(In the morning)

{Third Person POV}

Tanjiro took The role of poison inspector... The point is, all you have to do is check to see if Muzan's food is poisonous.

"Taking care of your personal belongings? Is that enough?" - Tanjiro

"Yes, I heard that your superior {Muzan} brought you there himself. I think we should avoid being able to follow what we want." - a Random Lady

"Ah I see!" - Tanjiro

Then Muzan comes behind Tanjiro wearing his formal Black sokutai

"Have you finished your tour, Tanjiro?" Muzan says to Tanjiro, The lady flinches at the sight of Muzan, Tanjiro turns around and greets him "If you're done with your tour, Hurry up." Muzan says again to Tanjiro "Ah, Yes" Tanjiro Replied

*Formal wear... So I should stand out huh? There's a guy here who's like nothing Does that mean a lot of people live there?* Tanjiro thought while Muzan walked away, Tanjiro followed from behind Muzan

Another Lady walked up to Muzan, Informing him that the lady (From last night) Was dead

"I see..." Muzan says Tanjiro is still behind Muzan like an assistant. Muzan Walks away from the lady and Tanjiro follows from behind looking back at the lady

*no one opposes anything, Is this what it feels like to be able to obey?* Tanjiro's thoughts appeared again, *The smell of anxiety... I wonder why though..* Tanjiro's thoughts wander up again

"What's making you feel awkward? Is it because a traitor's follower appeared." Muzan says to Tanjiro while walking "What happened to the lady..?" Tanjiro asked, "Apparently, she didn't die from the poison, but instead hung herself" Muzan Replied, Tanjiro was shocked, also a little horrified at the fact she hung herself. "Don't worry, it's the woman who got hurt. The fact that you guessed the poison must have spread." Tanjiro gets shivers down as he listens to Muzan, "You're not wrong Tanjiro, You helped me.".

(Hours later, it becomes night)

Muzan gets on his bed (yaedatami) and sits up while talking to Tanjiro

"They're women like mud dolls trying to overthrow their mother." Muzan says, "Below the surface of the water is muddy water, There are many convenient ones, "I'm overflowing with thoughts of 'I should die'. What should I do? What can you do" Before Tanjiro can reply, Muzan throws laundry at Tanjiro, "Clean. A better place to be in this bedroom, etc." Muzan says. "Ah I see! So should I do cleaning, Laundry, Cooking, Bath?" Tanjiro says with sparkles, Muzan replies with slight annoyance. "It's noisy, Quiet down, I'm going to rest." Covering his body with the blanket.

Tanjiro is cleaning the floor, cleaning the stained blood while whistling as Muzan is Sleeping, Tanjiro is confused about how is there stained blood on the floor in the first place.

"Ah, Muzan? Is this bloody stain thing related to your disease?" Tanjiro asked while looking at Muzan, He smelled something near Muzan, He tried to take a closer look.

Tanjiro saw a little pouch next to Muzan while sleeping, Smells like hemp in the pouch. Tanjiro grabbed the small pouch to take a closer look, He was beside Muzan When Tanjiro picked up the little pouch, Muzan's eyes went open and he got annoyed and tried to take back the little pouch from Tanjiro

"Hey, hey, hey! I just wanna ask what's this beside you?" Tanjiro asked while Muzan is trying to get the pouch back "It smells like hemp! Do you often use this when sleeping?" Tanjiro says, Muzan just replies with growling and tries to take it back. "If you become addicted to it, you will get a worse disease!" Muzan and Tanjiro are rolling on the floor while Muzan growls more, "And Please take a bath!" Tanjiro says.
