Chapter 84

Chapter 84

We spent a whole day just hopping between trains and me buying a horse drawn carriage for the last leg of our journey and finally we managed to reach a secular mountain surrounded by Wisteria trees which would act as deterrent to all but the strongest demons, basically any demon that want an upper moon after trying to push through all these Wisteria trees would quickly collapse from the poisons especially after hearing that the servants who basically lived there whole lives with the family who ran the Demon Slayer Corps built a strong immunity both by literally centuries of breeding to do and just sheer over exposure.

Those servants were able to grind up and paste the concentrated Wisteria everywhere off the road leading up to the mansion so anyone who wanted to reach the leader would be harassed for god knows how long as they went up the winding path.

Though that wouldn't really happen as should Muzan decide to finally assault this place he could just have Nakime open a portal here. Follow current novels at novelhall.com)

"Jake, I must ask you to be respectful to the master." Giyu spoke out as he sat beside me on the cart.

I sent a surprised look at him responding. "Hey, I am not the type of person who attacks others as a greeting or not even bothering to get any confirmation about my status as a human being." I lectured him making his face twitch in irritation at my rapid-fire insults.

"Be as it may, I am not speaking only for myself but to let you know that the master has a deformity upon his face from bearing the cursed bloodline of the first demon. Now what I meant by this is for your benefit is to not react or do anything disrespectful towards him as all the Hashira see him as a sort of father figure or otherwise beloved person." Giyu explained making me nod in understanding as although I could certainly escape the encirclement of all the Hashira, I certainly wouldn't be able to defeat them all unless I literally burn them to a crisp.

"Alright that's fine and all but I have a question?" I asked after a moment of silence as he let me digest his words.

"So Obanai any meaningless threats from you?" I asked and turned around where said snake Hashira had ninja sneaked atop the carriages roof and was obviously going to threaten me with the snakes hiding within his clothes.

The more levelheaded Hashira could tell with his position and how close he was to the Kamado family that should he say something as stupid as yes or actually threaten me, I would obviously launch an attack. His eyes someone was somehow able to show a decent bit of emotion with the rest of his face below his nose covered by a scarf, showing a placid smile as he responded in the negative. "Hmm no I don't think that will be necessary with how intelligent you seem. Well either way I shall see you up atop the mountain where the master and the rest of the Hashira are waiting for you, Jake."

I could hear his unspoken threat though of should he go for me it would be from my back and I only rolled my eyes as I didnt take a non-supernatural snake seriously as with my Pure Body skill literally only Muzan's blood would be able to take me out of a fight within this world as far as I was aware.

Obanai like his fellow Hashira dashed into the tree line obviously taking a shortcut through the Wisteria tree's leaving Giyu to escort us to the top.

"They are still watching us, aren't they?" I asked wryly.

Giyu snorted and rolled his eyes. "Yes, and if anything, they are going to be judging your every move even harsher so let's make haste before any of the other Hashira get bored and deicide to test you or something."

I acknowledged his words by giving the duo of horses pulling my cart a nudge and they picked up into a slow trot rather than the causal walking pace they were already at.
