate and ready to open the door, urged Xander and Tanjiro.
Xander and Tanjiro approached, and before opening the door, Yushiro added: "Listen carefully, you absolutely cannot be rude to miss Tamayo."
After that, Yushiro opened the door and led Xander, Tanjiro, and Nezuko inside.
"I'm back!" Yushiro said respectfully.
"Welcome!" Tamayo nodded to Yushiro.
"The items were just delivered to Miss Tamayo, thank you for your help," Xander said as he sat down across from Tamayo. "I don't know how things are there."
"The lady is fine, but her husband was tied up and locked in the dungeon," Tamayo said.
"That's good," Xander replied.
At this moment, Tamayo looked at Tanjiro and Nezuko following Xander and continued: "Let me introduce myself again. My name is Tamayo, and this guy is Yushiro. Please get along with him."
Tanjiro glanced at Yushiro, who was gritting his teeth next to him, and doubted Tamayo's words: "Is that..." It can't be, right?...
Xander just glanced at Yushiro, then smiled at Tamayo: "If you say so, I'll try my best."
Tamayo nodded and continued: "Well, although you've heard my name in the Ubuyashiki family, you should also know that my goal is the same as that of the Demon Slayer Corps."
"Of course," Xander said.
"I've made many changes to my body and rid myself of Muzan Kibutsuji's curse. We don't need to feed on humans to survive. We only need a small amount of human blood," Tamayo said.
Hearing that Tamayo still needed human blood, Tanjiro was still a bit worried: "Drinking blood? But that's…"
"Tanjiro, although Miss Tamayo and others need human blood, I don't think Miss Tamayo acquires it by killing people, right, Miss Tamayo?" Xander looked at Tamayo with kindness in his eyes. Hearing such gentle words, Tamayo slightly doubted Xander's identity. Tamayo looked into Xander's eyes and said: "Are you really just a regular member of the Demon Slayer Corps, and not a member of the Ubuyashiki family?"
