"I can hold you like this all day until I get an answer Makio." the voice said. "Who are these letters for?"

'I refuse to sell out Lord Tengen. And even if I wanted to, you have my mouth closed.' Makio thought.

Makio was completely restrained unable to speak or move freely. Suddenly the belt felt someone coming and raised Makio in the air tightening its hold on her, constricting and twist around her torso. "Make a sound, and I'll crush your organs as I snap you in half."

'Lord Tengen, please help me!'


Inosuke inches from Makio's room spots the food that was still untouched. 'I'm not even feeling the wall, and yet, I can feel a strong presence emitting inside of that room. There's something roaming around her room. It feels disgusting.' Not wasting time, Inosuke rushed into Makio's room. But the demon was faster, escaping with its hostage.

Inosuke barged in seeing the room a complete mess. 'It escaped! The windows aren't even open. So then how could it... The ceiling!' He grabs the ramen bowl and throws it at the ceiling. "I KNOW YOU'RE UP THERE, YOU BASTARD!!" The bowl makes impact with the ceiling, causing it to shake violently. 'It's moving!' Inosuke wasted no time running after it as it moves through the house. 'I can't let it get away! It's the only clue on finding the God of Festivities' wife!' 

He begins breaking through walls as he follows it, meeting with a customer. "Well now, aren't you a beautiful lady." Inosuke ignored the client's words and punched him and continued running, shocking the co-workers. The chase continues to the lower floor moving past everyone until he reaches the bottom of the house. 'I lost it! I even use Spatial Awareness, but this damn kimono is hampering my senses! Dammit! Everything was just getting in my way!' Feeling defeated in the cat and mouse chase, he decided to return to his room.

Elsewhere in the house the chaperone witnesses the hole and somewhat chaos throughout the house. "Maybe Inoko's been pushed too far." one of the attendants said. "Maybe it's best to let her take a break?" "Nonsense!" the Chaperone shouted. "We've been at the bottom for so long! And she could become the next Orian for our house! But after this catastrophe and punching a customer, we could be all out a job and a home! What she needs now is discipline!" She marches straight to Inosuke's room barging in. "Inoko!" She was surprised to find Inosuke with his legs over his head as tries to locate the demon that kidnapped Makio. "What are you even doing?! Do you even realize that you're damaging us?!" Inosuke ignored her as he focused on the where the demon would go.


(Tokito House)

It was nothing but swiftness as Tanjiro and Nezuko did their chores around the house as they did before knowing about the demon slayers. The house madam was shocked on how quick they were. "So, is there anything else we can do?" Tanjiro asked. "Well..."  Before she could say anything, Nezuko swiftly swapped her empty cup with a new one. "Here. A fresh cup of tea!" Nezuko said cheerfully. "Oh, you two don't really have to work this hard."

"Nonsense! I love to work until everything is done. So, what can we do next?!"

"Umm...."

"So, what's next? We wanna help!" Tanjiro said

"So, what's next? We wanna help!" Nezuko copied.

"So, what's next?!" They both say.

"Calm down and let me think!"

They were given the task to oil the doors if they were stuck. "The two of you are indeed really hard workers."

"Umm, excuse me madam?" one of the attendants ask for her attention.
