Chapter 27 The war is about to begin
Under the setting sun, the prosperous city was shrouded in a blood-red light. The ignorant believers in the city continued to study how to gain the favor of the leader, completely unaware that they were accomplices of the tiger.
Turning his head to look at Shinobu Kocho who had a serious expression on her face behind him. This time she came back to help her sister Kanae Kocho. Wolf decided to give her the command of the next operation.
"What should we do next? Break in... or sneak..."
As her sister's safety was at stake, Shinobu Kocho didn't bother to ask Wolf about Ashina. She calmed down and carefully planned her next move.
Suddenly, her expression changed slightly and she clenched the team uniform on her chest. For some reason, she felt a sudden pain in her heart, and the therapeutic effect of the pills was still taking effect. This pain was obviously not an ordinary pain.
"what..."
Sister! Sister is in danger!
Feeling something strange about Shinobu Kocho behind him, Wolf turned his head curiously and asked him.
"what happened?"
Without answering the wolf's question, she quickly leaned close to the wolf's ear and asked in a weak but anxious voice.
"Please believe me... I don't know why I can feel that my sister is in danger... The evil ghost of the Eternal Paradise Cult is definitely not as simple as a lower-level ghost!"
Hearing Shinobu Kocho's earnest voice, Wolf's expression gradually became solemn. He believed what Shinobu Kocho said, but if it was an evil ghost that even Kanae Kocho couldn't deal with, then there was only one possibility.
Upper Moon Demon!
"What do you want me to do?"
"The sun hasn't completely set yet. If we attract the evil ghost's attention now, maybe we can give my sister a chance to escape. But...you and I might be in danger."
After saying that, Butterfly Shinobu lowered her head in shame and looked at her thin arms with hatred.
Damn it... In order to rescue my sister, I have to drag the wolf into the water. I am so useless.
I looked up to see the wolf's reaction but saw that he had a blank expression on his face, just staring at his palms, wondering what he was thinking about.
It doesn't matter. Even if he doesn't want to put himself in danger, it is understandable. He has already helped himself a lot.
My body has almost recovered.
Thinking of this, she was about to jump off the wolf's back, but at this moment the wolf suddenly jumped off the branch and ran faster and faster. Even with Shinobu Kocho on its back, it left a shadow on the way and headed straight for the watchtower not far away.
Waving his prosthetic arm, the sound of the hook piercing into the watchtower woke up the dozing sentry. Just as he was about to loudly remind his companions, a black shadow flew over along the rope.
He kicked the sentry in the face and knocked him off the watchtower. He used the force to jump up again. Without stopping, he swung out and retrieved the grappling hook continuously and flew across the town in the stunned eyes of the believers on the ground.
There's no need to sneak, the louder the better.
In mid-air, Shinobu Kocho, who didn't expect the wolf to suddenly explode, hugged the wolf's neck tightly for fear that she would fall from the height.
"learn."
The frightened expression froze her for a moment. The wolf's usually calm voice made her nose sore. She rubbed her already wet eyes, and her voice trembled slightly.
"Thank you."
Soon, with the wolf moving at a high speed, before the believers could report, the wolf had already taken Shinobu Kocho over the Red Bridge and arrived at the highest point of the temple of the Eternal Paradise Religion.
She jumped off the wolf's back, and thanks to the pills the wolf gave her, her body had recovered enough to move freely.
Ignoring the chaotic town behind him, he looked at the room in front of him surrounded by exquisite wooden frames and paper windows. His brows furrowed, and the pain in his heart became more intense.
I can feel it...my sister is here!
Click, click.
Turning his head to look at the wolf beside him who was constantly swinging his arms to switch ninja tools, no words needed, just a look was enough.
With a flash of sparks, the ninja tool - firecrackers was switched from Yi's hand by Wolf.
Next, the louder the better!
--------
Let's fast forward the time a little bit to the time when Wolf gave the Divine Snow to Butterfly Kanae as interest.
She solemnly placed the wooden box containing the magic paper in the cloth bag hanging on her waist. She would not use this magical power unless it was absolutely necessary.
She took off the loose clothes of the believers on the ground and put them on herself, filling them with her own haori and Demon Slayer Corps uniform. At this moment, Kanae looked like a big fat believer.
He walked out of the house calmly and confidently, and came to the corridor outside. Some believers were busy with their own affairs, while others were walking towards the room where the leader was with one or more girls.
Kanae seized the opportunity and followed a group of believers with three girls. The believers walking in front did not see Kanae, and these girls just thought that there was one more person following them.
Every girl's eyes were filled with longing. They had heard more than once from the believers who brought them here about the purpose of the Eternal Paradise Religion, which was to do whatever they liked.
In this era when new things are pouring into Japan and the gap between the rich and the poor is widening day by day, it is easy to imagine the appeal of such a purpose to girls from ordinary families like them.
And after they learned that by meeting the leader, they could enter a world of bliss without worries under his teachings, their trust in the Eternal Bliss Sect became self-evident.
Looking at the light in the girls' eyes, Kanae Kocho realized that they had been completely trapped in the conspiracy of this damn evil ghost.
Kanae couldn't bear to think about how many young girls this church had harmed in the past two hundred years, and a feeling of guilt arose in her heart.
If it weren't for Wolf's accidental discovery, the Demon Slayer Corps wouldn't have known anything about this evil demon for two hundred years...
The hand hidden in the wide sleeves tightly grasped the hilt of the knife. Kanae, who had always been gentle to demons even when she was killing them in the end, now had only determination and sharpness in her eyes.
That evil ghost must be killed!
He slowly followed the girl and the believers towards the evil ghost's room, but he consciously adjusted his breathing so that he could get his body into the best condition before seeing the evil ghost.
Climbing up the stairs to the top of the temple, Kanae realized that this building was more like a Japanese castle built by the evil ghost than a temple.
The higher you go, the more ornate the decoration becomes and the fewer believers there are.
After walking for a long time, until the three girls were too tired to walk, the group finally arrived at the top floor of the temple where the evil ghost was.
The believers in front saw that they had reached their destination and were about to turn back to explain something to the three girls.
And Kanae naturally noticed that she could not be discovered at this time.
She quickly looked up at the ceiling and a raised wooden board caught her attention. She jumped lightly, grabbed the raised board and pulled it down, then turned around and climbed up to the space above the ceiling that separated her from the roof.
He then put the wooden board back into place. All these actions happened smoothly in an instant without making any sound.
He leaned over and listened to the believers below. There was nothing unusual. He said a few words to the girl and then left. The girls were so tired that they did not notice that the fat believer who had followed them all the way was now nowhere to be seen.
The three girls looked at the shoji door in front of them. The leader they had been thinking about was right behind the door and they were about to go to paradise!
He swallowed, reached out, opened the door and looked into the room.
I saw a handsome man in a gorgeous black church uniform and a tall hat sitting on a futon in the middle of the room, with white oak hair and gorgeous colorful eyes.
His handsome appearance made the three young girls feel as if they had really seen a god.
Looking at the three girls in front of him, he supported his chin with his right hand and made a frivolous sound.
"Another little guy came in~"
