==============================

"Hey, Tanjiro."

"Ok?"

"Are those two really okay?"

"You mean Hiiragi-san and Inosuke?" Tanjiro, who was burying the corpse, raised his head and smiled at my wife Zenitsu, "Let them have a good talk, it will be fine."

"No, let's talk about it, are your eyes okay?"

The two of them were clearly fighting.

Just now, the boy wearing a wild boar headgear who woke up again looked at Kuhara Hiiragi for a long time, then stood up and raised the knife to cut it, but before he chopped it down, he seemed to think of something, and gave up on himself. He took it back and turned to attacking with his bare hands.

Kuhara Hiiragi hid with ease, but this behavior seemed to anger Inosuke even more.

"If it's fun, go play! Didn't you tell me not to come here? Then you should get out now! You are not Kihara, damn it!"

Kuhara Hiiragi accepted Inosuke's fist calmly, "You are injured and need to rest."

"Even if I'm injured, I can beat you now!"

"You need rest."

"I said I don't need it!"

"I don't want your wound to worsen."

"Who cares about you!"

"It's really enough, you guys! Are you a three-year-old child!?" My wife Shanyi couldn't take it any longer. He looked at the two people who had changed from fighting to competing for strength at some point, "Why don't you hurry up and help me if you have time? !"

"……I see."

Kuhara Hiiragi sighed inwardly, and let go of Inosuke's fist, and the latter also stood there without responding.

He turned around and walked towards Tanjirou and Zenitsu, but at the next moment he felt that the hem of his clothes was being pulled.

"Inosuke?"

"Little brother is not allowed to leave the boss and go away alone."

It was not the first time that Inosuke was called a younger brother. He never cared much about address and etiquette, but this time Kuhara Hiiragi shook his head.

"...I'm not your little brother."

I am not your master anymore.

"Huh? What nonsense are you talking about! You rebelled after not seeing you for a few years!?"

Even though Inosuke was yelling, Kuhara Hiiragi could still hear a bit of crying that he couldn't cover up.

He froze for a moment, then reached out and grabbed the boy's wrist.

"Then let's go together."

After burying the body, Raven led several people down the mountain.

A family who was rescued by ghost hunters changed their family crest to a pattern of wisteria flowers, and provided food, lodging and medical assistance to the ghost hunters in the past.

"I'm not a member of the Demon Slayer Corps." Kuhara Hiiragi said.

"It doesn't matter, as long as you are a ghost hunter who kills evil spirits, please come in." said the old woman with her white hair tied behind her head.

At night, Tanjiro's box made a noise, which made Zenitsu almost faint again in fright.But when he saw a cute girl coming out of it, his panic turned into a heinous murderous intent towards Tanjiro.

"You are so lucky, kid, to run around with such a cute girl all day."

He picks up the knife.

"Wait a minute, Zenitsu, Nezuko is..."

While Inosuke, who was lying in the futon, looked at Nezuko who came out of the box and gradually changed from a young child to a young girl, suddenly thought of something, and turned to look at Kuhara Hiiragi who was resting in the corner.

"Hey Kihara, speaking of which, you are also a ghost now, right?"

"Ah."

When Kuhara Hiiragi answered, he lowered his head a little.

It was his own choice to become what he is now, even though he knew that Inosuke didn't care whether he was a human or a ghost, but whenever he talked about it, he always felt a little inexplicably guilty.

He thought for a while, and was about to explain the ins and outs of the matter to Inosuke, when he suddenly heard the boy ask in a tone of eagerness:

"Then can you get smaller too?"

"...?"

Kuhara Hiiragi was stunned: "What did you say?"

"I asked if you could also get into a box like that?"

Inosuke sat up from the quilt and pointed to Nezuko's box. He was not wearing a wild boar headgear now, and his light green eyes widened and stared at Kuhara Hiiragi. The latter froze for a moment, and looked away somewhat unnaturally.

"Don't worry too much, I'm not afraid of the sun."

"I didn't ask you this, but I asked if you could get in?"

"?"

Kuhara Hiiragi frowned slightly when he heard the words. He felt that Inosuke might have misunderstood something, and explained: "Tanjirou is carrying his sister on his back, and he built a box to move during the day, so that Nezuko can avoid being exposed to the sun. .”

"Of course I know! Conger Kanjiro said it just now!" Inosuke said impatiently, "Why are you talking so much? Answer my question quickly."

"..."

Kuhara Hiiragi almost couldn't catch his breath.

