Chapter 531 shows this reaction.
Yuko is gone.
There are no more memories of her here.
The memories she shared with others are deeply etched into her mind and will never be lost.
Over the decades, Yuko's physical strength as a demon has been greatly diminished.
Despite having eaten and drunk tea with Shinobu and others over the years, human food only provides her with a taste sensation, and it is difficult for her to regain her strength.
But this is far from death.
She is so powerful that she seems to defy aging.
……
"Ding dong~"
The doorbell of a charming little villa rang, and a boy who looked like a cute young boy opened the door.
“You…” Yushiro saw Yuko, opened his mouth as if to say something, but suddenly stopped, then silently nodded to her and stepped aside.
As Yuko entered the house, she bumped into Tamayo, who was walking towards the living room after closing the laboratory door.
The two stood there in silence for a while, then Tamayo instructed, "Yushiro, please brew a pot of tea."
"Yes, Lady Tamayo." Yushiro glanced at Ikuko again, then nodded hesitantly.
Tamayo gestured for Ikuko to sit down, and the two sat down on the sofa in the living room.
After a long silence, Tamayo finally spoke with a sigh, "Time really flies..."
Like a puppy that has been abandoned and can't find its way home...
This was Tamayo's first reaction upon seeing Ikuko.
This is her and Yushiro's territory, and she will never allow humans to enter. Even if they need a supply of blood on a regular basis, she will choose to go on house calls with Yushiro instead of bringing people here.
Upon hearing the doorbell, which hadn't rung for decades, Tamayo, who was still conducting research in the laboratory, immediately understood everything.
“Yes, in the blink of an eye, your family has acquired quite a few high-tech pieces of furniture.” Yu Zi broke her silence and looked around. “Is that a television? You guys are living too comfortably!”
"By the way, can you receive a signal here?"
Tamayo was silent for a moment: "Yushiro's ability is only to obscure people's senses, not to create another dimension."
This place actually exists in reality, but it has been well concealed by Yushiro's Blood Demon Art, making it difficult for ordinary people to find and enter.
"what is this?"
"hair dryer."
"what about this?"
"Micro-wave oven."
Yu Zi patted her head, feeling like it was full of bean curd residue: "Ah, now that you mention it, I think I vaguely remember it."
"Speaking of which, what's the story behind this painting? Who is the woman in the painting? She looks a bit like you." Yu Zi then stared at a huge portrait displayed on the living room wall.
Tamayo glanced at the portrait, her lips twitching slightly: "That was... drawn by Yushiro when he was bored."
"Oh~" Yu Zi drawled, "I didn't expect this guy to have such an artistic flair."
"I feel like there's no future in following you as a doctor. Being an artist might be more lucrative. Even someone like me, who has no artistic talent, thinks it's beautiful. It would definitely make you famous."
Tamayo: "..."
After a moment of silence, Tamayo's lips parted slightly: "Ikuko..."
"Hmm." Yuko turned around while fiddling with the items in the living room.
Tamayo calmly raised her purple eyes: "Cry if you want to..."
Yuko fiddled with an exquisite vase with one hand, her golden eyes calmly meeting Tamayo's gaze. After a moment, she said, "What's with all the crying? Isn't it a bit too embarrassing?"
She turned her head and twirled the vase in her hand: "Aren't humans just like that?"
"Brief yet dazzling and brilliant."
"I have nothing to regret..."
Tamayo: "..."
Just because you have nothing to regret doesn't mean you won't be sad... you idiot...
Tamayo didn't call her out on it, but simply went along with what Ikuko had just said, "That's called artistic talent, Ikuko~"
Yu Zi turned around, giving an embarrassed smile: "Slip of the tongue, just a slip of the tongue~"
It wasn't a slip of the tongue at all; it was clearly an attempt to clumsily conceal his true feelings.
Tamayo sighed inwardly again.
"Lord Tamayo, Ikuko, the tea is here." At that moment, Yushiro came over with a tray.
Yuko picked up her tea and took a sip, then casually waved her hand: "Hey, Yushiro, I suddenly have a craving for fried rice. Go make me some."
“…Okay.” Yushiro nodded slightly without saying a word.
Yuko looked over in surprise: "Huh? You just agreed like that?"
Yushiro turned his head and met Yuko's golden eyes.
Then he tentatively asked, "Then..."
His face visibly contorted into a ferocious expression.
"Stupid woman! If you want something to eat, get it yourself!"
Yu Zi paused for a moment, then clapped her hands with a smile: "Yes, yes, that's exactly the reaction."
Tamayo gently touched her forehead, looking like she had a headache.
Could it be that the child couldn't handle the shock and went insane?
The ferocity on Yushiro's face vanished in an instant, his lips twitching slightly: "So, do you want to eat it or not?"
Yu Zi's smile faded slightly, and she slumped onto the sofa: "Forget it, I'm thinking of losing weight lately."
What the hell do I want to lose weight?!
He had never seen a ghost that could become fat by eating human food!
Yushiro muttered a few complaints to himself, and then sighed inwardly.
Although Yushiro usually only has Tamayo in his eyes, as one of Ikuko's few... only two ghost friends, he just looks like a child but doesn't have the personality of a child, and he knows very well what Ikuko has been through.
So, human affairs are really troublesome; people like him and Lady Tamayo don't need to worry about these things.
Yushiro is different from everyone else. He didn't become a demon because of Muzan. He simply became a demon naturally because he was seriously ill and in love with Tamayo.
It could be said that he didn't really care about being human; as long as he could be with Tamayo, he didn't care what he was.
If Yuko knew what he was thinking, she would probably feel envious.
I wish she thought the same way.
Unfortunately, unlike Tamayo, Shinobu was destined to die as a human.
After sitting there for a while, Yuko stared blankly at the ceiling and murmured, "They're gone, everyone's gone."
Not just Shinazugawa, Kanae, Shinobu... but everyone...
Tamayo glanced at the clock. Ikuko had arrived in the evening, so she said, "It's getting late. Yushiro, go and tidy up Ikuko's room."
Yuko turned her head in surprise: "Don't you guys eat dinner?"
"What would you like to eat, Yuko?"
Now it was Yuko's turn to be in a dilemma. She frowned and said, "Hmm... it doesn't seem like there's anything I want to eat."
Then what are you talking about?
Yushiro really wanted to say that.
If he hadn't seen you were in a bad mood, he definitely would have said something sarcastic or two.
