At the mention of her field of expertise, Tamayo's eyes brightened.
But before telling Xia Xi, she visibly hesitated.
"Mr. Kurumaji, can I trust you?"
After all.
This was something she had spent centuries preparing, only gradually achieving some small results.
It was not that she was reluctant to show Xia Xi.
Rather, she worried that this human swordsman before her might, in some future battle against an Upper Rank or even the Demon King...
Envy a demon's lifespan, or buckle under their threats.
And fall into becoming a demon.
If that happened, Muzan would be able to read every detail about her in his mind.
All the painstaking work she had put into fighting demons for over a century would inevitably go to waste.
Faced with Tamayo's question.
Xia Xi understood the concerns hidden in her eyes.
"Although I might not be able to beat the Demon King."
"When it comes to becoming a demon, though..."
The Dawn Hashira gave a reassuring smile, undisguised confidence shining in his brow.
"Please believe me. I will absolutely never become a demon."
Besides, Muzan could only become his sex slave. How could he ever let Muzan capture him and make him a sex slave?
If it really came to that.
He would rather become a suicide truck bomber than surrender at twenty minutes.
"I won't become a demon."
"And I won't sell any information about you to Muzan."
"Much less run off to become some expendable grunt without even social insurance and a housing fund."
His words left Tamayo blinking in bewilderment.
Although she did not understand some of the unfamiliar terms Xia Xi used.
She could still feel the determination that radiated from his very bones.
Looking into Xia Xi's sincere eyes, she slowly began to believe him a little.
