A Good Liar

Chapter 7

Samurai Demon

"Takashi-sama, you have stepped into the realm of your inferior." A demon dressed in black kimono while giving off a chilling aura said towards his superior.

So this is Ozu. The demon whom Muzan first created in this generation. Who as well killed a powerful demon hunter several days ago according to Muzan.

But his power level isn't superior to mine.

"What seemed to be in Takashi-sama's mind?" Said the demon once again upon feeling Takashi onto the area of his site.

"I gather reports from demons." Said Takashi

"I've been doing my tasks properly and steadily, Takashi-sama." The demon replied.

"Ozu, how does it feel to be praised by Muzan?" Asked Takashi towards the demon, Ozu.

"Telling you honestly, Takashi-sama. I've not been praised by the great one. All he did was turn me into a demon. I still have the curse he gave towards demons naturally. I only did was gather power by the high amount of blood he shared with me. But thank you for the honorable question." Ozu said and tried to recall his past memories with Muzan.

Indeed, Muzan didn't really prioritized Ozu. Ozu was a former samurai who's bloodline continued being a skillful warrior. Although his life became miserable because of a misconception. Resulting him becoming a demon. Even as a demon, he was still as skillful as his human life. That's why he managed to get stronger in a short period of time. Yet, he still was managed to get under the recently turned demon, Takashi.

Takashi is unable to consume human blood and flesh. Even human foods and human lifestyle he couldn't cope. The only thing that will keep him strong and powerful is to kill demons and extract their blood for himself. Mostly demons he killed are those who betrays Muzan which was plenty nowadays. They were the demons both Ozu and Tairuku turned into demons.

"I still couldn't comprehend the demons Ozu morphed were mostly into violating Muzan. Why is that?" Takashi didn't show any anger or annoyance, but Ozu knew Takashi was displeased by that fact.

As Muzan's subordinate, it was Ozu's responsibility to preserve the trust of his master. Fulfilling his desires and selfishly abuse one's power was his pride. Yet, he couldn't surpass the newly morphed demon Takashi.

"I'm truly sorry for the trouble they've caused you. What shall I do to please you?" Ozu knelt down, probably arrogantly. Even if he's Muzan's first subordinate in this generation he still dares to think himself almighty, baka.

Takashi was standling idly in his place. He just stood there coldly keeping his aura at its natural state. Concealing his true aura is an easy for a Demon Executioner like him. He should probably teach this bi– demon a lesson for provoking this superior.

"There's nothing much you could do for me. But keep the tasks Muzan gave you, that would please me." Takashi replied.

Ozu gave a sadistic smile. His button-like crimson eyes hid an unintelligible intent which is known to be related to a diabolical creature. Theories upon demons, that's what they describe with his distinctive crimson eyes.

"Your desire will be kept in between my hands. Thank you for the visit, Takashi-sama." Ozu smiled and watched as Takashi left his land.

I might not reach upon your title, I'll try my best to fulfill it. All I want is for the great one to recognize my abilities then I'll be able to replace you as a Demon Executioner.
