Chapter 41: I Have Eaten the Blue Spider Lily.

...

...

After some explanation.

Tamayo raised her hand and propped her chin.

She tilted her head slightly, seeming to understand Tanjuro's meaning:

"So, you want me to study your physique and blood?"

Tamayo slowly put her hands on her kimono, she asked Tanjuro, and did not mention why the other party knew her identity as a doctor.

She glanced at Tanjuro's earrings.

——Was it told to him by Ubuyashiki...

Tamayo's misty eyes flashed with thought.

As for Tanjuro's request, even if he didn't say it, Tamayo would do it after she knew it.

Perhaps it was because of past sins, or perhaps it was because of hatred for Muzan.

In short, Tamayo is now continuing the meaning of her existence in her own way.

"That's right." Tanjuro nodded, seeming to be relieved that the other party understood his meaning, and he himself also had difficulty explaining his current physical condition clearly.

Having explained his own situation, next,

——It's about dealing with Muzan.

Tanjuro, with a serious expression, casually and decisively threw out a piece of news that shocked Tamayo:

"I have eaten the Blue Spider Lily."

The moment the last note of this sentence fell.

The atmosphere among the three became as silent as death.

Even Yushiro, who had wanted to explode just now, was also stunned in place.

——Blue Spider Lily.

Even he, who had been turned into a demon by Tamayo, had heard of this thing from Tamayo.

That is——what Muzan has been desperately looking for, the last ingredient that can help him overcome sunlight.

But for thousands of years, Muzan has created countless demons to help him find this ingredient, but has never found it.

And now...

Yushiro stared blankly at Tanjuro, then stiffly turned his head and looked at Tamayo.

Tamayo's reaction at this moment was not much better than Yushiro's.

She slightly opened her mouth, seemed a bit surprised, choked and looked at Tanjuro, as if trying to discern the truth of the words in his mouth.

After making eye contact with Yushiro.

Tamayo quietly observed a circle around her, found that there were no other people in the ruins.

Her expression became serious, she slowly stood up from the ground, pursed her lips:

"Kamado-san..."

"This kind of thing is really not suitable to be said on the street."

"Please come with me."

Then, she turned around, signaled Yushiro and Tanjuro to follow.

Several people stood up, in the dark night, passed through the broken walls nearby.

...

...

After a lot of twists and turns.

Under Tamayo's lead.

Tanjuro arrived in front of a solemnly decorated mansion.

The intact mansion, compared with the ruins not far around the mansion, formed a very sharp contrast——it seems that Yushiro used demon art to avoid the explosion happening nearby.

"We're here." Tamayo stood at the door of the mansion, she reached out her hand, gently pushed open the door, turned around, and looked at Tanjuro with Yushiro:

"Please come in, Kamado-san."

Squeak...

The sound of the wooden door squeezing slowly came.

...

Inside the brightly lit room.

Tamayo was kneeling on the tatami, she and Yushiro sat together, opposite them was Tanjuro.

"We..." Tamayo hesitated and glanced at Tanjuro, she paused,

her expression was a bit unnatural:

"Let's continue the topic just now..."

"About... Kamado-san, you have eaten the Blue Spider Lily..."

She hesitated for a moment, and finally asked:

"Can you tell me in detail?"

"Yes." Tanjuro nodded his head, he was used to this plain way of speaking, his facial expression didn't change much:

"My wife, a few years ago, found the place where the Blue Spider Lily bloomed."

Tanjuro had no expression, he continued to speak, only when he mentioned 'wife', the corner of his mouth imperceptibly raised slightly:

"That is a kind of flower that does not bloom every year, even if it blooms, the time is extremely short."

"It grows near the top of the mountain."

"It's a beautiful flower when it blooms."

Hearing Tanjuro's detailed description, Tamayo's expression became more serious.

She slightly lowered her head, pondering, her fingers couldn't help but tremble a bit.

Plus the pair of earrings on him... it should be true.

This matter is a bit too shocking for her, for a while, Tamayo is not clear whether this is a good thing or a bad thing.

After pondering for a moment.

"...Please... allow me to collect some blood, Kamado-san."

Tamayo raised her head, her gentle voice was slightly trembling, her eyebrows were slightly furrowed, and there was a hint of excitement in her eyes:

"This is important to me... no, to everyone...!"

She said, slowly closing her eyes, her head slightly drooping.

The Blue Spider Lily flower — the key medicine for demons to overcome sunlight.

And having once eaten this medicine, Tanjuro's blood, Tamayo believes, must be able to yield something valuable.

At least...

Tamayo slowly opened her eyes, her lips trembling slightly, clearly her emotions were fluctuating greatly.

——It can have a negative impact on that guy!

"Tamayo-sama..."

Yushiro, who was next to her, keenly noticed Tamayo's emotions, he turned his head and looked over worriedly.

The hand placed on the black hakama unconsciously clenched, his brows furrowed.

"Of course, this is also my request, Tamayo-sama."

Tanjuro smiled and nodded, as if reminiscing about past memories with his family, his mood was quite good now:

"Our goals are the same."

"As long as it's useful, I will cooperate with you with all my might."

Saying that, he reached out and rolled up the dark red feather weave, revealing his clearly muscular forearm, and gently patted it:

"We can start right now."

"Thank you..." Tamayo gratefully nodded at Tanjuro, she slowly stood up, her steps were somewhat light due to excitement.

Thud.

She stumbled, almost losing her balance.

"Tamayo-sama!" Seeing this, Yushiro quickly rushed up, reached out to support Tamayo, and quickly said:

"Sit down, I can handle the next things."

Saying that, he slowly helped Tamayo sit down, and he got up and rummaged in the cabinet on the other side of the room.

In the end, Yushiro took a few transparent syringes, shaking with light, and walked straight towards Tanjuro.

...

After a while.

"Puchi!"

Yushiro pulled the blood-filled syringe from Tanjuro's arm.

The crystal clear crimson blood reflected a weird red light under the dim light.

He carefully placed the fourth blood-filled syringe in the wooden box.

Tanjuro sat aside, he slowly loosened his arm, looked at the needle hole on his arm that had already stopped bleeding, and slowly stood up.

After saying goodbye to Tamayo and Yushiro, he hurriedly left here.

There was a faint eagerness in his heart.

——He wants to return to the Butterfly Mansion.

He didn't go back before because he didn't have enough resurrection power.

If his family affected by dragon cough, he would probably spend the rest of his life in regret.

But now.

Tanjuro felt the two resurrection powers lighting up in his body, and his body full of physical strength, his heart was filled with joy.

A/N : In the formula book, it is clearly mentioned that Kie knows the opening place of the Blue Spider Lily flower and has taken Tanjuro to see it, and some secondary creations are made here.
