'Oops! I Stole the Isekai Lottery'-Chapter 82: Chaos in Asakusa: Blasting the MJ’s Head.
Chapter 82: Chaos in Asakusa: Blasting the MJ’s Head.
Tanjiro had never seen anything quite like this before. Asakusa, Tokyo, was a bustling city of lights, people, and noise. The Taisho era had never looked so alive.
"There are so many people... and what are those glowing signs?! Are they using electricity?" Tanjiro muttered, his eyes sparkling like a child at a festival.
Raja, walking beside him, chuckled. "Yes, Tanjiro, those are just electrical lights. I have to take you out often to experience the world"
As they wandered, taking in the sights, Tanjiro suddenly froze. A cold shiver ran down his spine as his nose twitched. He had caught a scent—a scent that was so disgusting it made tanjiro Puke.
"Big Demon..."
Before Raja could ask what was wrong, Tanjiro had already bolted forward, weaving through the crowd with the speed of a trained hunter.
Tanjiro skidded to a stop in front of a tall, well-dressed man. He reeked of blood. His pale, calculating eyes locked onto Tanjiro with mild curiosity.
Muzan Kibutsuji, the progenitor of all demons, stood before him. And to make matters worse, he was holding the hand of a woman and a small child. His family.
Tanjiro didn't hesitate. He unsheathed his sword, his rage burning hotter than ever. "You're the Demon Progenitor!" He lunged forward, blade aimed straight at Muzan's throat.
Muzan, unfazed, lifted a single clawed hand—but before he could strike, a dagger whizzed through the air, deflecting his claws with a metallic clang.
"Not today, MJ!" Raja declared, appearing beside Tanjiro with a cocky grin. He pulled out a small shotgun and aimed it at Muzan's forehead. "Let's see how well your head handles high-velocity destruction."
Before Muzan could react, Raja pulled the trigger.
The gun blasted Muzan's face into oblivion.
The street fell into a stunned silence. Pedestrians screamed. Tanjiro's jaw nearly hit the floor. Muzan's headless body wobbled in place and start to regenerate, and the woman and child shrieked in terror.
Raja, clearly enjoying himself, then delivered a Power full punch to Muzan's Regenerating headless body, sending it soaring into the sky.
Muzan, now reduced to a swirling mist of blood, escaped into the night.
Tanjiro clenched his fists shouts at the escaping Muzan. "MUZAN! I WILL BE THE ONE TO TAKE YOUR HEAD!"
The woman, now in shock, clutched her child tightly. "Wh-what just happened?"
Tanjiro turned to her, eyes serious. "Don't go home. Whoever is waiting there isn't your husband anymore."
She hesitated, but seeing the demonic form of her husband first-hand, she nodded, holding her child even closer.
Just then, the police arrived.
"YOU THERE! Drop your weapons!"
Tanjiro, still holding his sword, froze.
Raja sighed, casually twirling his gun before making it disappear. "Oh great, now we have to deal with the law. I hate bureaucracy."
Before the officers could approach, flower petals swirled around the area, blinding everyone temporarily.
Two figures emerged from the mist: Tamayo, a beautiful woman in an elegant kimono, and Yushiro, her grumpy, pint-sized assistant.
Tamayo's calm voice cut through the chaos. "Come with us. We have much to discuss."
Meanwhile, in a dark alley, Muzan Kibutsuji was boiling with rage.
He had been shot in the face and humiliated in front of his fake family.
Three drunk men approached, sneering. "Hey, pal, look at you! What's with the suit? You trying to impress someone?"
Muzan said nothing.
One man reached out to grab him.
With a single, swift motion, Muzan smashed his skull into the wall, shattering it like glass.
The second man barely had time to scream before Muzan kicked him so hard he flew 30 feet into the air, spraying blood like a fountain.
The third man, a woman, trembled. "P-please, I-I didn't—"
Muzan grabbed her by the throat and injected his blood into her veins.

She convulsed violently, her body mutating uncontrollably, before disintegrating into ash.
Muzan wiped his hands summoned two demons. "Yahaba. Susamaru. Find them. Kill them."
A memory flashed in his mind. The hanafuda earrings.
This was the Third time he had seen them.
Back at Tamayo's hidden clinic, Tanjiro and Raja watched as the mother and child were tended to.
Meanwhile, Raja had taken up the most important mission: teasing Yushiro.
"Wow, you're short! You sure you're not a child?"
Yushiro snarled, veins bulging. "I AM A CENTURY OLDER THAN YOU!"
Raja grinned, ruffling his hair. "Adorable."
Tamayo entered, shaking her head at their antics. "It's good to see Demon Slayers and demons coexisting peacefully."
Raja introduced himself and Tanjiro and asked about Tamayo origin.
Tamayo explained her origin and reveals she modified her body to survive on minimal human blood.
She has freed herself from Muzan's curse and even turned Yushiro into a demon.
Raja asked her how she escape the Demon Muzan connection and got the answer "Yoriichi Tsugikuni."
Tanjiro, ever the softhearted one, finally asked the big question. "Tamayo-san... can a demon be turned back into a human?"
Tamayo's eyes softened. "That's exactly what I've been researching."
Meanwhile, Yahaba and Susamaru were already on the hunt.
Yahaba, his eyes glowing with demonic kanji, smirked. "They won't escape."
Susamaru grinned. "Time for some fun!"
The hunt had begun.
