Every single person was stunned and were trying to pull themselves together for unexpected visit of Akaza out of every else Uppermoon except Douma. Douma was thrilled and was practically bouncing up and down.
Reader knew what Douma wants next. "Reader chan!!!" He cooed with Puppy eyes. Reader looked at him unimpressed. "Please, let's take him with us too." She looked annoyed and still continued to pat Nezuko's head.
"Why? He doesn't even like you. We are not here to collect Twelve kizuki like rare gems." He pouted. "He is my best friend Reader chan, please. I can promise you, he is worth keeping. He is like really strong and loyal demon."
"What problem does he have?" Douma looked confused, So does everyone. "What?" He asked confused. "I mean, you are emotionless. Enmu is sadistic. So i see a pattern. I am not running a hospital to treat you all." She rolled her eyes.
Douma looked away scratching his head in embarrassment. "He is good man. Doesn't have any problems likely. Just, he has a bit bad temper. That's it." He waved his hand dismissively. She shooked her head in disapproval.
Flame hashira was looking at their exchange of conversation awkwardly. Though, his smile never left his face. 'Should he trust Reader chan? No matter the action, Reader chan always have a reason to do so. He have to report all this to corp. However, Oyokatasama seem to be already aware.' He thought.
"Reader chan, are you sure turning demon to your side is good idea? How can we human trust demon?" Rengoku san asked. She smiled softly at Flame hashira turning her attention away from Douma.
"I think it is. This demons are already powerful and turned. This will help us achieve three things. First being additional help in muzan's defeat. Second being loss of Muzan on his kizuki's. Third i won't have to risk any human's life for transition into demon."
She continued. "Also, obviously we can trust them. Because, i have full control over their thoughts and consciousness. They can't betray their only master, which will result into their death." With last sentence she turned her head to Enmu, who just nodded knowing all rules and indirect threat from his master.
"If you say so. I won't say a word till we discuss this on hashira meeting with Oyokatasama." He beamed at her. She nodded. "I will turn Upper moon 3 too. Solely because, it will piss Muzan off." She gigled devilishly.
Douma didn't care about reason. He can now finally mess with Akaza dono. Ohh, how much he misses him and his cute punches. He was happy that he side-hugged his Reader chan, while she herself had her hand placed on Nezuko's shoulder and patted her head with other.
Reader rolled her eyes. "Douma!! Back off." She didn't fight his embrace just crossed her hands. "Leave her. Don't hug her ever." Rengoku san was still smiling also crossing his arm. But, his voice carried a threat directed toward Douma.
Douma didn't care. Three boys were also glaring at Douma. Not liking how he is hugging Ice hashira. Zenitsu would have shouted and attacked if it wasn't a demon. That too Former Upper moon 2. He shuts his mouth and just glares.
Douma was yeeted across the train's coach from invisible force when he didn't listened to Reader. "Enmu san, can you stop the train? Let every passenger be asleep and Don't give them any nightmare." Enmu nodded after giving guilty smile and left the coach.
Douma returned to gathered group with pouty face and 'Sad' eyes. "Why did you throw me like that?" He asked. "You know why." That's all she said. Nezuko was now asleep. Tanjiro grabbed Nezuko's body to put her back into the box.
When both Enmu and Tanjiro returned they stepped out of Train. "When will he come? It's been a while since you said he will." Tanjiro asked to Douma. "Sweet boy, you should just wait few moments." He smiled at him which creeped Tanjiro out.
Reader put on the mask and made Douma wear it too. This time she didn't changed her body to male one. "Bhahaha. You all should be behind Inosuke sama and let me handle this Uper moon." Everyone again ignored him.
"Here he comes. Please stay behind and try to don't act recklessly. He have everything under control." She warned all demon slayer. Akaza landed on his feet after a big leap. He looked towards the present humans.
Something don't feel right. He smells someone very familiar and he is confused. Because, he is not sure who. He found Lower moon 1 standing beside slayers. One women and 5 man are other one who are present.
One man and only woman were dressed in luxury clothing. There presence screams rich. They have mask on. Well, only that women is going to make our alive tonight, he guess. But, one thing he can't digest is.
"What happened Lower moon 1? Are you betraying our Lord? I am wondering how are you even alive till this momment? Muzan sama should have get rid of you." He gritted his teeth.
"Ohh, come one Akaza san. Enmu san is doing what he should. After all, he is indeed with his true master now." Reader said to test if akaza really has a bad temper. "What do you mean?" He hissed. She shrugged.
"You see, he is serving me now. This means i am his master." Akaza scoffed. "No one is capable of doing that except our demon lord. He is our only boss." Now Reader scoffed. "Come on, don't be so dumb. I said i turned Enmu san. He serves me."
"Our demon lord is better than you and your little trickery. You have some guts to convert his creation against him." He pointed towards Enmu. She rolled her eyes. "Yeah? Well how about i tell you, that your demon king is dumbest and incompetent person ever."
"Imagine living thousand of Years and still being broke. Your demon king don't have any brain or money. He can't even find a stupid flower. He still steals stuff around such a shame for so called 'demon king'. How do you even face yourself in the mirror? Can't even walk in sun? Such a disappointment."
Akaza looked intrigued his eyes going wide. How does this women know about blue spider lily? "How do yo-" before he could complete his sentence he felt niddle on his chest. He looked down to his chest he found an injection.
