Still Muzan POV

In the "morning"

After I silently got dressed, and only my tie was left, I noticed Enmu starting to wake up. I quickly tie the tie (💀), and walk over to him, gently caressing his head as he starts opening his eyes. "Good morning~" I say quietly. He covers the light from his squinting eyes with one hand. "Good morning~" he says, his voice barely above a whisper.I lean a little closer to his face. "Did I wake you up?" "No" he answers. "Okay then~" I say, then lean down and kiss his forehead. "I have to go take care of something, you just stay here, make yourself comfortable, I'll be right back, it won't take long." I tuck his hair behind his ear. "Alright~" He smiles at me, slowly getting used to the light, but still squinting. I then give him a kiss on his lips. "Goodbye love~" I say, as i slowly stand up. "Goodbye-" he says, slightly surprised about the nickname I gave him. I turn around and smirk as I walk to the door. He's so adorable~ As I walk out, I wave at him smiling one last time. He waves back at me with the hand he blocks the light with.
I eventually close the door behind me and head to Gyokko's room.
On the way, I put on a serious attitude while planning what am I gonna say to him. When I get there, I still have no clue, but I knock on the door anyways. His annoying, dreamy-wannabee voice answers me. "Come in~" I roll my eyes and take a deep breath. This will be a long one. I open the door, and step in. He looks up at me, flying around over his pot as usual, but as he notices me, he immediately lowers his head, and "bows" as much as it's possible for a genie, that does nothing like you wish, just brings good money. "Master~ What can I do to help you~?" Like you ever did. "Well" I clear my throat. "I just have a quick question." He looks up at me smiling. "Ah~ You came all the way to my room just for that~? How honoring~ You could've just teleported me to your office~ That makes me feel so special~" the last part is in his thoughts, but I answer that anyways, since I can't tell him about Enmu in my room. "You're not special at all. This is for personal reasons." He looks a little disappointed, but kinda emotionless, as always. "Oh~ I see~... Anyways, what's your question, My Lord~?" I sigh, as I start thinking how to put it again. "Well" that's a good start. "Decades ago, you told me about Enmu, you said he'd make a good demon, but he was only five or six, you remember?" He doesn't hesitate, he clearly remembers every part of it. "Yes, of course~" I clear my throat again. "Well, I would need the address of their house from that time." He looks at me confused, but is afraid to ask why. "Oh~ Well, I don't remember very clearly, let me think~..." I get annoyed by the long time it takes for him to recall the events, but I really need that information, so I wait. "Sorry, Master, but I don't remember the exact address~... But... I think it was at •••••••••• District~ (make up smth)" he answers proudly. "Alright. If the information you gave me is wrong, I will kill you" I say with a straight face, about to leave the room. "O-of course Master hehe~ As you wish~" he bows lower one last time, and I leave his room, finally. I sigh from relief. Shit, he's so annoying! I head back to my room. As I walk in the bedroom, Enmu is already awake, reading a book. A wide smile sits on his face as he looks up at me. "Oh, Muzan-sama~ You're back already?" he asks, as he puts the book down. "Yes, it actually didn't even take as long as I expected" I sit next to him in bed. "Oh yes, and I would need you to take off some demon slayers at •••••••••• District (😭). They're not very strong, so you should be able to defeat them" I don't know if I should tell him the truth. Of why I'm actually sending him there. He knows I want to give him his memories back, so there would be nothing bad about telling him. But it's late anyways. I already told him to kill the demon hunters. But what if it doesn't work and he doesn't find any demon slayers? Can I tell him after that? Nevermind, that's a problem of future. "When should it be done?" he asks, snapping me out of my thoughts. "If you could do it tomorrow night, that would be great" I answer smiling. "Of course~" he says, smiling widely. I smile back, and lay down next to him, embracing his shoulder. He hugs me too, and I kiss his head. I hope you won't change too much.

Enmu POV

The next night

After we both got dressed, I was about to head to •••••••••• District. Muzan-sama hugs me tightly, and kisses my head. I hug him back. It's a pretty long hug~ He then lets go of me and gives me an also long kiss. He wraps his arms around me one more time, burying his face in my neck. He lets go of me, and I step out the door. "Goodbye Enmu~ And take care~" he says, softly smiling. "I will~ Goodbye Muzan-sama" I wave at him, then Nakime teleports me to •••••••••• District. The streets are empty and quiet. That's strange. The demon slayers usually make a lot of noise. I start walking around the streets, looking for them. I can't even sense any humans around that aren't awake. Maybe they're just too far away...
The streets are dead silent. The only things I can hear are my footsteps and my breath. How far are they? I have to find them. I can't let Muzan-sama down. I walk into every small passage, every dark alley, but I can't find anyone.
As I'm walking, I see a house, that looks...familiar? There's some dark energy pulling me to it. What's with that house? All of them looks nearly the same. What's up with it? I want to know. I want to go inside. But I should focus on the demon slayers now... But the night just fell, I still have a lot of time... Plus he said they weren't strong, so it shouldn't take very long...
I start walking up to that one house slowly, still hesitating. I step on the porch. I walk up to the door, and grab the doorknob. Suddenly, as my hand touches it, I see a little kid, about seven years old, standing there, shaking, with a fearful look in his eyes, hesitating if he should go in. That kid looks familiar too. Is that....me?
