Everyone was startled by these words and turned to look at Giyu Tomioka.

At this moment, Giyu Tomioka remained kneeling calmly in place.

Even when he mentioned that he might commit seppuku in the future, his expression didn't change at all.

Mr. Tomioka looks so handsome!

Seeing Giyu Tomioka like this, Mitsuri Kanroji couldn't help but make a mental comment.

Tanjiro stared blankly at Giyu Tomioka.

Tears streamed uncontrollably down his cheeks.

Mr. Tomioka is actually willing to go to this extent for himself and Nezuko...

However, Sanemi Shinazugawa remained unconvinced. "Nobody asked you to commit suicide, and even if you did, so what? Can someone eaten by a demon come back? If you want to die, then go die yourself! This is no guarantee whatsoever!"

Upon hearing Sanemi Shinazugawa's words, Giyu finally turned his gaze over.

"So what do you want?"

Sanemi Shinazugawa replied, "Of course, we should just kill this demon! That way, there won't be any other problems!"

" Nezuko was forced to become a demon, and she didn't eat people after becoming a demon. She shouldn't be treated like this!" Kanae frowned deeply.

"Forced... How pitiful!" Gyomei Himejima welled with tears. "But since she's already been turned into a demon, perhaps death is a better release for her!"

Tanjiro argued, "No, Nezuko can definitely turn back into a human! My main purpose in becoming a member of the Demon Slayer Corps was to find a way to make Nezuko turn back into a human!"

"Tch..." Obanai Iguro chuckled, "A demon turning into a human? Don't be ridiculous!"

Tanjiro said, "No, I will definitely find a way to turn Nezuko back into a human!"

"Boy! Give up! Once a person becomes a demon, they can never become a human again!" Kyojuro Rengoku shouted. "Let's execute this girl instead!"

"I already said..."

Tanjiro was interrupted by Kagaya Ubuyashiki before he could finish speaking.

"Since we can't reach a consensus, why don't we express our opinions and see if more people agree that Nezuko exists, or if more people deny Nezuko existence!"

After speaking, Kagaya Ubuyashiki looked gently at the crowd below and asked, "How was it?"

Upon hearing this, everyone looked around and finally nodded slowly.

If we can't reach a consensus, it seems that this is indeed the only way.

Seeing that everyone had reached a consensus, Kagaya Ubuyashiki smiled and turned to look at Giyu Tomioka on the far right.

"Then let's start with Giyu!"

Giyu Tomioka simply replied, "I agree!"

"A swordsman with a demon, how magnificent! If she were to eat people, I certainly wouldn't approve, but since Kato acknowledges their existence, I'll trust Kato this once!"

Tengen Uzui stretched his shoulders slightly.

Agreed!

Next, Kyojuro Rengoku declared loudly, "Just as I said, I disagree!"

Sanemi Shinazugawa chimed in, "Ah! The Demon Slayer Corps is for eliminating demons! If they accept demons, then what kind of Demon Slayer Corps are they?"

Therefore, I disagree!

Shinobu Kocho gently nudged Muichiro beside her, and only then did Muichiro slowly lower his gaze from the sky.

"Since Master agrees, then I agree too!"

Shinobu Kocho quickly added, "Since you agree, I agree too!"

The same sentence structure made Sanemi Shinazugawa's cheek twitch slightly. "Hey, hey, hey! Don't you guys have any opinions of your own? You agree with what others agree with?"

Muichiro had already looked up at the sky again, ignoring Sanemi Shinazugawa.

Shinobu Kocho glanced at him, but ignored him as well.

Upon seeing this, veins bulged on Sanemi Shinazugawa's forehead once again.

"Because they've spent so much time with us, they're inevitably influenced by us!"

Kanae offered an explanation, and then made her own statement.

I acknowledge Nezuko's existence!

Mitsuri Kanroji spoke up, "Well... since this is Master's wish, and Kanae and Shinobu both agree, then I agree too!"

Gyomei Himejima clasped his hands together, "I cannot accept this!"

Finally Obanai Iguro spoke up:

"Ultimately, a ghost is a ghost. Even if she didn't eat people before, it's hard to guarantee she won't in the future, so I don't agree with that!"

After all the pillars had expressed their opinions, Kagaya Ubuyashiki spoke up:

"Currently, those who disagree with Nezuko are Kyojuro, Sanemi, Gyomei, and Obanai, totaling 4 votes!"

Those who agreed included Giyu, Tengen, Muichiro, Shinobu, Kanae, and Mitsuri, for a total of 6 votes!

Obanai Iguro, "Furthermore, our Master also approves of this demon."

Gyomei Himejima: "So, the final result is 7:4, meaning most people acknowledge her existence?"

"So, does anyone have any objections to this result?" Kagaya Ubuyashiki asked softly.

The pillars remained kneeling silently, even those who disagreed did not utter a word.

Although this result will not directly lead them to agree with Nezuko.

But now that the results are in, they can't say anything more.

Only Sanemi Shinazugawa still looked unwilling. After thinking for a moment, he spoke again:

"What if she eats people someday..."

Before Sanemi Shinazugawa Giyu Tomioka interrupted:

"Then I'll find them, kill them, and then commit seppuku myself!"

Sanemi Shinazugawa glanced at Giyu Tomioka, "I hope you can do that in the future!"

Butterfly Mansion, Hospital Ward.

After discussing Nezuko's situation, Tanjiro was sent to the Butterfly Mansion for treatment.

After the treatment was completed, all the wounds, big and small, on Tanjiro's body were wrapped with bandages.

He was then taken to the ward.

At this moment, Tanjiro was leaning against the bed, looking at the scenery outside the window.

Creak!

The person in the next bed finally stirred after who knows how long they had been sleeping.

Tanjiro turned his head and looked at Zenitsu, laughing, " Zenitsu, you're finally awake!"

Zenitsu was still a little dazed after waking up, but he still looked over in the direction of the sound.

" Tanjiro?"

After saying that, he turned his head and looked around at the surroundings, asking:

Where am I?

Tanjiro explained, "This is the Butterfly Mansion, the Demon Slayer Corps ' treatment center!"

Zenitsu nodded upon hearing this, but his gaze still lingered on the situation in the ward with a hint of curiosity.

"By the way, Zenitsu, did you go into the mountains again later?" Tanjiro asked.

Upon hearing Tanjiro's words, Zenitsu, whose mind was still a little groggy from just waking up, immediately understood and said in a tearful voice:

" Tanjiro, do you know what? I got bitten by a stinky spider! It hurt like hell, I almost turned into a spider!"