He looked toward women more fascinated by wierd weapon. Soon, his mind felt foggy and his body started twitching. He felt agony for a whole half minute. After this he fell on his knees infront of Reader. "Command master." He shouted.
"Let's go inside train. After that i will give you all instructions." Everyone headed to train but Inosuke didn't move. Reader noticed it. She decided to walk upto him and pat his head through his boar mask. Inosuke felt warm and fuzzy feeling.
"What happened boar boy?" She asked smiling. "Huh!! Everyone ignored me. Why you all didn't praise me for my strength?" He asked while huffing making steam out from his boar mask's nose. She gigled and patted his shoulders.
"Maybe because, i didn't saw you fight yet. How about we have a proper fight someday? You should show me how powerful you truly are inosuke kun." She tried to make him feel better. Inosuke started to have white puffs around his head.
He huffed and nodded enthusiastically. "Surely, i will. I am the strongest. Inosuke same is great, (mispronounced name)." He laughed maniacally. She was dumbfounded at wierd nickname, she waived it off. They both headed to train's inside.
"Douma! Where is lotus?" She asked as she spots him as his face is revealed. "I will fetch him, Reader chan." Douma smiled and goes onto the coach which had their luggage. Akaza frowned. "Douma? Is he him master?" He asked in disbelief. "Yes, he is former Upper moon 2. He just dyed his hair and wears contact lens."
"What is contact lens?" Tanjiro asked confused in japanese accent which she found cute. "It's something you can wear to change your eye colour. Mostly people use it for medical issues related to eyes. It's expensive and rare. We got it from foreign country." She answered smiling. Everyone was fascinated.
Akaza's faced turned into disgust. That's why felt someone familiar here. Reader laughed at his reaction. Akaza felt his cheeks pinkened. "Don't worry. He won't piss you that much. I will make sure he won't bother you too much. I know you don't like him that well." He felt somewhat relief.
Others were confused at Upper moon three's reaction. Why one Upper moon will hate other? Weren't they on same team once? And what is this lotus thing? "What is lotus, Reader san?" Zenitsu asked smiling at her too hard.
At very momment, Douma returned. He holded lotus on his hand while lotus purred and snuggled into Douma's embrace. "Him. My cat." She smiled back at Zenitsu while pointing at lotus. She took lotus from Douma's hand.
"Akaza san, let me tell you some rules that you need to follow. Under my control, you are bound to help humans. You have to stop killing humans completely. Don't worry, i will give you dosage which will help you with it. Douma can you give Akaza san injection please."
Akaza was attentively listening till he heard Douma's name. He again made disgusted face while Douma happily nodded. He goes on to show Akaza dono his injection and smile at him. Akaza was literally frowning more and more as time was going by.
Akaza wanted to punch Douma so hard on his face but he controlled himself. He wanted to leave a good impression on his new master. He will do anything for his master as he did it for Muzan sama earlier. He will even leave human killing if master wants to.
"Are you done?" Akaza scoffed at Douma who was taking pleasure in pissing him off. He was literally making it painfully slow to shove a damn injection on his skin. "Douma!" Reader warned Douma who pouted and finished quickly.
"Now Akaza san you won't feel craving for any human meat. It will take you and Enmu san both at least one week for completely let your previous diet go. Also, i can walk in sun and so does Douma but till some extent. It will take you both time for same. Hence, i want you to show some patience."
Akaza was speechles. She can walk in sun? How? She is demon, right? Douma can too? He have to wait for walk in sun. He can do that. But, main question remains. Why is she helping humans? Isn't she also a demon?
Still he nodded. Reader started playing with lotus. "Your cat is cute, Reader san." Tanjiro complimented. She smiled at him. "Isn't he? His name is lotus. He loves me and Douma a lot. We have been taking care of him."
Akaza scoffed at mention of Douma's name. Zenitsu screeched at noise. How come he will handle living with 5 demons? Nezuko chan and Reader san is someone he can trust but others? Tanjiro patted Zenitsu's head. "How old he is?"
"He is four year old." Douma answered smiling. "What? But, he is small in size." Zenitsu screamed in confusion. "He is demon?" Tanjiro guessed because of smell cat was carrying was similar to both Douma and Reader. Also, chachamaru is a demon cat he knows.
"Yes, he is. I didn't plan to turn him. Still, he was turned because i was little careless. He looks fragile cute kitten but he is very strong." Reader confirmed while petting lotus.
"Now, let's come back to action. As you can see, it's almost morning. We will let every passenger get up from their sleep. Things will go as it was supposed to. We will also head to last destination. After that we will head to corp. Because, it will make sure the passengers are safe. I can't trust Muzan."
She finally removes her mask. Akaza remembers the face as the women Muzan sama was looking for. He was thinking to himself But, it didn't go unnoticed by Reader. "I am the Ice hashira Muzan is looking for. Right?" Akaza nodded. She waived it off.
"Akaza san and Enmu san, i will give you a special clothes. It is sun resistant, this way you won't burning from rays coming through windows. You have to wear it till you all conquer sun like Douma. They nodded in understanding.
Douma went on to grab the sun ressistant clothes from their luggage. After he returns, he hands out those cloths to both demons. Enmu thanked Douma. While Akaza scoffed at Douma. "Let's hope this goes well." Reader whispers to herself.
