Chapter 331: The Demon Slayer Corps' Sleepless Night!

Chapter 331: The Demon Slayer Corps' Sleepless Night!

"I presume everyone has realized the question of where the Demon Slayer Corps will go from here."

Lucci consistently faced Kagaya Ubuyashiki and his two daughters. When the footage was playing earlier, the latter leaned close to the former's ear, explaining the Screen Feed content sentence by sentence.

"This problem is very easy to solve: join the World Government!"

"Then what is the World Government?"

Kagaya Ubuyashiki softly voiced the question on everyone present's minds.

"Regarding the World Government, because it is too great, it's difficult for me to explain it clearly in just a few words. Therefore, everyone needs to watch another piece of Footage. Please wait."

After speaking, Lucci raised his hand and pressed a Button on the Transponder Snail again. This time, although the Hashira present still felt it was miraculous, they didn't lose their composure as they did before.

Soon, this Transponder Snail projected two Beams of light again, converging in Mid-air to form a high-definition Virtual Screen. It opened with a floating white Emblem of a five-circle cross.

Then the camera began to zoom out, and everyone immediately realized this was actually a Flag swaying in the wind. Following that, the magnificent World Government Headquarters, like a towering mountain, came into view.

Kyojuro Rengoku and the others had never seen such tall artificial Buildings. Each of those five white cylindrical Buildings was over a thousand meters in Height!

Meanwhile, a Narration began.

"The World Government is the largest international Organization in the Sea Star World, ruling all Countries and Islands in the Sea Star World. Its Supreme Leader is the Supreme Executive Committee, also known as the Five Elders. Its direct subordinate organizations include the spy agency Cipher Pol, the Army Headquarters, the Marine Headquarters, Impel Down Great Prison, and so on."

To facilitate the personnel of the Otherworld Strategy Committee in introducing the World Government in Other Worlds, the Media Agency of the Propaganda Department specifically produced this promotional video.

Although the content involved wasn't extensive, it clearly explained what the World Government is, and what Otherworlds and Star Gates are.

Interspersed within were scenes depicting the Scale of the Marines' and Army's Troops, and battles between Sea Star Powerhouses that resembled Natural Disasters.

Without exception, these Screen Feeds directly shattered the worldviews of these Demon Slayer Corps Higher-ups.

Whether it was Stone Hashira Gyomei Himejima, Flame Hashira Kyojuro Rengoku, or Wind Hashira Sanemi Shinazugawa, every single one of them was dumbfounded, their eyes wide as could be, and their mouths unconsciously hanging open for a long time.

Even Hinaki and Nichika, who had been explaining the Screen Feed content to Father, were too shocked to speak.

[Ding-a-ling]

When the Transponder Snail retracted the finished Footage, a crisp Wind Chime Sound rang out from somewhere. A gentle breeze blew into the Hall, circled around, and woke everyone present.

Immediately after, Hinaki and Nichika quickly told Kagaya Ubuyashiki everything they had seen.

A moment later, this Master spoke.

"So you are people from Another World, coming to our World for... Conquest?"

His voice still sounded so relaxed and pleasant, but it carried a clear note of heaviness, because what he actually wanted to say was 'invasion'.

But the World Government's Power and Strength forced him to be careful with his words.

"It should be said that we are inviting this World to Affiliation with the World Government!"

Lucci specifically emphasized the words 'invite' and 'Affiliation', because it sounded more acceptable this way.

"Now that Muzan Kibutsuji has disappeared from this World, and the 'Twelve Kizuki' have been Elimination, aside from the Demon still at large, no new Demon will appear in the Future. So, will the Demon Slayer Corps disband now, taking your Breathing Styles and Swordsmanship with you, and vanish into the long river of History?"

"I presume none of you would want that. So, join us! The World Government will arrange you into the most suitable Departments based on your talents, allowing you to continue shining!"

After speaking, his Gaze focused on Kagaya Ubuyashiki's face, which was severely disfigured by his Disease.

"At the same time, our Medical Academy definitely has a way to treat your Disease, and even change your family's Fate of being frail, sickly, and not living past thirty!"

As soon as these words were spoken, both the two daughters by Kagaya Ubuyashiki's side and the Hashira all showed expressions of Excited surprise.

