01x21 - Against Corps Rules
Posted: 03/04/22 17:17
Rui!
Rui!
What are you doing?
You can't come out.
I have a weak body.
I was born that way.
I never tried running before.
Even walking was painful for me.
Until Lord Muzan showed up.
How pitiful.
I shall save you.
My parents were not happy at all.
Although I was no longer weak,
I couldn't be under the sun
and I needed to consume human flesh.
How could this happen?
Look at what you have done, Rui!
I once heard a wonderful story.
To save his drowning son in the river,
the father paid with his life ultimately.
I was really touched.
How noble fatherly love is
and the bond between family.
The father who perished in the river
fulfilled his duty as a father perfectly.
But...
What my dad wanted was...
My dad wanted to k*ll me.
My mom only cried at the side.
She didn't try to protect me
from being k*lled.
Everything was fake, wasn't it?
The bond we shared between us wasn't real.
I'm sorry.
It seemed like she said something.
Could she still be alive?
I failed to give you a strong body.
I'm sorry.
After finishing that sentence,
my mom stopped breathing.
She died.
It's okay, Rui.
We'll die with you.
Driven by the anger
of almost being k*lled,
I couldn't understand my dad's words.
But my dad wanted to be the scapegoat
of all the homicides I committed
and die together with me.
At that moment, I suddenly understand...
what a true bond signifies.
However, on that night,
I severed it with my own hands.
Even so,
Lord Muzan still encouraged me.
Your parents' inability to accept you
lies at the root of this problem.
You need to be proud of your strength.
Other than accepting what he said,
I couldn't stand
what my hopeless self did.
Even though I knew I was at fault...
Day by day,
I couldn't stop missing my parents.
Even though I created a pretend family,
I couldn't fill the hollowness inside me.
In the end, I was too strong.
Nobody could protect or shield me.
The stronger I got,
the memory I got
when I was a human got blurrier.
What I wanted to do
was getting unclear.
No matter what I do,
I couldn't get it anymore.
In search of a bond,
I tried really hard to reach out,
but I could touch nothing.
Inside his small body,
there's a smell of massive sadness
that he couldn't withstand.
How warm.
A warm hand just like the sunlight.
I remember now.
It's so clear.
I really wanted to apologize.
I'm sorry.
Everything was my fault.
Please forgive me.
But a serial k*ller like me
will probably go to hell.
Dad, Mom, and I
are going to different places, aren't we?
That's not true.
Let's go together.
Even if it's hell.
Rui.
Dad.
Mom.
Rui.
We'll always be together wherever we go.
Everything was my fault.
I'm sorry.
I'm sorry!
Don't take pity on a man-eating demon.
Even if they looked like children.
He was an ugly monster
who has lived for decades.
For the victims to rest in peace,
so that nobody will be harmed again,
I'll still swing my sword
at the demon's neck without leniency.
But the pain they feel as a demon,
the regret they feel for their actions,
I won't tread on them
because demons were once humans.
Just like myself, they were once humans.
Please remove your feet!
He wasn't an ugly monster.
Demons are hollow creatures.
They are sad creatures.
You're...
What?
Why did you stop me, Mr. Tomioka?
You clearly said before
that you won't get along with demons.
What's going on now?
You're always like this.
That's why everyone hates you.
The medicine is so effective.
Lady Kocho's antidote serum.
Yes.
Plus, she mixed the concoction
in an instant after gauging the situation.
She's really amazing.
That guy too.
Do you mean him?
Thanks to him for defeating the demon,
the toxin circulation is reduced,
albeit slightly.
All right, this should be enough.
Everything is going smoothly.
At this rate, everyone can be saved.
But we must finish our work quickly.
I want to leave this place
as soon so possible.
I know.
Because this place is really smelly.
Mr. Tomioka, please move aside.
I...
I'm not disliked by people.
Well, I'm very sorry then.
It seems that you don't know
people hate you.
I'm such a bigmouth. Please forgive me.
Yes!
The one you're hugging is a demon.
It's very dangerous.
Please stay away from her.
You're wrong.
No, you're right.
Well, she's my younger sister.
She's my younger sister.
So...
I see. You're so pitiful.
Well...
I won't let her suffer any pain.
