Chapter 28 Upper Moon Two
"Hello, Master!"
The three girls blushed as they looked at the god-like leader in front of them. The leader smiled faintly, stretched out his slender fingers and waved at them. The three of them immediately walked into the house as if they had lost their souls.
Through the gap, Kanae watched the three people below walk into the house. She gently moved her steps to bypass several wooden pillars in the space and followed the three people forward.
The subtle footsteps were drowned out by the footsteps of three other people, and the evil ghost leader below did not notice her presence. He just smiled and looked at the girl who was kneeling on the ground in front of him.
"Do you three have any troubles that you want to talk to me about?"
There was still a smile on his face and a soft voice came out of his mouth, which made the three girls in front of him subconsciously want to express their distress.
"Master! I don't want to continue living a life where I have to work all day and don't even have time to play with my male companion!"
"Why was I not born into a wealthy family but an ordinary family with three younger brothers and sisters for me to take care of?"
"Why... God didn't give me a... cough cough... healthy body... cough I won't accept this!"
The three girls talked about their troubles at the same time, and the leader nodded in agreement from time to time or took out his golden fan to cover his face so that the three people would not see his sad expression.
On the ceiling, Kanae frowned and quietly looked at the various situations below.
There's something wrong with the ideas of these three girls...
However, there was no way to escape the identity of the leader as an evil ghost. The three girls who were looking at them could not see it, but Kanae above them could see it clearly.
There was no emotion at all in the leader's eyes, and even covering his face with a fan was just an act!
However, she could not see the numbers in the other person's eyes on the ceiling, and could not determine the other person's position in the Twelve Demon Months.
At this time, the chattering and crying sounds below also stopped, and the three of them kowtowed to the leader in front of them in unison, with a hint of hope in their voices.
"We beg the Master to have mercy on us!"
Hearing this, the emotionless evil ghost put on a disgusting hypocritical look of pity.
"Is that so... my poor believers... let me send you to paradise so that you can live forever with me~"
As he spoke, his fangs stood up, and his muscles swelled to push up his originally loose red robe. The blood-like pattern on the collar looked even more ferocious.
On the ceiling, as a pillar, she was able to maintain full concentration breathing at all times. This was the [Full Concentration Breathing - Always] that only a strong swordsman could master. Seeing that the evil ghost was no longer pretending, Kanae immediately drew out the Nichirin Sword from her waist!
The body drove the blade to chop down suddenly, breaking through the ceiling and slashing downwards. The blade passed through the air, leaving falling cherry blossoms wherever it went!
Breathing of flowers? Type 1? Falling cherry blossoms!
With a flash of cold light, the blade with cherry blossoms went straight for the evil ghost's neck!
But the evil ghost looked up and smiled calmly, as if he had expected it.
"The little guy can't help it~"
He raised the golden fan in his hand and blocked it casually.
clang!
The roar of metal hitting metal echoed in the room, waking up the three frightened girls.
The attack failed and Kanae jumped back to avoid the evil spirit's attack range. She ignored the three people shouting behind her. At this moment, she felt extremely heavy in her heart.
Not only because she realized that the evil ghost in front of her had discovered her whereabouts from the beginning, but also because she saw the terrifying words in the other's rainbow-colored pupils at this moment.
【Upper String】【Two】
A powerful evil demon that had not been killed in nearly 130 years suddenly appeared in front of her. According to records, it took the three pillars working together to kill the upper-rank demon.
His face was solemn, he might not be able to survive this time... He just hoped to pass the information on. He looked at the three girls lying limp on the ground behind him.
"Run!"
"No way~"
As soon as Kanae finished speaking, a frivolous voice sounded in her ears. When she turned around, the evil ghost's smiling but awkward face appeared in front of her.
!
In an instant, Kanae swung several arc-shaped slashes in front of her and around her like blooming plum blossoms, slashing at the evil ghost's head while deflecting the golden fan he threw at her.
Breathing of flowers? Type 2? Mikage plum!
This swift attack did not hurt the evil ghost at all. The opponent just tilted his head back and took a step back to easily avoid it, watching with interest the afterimage left by Kanae's sword skills.
"What a powerful and beautiful swordsmanship. Are you the Pillar of the Demon Slayer Corps? Nice to meet you, Douma. My name is."
After saying this, he looked expectantly at Kanae who was holding the knife vigilantly in front of him.
And Kanae naturally would not give any face to this evil ghost who had no emotions but pretended to be emotionally rich. She sneered and shouted in a serious tone.
"Demon Slayer Corps, Hanashiri, Kocho Kanae, they are the ones who are going to chop off your head!"
Douma smiled and opened his narrowed eyes. His eyes were cold but his tone was still frivolous.
"That adult said that he wanted to reduce the power of the Demon Slayer Corps as much as possible, so Kanae, live with me forever!"
bass!
As he spoke, he swung open the two golden fans. The pink lotus and emerald green lotus leaves on the fans formed a beautiful scenery, but the edges of the fans reflected bursts of cold light.
Waving the golden fan, several lotus-shaped ice crystals shot out from the fans and headed straight for Kanae's heart.
Blood Demon Art—Lotus Leaf Ice!
He was about to jump up and dodge, but then he remembered that there were three ordinary people shivering behind him, so he swung his sword and made another plum blossom-shaped slash.
She used Yuyingmei to shatter all the ice crystals, but she herself was repelled by the huge force of the ice crystals.
Her feet left long marks on the floor, and Kanae had retreated to the side of the three girls.
"Run."
She whispered a reminder to the three of them again, but they just kept crying and beating their thighs and couldn't move forward, which made Kanae anxious.
At this time, Douma said to Kanae happily.
"These three kids are such a hassle that they're preventing you from focusing on fighting me. Let me help you solve this problem!"
As he spoke, he swung his arms and frost climbed up from his hands onto the fan.
Oh no! Kanae quickly realized that something was wrong, but she was too late to stop Douma. Just as the golden fan was about to blow the frost storm towards the four people.
Wow! Wow!
A loud explosion was heard from behind Kanae, and then the wooden wall was blown apart. Wood chips, dust, and smoke from the explosion hit everything in the room, interrupting Douma who was about to release the blood demon art.
In the black smoke, Kanae pulled the feather ornament over her mouth and nose and stared around vigilantly. Before she was attacked suddenly, she heard a familiar voice.
"Sister! Come here!"
It's Shinobu's voice! Why is she here? !
Even though she had a lot of questions in her mind, Kanae had no time to ask them. She hurriedly took the three girls and walked towards the direction of the sound in the black smoke.
The light of the setting sun shone into Kanae's eyes through the black smoke, making her feel as if she were in another world.
"Pfft."
A soft thing fell into his arms, and when he looked down, he saw it was Shinobu Kocho who was crying, and standing next to her was Wolf who had just taken back the firecrackers.
At this moment, she was looking at the sisters in front of her calmly, but the curiosity in the depths of her eyes was accurately captured by Kanae.
Without disturbing the reunion of the two sisters, Wolf first sent the three girls to the next level with the grappling hook of his prosthetic arm, then drew his knife and looked vigilantly at the big hole that he had blasted with firecrackers, from which black smoke continued to emerge.
Ordinary firecrackers can't do anything to such a powerful evil spirit...
