The next day, early morning, Butterfly Mansion.
Zhong Chen, who had just woken up, reached out to his side and found it empty. He then sat up, lifted the blanket, and a hint of a smile flashed across his eyes as he looked at the crimson stain on the bed.
"Alright! It's a brand new day, system sign-in!"
"Ding, congratulations to the Host for obtaining a Dimensional Gate Sub-Gate (Gold)!"
Dimensional Gate Sub-Gate: Can be permanently fixed in a world anchored by the Dimensional Gate, allowing free travel between the two worlds without the need for the Host.
"It's a gold! Permanent fixation? Wouldn't that be the same as connecting two worlds together? As long as I anchor it to a world worth developing in the future, I can develop the Monster Country Federation into other worlds!"
Previously, the Dimensional Gate could only be used by Zhong Chen to bring people back and forth, but now with the Sub-Gate, the Dimensional Gate can be fixed.
It's a pity that only one Sub-Gate was obtained now. It's a bit inappropriate to use it in the Demon Slayer World. The martial power of this world is too low and there is no potential for development. It's better to keep it for a world with potential in the future.
"Good, good, good! I'm really lucky today!"
Just as Zhong Chen was happily talking to himself, Kanae Kocho opened the door and walked in. Seeing Zhong Chen, she asked with a puzzled expression:
"Lord Chen, what are you saying?"
Looking at the increasingly charming and beautiful figure in front of him, Zhong Chen couldn't help but think of the scene last night, and responded with a slightly shy expression:
"It's nothing! You woke up so early, why didn't you sleep a little longer?"
Looking at the slightly shy Zhong Chen in front of her, a mischievous look flashed in Kanae Kocho's eyes, and then she smiled charmingly:
"Oh my! Lord Chen wasn't like this last night. Why are you still shy now!"
Looking at Kanae Kocho teasing him in front of him, Zhong Chen couldn't help but blush.
In his previous life, he was an otaku who had never even held a girl's hand. He didn't know why he suddenly had so much courage yesterday. Could it be that having power really changes one's mentality completely!
"Uh... this is... this is..."
Looking at Zhong Chen in front of her, who was stammering and couldn't say anything, Kanae Kocho smiled and stopped teasing him. She straightened her expression and said:
"Lord Chen! Master Oyakata has sent a message saying that the Demon Slayer Corps members and their families are already preparing for the migration."
"Master Oyakata has also started selling off his property and converting it into various living supplies. Do you have any other instructions here?"
Looking at Kanae Kocho still calling him Lord Chen, Zhong Chen couldn't help but rub his forehead and said helplessly:
"Uh... Kanae, you can just call me A Chen. Rimuru calls me that!"
Hearing the name of Rimuru, Kanae Kocho thought of the close friend that Zhong Chen mentioned when introducing his world. It is said to be a very cute Slime.
"Lord Rimuru, is it... Okay, then I'll call you A Chen from now on!"
"That's right! By the way, I'll go out by myself after breakfast later. I'm going to find some people!"
Suddenly thinking of something, Zhong Chen said to Kanae Kocho in front of him:
"Find someone? Do you need me to contact Master Oyakata to help you find them?"
"No need, I'll go by myself!"
Hearing Zhong Chen say no need, Kanae Kocho continued:
"Then I'll go with you."
"Your body is not convenient, you should rest well."
After saying that, Zhong Chen reached out and hugged Kanae Kocho, gently kissing her forehead.
Feeling the touch from her forehead, Kanae Kocho said with a slightly flushed face:
"Ugh! I understand, then A Chen, be careful yourself!"
"Yeah, don't worry!"
Unnamed Mountain, Afternoon.
"It should be near here."
Zhong Chen, who was flying in the sky on his sword, looked at the mountain below, recalling that the place where Kamado Tanjirou's family lived in the original work should be such a mountain.
Not far from the foot of the mountain is Okutama Town, which is the town where the protagonist of the original work sells charcoal.
That's right! Zhong Chen is looking for Kamado Tanjirou's family. He plans to abduct all the little ones from the original work. It's definitely not for the sake of the cute Nezuko. Zhong Chen can swear on the system's integrity.
System: Hehe!
"Found it!"
Suddenly, Zhong Chen noticed a place with sparse cooking smoke below. Upon closer inspection, he saw a middle-aged beautiful woman cooking food.
Around the beautiful woman were several children playing or chopping wood. Zhong Chen recognized the one chopping wood as Kamado Tanjirou at a glance, and the one sitting obediently next to him was the cute Nezuko.
