Crimson Blade

The air is cool in the approaching winter, and in front of the Sanshikiya mansion, the semi-annual Bashika meeting is held as scheduled.

"It makes me so happy to see that everyone is well, and there are new pillars joining!"

"This shows that the ghost killing team is getting stronger and stronger..."

An ethereal feather-like voice resounded in the courtyard, and the purple curse was still lingering on the man's forehead, but Yuya Yuya's spirit at this time was much better than before.

"It also makes us happy to see the lord is in good health."

Wearing a haori with flame patterns on the tail, Makijuro, who just arrived at the headquarters this morning, bowed his head respectfully, and said in a very sincere tone.

The shoulder-length black hair swayed slightly, Yoya Yoya, who was kneeling on the tatami, showed a smile, then looked at all the pillars present, and said gently:

"Then, this column meeting begins."

"I'm sure you've all read the information about the upper string half-ten dog. This time I'm going to talk about the lower string."

Sitting up a little bit, Yoya Yoya's tone was a bit serious, but the joyful smile on the corner of his mouth couldn't be concealed no matter what.

"According to the information that Sato got from Spider Mountain, it is basically certain that all of Onimai Tsuji's subordinates have been strangled."

"That's really great!" Yu Sui Tianyuan shouted out of joy as his vermilion eyes lit up.

"Yu Sui-san, don't interrupt when the lord is talking, it's really rude."

Although her heart was also happy for the news, Butterfly Kanae still warned with a hint of helplessness in her words.

"It doesn't matter, after all, this is really a happy thing." Shoushiya Yoya waved his hand and said in a soft tone, shaking his sleeves.

Makijuro rubbed his chin, then said loudly:

"In this case, because it takes time for the ghost king to create subordinates, at least in a short period of time, the swordsmen below the pillar will not encounter the last quarter moon again."

"Since the last quarter moon has been eliminated, the next task is to try to kill the first quarter moon."

Seeing his colleagues so happy, Tanjuro touched his earrings, and answered with a smile.

first quarter moon...

The atmosphere that was full of joy just now disappeared in an instant, and everyone who had a headache at the thought of the first quarter moon stopped talking, and the air became a little heavy.

"I feel that the first quarter moon is quite difficult to deal with. I am afraid that it will take many people to cooperate to kill it."

Putting his chin up, Himura Ren curled his lips and muttered as he thought of the mitotic dog.

"So I think, the thing you proposed at the beginning can be done." Kanae tilted her head and said, the butterfly hair accessories on both sides seemed to be flying.

After clapping his palms, Fei Cunren's eyes lit up, and he suddenly realized something and said:

"That's right, anyway, the winding has been attacked, so I can build circuits for other pillars!"

"Indeed, we still need to pay attention, after all, compared to the ordinary swordsman Onimai Tsuji, the attention may be more on you and Tanjuro."

After thinking for a moment, he glanced at the flesh-colored middle-haired boy who was standing quietly at the side. Yoya Yasushi rubbed his sleeves with his fingers and then said:

"How about this, Sato will temporarily take over the area that Himura Ren is in charge of in the first half of next year."

"That way, Ah Ren, you can run around and build circuits for each pillar."

"Yes!" The teenager responded neatly.

"But I'm curious, is this guy Aren born with this ability or where did he get it?"

Makijuro, who stood lazily with his hands folded on his chest, raised his thick eyebrows, looked at Himura Ren with his golden red eyes and asked in a confused tone:

"Tsk, what provides vitality is even more peculiar than blood ghost art!"

I don't know either, I have this thing on my body after I wear it to this world...

Cursing his lips, Fei Cunren murmured a few words in his heart with a bitter face, and then said rather helplessly:

"Can I say, actually, I don't know?"

"It should be the day after tomorrow!"

The pattern of feathers fluttered like a butterfly, and Kanae explained with a slight side of her body:

"Because from my analysis, Ah Ren seems to have obtained this ability after being in contact with something strange."

"It can be guessed at first, it may be a huge sword with blackness in the transparency."

"Because in the eyes of people who have a complete cycle, every time Ah Ren uses this energy, there will be a phantom of such a sword above his head."

With a sword on his head?

Looking at the top of the boy's head with a strange expression, after being glared back by Fei Cunren, Yu Sui Tianyuan coughed a few times to cover up his embarrassment, and then asked:

"Then does this ability do any harm to people?"

"From the current point of view, this ability has no harm to the human body."

Recalling the detected data in her mind, Kanae shook her head and replied, but there was also a hint of curiosity in the purple eyes looking at Himura Ren.

It is indeed amazing!

Listening to the conversation among his subordinates, Yaoya Yaoya, who was sitting on the tatami mat, flashed a thoughtful look in his eyes, and the look at Himura Baba was also meaningful.

The powerful vitality can counteract one's own curse and prolong one's lifespan. To some extent, it has similarities with the existence of evil spirits.

In addition, I heard that Oni Wu Tsuji has been looking for a medicinal herb called Cyan Bana Flower...

The black hair was swaying on the side of his face, the obstetrician Yaoya closed his eyelids slightly, but there was a vague premonition in his heart.

