Urokodaki Sakonji had said that the thing that could turn people into {demons} was Muzan Kibutsuji's blood.
So, how did Tamayo turn Yushiro into a {demon}?
Tamayo shook her head and said, "Muzan's blood can indeed turn people into {demons}. His subordinates, the Twelve Kizuki, also have this ability. But the reason why the Twelve Kizuki can also turn people into {demons} is actually because they consume the blood that Muzan has injected into their bodies. Essentially, it's still Muzan's blood that's working to turn people into {demons}."
"I was turned into a {demon} by Muzan, so my body also has Muzan's blood. But to stop eating people, I modified my body a long time ago. I weakened the influence of Muzan's blood, completely escaping Muzan's curse and control."
"Because of this, it took me two hundred years to successfully turn Yushiro into a {demon}."
After hearing Tamayo's words, Ryuji understood.
It was like Muzan Kibutsuji had a hundred eggs. Then, he divided the eggs among his twelve subordinates. Those subordinates could also divide the eggs among others.
The more eggs you have, the stronger you should be.
The lower-level {demons} like those on Mount Natagumo were clearly just mass-produced products that were given some egg yolk.
Because the {demons}' growth potential is unlimited, the more people they eat, the stronger they become. So, the difference between eggs and egg yolk is just a matter of initial strength level and doesn't limit their future development.
Perhaps if a {demon} was given enough people to eat, it could even replace Muzan Kibutsuji as the Demon King. After all, Muzan Kibutsuji took over a thousand years to grow to this point. He must have eaten countless people over those thousand years.
The existence of the Demon Slayer Corps greatly restricted the growth potential of those egg yolks.
Besides that, Ryuji also heard some other interesting key information from Tamayo's words.
The Twelve Kizuki, based on the literal meaning, should be the title of Muzan Kibutsuji's subordinates. Twelve should represent twelve {demons}.
Since Tamayo knew this, could it be that she was once a member of the Twelve Kizuki?
Tanjiro, hearing that Tamayo had taken two hundred years to turn Yushiro into a {demon}, was shocked and stammered again.
"Two… two hundred years! It took two hundred years to turn just one person into a {demon}? So, how old are you, Tamayo-san?" Tanjiro, covering his head, which couldn't process the information, stood up and asked excitedly.
Hearing Tanjiro's shout, Ryuji finally noticed Tamayo's age.
If {demons} could really live that long, then how old was Tamayo now?
Thinking about it, Ryuji also carefully looked at this beautiful and mature woman.
Looking at her, Ryuji couldn't help but sigh, "As expected! In the face of beauty, age is completely irrelevant."
After hearing Tanjiro's question, Yushiro stood up and punched Tanjiro in the stomach.
"Don't ask a woman's age casually. It's very rude! You shameless scoundrel!"
Yushiro shouted angrily. After speaking, he used his Snake Fist to poke Tanjiro's stomach several times.