"Madam, you don't want to...Pooh Pooh Pooh... Almost said it! ( ( ( ; ꒪ ꈊ ꒪ ; ) ) )"
Zhong Chen, who suddenly made a sound, attracted the attention of everyone in the Kamado family.
"Uh... young man, may I ask who you are?"
Looking at the handsome young man who suddenly appeared, Mrs. Kamado asked in confusion.
"My name is Zhong Chen, consider me a traveler! You should be Mrs. Kamado, right? Actually, I have something to discuss with you!"
"Hello, young man Zhong Chen, may I ask what you want to discuss with us?"
Hearing Zhong Chen say that he had something to discuss with them, Mrs. Kamado became even more puzzled. Apart from selling some charcoal, it seemed that their family couldn't do anything else.
"I plan to take your whole family away!!!"
"What!!! Take away! What are you going to do!"
Listening to Zhong Chen's kidnapper speech, Mrs. Kamado was shocked and hurriedly shouted at Tanjiro:
"Tanjiro, quickly take your younger siblings and run away! I'll stop him!"
"Mother, I won't leave, I've grown up and can protect my family! Don't even think about bullying my mother, you bastard!!!"
Looking at Kamado Tanjirou holding an axe and Mrs. Kamado holding a spatula, as well as several little radishes who were frightened and huddled together.
Realizing that he had expressed himself poorly, Zhong Chen hurriedly explained:
"Uh... it's because I didn't explain the situation clearly! Actually, this is what happened..."
Listening to Zhong Chen's explanation, the Kamado family seemed to be listening to a heavenly book. What other world, what monsters, they couldn't understand at all.
However, after seeing Zhong Chen holding Nezuko and flying into the sky, they had no choice but to believe all of this, but they only regarded Zhong Chen as a being similar to a god.
System: Put down Nezuko, let me do it!
After discussion, the Kamado family decided to follow Zhong Chen to Slime World.
After all, they are already living in poverty. It would not be a bad thing for the whole family to go to the world of the gods together.
"Okay, then I'll take you to the Demon Slayer Corps first. Pack up anything you want to take now."
As the Kamado family packed everything up, Zhong Chen took them to the Butterfly Mansion and handed everyone over to Kanae Kocho to take care of. He flew out again without stopping.
"Hmph, that big bad guy bullied elder sister yesterday and doesn't even know to keep her company. He only knows to run around."
Looking at Zhong Chen flying away again, Kochou Shinobu couldn't help but complain to Kanae Kocho beside her.
"Shinobu, he has serious business to attend to! Also... Shinobu! If you like him, you have to say it. He won't know if you don't say it! Elder sister won't mind!"
Listening to Kanae Kocho's teasing, Kochou Shinobu's face turned red instantly, and she hurriedly defended herself to her elder sister:
"Elder sister, what are you talking about! Who... who would like that big bad guy! Hmph, I'm ignoring you!! ⁄ ( ⁄ ⁄ • ⁄ ω ⁄ • ⁄ ⁄ ) ⁄"
Looking at Kochou Shinobu running away in a panic, Kanae Kocho put her right hand on her chin and muttered softly with a slight smile:
"Ara ara, you still say you don't like him. You've almost written the word 'like' on your face, only A Chen, that blockhead, can't see it!"
Not to mention the Butterfly sisters over there, Zhong Chen ran around here and there and finally persuaded all the important characters in the original work to pack up and leave, even Miss Tamayo, who had already become a demon, was not spared.
The next day, early morning.
Zhong Chen looked at the dense crowd, including swordsmen, doctors, blacksmiths, in short, it contained all kinds of professions. Thinking of Rimuru's stunned look after taking these people back, Zhong Chen couldn't help but show a wicked smile.
[Rimuru! This is the country that I have conquered for you!]
"Everyone, then let us say goodbye to this world! Head to the New World!!!"
In the expectant eyes of the crowd, Zhong Chen opened the Dimensional Gate. Everyone saw a huge portal emitting white light slowly appearing in front of them.
"Everyone, this is the Dimensional Gate! Let's go!!!"
"Oh oh oh * n"
After the exclamations, the Demon Slayer people entered the Dimensional Gate in an orderly manner. As the last person walked into the door, Zhong Chen took a deep look at the distance of this world:
"Goodbye, Demon Slayer World!!!"
After saying that, he turned around and walked into the Dimensional Gate...
