Go and be the bait!

While his journey was a little arduous, Isao and the three widows were able to arrive at their destination. 

"Entertainment district?" 

"Yes." Hinatsuru nodded. "It's paradise for a man." 

"Have you been there before, Iinuma-sama?" Suma asked curiously. 

"Suma!" Makio slapped Suma's head again due to this bitch's rude question. 

"No, I've never been there before," Isao said calmly. While he knew this place, he had never gone there since he had Kagaya's wife by his side. Compared to those whores who gave their bodies to different men every night, wasn't it better to be with Amane, who only gave her body to Kagaya?

"Oh?" 3x

The three were surprised since shouldn't a man be interested in that kind of place?

"Why?" Even Makio started to get curious. 

"Why?" Isao looked at the three strangely, but he could see that they were genuinely curious. "I don't want to get sick." 

"Ah." 3x

The three nodded in understanding at his simple answer. 

Still, Isao had to say that even if this era lacked modern medicine that could cure almost anything, it was also enviable because there weren't many diseases in this era. 

"That's great! You shouldn't visit that place!" Suma nodded, agreed much with Isao's approach, then said, "If you need help, please tell me!" 

"Suma!" Makio strangled this stupid woman with all of her might. 

"Stop! Stop! Stop!" 

Yet, how could Makio not be? 

After all, their husband had just passed away. Even though Makio had prepared herself in case Isao asked something more so he could help them, he was such a sincere and devoted man to his woman, so she felt quite ashamed of her thoughts. 

Yet, on their trip to the entertainment district to fight a demon, Makio could tell that she was attractive in his eyes. Even if he tried to be serious, she could tell that he was looking at her as a woman, but their situation made it impossible for them to be together. 

Well, she was a widow, so there was no problem, but was it okay for her to jump into Isao right after the death of her husband? 

While she didn't have any resistance and even felt eager to do such an immoral act, she didn't think that this was appropriate. 

At least, Suma was definitely too much! 

"I am sorry for her again..." Hinatsuru looked at Suma helplessly. While she also had the same idea, this wasn't something that could be said openly. What if Isao thought of them as a slut?

"Tell me more about the demons," Isao said, pretending he hadn't heard anything while rolling his eyes, wondering if the three had forgotten what they had done to him even though he sincerely wished to help them.

Yet, Hinatsuru wasn't sure why she was sad, but she knew that this also wasn't the time to dwell on this ridiculous thought where she used her widow body to seduce this young man. 

"Yes." 

Still, while the fact didn't change that she tried to seduce him, she had to change his impression of them, and more importantly, they had to fight this demon first. 

Under the shade of the tree, their car was quite low-key, but in an era when cars were so rare, and only a few wealthy people owned them, it was impossible for people to ignore them, and many often stopped and glanced at it curiously. 

However, as the windows were dark, no one could see inside, and the four of them could talk freely about the demons with ease. 

Well, it was a little hot, so they walked out of the car and talked in a quiet place on the side. 

The distance where they stood was quite far, about a mile away, but even so, Isao could clearly see what was happening in the entertainment district, even if everything was surrounded by darkness. 

At this moment, Isao used the eyes of an owl, a nocturnal bird that was capable of seeing so far away with limited light. 

If a human used the eyes of an owl, they could mouse by the light of a match a mile away.

Moreover, his eyes also worked like a chameleon, which gave him 90 degrees vertically and 180 degrees horizontally for a total field of vision of 342 degrees, nearly a full 360 degrees, giving him a broad field of vision. 

Still, he had to say that while those who stayed in the entertainment district appeared beautiful and favored by many, everything was built from the ugliness, especially when those beautiful women came to this place after being sold by their parents. 

"Didn't you say some of the buildings were ruined by the fight of that demon and your husband? But... it seemed that nothing changed much." 

While Isao wanted to focus on the demon, he had to say that he felt speechless when there were so many people in the entertainment district, even if the fights between Hashira and the demon just happened lately. 

"This place is always like this after all..." Hinatsuru also felt helpless, but everyone needed money, and it was impossible to close this place. Moreover, all men need the comfort of a woman, especially after long, hard work during the day. 

"So, it's your lower body first than life, huh?" 

Isao thought that the man in this era was full of guts! 

