Anime Crossover: My Cheat Code is Myself

Although the two-story duplex house, which is part of the surface building, is not small, it seems rather insignificant compared to the basement, which is the main building.

Rather than saying that the two-story building on top is the main structure, it would be more accurate to say that a house was specially built on top to conceal the entrance to the basement.

The design of such a massive basement was certainly not just for fun.

With the help of other worlds, primarily the world of Ainz Ooal Gown, Xia Yan installed many things in this basement that were beyond the development level of this era.

It is specifically used to research various drugs targeting Muzan, as well as drugs that allow demons to successfully overcome sunlight and so on.

At this moment, the basement was not empty.

Two women who looked elegant, mature, and beautiful... or more accurately, female ghosts, were wearing white lab coats and conducting some kind of research.

Both had pale purple eyes and long, jet-black hair.

She simply had hair cascading down her back like a waterfall, adorned with pink-edged, emerald-green butterfly hair clips on either side.

The other one is parted in the middle and combed into a large, low bun, which is secured with a flower hair clip.

It was Tamayo, the female ghost who was abducted by Natsuhiko, and Kanae Kocho, the former Flower Pillar of the Demon Slayer Corps, who has now become a demon.

"...Success!"

Upon hearing Tamayo's voice, Kanae, who was also busy, put down her work and went to her side.

At that moment, Tamayo was holding a test tube in her hand, and the liquid inside shimmered with a beautiful luster under the light.

She had clearly just been conducting research experiments on some kind of drug.

And now it has succeeded.

"Is this the potion that can break Muzan's control over the other demons...?"

Looking at the test tube held in Tamayo's hand, Kanae Kocho murmured to herself, a joyful expression on her face.

Although she had become a ghost, the gentleness and kindness in her heart had not disappeared, and she still hoped that ghosts could coexist peacefully with humans.

Therefore, after being taken home by Natsuhiko, she and Tamayo hit it off immediately.

Through Xia Yan's efforts, they became best friends for a lifetime.

Having done extensive research on medicine himself, he worked alongside Tamayo, following Natsuhiko's instructions, to research medicines targeting demons.

This includes, but is not limited to, drugs that turn demons into humans, drugs that free demons from Muzan's control, drugs that cause Muzan to age rapidly, various poisons that can work on Upper Rank demons, and various antidotes.

"Hmm, although it hasn't been tested yet, it seems to be just as I imagined. It should be able to free the demon from Muzan's control."

Tamayo skillfully separated the medicine from the test tube and placed it into a container, a happy smile on her face.

Although she herself possesses the ability to modify demons' bodies, thereby freeing them from Muzan's control.

However, that's not something that can be done easily; it requires extremely complex modifications.

Now, with the help of Kanae Butterfly, after two years, they have finally condensed all those complicated methods into a single potion.

"Then let's go tell Xia Yanjun this good news..."

Although she already knew the outcome, Kanae still smiled happily after receiving confirmation from Tamayo.

After the two women finished packing the medicine, they prepared to report their results to Xia Yan.

Just as I reached the elevator door, it opened.

Xia Yan stepped out of the elevator, holding Kui Zhi who was already sticking out her tongue and rolling her eyes.

"You two have arrived at just the right time..."

The sky gradually darkened.

However, the renovated basement was still brightly lit, and although there was no sunlight, it was no different from daytime.

You can even see the beautiful scenery outside by opening the window.

Of course, those are just fake photo projections, inspired by the Hive from Resident Evil.

Having just finished a battle, Xia Yan leaned against the headboard, feeling refreshed. Lying beside him were two female ghosts, Kanae and Tamayo, who were stuffed and their eyes were rolling back as they tried to digest their food.

As for the sunflower branches

Due to its weak combat power, it barely went through the motions and was already unconscious again after less than two rounds.

I had just woken up a few minutes ago, and I staggered upstairs to cook.

Even if she didn't cook, the children wouldn't go hungry when they came home from school, since the Butterfly House was less than two meters to the left of Xia Yan's house.

As a medical facility for the Demon Slayer Corps, it has professionals responsible for providing meals to those recuperating there every day.

It's just that Aoi herself really enjoys cooking for her family and eating together.

In fact, the children usually eat breakfast at the Butterfly Mansion. Tanjiro and Nezuko sometimes have lunch there as well. Aoi Twelve is basically only responsible for dinner.

There are two reasons.

