"Nonsense! What would a demon like you know about love?!"
Intercepted and toyed with by the ice dragon, unable to get anywhere near Doma, one of Uzui Tengen's two wives cursed at him furiously.
"What kind of talk is that～"
Suddenly attacked personally, Doma's face was full of grievance:
"I may be a demon, but at the root of it, I was also transformed from a human. My heart is made of flesh too, you know?
Look, it's still thumping away in my chest right now. I have all the emotions humans should have, especially love—how could I not understand it?
It's your former husband I'm talking about. He kept going on about love, love, but his actual behavior..."
"Don't you dare speak ill of Lord Tengen!"
"Huh? After all this time, you still defend that man so fiercely?"
With a look as if he were seeing "deluded, fallen women," Doma gazed at the two angry women before him and let out a light sigh.
"Actually, I don't think you need to be like this. Although you did indeed lose a scummy husband, you still have me!
I may not be able to become your new husband, but I can absolutely become your new boss!"
Placing his hand over his chest, Doma spoke with an extremely sincere tone:
"To be frank with you two, I! Doma! am the mastermind behind the Eternal Bliss Film Production Company! A world-renowned super director!
I can guarantee with my most professional industry eye—both of you have top-tier looks and figures!
You were born to be big stars in the entertainment industry! With just a bit more acting practice, you'll definitely become internationally famous superstars!
How about it? Are you interested? Are your hearts already racing?!
Then hurry up and join our Eternal Bliss! If you're willing, we can sign the contract right away!"
"You beast! You... you killed Lord Tengen and Suma, and now you actually want us to join your weird company?
If you have the guts, just kill us too!"
"Huh? That wouldn't be very nice, would it?"
Watching the two women who were so emotional they were about to cry, Doma raised his hand and scratched his head.
"I did indeed kill your husband, but people always need to look forward. I still very much hope you can continue living.
Or, do you actually want to live forever with me, like your former sister?"
[Live forever?]
[This demon actually sees devouring humans as living forever with him?]
The two women were once again shocked by Doma's unique thought process.
But in the next instant, having already made their resolve and knowing their mission tonight, they immediately made their decision.
"Fine! Come eat me! I didn't want to live anymore anyway!"
Clearly, the two women were deliberately provoking Doma.
Anyone even slightly cautious could detect something wrong.
Hidden within their bodies was an extremely high concentration of wisteria poison. Only by making Doma eat them could they transfer this toxin into his body, creating an opportunity for the Demon Slayers to slay him later.
However, faced with such an obvious trap, Doma's reaction was...
"I understand."
Slowly rising from his seat, Doma's face was now written all over with the words "compassion for all living beings."
"Since this is your wish, I will certainly help you achieve it.
Although this is not my original intention, as the founder of the Eternal Bliss Sect, listening to human troubles and fulfilling your needs is my duty, is it not?"
He agreed very readily.
It wasn't that Doma couldn't detect the problem.
Honestly, with his intelligence, after seeing these two women deliberately provoking him and acting suspiciously eager to die, he had already realized something was off.
However, realizing something was one thing; what to do about it was another.
Compared to simply killing these two women outright or letting them go,
Doma still wanted to try—if he devoured them according to their wishes, what interesting things might happen afterward?
After all, tonight was the final battle between demons and Demon Slayers!
After tonight, the Demon Slayers would become history.
Therefore, if he didn't properly play with them and enjoy himself to the fullest tonight, he would never have this chance again, would he?
Thinking this, Doma finally moved.
His figure vanished from where he stood, and with extreme speed, instantly appeared behind the two women.
"Well then, shall we do this one by one?"
Raising both hands to embrace one of them, Doma used the same method as before in the film studio—directly pressing her into his own body, completely devouring her at the cellular level in an instant!
"Next, it's your turn～"
Without the slightest pause, immediately after swallowing one, he turned to the other beside her and devoured her completely in the same manner.
"Hmm... nothing seems to have happened..."
Having swallowed two people in one breath, Doma sensed the changes within his body. Apart from a slight increase in satisfaction, there seemed to be no other sensation?
"Strange, could it be that those two really just came here seeking death?
That shouldn't be right. According to the normal script, the protagonists should always leave some trump cards at times like these..."
"Miss Hinatsuru! Miss Makio! Are you here?"
"Hmm?"
Just as Doma was about to turn and return to his seat, behind him, outside the great doors of the lotus church, a voice suddenly rang out that he found somewhat familiar.
In the next instant, the doors were pushed open again, and two figures walked in.
They were Tanjiro and Kanroji Mitsuri, who had been chasing after the two women.
"It's you?!"
The moment he recognized Doma, Tanjiro's pupils contracted sharply. He almost instantly drew the Nichirin Blade from his waist, positioning himself before Kanroji Mitsuri.
It was Upper Rank Two!
This unique church was actually his territory?!
[Eh, this demon... he's unexpectedly... very handsome?]
Unlike Tanjiro who instantly entered alert mode, the moment she saw Doma, Kanroji Mitsuri was first stunned.
This girl who was a natural-born romantic, who had never had a proper relationship from childhood to adulthood, and who was perhaps a bit repressed, blushed slightly the moment she laid eyes on Doma.
This was normal, after all—Doma's external appearance was indeed exceptional.
