Truth [DS Fanfic] Tanjiro×Muzan

Chapter 3 Slay 8

"Your first mission. Yushiro an owner of a rivaling business of ours is going to a face of bankruptcy. No matter how much I try to persuade them to sell it to me, they wouldn't. I want you my dear to do whatever it takes, to get that company to our name." Muzan ordered. Tanjiro looks away, grinning. "Ha. Yushiro...that asshole."Tanjiro gave a remark. Tanjiro gets up from his chair, walking around laughing saying "Never knew I will get to see the day he is at his weakest. That asshole would always look down on me, look at how things have turned. Hahahaha!"

Yushiro exits his building, looking at the paperwork... "The business is going to end in a few days...got damn it."Yushiro thought to himself. He packs up to leave, but the moment he looks up, his face changes...Tanjiro is standing there with a grin.. They talk with each other in the environment of Yushiro's home.

Upon entering, Tanjiro looks around. Nodding being awed by the place, before relaxing on the comfy sofa. Yushiro pours tea. "It's been awhile since I last saw you isn't it?" Tanjiro asked. Yushiro comes over with the drinks and they have a conversation.

Yushiro: Yes. Alot of things have happened, since I was gone back in 1912. The last thing that I would expect is to see you here in 2023.

Tanjiro: Yes, things have changed. It was Muzan that gave me the life I have today. Without him, I wouldn't be able to live the life I have now.

Yushiro stop moving, Tanjiro's words stop him on his tracks. He looks up.

Yushuro: Muzan made you a demon?

Tanjiro: *Nods* oh of cause. He is my king that I love truly. No matter what I do, I feel like I have a fatal connection with him. I can't get rid of it. I just really love him alot.

Yushiro: You even....You fell in love with the man that turned your sister into a demon. You were the one that sort revenge on him...How could you?

Yushiro stands up in anger and in disbelief. Tanjiro looks away, sipping the tea calmly.

Tanjiro: Like I said, things have changed. *Turns to Yushiro* So should you.

Tanjiro stands up, looking at Yushiro who is showing his fangs. Yushiro's anger is showing, veins popping out.

Tanjiro: All this time of fighting, shouldn't you be trying to find a way to get your business back? No matter what you do, truthfully, Muzan will always win. Just give in!

Yushiro: I am trying to find a way. I don't need him.

Tanjiro: Well, there is an obvious route for you to take. You should have taken it. Because no matter what you try, Muzan will lock you down. Look at how many times you try to do a loan and they don't accept your loan. Muzan was the one who block the access.

Tanjiro takes a step forward to Yushiro, their faces are close to each other.

Tanjiro: Muzan doesn't give alot of chances to people. So you should take it when you are given a chance by him.

Yushiro: No. I won't give it to him. I said it since 1912, and I say it again in 2023. I won't give in to him!

Silence....Everything is quiet...Until...

Tanjiro: Well...You see....we are....friends right? I am trying to help a friend out...I am willing to do whatever, to help a friend out. Maybe....Maybe there is something more that you want?

Tanjiro moves his hand and place it on Yushiro's crotch, groping it. Just feeling it. Yushiro blush alittle. Holding on to Tanjiro's shoulder due to the tingling sensation. Tanjiro hovering his face beside Yushiro's ear.

Tanjiro: This kind of feeling....It has been awhile isn't? Since you felt this...

Yushiro: Sto-

Tanjiro let go. He takes a few steps back, raising his hands as though he got caught. The teasing is done. Tanjiro laughs, taking the cup of tea.

Tanjiro: Think carefully...My lovely Yushi, on what you want and what is truly the best way for your business...if you decide to let Muzan take over...we will be seeing each other more often. Maybe I will be able to see you blushing as you moan again..Byeee Yushi~

Tanjiro takes a sip of tea, he grins before leaving the place. Yushiro flabbergasted by what he just went through, he settles on the sofa. In shock. Covering his face.

Tanjiro walks on the streets. His smile slowly faded, as he continues to walk down the busy streets at night. He stops at the traffic light, looking up to the night sky, it's a round moon. His eyes is fixated to the moon... "What had I just done....My demonic side is truly....evil....Is this really my fate...." He asked himself.He looks away, saddened. He continues to walk....and he bumps into Nezuko, who just came out of a library. His face brightens. Immediately asking Nezuko for coffee.  They settled at the window side of the cafe, drinking a warm glass of coffee.

Nezuko: You know..it would have been nice if we could feel how humans feel.

Tanjiro: Why is that so?

Nezuko: It's something about life. Life itself brought them so much troubles with the occasional sickness and what not, but they don't give up. They are all justice minded, trying to find the truth to something they so desire to know. That is why I wanted to feel how humans feel. I want to feel what is like with burning passion of not giving up.

Tanjiro: This is something that is hard to explain, but it's like, holding on to something you love, knowing very well that one day you will have to let it go. Then you decided, in order to make it worth your time, you cherish it. Understand every inch of it. Humans...are really a special being...

Their chat continue on through out the night.....

Tanjiro returns home after, he sits on the side of his bed, staring at the mirror...His reflection is looking back at him.

"All the things that I have done....Am I trying too hard to serve Muzan? I almost forgotten that I have a mission that I have to hold....everything that I do...I have a reason to and that is to gain Muzan's trust...but it will come to a point one day that my secrets will be revealed....Will he....love me the same...Or will everything shatter just like that..." He asked himself, looking away. Sighing. "But...The one that I am trying so hard to find the truth for...betrayed me by lying to me about the cure...Why should I care for those humans? I am a demon king afterall." He adds on, holding his chest.

"Am I that person who is holding on to everything...thinking that everything is going to be fine.......?"
