"as a result, I've decided to let you go, because your existence has a serious negative effect on my vitality."

"Huh?... wait a minute. Weren't you talking about defeating Muzan?"

Kagaya smiled and ran a hand through his hair, pulling out a few white strands from his long hair.

"See this? Until yesterday I didn't have a single white hair in my head. You see, the stress of trying to keep you here is a greater threat to my life than Muzan's threat..."

Yuto continued to just stare at the man in front of him, not even knowing how to react to this situation. He acted as if he was the one who had been wronged.

Seeing this, kagaya felt the veins in his forehead start to twitch again and realized how right he was in his decision and continued to speak.

"Of course, knowing that you are someone like Muzan who can turn people into demons for blood, I can't just let you go. So I decided to turn you into a demon slayer."

Confused, Yuto wondered if he should be happy or unhappy. Finally, he realized that there was no reason for him to be unhappy, and he threw himself on top of Kagaya to thank him joyfully.

Her goal was to hug him and thank him. Because now he could see more of the sky than a small window could show. But at that moment something unexpected happened;

As Yuto's body floated in the air, moving towards Kagaya's chest, he suddenly heard the sound of the sea, which he hadn't heard in a long time. And immediately all the sounds he heard became deeper, like he was diving into the bottom of the water, and even when he tried to breathe, he could feel the fear of drowning, even though he didn't feel water entering his mouth.

*Combination Form: Blessed Rain After the Drought - Drop Ripple Thrust*

Hearing that word from a mature man's mouth, the sensations that made Yuto feel as if he had fallen into the water suddenly disappeared. At the same time, the momentum of his body in the air completely disappeared and he fell face down on the ground under the effect of gravity.

Yuto, not realizing what was happening, pulled himself back into a sitting position and turned his head to look at the old man in the demon mask standing at the other end of the room. He felt as if he had seen him before and raised his hand and stretched out in his direction, asking Kagaya who he was.

At that moment Yuto saw his hand suddenly sliced off at the wrist and fall to the ground, and then he realized that his own body was shattered into pieces again, just like yesterday. But unlike yesterday, he didn't know who had done it, and he didn't feel any pain.

Kagaya sighed helplessly as he realized what was happening, watching how pathetic the tiny pieces of flesh looked as they crawled towards each other before opening his mouth again.

A small tentacle made of blood was growing out of each piece of meat and trying to drag the piece of meat towards the others with support from the ground. But the first thing that comes to anyone's mind when looking at this situation is the image of someone who has been wounded to the point of death crawling to one side as if he has one last job to finish.

Kagaya looked at Yuto, who was now struggling to recover from having drunk so little of his own blood even though he had given permission yesterday, and became angry again. For a moment he felt like he had fallen to the level where a demon should concern himself with his own safety.

Of course, even if he had thought that, he had already asked and found out why he was drinking a small amount of his own blood. It was probably because of the curse that had been passed down to him for generations that the taste of his blood bothered this old manly-looking boy.

"Sakonji-san, I don't think he wants to attack me, you don't have to feel so nervous, but I appreciate what you did. Amane, did you prepare what I told you?"

When Kagaya finished speaking, the old man Sakonji sat on the floor some distance away as if nothing had happened and watched the small pieces of meat on the floor trying to join together. At the same time from another room came a beautiful white-haired purple-eyed woman named amane with a 1 liter blood bag. She cut the bag with a small knife and poured all the blood out onto the pieces of meat.

As soon as the tentacles on the pieces of meat felt the blood poured on them, a hole opened at the ends of the tentacles and they immediately started sucking the blood. In just a second or two, there was not a drop of blood left on the floor, and Yuto's body healed at a completely different speed compared to before.

When Yuto's body was back together, he looked at Kagaya in surprise.

"I've just told you one of the rules that you have to follow when I set you free. Now I'm going to quickly explain all the rules that you must follow properly, so listen carefully."

"Rule 1 - if you dare to escape, I will lock you in a small iron box for the next 10,000 years, as we found you again.

Rule 2 - the blood I just gave you was to make your body healthy. If you want to drink more blood in the future, you will drink demon blood or you will use political means to get the blood you want to drink. If it is discovered that you drank someone else's blood by using force, you will be subject to the same punishment as in the first rule."
