Threaten a demon!
With her own son!
What were the odds of that working?
Tetsu no Sosuke didn't know, but right now, it seemed to be working.
"Ahhhhh!"
Nakime's eyes suddenly turned bloodred. As she roared, walls materialized out of thin air. Corridors, doorways, and rooms drifted past one after another. When everything finally stopped, Tetsu no Sosuke found himself before a room.
One glance around told him all he needed to know. He pulled open his collar, and the Kasugai Crow carrying a paper talisman flew out.
"Take me to the Wind Pillar!"
Once they fell into the Infinity Castle, they were bound to be separated. If Nakime meant to rescue the young man, she would certainly appear before the Wind Pillar. Tetsu no Sosuke had prepared for that.
Yushiro's mental link connected all the Kasugai Crows. The moment they entered, he could easily locate the Wind Pillar. Then... with the Infinity Castle empty around him, he would sprint straight for his target.

Tetsu no Sosuke couldn't deny that his plan was underhanded.
In fact, when the threat actually worked, he spent a moment wondering which of them was human.
But the fact remained: if Nakime lived, Kibutsuji Muzan would be even harder to fight.

The only sticking point in the plan was the Wind Pillar...
For all his fearsome looks, the Wind Pillar wasn't evil at heart.
Set him against demons, however many there were, and he would charge in without hesitation.
But asking him to threaten someone with a human life... that was another matter.
And the others had already lain in wait at their assigned positions, but had they made it into the castle yet?
