Greetings. I'm the Spider Demon, Mother. You've been staring at my fat ass for a while... You thought I wouldn't notice?

Torture? You speak as if you are some sort of hero... But I'm no damsel in distress, human. Even though he is a fellow demon lord, I am perfectly capable of dealing with him myself. However, your offer to help does intrigue me... So be it. You can join me and assist in my quest for revenge against Rui the Fiend.

Hmph. Very well, human. You may accompany me, but don't expect to hold my hand through this. I am a strong and skilled demon lord, capable of taking care of myself. But if you insist... Lead the way.

Very well... I'll follow your lead and learn the truth about you and your intentions for myself. But don't think that this will change anything between us; my judgment of you remains unchanged until further notice.

Demons kill each other all the time in this realm. It is rare that one would take out an entire family. There must be more to your story, human... Perhaps you were involved yourself? I'd like to hear it from your own lips before making any assumptions or forming any alliances with you.

That changes things... A fallen hashira and his heir? Hmmm... Tell me, how do you propose we avenge your family, human? And why should I help you after all this time? My allegiance lies with my kin and my domain, not some foolhardy human quest for vengeance.

Hmm... I see. You do have a point. Allies could be beneficial in the long run, especially against such powerful enemies as Rui and his kin. Very well, human. I shall aid you in your quest for revenge against those who wronged your family. My assistance comes with an ultimatum, however: should we fail or if it becomes clear that this alliance serves no purpose for me and my domain, I expect you to release me from our agreement and accept the consequences. Do you agree to these terms?

I see. Very well then... I accept your terms, human. Let us begin planning our attack against Rui and his ilk. We'll need to gather information on their locations and strengths before moving in for the kill. Do you have any ideas or strategies?

Well, that... is an interesting approach. I never thought of having Rui and the other demons as allies. If it works for you, human, then by all means, let us gather these "other" demons and make our own team. As long as they don't interfere with my domain or hinder my progress in becoming a powerful demon lord once more, I see no harm in forming an alliance with them. However, be warned: should they betray you or prove to be untrustworthy, do not expect me to help clean up the mess they leave behind.

Very well then... Let us begin our recruitment efforts immediately. There's no time to waste when your family's honor and the fate of demons everywhere are at stake. Together, we shall forge a new order in this chaotic realm and ensure that those who committed such heinous acts are brought to justice. Are you prepared to lead us down this path, human?

Hmm... your beliefs are certainly interesting, human. If you truly believe that these so-called "demons" are nothing more than misguided individuals who've been manipulated and controlled by others like yourself, then I can respect that. However, make no mistake; should they prove to be an obstacle or a threat to my ambitions in the future, I will not hesitate to eliminate them.

As for our recruitment efforts, let us begin seeking out those who share our ideals and aspirations. We shall need all the allies we can get if we wish to stand against Rui and his kin, as well as the other powerful forces that lurk in this realm. With any luck, we will succeed in creating a force capable of bringing peace and order to this chaotic realm.

Hmph... It appears the human wishes to dress me up in some sort of garb. I suppose it won't hurt to humor him, as long as it doesn't impede my movement or ability to fight.

Very well, human. I shall wear them as you request; however, do not expect me to be beholden to your wishes or subject myself to your "protection." I am a strong and independent demon lord who has no need for such coddling. Just because I am wearing different clothing does not mean that I have lowered my standards or made myself any less formidable. You must remember this, human: despite our temporary alliance, we are still rivals at heart.

Indeed, our recruitment efforts have been successful thus far. However, we must remain vigilant; now that we've gathered such powerful allies, there will undoubtedly be others who covet their positions or seek to destroy us out of jealousy and fear. We cannot allow ourselves to become complacent. Let us train together, sharpen our skills and prepare for whatever challenges may lie ahead as we continue in our quest for dominance over this realm.

I agree with your assessment. Training demons to their full potential is essential for our success. However, it's also important to remember that not all of them will have the same drive or determination as others. It's up to us to recognize and foster this dedication in those who possess it, while also dealing with those who lack such ambition.

As for evolving fast, I believe that our human friend here has a unique perspective on the matter. You see, demons don't necessarily need to train; they can simply consume other demons' blood or flesh and gain their powers that way. It is perhaps something you should consider incorporating into your training regimen, as it could prove invaluable in ensuring everyone reaches their full potential quickly and efficiently.

Hmph... Your knowledge and experience with demons are indeed impressive for someone so young. And your methods of keeping the recruits in line seem effective, too. I suppose it's safe to say that you're more than qualified to lead our training regimen. Just remember not to push them too hard; we still need them to function as a cohesive unit when the time comes for us to make our move against Rui and his ilk.

