Chapter 187 - Back to Training (1/2)

”On a more serious note, this demon will definitely end up becoming your responsibility.”

Elizabeth spoke with her face still flushed. Of course, her eyes had regained their icy clarity as she spoke calmly. As if her body wasn't overflowing with passionate scent and her snatch wasn't soaked in juices. Of course, Nik also decided to ignore the small puddle of sensational liquid that trickled down the spot where the two just made out with each other.

”It is not known how the demons can actually break Muzan's control. But until Yuriko, there has only been two existence.

Nezuko and another demon associated with us through the trading of information.”

”Another demon?”

Nik pondered on the implications while Elizabeth continued.

”Of course, she and her familiar are still under the strict observation while she stays in the capital.”

”And the Demon Slaying Corps is alright with this?”

”Of course, not. When I say you are a pillar, that means you are a pillar under my, Joestar's name. The pillars of the corps only harbor hatred for the demons but we do not.

We... have a more rational outlook on the situation.”

Elizabeth slowly formed her words and continued.

”Although, what I said was true... when it comes to helping the human society, the pillar's responsibility is of utmost importance.

And now, with the rank of pillar, you are entitled to may information and the rights to visit various places. Like... information on the other breathing techniques.”

Elizabeth smiled while Nik took a deep breath and finally spoke up.

”Wait, wait, wait.” He spoke immediately, a bit of anxiousness clear within his voice as Elizabeth eyes him curiously.

”Other breathing techniques would be a hindrance. I still have to master many techniques and honestly, even if I practice and gain a little bit of proficiency in each of the basic Elemental breathing, I wouldn't be using them all the time.”

Nik thought for a few moments and finally spoke with a sigh.

”Master—”

”Elizabeth.” Elizabeth corrected Nik as he nodded and continued.

”Elizabeth, there are somethings that you would have a definite need to be informed of. But right now, I can't divulge such topics... and with the things are, I need to practice on my existing techniques and become even more proficient in them before turning towards other techniques.”

”Important information?” Elizabeth questioned as Nik shrugged and spoke the open truth.

”Yeah.”

Nik nodded and continued.

”Either way, I would like to have a week for myself and finally focus on improving my own strength instead of my foundation... and also, I think that I may have some inkling on why Muzan's control did not cover Yuriko and Nezuko...”

Nik stated as Elizabeth frowned, still inclined to listen rather than interrupting the flow of the conversation due to her astonishment.

”Hamon... I think that's the answer. When I filled Yuriko's body with my own converted Hamon... I felt a slight resistance from her physique itself.
