Volume 5 "Banana Cave: Demonic Lady, Princess Iron Fan"

In order to extinguish the wild flames of the Flaming Mountains and get to Tianzhu, we definitely need the "Banana Leaf Fan."

And Princess Iron Fan, the one who resides in the Banana Leaf Cave, is the wielder of said fan.

A world-renowned beauty, also known as the Demonic Lady, a Rakshesa. I wonder what kind of beautiful madam she is?

Yeah, an older married woman doesn't sound bad. Anyway, a beautiful lady is beautiful even if she is someone else's wife.

Hey you! Don't get excited about the "someone else's wife" part. Keep it to yourself!

Anyway, it's impossible to predict what kind of people we'll meet on this journey...

？！

No joke! No joke! My mom is so scary!

Red Boy.

GAH! Mom! Sorry, I was eating some potato chips!

Correction. You will address me as "Mother," or else I will cut that infected tongue out.

Sorry, Mom! Please don't cut my tongue off!

I will tolerate staying out overnight without permission... but did you wash your hands when you got home?

I did! Very thoroughly for about five seconds! Then dried them with the Banana Leaf Fan!

That explains the mess in the bathroom. What happens if those germs get spread around the castle?

I've told you to carry disposable towels with you so many times... Hmmm? Did you rinse your mouth after returning home?

Of course! For about three seconds while drinking cola!

Hear my beautiful voice. We have a similar voice, right? Genetically mother and child!

...Red Boy. What's that scratch on your cheek?

(Gasp)

Just a scratch! It's nothing! Just put some saliva on it and

It seems I need to teach you a lesson. To the medical room. I will treat you myself.

Ahhhhhh, I'm sorry, Mom!

I don't wanna wash my face in a bucket of peroxide again!

...It's kind of like an army torture scene.

Too much enthusiasm for education... Kids grow up open-minded when left free, but...

Either way, she's nobody's fool... We did beat Red Boy, but didn't kill him.

There's no reason Princess Iron Fan would get mad. I'm sure we can just talk it out!

Rejected & please leave now.

You wouldn't even consider it!?

There have been no reports of anyone falling ill around the Flaming Mountains.

Those flames must have strong anti-bacterial effects.

？！

I am quite offended that you would criticize my charity work.

There are many uses for the Banana Leaf Fan.

However, I cannot lend it to you for a trivial reason like extinguishing a mountain fire.

？！

Ox-Demon King... My partner is not here in this castle. He must be wandering about...

Even Red Boy is following his bad example... My patience is just about running out.

？！

My principle of education is perfect! I even allow my son independence!

？！

Um... Well...

...Fujimaru, was it? Did you come here to provoke me?

I'm always furious... at this unsanitary world... at the fact that accursed disease runs rampant everywhere.

Yes! Travelers like you are especially beyond help!

Greedy for repletion, knowledge, and pleasure; living as you desire. You would dig up buried relics and wake dormant indigenous diseases.

Surely you're going about spreading a pandemic of pallidness. You're nothing but a walking compost!

That's not true! I simply bought some buns, and threw the leftovers on the street!

It's charity for the animals. I litter. With no hesitation.

I am so careless. There is one facility this mountain is missing.

The chef with the red cape said, "the pig is a very useful domestic animal. The only part you can't use is its scream."

Let's test those words. Don't worry, I'm a nurse.

I'm used to people writhing and screaming in pain. Scream like you could tear up the sky!

Phew, good response to provocation, deathly nurse! I'll leave the rest to you, Brother!

I don't get along with ladies who don't understand humor!

Fine, I'll accept the challenge! You guys, I'm counting on you!

So...this is the Banana Leaf Fan? Looks pretty different than the legends...

Doesn't it look...like a certain holy sword? Is it even okay for a monk to hold a sword?

It is said that in order to cut the root of the fire from the Flaming Mountains, one needs to fan the flame forty-nine times. But she said that since this is EX-ranked, you just need to fan it once.

Princess Iron Fan handed out the scripture she possessed obediently. I cannot fathom the reason that only the Banana Leaf Fan would be a fake.

Anyhow, once we use it, we'll know if it's fake or not, oink.

That's true. I'll try! Here we go

Ex...calibanana Leaf Fan!

Amazing! It's gone! It blew all the fire away!

So all that fire-walking training for nothing? Well, never mind!

Fujimaru! We did it!

？！

Yes!