Maybe there is no connection between Ah Ren and that medicinal material!

Afterwards, with regard to the area he was in charge of, each column began to talk about the big and small events that happened in the second half of the year, and Sanshiki Yauya also listened with a smile all the time.

And just as the Zhuhe meeting was about to end, the leader of the Demon Slayer Squad suddenly asked Kanae and Sabito to stay, as if they had something important to discuss.

With a trace of confusion in her heart, Kanae, who was left behind, looked at her lord, while Yoya Yoya gave a slight smile and signaled Satu to speak.

"I met a very special ghost when I was on a mission..." The boy's gentle voice sounded.

There was a slight pause in the voice, Satu straightened his train of thought, and continued after a while:

"This evil spirit seems to have escaped the control of Onimai Tsuji, and it also wants to cooperate with the Demon Killing Team to research the poison that can kill the Oni King."

"Her name is Zhu Shi. She came to me after I killed Xiaxian Ghost on Spider Mountain, and asked me to pass the message on her behalf."

"why?"

Kanae frowned slightly, looked at Yoya Yauya who was sitting there quietly, then looked at Sabito with her black hair shaking slightly, her purple eyes were full of puzzlement.

Although she looks forward to peaceful coexistence between humans and ghosts, but as the pillar of the Ghost Slayer Squad, she still feels that it is a bit reckless for Sato to believe in evil spirits so easily.

"Don't be impatient..."

Putting his hands in front of his body and pressing down weakly, after seeing his subordinates quiet down, Yoya Yasuki said slowly:

"I actually know Zhu Shi that Sato said. She became a ghost a long time ago, but she really hates the King of Ghosts."

"Then why didn't she come to cooperate with the Ghost Killing Squad before, but now she comes here?" After hearing the lord's explanation, Kanae still had doubts.

"According to what she said, it seems that because of the recent changes in the situation, both the upper and lower windings are worn out, which is very rare for so many years."

"That's why Zhu Shi thinks that maybe it has waited for so many years, and the opportunity to kill the ghost king has come."

"My lord, I think Miss Zhu Shi's words are worth believing."

A trace of hesitation flashed in the black-gray eyes, Satu pursed his lips, and suddenly knelt down on one knee facing the maternity house Yoya, speaking in such a gentle but firm tone.

"Get up first, I called Kanae here because I believed what you said."

Waving his hand to signal Satu to get up first, Sanshikiya Yaoya turned his eyes to look at Kanae who was already a little shaken in his heart, and then said in an ethereal and soft voice:

"To tell you the truth, it's not only that Miss Zhushi, but I also have the same feeling. Perhaps the confrontation between the Ghost Slayer Team and the Ghost King will end in our generation."

"Because Kanae is proficient in medicine, I hope you can get in touch with that Miss Tsuyoshi first." Obsessed with black eyes, staring at his subordinates tenderly, Yoya asked.

"Yes!"

Slightly nodded her head to express her agreement, and then a faint and helpless smile appeared on Kanae's face, she shook her head and said with a hint of joking complaint in her tone:

"Ah, my lord, did you do it on purpose?"

"I know that some Zhu can't accept cooperation with evil spirits, so I deliberately left me who was somewhat sympathetic to evil spirits, and then let me get in touch with that Miss Zhushi first, and let everyone know when the raw rice is cooked."

"What do you say?"

In fact, Yoya Yoya, who was only a boy at first, blinked his eyes slyly, his shoulder-length black hair shook, and said with a big smile on his face.

Near the end of the year, the Zhuhe meeting ended, and everyone dispersed, but Himura Ren planned to go home with Tanjuro to visit Aoizhi first, and then set off to perform the mission.

But before leaving, because he knew that Saito had no family anymore, Himura Ren waited for a while, and his friend planned to let Saitu spend a new year with him, and built the circuit on Saito by the way.

But beyond Fei Cunren's expectation, Sato refused, the reason being that he wanted to accompany his junior sister who was intern in Butterfly House.

"Sister?"

Hearing Fei Cunren's slightly confused voice, Sato just brushed his flesh-colored mid-length hair a little embarrassedly, and then said softly with silk in his black-gray eyes:

"Her name is Mako, and she is a new student of Teacher Lin Taki. After participating in the final selection, she felt that she was petite and not strong enough, so she came to Butterfly House as a medical staff."

"Oh~, is that so?"

Some deliberately prolonging the tone, Fei Cunren looked at Sato with a playful look in his eyes, and his tone was full of ridicule.

"Come on!"

Satoshi panicked and shoved Himura Ren's back a few times as if his mind had been exposed, and then said in a deep tone as if he had thought of something:

"You should hurry back, Yiyong is waiting for you at home!"

You still make fun of me, I really don’t know when Giyuu will be able to express the feelings in his heart...

Thinking of the rare letter that he received from his little friend asking about his relationship some time ago, the look that Sato looked at Himura Ren became more meaningful.

What is righteousness waiting for me at home?

Why does it sound weird?Himura Ren, who was pushed away, tilted his head, thinking in confusion.