"That's impossible. Our Ubuyashiki Family was cursed by the Gods because of our Bloodline connection to Muzan Kibutsuji..."

Kagaya Ubuyashiki, however, was somewhat disbelieving.

"Nothing is impossible. Whether it's an Illness or a Curse, the World Government will have a way to solve it. If you ask why, it's because we are the World Government!"

Immediately after, Lucci looked at the blind Stone Hashira Gyomei Himejima and said, "Of course, your eyes are even easier for the Medical Academy."

This moved Gyomei Himejima.

Lucci then said to the other Hashira, "As Swordsmen, don't you want to come into contact with more advanced Swordsmanship and greater Strength?"

"To put it bluntly, with your current Strength, you are only at the level of ordinary Cipher Pol Members. And our numbers are close to ten thousand!"

Then, he unleashed a major weapon.

"Also, are you interested in the Scenery of Other Worlds? Are you interested in the Yokai and Powerhouses from Other Worlds?"

"This..."

As expected, warmongers like Kyojuro Rengoku, Tengen Uzui, Giyu Tomioka, and Sanemi Shinazugawa were deeply attracted.

Of course, there were also people like Mitsuri Kanroji and Shinobu Kocho who weren't very interested in increasing their Strength.

However, the former thought that perhaps in Other Worlds, she could find a stronger ideal husband than herself, while the latter thought about the various unseen Toxins, Medicinal Materials, and Medicine from Other Worlds.

It must be said, the Otherworld holds immense Temptation for most Human, because it represents all unknown possibilities!

"Then if we choose to join, will we have to go live in your World called Sea Star?" Kagaya Ubuyashiki asked, suppressing the Excitement in his Heart and maintaining a calm tone.

Why was he Excited?

Not for himself, but for the Future of the Ubuyashiki Family!

"Of course."

"The Medical Academy is in the Drum Kingdom in Sea Star. Someone will make proper Arrangement then."

After hearing Lucci's words, Kagaya Ubuyashiki nodded. After a moment of contemplation, he gave his answer.

"Excuse me, but because the Information Volume received is too large, we need some Time to calm down. Could you give us a few days to discuss?"

"Yes."

Lucci put on a thoughtful expression and then said, "How about three days?"

"Alright, then we will meet here again in three days!"

With that, the World Government completely laid out its cards to the Demon Slayer Corps. The sky gradually turned to Night, and Mumei, according to their previous Promise, arrived at Shinobu Kocho's home.

This place was also a Medical Treatment institution within the Demon Slayer Corps' logistics Organization, providing treatment and rehabilitation for injured Members. The nursing staff were mostly composed of Members without Swordsmanship talent, and it was called the 'Butterfly Mansion'.

Here, Mumei saw Tanjiro again, but the latter was lying unconscious on the Hospital Bed, while Nezuko Kamado sat quietly by the Hospital Bed, accompanying him.

Nezuko Kamado was like this: hiding in the Wooden Box during the day, and coming out at Night to sit by her Older Brother's side.

Because Nezuko Kamado still couldn't Speak, Mumei was also unable to Communication with her.

This made her feel quite regretful; it would be great if she could become friends with her.

"Ah~ So comfortable, it's been so long since I soaked in a Hot Spring~~"

At this moment, Mumei, Shinobu Kocho, Mitsuri Kanroji, and a quiet girl named Kanao Tsuyuri were gathered naked in a steaming Hot Spring.

This directly resulted in the Blue Light Heart on Mumei's chest being exposed before the three of them.

"Mumei, you..."

Mitsuri Kanroji covered her mouth in shock, unable to Speak. Shinobu Kocho and her adopted child, Kanao, were also full of surprise.

"Yes, I am a Kabaneri, a half-human, half-Kabaneri existence. Captain Guts and Sister Mie Huo, whom you saw before, are also Kabaneri. As for what a Kabaneri World is, that requires talking about my Ancestral World..."

Mumei leaned against the stone wall at the Edge of the Hot Spring, looking up at the starry river in the Night sky. While recalling her past experiences, she began telling her story.

Meanwhile, for the Demon Slayer Corps' Higher-ups, this Night was destined to be a Sleepless Night.
