As a general, she cannot be a good daughter of Kage.

Because it was night, the corridor of the headquarters was filled with a dark and deep atmosphere at the moment... Only scattered moonlight shone through the windows, and the pure white silver gray was exposed in the air under the moonlight, forming a desolate color.

clatter...

Yiyong stood up and looked at the woman in front of him who hung the knife on her waist again.

"Why do you recommend her to my lord?"

It seems that the other party rarely does this kind of thing, right?What is it for this time?

"...Want to know~?"

Shinobu glanced at him after hanging her Nichirin sword on her waist, and then walked past him and asked nonchalantly.

"It's okay if you don't say it."

When Yiyong saw her leaving, he also followed her... The two of them walked one behind the other on the long corridor that was splashed by the moonlight.

"She's important to...us."

Shinobu walked in front and said to Giyuu behind him in a calm tone.

"...Important? To us?"

After hearing this, Yiyong narrowed his eyes slightly in confusion and his tone became suspicious.

"Yes, to us."

Shinobu answered.

"…What's the meaning?"

the other party asked.

clatter...

Shinobu stopped, and the people behind her also stopped. The corridor without the sound of footsteps returned to its previous silence, and even the chirping of insects never appeared.

Ren was just under the moonlight, and the silvery white light made her fair cheeks more crystal clear. She turned slightly and looked sideways at the man behind her. The usual smiling expression no longer existed, and was replaced by it. What is serious...and upright.

"I think...she has the power to change things."

She answered the other party with a voice as clear as a spring.

"...!"

Yiyong's eyes widened slightly for a second and then returned to calm.

"What's the basis?"

asked calmly.

"No."

After hearing this, Shinobu answered him straightforwardly.

"..."

The other party was silent...

"I have no basis. It all comes from my intuition."

He reached out and gently stroked the ends of his hair... some complicated explanation.

"intuition?"

"Well... it's just intuition. She is very special. I always feel that if we miss it... we will lose a lot of precious things."

Shinobu looked at the moonlight in the distance and sighed.

"Precious things?"

"That's right...I can't tell you the details, it's very vague...but I firmly believe that my choice is the right one."

After saying that, she didn't stop any longer...and took steps towards the front again.

"What kind of person is she?"

Yiyong followed along and asked curiously,

"I have been with her for about a year... She is a very nice person. Sometimes she is silly and cute... just like a child. She is also charming when she is serious. It is incredible."

Shinobu replied with a smile.

"You rarely speak of a person like this."

Yiyong glanced at her and replied calmly.

"Maybe... maybe this is what makes the other person special, isn't it, Mr. Tomioka?"

Shinobu looked at him...

"……I hope so."

He narrowed his eyes and replied coldly.

Hopefully she can respond to their expectations.

Demon Slayer: Self-cultivation as Naruhashira: Chapter 54 'Huh? '——Are these your last words?

Tat...×2

The footsteps of the two people echoed clearly in this dark forest... The girl has been holding hands with the woman in front of her while walking in this jungle. Although she was very scared, she felt at ease the moment she was held by the other person's hand. Get up, maybe this is the charm of the other party.

During the general period, he was holding the girl behind him while holding his naginata and looking around the environment. The Spider Mountain in this field really lives up to its name. Sometimes you can see countless white spiders and spider silk on the bark of the tree, but she didn't think anything of it. It just feels like it. The key is the girl behind him. The other person may be scared. After all, this kind of thing can make people's hair stand on end.

click...

"Yeah~!"

Perhaps out of nervousness, the girl behind her accidentally tripped over a fallen branch, staggered subconsciously, and let out a cute exclamation.

"!"

She immediately turned around and stabilized the other person's body... helped the other person up and patted the other person's dusty shirt.

"Yes, I'm sorry...sister...I..."

The girl feels a little guilty...

"It's okay...just follow me."

She didn't let the other party apologize...she still held the other party's hand tightly and led him through the dense forest.

"Hmmmmm."

Her gentleness was fully reflected at this time, which further improved the girl's favor.

"Why do you want to join the Demon Slayer Corps?"

I took the girl and walked in the jungle. I felt that the atmosphere was a little awkward, so I asked the other party softly. This was also so that the other party could relax a little and become less nervous.

"Eh? Because... my village is often haunted by ghosts... Every time they appear, they hurt the villagers. One time, my mother was also..."

When the girl said this, she squeezed her hand slightly... and even trembled a little.

"Are you doing this for the village and your mother?"

she asked.

"Hmm...but...huh...I really can't do it...I'm very timid. Sometimes I'm so afraid of ghosts that I can't even hold a knife."

"But you've passed the test, haven't you?"

The general looked back at the other party and asked.

"…Um."

The girl was silent for a second and then nodded softly.

"Since you have passed such a dangerous test, it means that you are very courageous and courageous. Huh... Ordinary people would not even dare to have simple ideas. After all, the Demon Slayer Corps is a very dangerous profession."

She spoke out to comfort the other person who had a sense of inferiority at the moment.

"elder sister…"

The girl's voice was a little muffled...as if she was speaking from her heart.

"You are already very good... However, no matter how good you are, your life must come first. If your life is gone, there will be nothing. Do you understand?"

He looked back at the other party.

"Oh, I see."

"elder sister…"

"Ok?"

She didn't look back and just used a nasal voice to signal the other party to continue...

"Are you from the Ghost Killing Squad?"

the girl asked.

"...Not yet."

Her conservative answer...

"oh, I see…"

The girl lowered her eyes in disappointment...

wow...

While talking, the two of them finally walked out of the deep jungle, and what they saw was the suddenly bright forest clearing. However, the atmosphere in this clearing seemed much weirder than the previous jungle.

The reason is the overall layout. There are large pieces of spider silk hanging everywhere in the space. On each spider silk, there are disgusting corpse-like things hanging upside down. They look like people and spiders, and some are even wrapped in spider silk. The man has begun to metamorphose into a spider, his arms have turned into sharp claws, his face is deformed, and there are countless small spiders crawling around, dripping with that disgusting viscous liquid.

"Hmm~"

Seeing this, the girl quickly covered her mouth and hid behind her, enduring the discomfort in her stomach, because she saw that several of the corpses were the Demon Slayer swordsmen who were with her.

"..."

The general also narrowed his eyes dangerously, looking at the center of these intertwined spider threads. It was a house suspended in mid-air. The house was not at a positive angle... but was twisted in an inverted direction, as if in a dream. The curious scene.

Hua la la la ×N

At this moment, those densely packed little spiders eagerly jumped off the corpse after seeing the new 'prey', and gradually surrounded the two of them in the center.
