Chapter 67: Poor three widows
As a good guy, it was normal for someone to expect Isao to listen to their request and help them, especially when the voice and expression of those who asked for help were extremely miserable and filled with sadness.
Still, whether he would listen to their request or not, as a good person, he couldn't let them continue to kowtow on the ground of his courtyard even though they entered his property without permission.
Moreover, the three trespassers weren't strangers. Instead, everyone was familiar with each other.
Yes, those three were the wives of Tengen Uzui, the Sound Hashira, the man who had provoked Isao before.
Among all the Hashira, if Isao was asked who he remembered the most, it would be Tengen since, unlike others who were single and didn't have anyone by their sides, Tengen had three wives.
Yes, three.
Even though polygamy wasn't allowed in this country, this guy had three wives illegally.
Moreover, Tengen's wives were all beautiful.
Hinatsuru, Maiko, and Suma.
Those were their names, and due to their origin, they didn't have a family name, yet even so, they were beautiful on their own.
Hinatsuru had a curvaceous and slender figure with long black hair tied in a ponytail. She also had big, almond-shaped violet eyes framed with thin eyelashes and eyebrows and a distinct beauty mark located beneath her left eye, giving her a gentle and kind appearance.
Maiko had a voluptuous figure with pale skin and large golden brown eyes framed by eyelashes with prominent ones present on both the upper and lower lashes and thin eyebrows arched downward, which gave her a determined and headstrong look. Her black hair was tied up with golden-brown bangs, which hung loosely, framing her face.
Suma, the last woman, also had a shapely figure but with shoulder-length black hair, short bangs, and blue eyes.
All of them had revealing clothes that showed their deep cleavage and their smooth thighs. As they bowed down, their breasts became even more prominent and showed off their amazing figure.
While Isao wanted to see more, his women were inside, and more importantly, he was confused by their appearance.
Why the heck did that guy send their wives here?
Did Tengen wish to show off that he had three wives?
If so, then it was meaningless since Isao had a lot of experience and didn't lack women. At the same time, while he was a good guy, he wasn't someone that was easily provoked!
At the same time, he remembered that Tengen's plot shouldn't appear now.
Still, while Isao was confused, Tengen had died, and this fact didn't change. Frankly, he didn't feel anything since they didn't have much of a connection, and Tengen even antagonized him, so he couldn't feel sad.
However, as a good person, Isao felt sad about Tengen's three wives since they had become young widows due to the death of their husbands.
Still, as Tengen had decided to become the Demon Slayer Corps, he should have prepared for this day.
At the same time, Isao felt confused by the purpose of the three beautiful young widows that came to his house.
"I see... that's a shame. He is a powerful man, after all..."
Even if Isao didn't think so and had even defeated Tengen easily, he still needed to say so regardless. He wasn't a bad guy anymore, and as a good person, he needed to think about the feelings of others, especially when those three widows had just lost their husbands.
"You don't need to feel sorry for us. He has decided to become a Demon Slayer and expects something like this to happen in the future."
Hinatsuru, the calmest among the three, said those words while facing Isao. She might appear normal, but it was because she had cried before, and unlike the others, she didn't let herself be swallowed by the sadness. Still, even if she was sad, she had to force herself since there was something that she had to do.
"You can't say that." Isao shook his head and said, "Whatever the situation is, whether you are prepared or not, losing someone important to us is hurt. There is no need to pretend that everything is okay. Instead of holding yourself, you should release your emotions rather than burying them deep since they might affect you, especially when you have something that you want to achieve, right?"
Those words broke their defense, and the three cried together while hugging each other.
Isao felt that it was quite noisy, but he held it since, as a good person, he had to be patient. Still, he wondered whether the plot had changed due to him.
'Well, it doesn't matter.'
Unlike the protagonist, who would become stronger as they were challenged with impossibility, Isao had already become strong, especially when he had absorbed the DNA of many unique animals within him. While it was true that he spent a lovey-dovey day with Amane, the wife of Kagaya, he had become stronger than ever.
"So, why are you all here?"
When the three had stopped crying and calmed themselves, Shinobu asked with confusion.
Hinatsuru, Makio, and Suma took a deep breath and then kowtowed toward Isao once again.
"We'll do anything! Please help us to avenge Tengen-sama!" 3x
The three begged once again.
However, Isao's lips twitched, wondering why this plot was quite similar.