Firstly, although the Butterfly Mansion was originally the ancestral home of the Butterfly family, after it became a medical facility for the Demon Slayer Corps, the surrounding environment underwent a series of changes, making it quite secluded.

Our location cannot be revealed casually.

Therefore, every day when the children go to school, there are special "hidden" members who blindfold them and carry them out on their backs.

For this reason, Xia Yan even gave a raise to the salaries of the few members of the Hidden faction who took their children to school every day.

Since starting school, in order to sleep in longer in the mornings, the three children, Takeo, Hanako, and Shigeru, have been living in the Butterfly House.

She wakes up, eats breakfast, takes her lunchbox and is delivered directly to school. She's also picked up after school in the afternoon. She's living a pretty good life.

Secondly,

After marrying into Xia Yan's family, Mrs. Kui Zhi would often find herself unable to get out of bed in the mornings, and every now and then she would work overtime and sleep until noon.

So even if they wanted to prepare breakfast, they were powerless to do so.

So much so that Mrs. Aoi would occasionally have the thought that she should become a demon like Kanae and Tamayo.

Of course, she was just thinking about it.

After all, Xia Yan now has three wives, two of whom are ghosts, so there are clearly more ghosts than women.

Fortunately, Shinobu Kocho can be considered half a help, which can balance things out a bit and help relieve some of the pressure on Aoi.

After all, the sister-in-law is only half of the brother-in-law's butt.

Because her older sister was locked in the basement by Natsuhiko, Shinobu Kocho worked hard every day, with the help of Natsuhiko's diligent teaching and assistance.

Success was achieved last year by defeating fifty evil spirits.

She took over her sister's vacant position as the "Flower Pillar" and became the "Insect Pillar".

Then, when she challenged Xia Yan to take back her sister's care, Xia Yan pinned her to the ground and spanked her for half an hour.

Realizing the disparity in strength, he decided to take a roundabout approach, attempting to lure Kanae back by seducing Natsuhiko. However, he failed to seduce her and ended up getting himself into trouble instead.

From then on, his attitude toward Xia Yan became strange.

She stopped clamoring to take her sister back from Xia Yan.

He would occasionally come to spar with Xia Yan.

However, he would always leave after the sparring session and rarely interacted with Xia Yan. He would even avoid him at all costs, as if he were treating him like a toy to be used and then discarded.

She has the ruthless, heartless charm of a woman who dumps her boyfriend without a second thought.

The frequency has been increasing, from once a month at the beginning to at least once a week now.

I estimate it won't be long before it becomes scummy again.

Then Kanae and Shinobu can continue to be best friends for a lifetime.

Just as Xia Yan was pondering how to fulfill the promise of being best friends for life, Kanae and Tamayo, having digested a portion of the life essence, also regained consciousness.

"You're awake..."

Kanae and Tamayo didn't reply; they simply nestled on either side of Natsuhiko's chest, exuding a languid aura.

After a while, Zhu Shicai lazily picked up the white coat that was lying on the side of the bed, took out a bottle of medicine from his pocket and handed it to Xia Yan.

"Xia Yanjun, this is the potion you wanted that you can carry around and that will allow demons to break free from Muzan's control."

"Is it finished yet?"

Xia Yan casually took the potion that Tamayo handed him and examined it for a moment.

Under the light, the pale purple potion shimmered with a beautiful luster, looking somewhat like litmus solution.

"The test was just successful this afternoon."

"Since it was successfully made this afternoon, why is it only being brought out now?"

Hearing Xia Yan's words, Zhu Shi rolled her eyes at him in annoyance.

"Kanae and I were originally planning to tell you this news, but you dragged us along and we've been messing around ever since..."

"Ha! So you mean it's all my fault?"

Before Tamayo could finish speaking, Natsuhiko flipped her over and pinned her down again, bracing himself on his hands beside her and looking down at her with predatory eyes.

"I'm absolutely certain I'm not wrong! It seems you two need to be punished for not realizing that!"

Kanae, who sensed something was wrong, quietly moved away, trying to leave this place of trouble, but was pulled back by Natsuhiko.

"Isn't Kui-zhi still waiting for you to come up for dinner?"

"You two look more delicious now."

"Wait...wait a minute, I've only digested a little bit of what I ate, and I'm already full..."

"Then let's store it and digest it slowly..."

……

The punishment activities continued until midnight.

During this time, Kui Zhi, who had finished cooking, came downstairs to call Xia Yan upstairs for dinner, but found that the battle was too chaotic and far beyond her ability to intervene.

Even bystanders risk being affected.
