Chapter 48 - Chapter 48: Zenitsu Driven Mad by Jealousy

After Uzui Tengen finished speaking, Tanjiro was the first to raise his hand to ask a question, and he said very seriously,

"Excuse me, what kind of god are you specifically in charge of?"

"This one is also quite sick..."

Zenitsu was already shocked, and hearing Tanjiro's question, he looked at Tanjiro with the eyes of an idiot.

In response, Uzui Tengen nodded appreciatively,

"That's a good question! You kid has a lot of potential!"

Zenitsu couldn't help but complain internally, 'That's an idiotic question! What kind of potential does an Onimusha have!'

Immediately after, Uzui Tengen struck a very flamboyant pose and said in a deep voice,

"I am the god of splendor, the god of festivities!"

Agatsuma Zenitsu broke out in a cold sweat, thinking to himself, 'You're an idiot, aren't you? You're the god of idiots.'

Inosuke put his hands on his hips and laughed twice, "I am the King of the Mountains, please take care of me, god of festivities!"

This time, it was Uzui Tengen who looked at Inosuke with the eyes of an idiot and said,

"What are you talking about? You're a disgusting fellow."

Zenitsu was instantly struck, staring at Uzui Tengen in shock.

But Inosuke was enraged, and Tanjiro, acting as the mediator, desperately held back Inosuke, who wanted to pounce.

"Alright, no time for fooling around~"

Uzui Tengen no longer paid attention to Inosuke, who still wanted to pounce, and suggested, "There's a Wisteria House on the way from here to the Flower District."

"Let's go there to prepare first!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Uzui Tengen casually turned around and said in a flat voice,

"Follow me!"

The next second, Uzui Tengen's figure disappeared from where he stood!

Tanjiro and the other two were stunned for a few seconds, then Zenitsu was the first to react, or rather, he looked at the spot where Uzui Tengen disappeared in horror.

"Eh? Disappeared? Huh?!"

Tanjiro's mouth was wide open as he looked at the distant Uzui Tengen, exclaiming in shock,

"So fast!! The distance is already so great, he's just a tiny speck now!"

Hiss——————

"This is fast?"

Listening to the heavy gasp and that flat tone,

Tanjiro and the other two looked at Tomioka Giyu in unison.

"Watch closely, Tanjiro, how Water Breathing is used!"

Before he finished speaking, Tomioka Giyu's figure became ethereal, exploding in an instant.

"Water Breathing · Ninth Move, Modified! Flowing Ripple Splash!"

Tanjiro and the other two were stunned again, this time Inosuke was the first to speak with a trembling voice,

"This, is this the power of the god of festivities and Giyu?!"

The 'honest man' Tanjiro turned his head and patiently explained,

"No, those two are Hashira, Mr. Tomioka Giyu and Mr. Uzui Tengen (●'◡'●)"

Seeing that the two of them were still chatting, Agatsuma Zenitsu became furious and said,

"Hurry up and chase, hurry up and chase!!"

In the distance, the people of the Wisteria House saw Tomioka Giyu's uniform and came out to greet him.

Tomioka Giyu had a faint smile on his lips and bowed slightly, saying, "No need for this, just get me a pot of tea."

A few minutes later, Uzui Tengen also walked in, looking displeased.

"Hmph, using a Move to travel, you're really cunning, Tomioka!"

Tomioka Giyu sat leisurely on the tatami, drinking tea, choosing to completely ignore Uzui Tengen's complaints.

Uzui Tengen didn't mind, sat opposite Tomioka Giyu, and took a sip of tea before saying seriously,

"Although it's not confirmed yet whether they are the two demons you fought before,"

"But just in case, let's tell them about it later."

"Mhm, okay," Tomioka Giyu replied softly. In fact, he already had this intention even without Uzui Tengen saying anything.

However, even with the information, Gyutaro and Daki were not so easy to deal with.

Uzui Tengen paused for a few seconds after speaking, then said in a somewhat low tone,

"My wives were gathering information in the Flower District, but then contact was inexplicably lost. Do you think it could be..."

"Don't worry!" Tomioka Giyu put down his teacup, his tone full of certainty, "Nothing will happen, I have a feeling."

Uzui Tengen sighed, taking Tomioka Giyu's words as mere comfort.

After another while, Tanjiro and the other two finally arrived late.

"You guys are really slow!"

As Uzui Tengen said this, the people of the Wisteria House also brought out tea and snacks.

Seeing food, Inosuke took off his boar head, grabbed the snacks with both hands, and devoured them wildly.

Uzui Tengen saw that it was about time and instructed, "Alright, listen to me carefully."

"After infiltrating the Flower District, you first go find my wives."

"I will also search for traces of the demon!"

After listening, Tanjiro drank his tea blankly, and Inosuke devoured his snacks.

Only Zenitsu was stunned for a moment, then his face contorted, and he immediately exploded in anger,

"What is all this?!"

"Huh, what?" Uzui Tengen looked at Zenitsu, confused.

"Please don't joke around!! You're actually asking your subordinates to do personal errands, to find your wives?!"

Uzui Tengen explained angrily, "Haa? What are you misunderstanding?!"

"No, let me finish!" Zenitsu didn't give Uzui Tengen a chance to explain.

"It's obvious that a weirdo like you wouldn't be popular, right?!"

"But still! To casually order us Demon Slayer Corps members around just because you want wives!"

"Mr. Tomioka, please punish this kind of guy quickly!!"

Tomioka Giyu quietly drank his tea, pretending not to hear. He could only silently wish that Zenitsu could withstand Uzui Tengen's iron fist.

"Are you an idiot?!"

Uzui Tengen was so angry that he stood up and roared,

"My wives infiltrated the Flower District to diligently gather information about demons!!"

"I came because the regular contact suddenly broke off!"

Zenitsu suddenly calmed down, but he had already begun to reject reality.

"You're just imagining it, aren't you?"

"You brat!!" Uzui Tengen pulled out a thick stack of letters from behind him and slammed them hard on Zenitsu's face.

"These are the letters we used to communicate with crows!!"

Clap——————

Tanjiro picked up some at this moment, looked at them, and exclaimed somewhat emotionally,

"There are many, they must have been undercover for a long time, right?"

"Yes, that's right, because I have three wives."

Uzui Tengen's casual remark, little did he know, caused immense damage to Zenitsu's young heart.

Zenitsu, who had been knocked down by the letters, suddenly sat up, his eyes wide open, and he pointed at Uzui Tengen, trembling, saying in disbelief,

"Three?! Wives... three... three?!"

"You... you guy!! Why do you have three wives?! What a joke!!!"

Uzui Tengen could no longer bear it, and a punch accurately hit Zenitsu's stomach!

"Do you have any objections?!"

Tomioka Giyu looked at Zenitsu, who was lying on the tatami, and secretly thought, 'Youth is good, he falls asleep as soon as he lies down~'