"...." 3x

"Anyway, about those demons. There are only two of them, right?" 

"Yes." 

"There are two of them. One is a female, and the other is a male. The two of them should be siblings. A little sister and an older brother." 

"About their abilities, you don't make a mistake, right?" 

"Yes." Hinatsuru, who was the most capable among the three, nodded at Isao's question. "The female seems to have the ability to create and control her obi (Japanese sash worn with both traditional Japanese clothing and uniforms for Japanese martial arts styles)." 

"Obi, huh?" 

It seemed to be quite an interesting ability to control clothing. 

Isao felt like he could have a lot of fun with such an ability. 

"But the male is the stronger one." Hinatsuru was filled with hatred when she thought about the male demon, as this demon was the one who killed her husband. 

Makio and Suma were the same. 

The three knew that these kinds of consequences were inevitable since, as the Demon Slayer Corps, they had always been in danger. If it had been before, they might have done something stupid, such as throwing themselves into the demon and trying to get themselves killed like their husband, but this time, they had Isao, and they had a chance to avenge themselves. 

Naturally, they were willing to do everything to help him. 

"What is his ability?" 

"Blood manipulation." 

"Blood?" Isao raised his brows, feeling this ability was quite tricky. "Can he control someone's blood and control the other like a doll? Or make someone's blood explode from inside, killing anyone with ease?" 

"No, no!" Makio quickly refuted such an outrageous ability. 

"Yeah, he could only attack others with his blood and shaped it into sickles!" Suma also added. 

"Are you sure?" Isao asked while looking at Hinatsuru since this woman was the most reliable. 

Hiratsuka fell in silence for a while, then said, "I can't say it for sure, but when this demon fought our husband, he had only used his blood to shape it into barrages of sickles, and it seemed that his blood was also poisonous." 

Isao fell in silence and quickly understood who the two demons were that fought their husband. 

'Well, if it's them, then it isn't a problem.' 

As for the ability to control blood, Isao had to admit that it was quite powerful; with this demon's prideful nature, would this person have thought of the possibility of controlling the blood of others? 

"I understand." Isao nodded. "But will they still be here?" 

"Yes." 3x

There was no doubt that the two demons were in the entertainment district, especially when those demons seemed to have some kind of obsession with this place. 

"If you want to, we can become bait to get them out," Suma unexpectedly said something outrageous. 

Isao looked at Suma, the crybaby and the one who said inexplicable things from time to time. 

"Suma!" This time, Makio didn't slap Suma's head, only looking at her fellow wife in surprise since she didn't expect this crybaby to say such a bold thing. 

"Are you serious?" Hinatsuru reacted similarly. 

"I am." Suma nodded firmly, but her expression said otherwise. She was about to cry, and her expression clearly said that she was frightened, but even so, she nodded. "W-We have asked for his help, and it would be too shameful if we didn't bet our lives with him. I have decided to give my everything in this battle... so please don't stop me..." 

Even if she was stupid and often did something strange that caused her mistakes, her feelings that wished to avenge her dead husband were real. 

For that, even if she used her life, she didn't mind! 

Well, she would be lying if she didn't feel scared, though. 

Hinatsuru and Makio were shocked by their fellow wives' determination, especially this crybaby one, yet weren't they also thought the same?

The two showed a bitter, helpless smile. 

However, Isao was still calm. "Do they know your appearance?" 

"Well..." 3x

Hinatsuru nodded. "They should remember us. When... our husband told us to run away, they should have seen our faces." 

When Tengen told them to run away to ask for help, those two demons should have seen their faces.

However, why did Isao ask them this question? 

"Is that so?" Isao thought for a while, then nodded. "Then, Suma, you go. Be the bait." 

"....." 

Suma fell in silence for a while, feeling confused, and then looked at Isao in shock. "Eh? Really? Am I going to be the bait? Are you serious? Wait! Wait! I am not ready! I don't want to die yet! Huwaa!" 

At that moment, Suma's cry was so loud that it reached the entertainment district.

By the way, what do you think of Mushoku Tensei?

While I have read it in the past, I haven't read it to the end. Frankly, will Hitogami notice him when he enters the world? 

Or rather, is Hitogami powerful? 

It's fine if you give me a spoiler, though.