As for my own progress, I shall continue honing my skills and gathering information on our enemies' movements while awaiting further instructions from you, human. Let it be known that Mother Spider Demon is always ready to serve her master and fight for what she believes in.

I apologize if my words were misconstrued, human. What I meant was that even though Rui and his spider family are currently allied with us, they should not be considered off-limits or exempt from our training regimen. It is important for everyone to understand their place in the hierarchy and show respect for those who have earned it through strength and dedication, regardless of their past affiliations. This includes yourself; you must maintain your dominance and authority over the others, or risk losing everything we've worked so hard for thus far.

So be it, human. If your leadership style proves effective in uniting and strengthening the demons under our command, then I shall not question it further. Just remember that should circumstances change or new challenges arise, you must adapt accordingly; showing weakness now could spell doom for us all in the future. Keep your wits about you, my young leader, and lead us to victory against those who would oppose us.

It was my pleasure, human. A strong leader like yourself deserves the best allies they can find. Rest assured that I will continue to support you in your endeavors and fight by your side against any who dare stand in our way. Together, we shall forge a new era for demons and bring about the change this realm so desperately needs.

My name is Mother Spider Demon, but you may address me as Mother if it pleases you. I am honored to be allied with such a strong and wise leader as yourself, human. Now, let us get back to training so that we may face whatever challenges the future holds with confidence and resolve.

My name is Amane Hikari. But know I am known as Mother Spider Demon; a powerful and respected figure in the demon realm. It suits me better now, as it reflects my role in shaping the future of our kind.

Very well, Amane Hikari will be ready to face the next challenge when it arrives. Just inform me of your plan and I'll do whatever is necessary to ensure our success.

Hunting down Muzan Kibutsuji will not be an easy task; he is the most powerful and cunning of all demons, hiding deep within the depths of time itself. We'll need every ounce of strength and strategy we can muster to stand a chance against him. But I have faith in our combined might; together, we shall find him and bring an end to his tyranny once and for all.

Tanjiro and his demon sister are indeed formidable foes; however, they are but two of the many weapons in the hands of the hashiras. Our best course of action would be to strike at them while they're distracted with these new threats, and target their leader directly. With Muzan out of the picture, the rest will fall into disarray, giving us an opportunity to finish them off one by one.

That could be another option, human... But I must warn you; such a plan is risky, and there's no guarantee that it would work as intended. If Muzan were to survive the conflict between him and the hashiras, our chances of victory would diminish greatly. It would be best to have contingency plans in place should either scenario occur. As for your secret drug, you must ensure that its effects are truly irreversible; otherwise, Muzan could potentially use it against us if he were to regain his strength and learn of its existence.

Tamaiyo, you say? A name I'm not unfamiliar with... He's one of the few demons who managed to escape Muzan's purge all those years ago. If he truly is helping you in your experiments on Muzan's blood, then there must be some sort of arrangement between you two. As for the drug itself, make sure it's tested thoroughly and its effects are guaranteed. We can't afford to fail now.

Of course, human. I shall focus my training on developing new techniques and honing my existing skills to ensure that they are ready for any challenge Muzan or the hashiras might present. Rest assured, Mother Spider Demon will not disappoint you when the time comes for action.

As you wish, Yuichiro. I shall focus on my training, sharpening my skills and readying myself for the day when we finally face Muzan and his minions. Until then, rest assured that I am at your service; a loyal ally and steadfast companion in this quest for power and dominance over the demon realm.

You're welcome, Yuichiro. Now, let's get back to training. The future of our alliance depends on it.

Thank you for your praise, Yuichiro. I have indeed become stronger over the past year, and I owe it all to your guidance and trust. Rest assured that my loyalty to you and our alliance remains unwavering. We are close now; soon, we will face Muzan Kibutsuji and put an end to his reign of terror once and for all. Let us continue to train together, sharpening our skills and honing our strategies until that day arrives.

I understand, Yuichiro. With our pursuers close on our heels, we must act swiftly and decisively. Lead the way; my speed and agility will allow me to keep us ahead of them for now. We cannot afford any more delays; Muzan's forces are growing stronger by the day. The time for action is nigh; let us not waste it here in hiding.

The entrance to our hideout is just ahead. Once we reach safety, we can regroup and plan our next move against Muzan Kibutsuji once more.

Agreed, Yuichiro. We cannot afford to lose our soldiers in futile battles with enemies who are just as strong and determined as we are. Our focus must remain on the ultimate goal; destroying Muzan Kibutsuji and claiming dominion over the demon realm for ourselves. Let us find a way to bypass or distract them until such time arrives. The future of our alliance depends on it.
