Chapter 34: Kagaya Ubuyashiki
The journey to the Demon Slayer Headquarters from his home took 6 hours, at which time it happened to be night. The moon in the starless sky looked very beautiful and charming.
At this moment, El walked through the corridor of a room that was directed to where the Demon Slayer Leader, Kagaya Ubuyashiki was by his two daughters named Kanata Ubuyashiki and Kuina Ubuyashiki.
Kanata Ubuyashiki has pale, light skin and a pair of large, dark eyes. Her hair is shaped into a blunt white bob haircut similar to her other sisters and brothers.
The girl wears a purple Edo komon kimono with white robes underneath, wearing a black obi with white obiage and pink obijime, completely identical to her twin sister Kuina.
As for Kuina, as described, Kuina Ubuyashiki has similar features to the rest of her family, pale white skin with a pair of large eyes. Her hair is a white bob cut, but with bangs slightly covering her eyes.
Kuina wears a purple floral Edo komon kimono with a white robe underneath. She also wore a black obi, with a white obiage underneath and a pink obijime.
Not long after, finally the three of them, El, Kuina and Kanata arrived at a large park with green grass and a wisteria tree standing in the middle of the park.
Under the wisteria tree, there was a man standing looking at the tree. The man seemed to be waiting for El for a long time while looking at the purple wisteria flowers that were blooming.
El frowned, familiar with the appearance of the man's back. No, obviously El recognized him very well, the man's name was kagaya Ubuyashiki.
"Thank you for delivering our special guest." the man said in a calm tone of voice that was smooth and gentle, but very wise.
Hearing the man's voice, Kanata and Kuina looked at each other and glanced at El for a moment, then turned to retreat from the place. The two twin girls let El and the man talk one-on-one.
"Are you Kagaya Ubuyashiki?" El asked in a calm tone of voice, yet filled with caution like a snowball rolling from the summit of Mount Everest.
The man smiled at El's words. "As expected of someone from that place. Or, can I say not from this world?"
Hearing the words 'a person from that place, or not from this world' as soon as possible, El immediately held the Nichirin's handle, preparing to slash Kagaya Ubayashi's head on the spot, if necessary.
Because El understood that Kagaya's words indirectly referred to the existence of the Rencarnation Room and Beyonder. Especially an existence that is not from this world.
"Take it easy, I have no ill intentions towards you or to dig up more information about the place." Kagaya said in a calm tone of voice.
As soon as Kagaya turned around, she faced El face to face. Finally El could see Kagaya's face and appearance from the front.
Kagaya had light skin and shoulder-length black hair. He had the mark of a curse that was slowly killing his, that also made his skin look like it was rotting over his left eye area, making it a little difficult for Kagaya to see.
The curse mark was lavender in color. Actually, the curse mark was a factor of a genetic disorder caused by a distant blood relative, Kibitsuji Muzan becoming an progenitor of demon.
Meanwhile, Kagaya wore a plain black kimono tied with a tan-brown obi over a white juban. He also wore a calf-length white haori with a unique design of gradations of purple and salmon pink flames rising from the tip to halfway up the sleeves.
"Why should I calm down?" El said this with a coldness that seemed to make the atmosphere around drop dramatically.
"Didn't I tell you?" said Kagaya smiling gently.
"I have no ill will towards you, do I? If I had, there would have been many demon hunters around and you yourself were escorted by the Hashira." Kagaya said that with a gentle smile growing on her face.
For a moment, El was silent, thinking that what Kagaya said was true. If he had bad intentions from the beginning, Hashira and the demon hunters would have arrived and arrested his from the moment he arrived.
In fact, the corridor was very quiet all the way. And moreover, the ones who escorted his to Kagaya Ubuyashiki were his two 8-year-old twin daughters.
However, even if it was Hashira or even other Demon Hunters who escorted his, they were not El's opponents.
Obviously, all these factors were no threat to El who was already almost as strong as Yoruichi, without the Demon Slayer Mark. If he had gotten the Demon Slayer Mark, El would be as strong as Yoruichi.
El relaxed her vigilance and walked over to where Kagaya was without turning around. The right hand holding Nichirin's grip was released.
"So, what is Oyakata-sama's purpose for committing such a dangerous act?" El said that with a hint of mockery in it.
"Oyakata-sama clearly knows, right? I can easily erase the Demon Slayer's existence?" Then El looked at Kagaya with a gaze that seemed capable of freezing the ocean in a single glance.
The night breeze and the wisteria tree were silent witnesses to the fate of the Demon Slayer corps.
If the answer from Kagaya Ubuyashiki was unsatisfactory or not expected, it was possible that El would immediately finish him off to cover the traces of the Rencarnation Room's existence.
Although El doesn't like to kill, but somehow after getting the ability of Six Tomoe Rinnegan, for El killing is not much different from breathing.
However, on several occasions El can still show the moral side of humanity. Like compassion when killing infected and even Demons.
It is true, apart from the Beyonder no one can find out information about the Rencarnation Room. And, if there is a Beyonder who reveals information about the Beyonder or the Rencarnation Room, then he will be immediately destroyed.
Even if that person was the ability to read minds or see the future, they cannot know information about the Rencarnation Room.
Therefore, El should not have to worry about her existence being known by others, as long as he did not voluntarily reveal information about the Rencarnation Room and the Beyonder.
However, what El was worried about was not that, but the problems that would arise in the future. It was possible that in the future many people would come and disturb her while she was on a mission in this world.
Kagaya smiled gently and looked back at the nearby wisteria tree. "If you do that, what's the point of being one of my children, in the demon extermination cops?"
"I thought joining as one of my children was one of your goals, or wasn't it?" said Kagaya returning El's question.
Turning his eyes to the wisteria tree just as Kagaya did, then El shook his head lightly. "I can't answer that, but you are well informed, Oyakata-sama."
"I am grateful for your praise." said Kagaya without turning to El.
"So, what's your purpose in revealing something that will definitely be very dangerous?" El asked out of mild curiosity.
"Just making sure, our goals are the same." Kagaya said that casually.
"Right, our goals are the same." El's expression suddenly became serious. A little killing intent was sticking out from within his. "That is to finish off Muzan Kibitsuji. I'll make sure to take his life."

(I tried to make Kagaya able to communicate easily with the other person and a bit of crunchy comedy, so that in the world of kimetsu no yaiba, El is not too serious. I hope you like it)
