Just as Luo Jie was frowning and thinking, the red door in front of him opened.
A pair of twin girls wearing wisteria flowers on their heads and looking as delicate as birch fairies walked out of the door and bowed deeply to Luo Jie.
"You must be Mr. Nightmare. My lord already knows your purpose of coming, but due to physical reasons it is inconvenient to meet you. I hope you can understand."
Luo Jie knew that the other party's absence was not because he was pretending to be the leader of the Demon Slayer Team.
The contemporary leader "Ubuya Shiki Yoshiya" is 22 years old, and his body has been eroded by the curse. He spends most of his time in bed to slow down the deterioration. He only goes to the "pillar" level meetings to hold meetings.
A brief appearance.
"It doesn't matter, please just rest in peace, Master..." Luo Jie didn't have much time left at the moment, and he was also not interested in meeting "Ubuya Shiki Yōya", a powerful figure in the Demon Slayer Squad, so he went straight to the point: "I am currently traveling.
On the way, I plan to improve my breathing method. Is Zhuzhu here now? I want to visit."
The twin girls' faces were neither happy nor sad, just like two clay puppets.
"The other pillars usually guard various places. They will only come back when called by the lord or for regular meetings. The only one who stays at the headquarters for a long time is the "Flower Pillar" of Butterfly House."
"Butterfly House" is the medical facility of the Demon Slayer Corps. Members responsible for fighting demons are sent here for treatment and rehabilitation.
"Style?"
Luo Jie was stunned for a moment. He remembered how the person in charge of the original novel "The Butterfly House" seemed to be "Insect Pillar"?
"Yes, "Fanasia" Kanae-sama Kucho." The twin girls said in unison.
At the mention of this name, Luo Jie finally remembered it.
At this point in time, the person in charge of the "Butterfly House" is not the insect pillar "Butterfly Ninja" in the original work, but the "Butterfly Ninja"'s biological sister, the flower pillar "Butterfly Kanae".
Under the guidance of the twin girls, Luo Jie came to the "Butterfly House" located in the backyard of Ubuyashiki Mansion.
Many "Butterfly House" medical girls wearing white aprons were washing the sheets used by sunburn patients. When they saw Luo Jie, who was wearing a Demon Slayer uniform, walking into the yard, they all cast curious glances.
"Don't stare at people, it's rude."
A long-haired woman wearing a colorful feather with a butterfly pattern appeared in the courtyard, reminding the girls in a gentle tone, and then walked closer, smiled lightly at Luo Jie and said: "I am Butterfly Kanae, you
Is it the new pillar-level newcomer that my lord has been mentioning lately?"
"Night Dire." Luo Jie nodded to the other party.
"My lord, I talked to you a while ago. If you want to observe other breathing techniques to improve your own breathing techniques, please let me fully cooperate with you."
"Butterfly Kanae" nodded to the twins who were leading the way, and the latter bowed slightly and exited the courtyard.
"Night Dire, come with me. It's not convenient to show my breathing technique here."
"Thank you."
"Butterfly Kanae" was turning around to go to the back garden, when she suddenly seemed to notice something and stopped and looked up into the sky.
A pitch-black "bird" flew from a distance, flapped its wings and landed on the eaves, shouting in a funny voice: "The seventh team is in danger! The seventh team is in danger! Requesting rapid support! Rapid support!"
"Team 7?" "Butterfly Kanae" immediately changed her face slightly, raised her hand to call to a beautiful girl who was drying clothes in the courtyard, and said: "Shinobu, something happened. I need to go to the master now. It is very likely that I will have to go to the master."
Go support the seventh team. During my absence, you will be responsible for the operation of the Butterfly House."
Luo Jie couldn't help but look at the girl a few more times after hearing this. It was obvious that this was the future Insect Pillar "Butterfly Ninja".
The "Butterfly Ninja" also understood that the situation was urgent. If you delay for one more minute, one more life might be sacrificed. He immediately nodded and said: "Leave this place to me. You can go without worry, sister."
"Butterfly Kanae" gently touched her sister's head and encouraged: "Well, if you do well, when I come back, I will give you my butterfly feather fabric as a reward."
Damn it!
Hearing these words that seemed to set a death flag, Luo Jie suddenly realized a very serious problem.
In the original work, the flower column "Butterfly Kanae" accidentally encountered the "Tōma" of Kamejoji during a mission, and died of serious injuries after fighting until tomorrow. Before she died, she gave the butterfly haori to her younger sister "Butterfly Ninja"
, and then the "Butterfly Ninja" took her place and continued to lead the Butterfly House.
Since the other party mentioned Butterfly Haori, could this be the last battle of "Butterfly Kanae"?
"I'm sorry, Nightmare-kun, the observation of breathing techniques may have to be postponed." "Butterfly Kanae" turned around and apologized to Luo Jie.
"It doesn't matter." Luo Jie smiled nonchalantly, "I don't have anything to do anyway. Sister Butterfly, don't you mind if I come with you?"
"Butterfly Kanae" was stunned.
"Of course not, I can't ask for it."
If she were just an ordinary newcomer, "Butterfly Kanae" would definitely not agree to such a dangerous request. However, since this person has letters of introduction from former water pillars and former thunder pillars as guarantees, his pillar level strength should not be fake and he can accompany her.
You can also take care of yourself if you go there.
Seeing that "Butterfly Kanae" did not refuse, Luo Jie breathed a sigh of relief.
To be fair, he didn't want to fight in vain.
After all, "Tea Bag" has very little demon power left, and he may return to the timeline of the main world at any time. Apart from "Butterfly Kanae"'s "Flower Breath", he has no other choice at the moment.
Therefore, "Butterfly Kanae" must be saved no matter what.
…
Kyoto East, Mount Hina.
When Luo Jie and "Butterfly Chane" arrived at the foot of the mountain, it was already dark.
The eagles of the seventh team seemed to have been killed, and there was no news for a long time.
The two of them followed the clues left by the ground and vegetation until they reached a forest halfway up the mountain, where they finally found several broken Sun-Run knives.
"We're late." Luo Jie shook his head regretfully.
There were only blood stains on the ground, but no corpses. Combined with the recipes for ghosts, it was obvious where all the members of the seventh team had gone.
"Butterfly Kanae" had a heavy expression, clasped her hands and prayed for the injured team members for a moment, then stood up and drew out the Nichirin sword from her waist.
The pink blade is like a bud waiting to bloom in the dark night.
"Kanae, what are you going to do?"
"Now that I'm here, I must kill a few ghosts to avenge these children, otherwise their souls will not be able to rest in peace."
A trace of compassion flashed in "Butterfly Kanae"'s eyes.
She once had a dream, hoping that there would be a ghost and humans who could live in harmony, so that ghosts would no longer feed on humans, and humans would no longer chase ghosts.
But in the years since she joined the Demon Slayer Corps, countless bloody facts have made her understand that this can only be her wishful thinking.
Reality is not a fairy tale, and sheep and wolves cannot be friends.
Only ghosts who talk to each other to death are good ghosts.
