Chapter 86

I almost walked into the hotel with the half-dressed wild child still on my shoulder and I could only heel turn to walk into the alley and find my open window where I flew out and thankfully, I was smart enough to light a small candle and place it on the side of the windowsill to draw my attention.

I gently placed the girl onto the futon, and I just sat there in the hotel rooms chair thinking deeply on what the hell to do with this girl.

Wait... Isn't she basically Nezuko just a lot dirtier? Her situation was so similar to Nezuko that I had already made up my mind about what to do as I took out a western seafaring compass and lastly with a flash, I dropped the demon mothers' corpse onto the ground and before it could fade into motes of ashes I called out. "Fuse" The pieces were engulfed into a glow which shot forward and merged into the compass and after the light show faded, I took out my All-Seeing Glasses.

Demon Hunter Compass- Instead of pointing North, it will point to nearest being carrying a demonic signature within twenty-five kilometers- Gold-

"This will do just fine" I muttered and then spent a bit of time fusing a basically a gag for the girl so I could bind her mouth if needed and then I put the still unconscious girl into a sealed box I also fused together like what Nezuko traveled in but a good deal bigger and also padded as I planned on flying to Tokyo so I could try to hunt down Tomoya the lady who promised to cure Nezuko.

Seeing as I had a solid week before Shinobu arrived here in Kyoto, I had plenty of time to fly to Tokyo talk to Tamayo and hell if I was lucky, I could possibly just pawn this kid off on her with how she has basically adopted Yushiro, maybe she would be willing to take her on though if she is only able or willing to curb the bloodlust the kid will have from being a demon and I don't see her being too antagonistic.

I wouldn't mind taking her back to Danmachi as I could see Hestia and Freya have been wanting a pet project and having a psycho kid to rehabilitate would be right up Freya's alley as she has dealt with all kinds of characters in the time, she has led her Familia.

Throwing the box over my shoulder I jumped out of the window and started flying in the general direction of Tokyo that I could read off the maps. By general I knew with how mountainous Japan was that I would be trying to fly straight to Tokyo rather than following the weird winding train tracks that would waste a lot of time.

-

It took me a solid four hours it felt like to fly from Kyoto to Tokyo and this time I had a bit more practice with flying long distance and it was only when I saw the huge sprawling lit up area that I knew that it was Tokyo and not just another town I was simply flying by.

But now I had a more irritating problem as I could feel Nerine, the demon child I stuffed in the box kicking the sides of the boxes walls and crying out.

"Alright let's deal with her first." I thought shuddering at the thought of running around downtown Tokyo looking for Tomoya and her somehow breaking my fused box and escaping into the crowd or just killing people before I could subdue her.

I undid the latch on the bottom and the rolled out and instantly kicked out at my chest and even as the blow made a loud crashing noise as her superhuman limb clashed against my armor, I was braced against the ground and my own falna enhanced strength far outstripped her so all she did was hurt her own leg. "Kid enough, I need to talk to you otherwise I will have to leave you out in the sun." I threatened to get her attention and I was right as the child instantly straightened up and although she was already crying at the pain in her leg and the loss of her mother, I didnt bother trying to be gentle or supportive as she simply saw me as the killer of her mother and worse as food.

"Nerine I am a monster hunter and I have two choices when it comes to you." I said solemnly getting her attention as she knew these so-called choices would basically be her fate. "You're two choices in life at this point is for me to drug the shit out of you into a coma and I leave you to fade into dust from the sun or I take you there into Tokyo to someone who could possibly cure your demon hood." Call me a bitch or whatever but I didnt have it in me to take her head off her shoulder's and even if it was a boy, it would have been the same.

"In my view you are still have some innocence as you are controlled by your bloodlust, and yet you obviously haven't feasted on enough human flesh to develop a Blood Demon Art. In other words, you are still redeemable in my eyes whereas your mother has spent god knows how long in Douma's cult as well as having her own Blood Demon Art."

I watched the child absorb my words even as she was obviously sucking in her tears and finally, she nodded and honestly didnt really care whether it was self-preservation or she was simply going to backstab me later on, I was going to try to get her cured and if she acts like a little shit, I will just leave her here when I leave this world. "I guess become a human again." She muttered dropping her eyes back to the ground defeatedly.

"Alright here get back in the box I need to find the expert who will turn you back to a human." I ordered and dropped the box onto the ground.

"But it's dark in there!" She cried out obviously not wanting to be locked into a padded box that was as airtight as a coffin not to mention claustrophobic.

"The dark doesn't matter to you as a demon, and I can't trust that you won't try to flee into a crowd or just attack any humans you see, so get in the box or I will 'put' you in the box." I ordered and put emphasis on putting her in there and she already knew she couldn't overpower so she just sniffled and crawled into it.

"Fine... Just don't hurt me sir." She said pitifully and I could only sigh knowing it wasn't an act and she was truly scared I was going to either physically harm her or more common in this era sexually use her. But I like my women being double digit in age, so she was firmly out of my interest range plus she was literally filthy and unlike Lili when Hestia showed her off while cleaning her off, she wasn't a pallum.