I'll help you k*ll her
with a gentle poison.
Can you still move?
Even if you can't move,
you better move with your will.
Carry your sister and run now.
Mr. Tomioka.
I'm sorry.
Thank you very much!
What you did is against
the corps' rules, right?
My whole body is so painful
and uncomfortable.
I feel like screaming my lungs out.
Keep going.
Keep going!
I guess I have no choice,
but to leave Demon Slayer Corps.
Although she's my biological sister,
a swordsman accompanied by a demon
will never be accepted.
Are you serious, Mr. Tomioka?
I can't believe a Pillar
will protect a demon.
Although you have the intention to do so,
I don't want to accompany you
and waste my time.
Well, have a good day.
Do you plan to catch up with me?
I don't mind you stopping me,
but don't forget about the other person.
My legs can't stop.
I must force my body to move.
I must run as far as I can.
Shit. What's this?
I used up all my energy on running.
Nezuko.
Demon Slayer Corps.
Run, Nezuko!
Hurry up, run!
Don't let them catch you!
Hurry--
Her body shrunk
and she turned into a child.
She keeps on running,
but she doesn't attack me.
What's going on?
It doesn't matter anyway.
I only have to slay
this demon as instructed.
Mr. Tomioka.
Are you listening to me, Mr. Tomioka?
To chase after the demon,
my att*cks are justified.
I don't think I went against the rules.
But your action is against the corps rules
because you got in the way
of a demon-slaying task.
What do you plan to achieve by doing so?
Please open your mouth and talk to me.
This is my final ultimatum.
At the very least, tell me your reason.
I remembered it was two years ago.
I don't think you should start
your story from so long ago.
Are you doing this on purpose?
Are you holding a grudge
because I said people hate you?
Listen up!
An order from the headquarters.
Capture Tanjiro and Nezuko.
Bring them back
to the headquarters immediately!
Tanjiro and the demon, Nezuko,
capture them and bring them back
to the headquarters instantly!
Tanjiro is wearing a thigh-length kimono
with a checkered pattern.
There's a scar on his forehead.
Nezuko is a young and female demon
biting a bamboo tube.
Bring them back instantly.
-Are you Nezuko?
-Bring them back instantly!
Bring them back instantly!
Tanjiro is wearing a thigh-length kimono

There's a scar on his forehead.
Nezuko is a young and female demon
biting a bamboo tube.
Bring them back instantly!
There's a scar on his forehead.
All right, let's capture him.
Did he break his jawbone?
How pitiful. Now, he has to be tied up.
What's wrong with this guy?
I don't know. I don't think he's a demon.
Is he a human?
He's wearing the corps uniform.
It's just a mask. He's human.
All right, let's bring him back.
Wow, he has some serious injuries.
But why is he hung here?
I couldn't do anything.
With my own strength,
I can't even defeat a single demon.
Maybe I wasn't the strongest.
TREATMENT COMPLETED
Layer by layer, they wrapped me up.
Who are they?
They are surely quick
at doing this clean-up.
Also, that girl.
Isn't she the girl from Final Selection?
Her hairband looks very similar
to the lady who wrapped us up.
Do we send these people
to Butterfly Estate?
Yes, send all the injured personnel
to our place.
I'll be responsible
for hunting down the demons nearby.
You guys can work in peace.
By the way, I heard about them before.
A cleanup unit of the corps, Kakushi.
After Demon Slayer Corps' battle
with demons, they will do the clean-up.
The members comprise of people
who lack swordsmanship and talent.
TREATMENT COMPLETED
The sun is up.
Wake up.
Hey, wake up now.
Wake up.
Hey, do you hear me?
Hey, damn you!
How long are you going to sleep?
You better wake up now!
The Pillars are standing in front of you.
I have recently been assigned
to the same mission as you, Mr. Tomioka.
Please reply to me at least.
Or are you still angry at me
for saying that you're hated?
Could you please say something?
A little gossip from the Taisho era.
I heard Kocho fears cats, dogs,
and any creatures covered in fur.
What are you saying out of the blue?
Since you didn't deny it,
am I telling the truth then?
You talk too much so everyone hates you.
-I'm--
-"Not disliked by people."
Please change your lines.