Although he knew that Inosuke had no sense of respecting his elders, he really didn't expect that this child had reached the point of making fun of his elders?

This is wronging Inosuke, the boy's idea is actually very simple - as long as Kuhara Hiiragi gets smaller, he must be more like the boss, after all, his current height is still a bit shorter than that person.

But Jiuyuan Hiiragi didn't know it himself, he just felt that his past education had failed for the first time, and now he had to stop the signs of this kind of thing.So Inosuke saw the figure sitting in the corner stand up, slowly approaching him, and at the same time that always expressionless face gradually darkened.

"Kihara?" He inexplicably felt a little nervous.

"Of course I can get smaller."

Kuhara Hiiragi looked at the lump on Inosuke's head that was knocked out by Tanjiro, and in the end, out of concern for his apprentice who had reunited after a long absence, he did not show a ghostly appearance, but just stared condescendingly into his eyes.

"As long as you beat me, I'll build a box myself and get in. But don't even think about it until then, understand?"

Before the boy could answer, he turned around and went back to the corner, closed his eyes again and began to rest.

"what?"

Inosuke's mind was full of question marks, he could sense that Kuhara Hiiragi was angry, but he didn't know what the other party was angry about.

The boy who grew up in the mountains was not good at thinking, and he was even more confused at this time, so he could only grab the pillow and throw it angrily at Shanyi who was running after Nezuko.

"Why me!" Shanyi who was knocked down wanted to cry but had no tears.

After resting for a while, the ghost slayers who finally recovered from their wounds faced a new task.

"Kibeidong, Beibeidong! The three of them will go to Nata Spider Mountain in Beibeidong for support!" The raven that landed in Tanjiro's palm conveyed the message, and then it croaked hoarsely before flying back to the sky. In the air, "Hurry up! Hurry up!"

Kuhara Hiiragi frowned.

He had performed the blood ghost technique in the House of Vine Patterns before - Hearing Evil Voices, but there were no traces of ghosts in the surrounding area, which means that the mission location this time is far away, and it would take at least a short time to rush there according to the walking distance. for hours.

What kind of mission actually requires the support of three ghost slayers beyond the half-day trip?

"What's wrong?" Tanjirou noticed something and cast him a suspicious look.

"It's nothing, I'll go with you too," Kuhara Hiiragi came back to his senses, and looked at the boys, "Just get ready for battle, don't be nervous."

In case of any accident, he will do his best to protect the people around him.

The task location is indeed far away.

After leaving the rattan pattern house, several people ran from daytime to dusk, and finally saw the mountain that was said to be the mission location from a distance.

"Vampire Art - Hearing Evil Voices."

"Ah! Don't suddenly become a ghost, Mr. Kuhara!" Neither Tanjiro nor Inosuke responded, but Zenitsu was still startled by Kuhara Hiiragi, "At least give me a signal!"

"Wen Yi is so noisy! Why are you sitting on the ground?"

"I'm scared! As soon as I get close to the mission location, I'm terrified!"

"There are multiple ghosts on that mountain." Kuhara Hiiragi had already used the blood ghost technique to investigate at this time. He looked at the pitch-black mountain with a dignified expression, "I'll go ahead, be careful yourself."

After all, he borrowed his strength and ran a considerable distance in an instant, and heard Tanjiro shouting behind him: "Mr. Hiiragi, please be careful!"

Still careless.

I thought it was just a tricky task, so I asked someone to do some finishing work.It turned out that the situation in the mountains was probably more severe than I had imagined.

The multiple surviving ghosts, the ghost killing team members who were being sent over constantly, now he could almost imagine how terrible the sacrifice had become.

It would be nice if we rushed over from the beginning.

Thinking of this, Kuhara Hiiragi saw a young man wearing the uniform of the Demon Slayer Squad lying in the middle of the road ahead.

still alive.

"What happened?" He put away his ghostly appearance and ran to the man, "Are you okay?"

The seriously injured Demon Slayer soldier raised his head, and after seeing that the person in front of him was neither wearing a Demon Slayer uniform nor carrying a knife, he showed a somewhat desperate expression, "Please, please don't approach that mountain..."

It is estimated that he is regarded as a general public.Kuhara Hiiragi thought for a while, and was about to help the young man up from the ground, when he suddenly found a few imperceptible thin threads attached to the soldier's back, and suddenly pulled him forcefully into the air.

Is it vampirism?

"Stuck, even I was...!"

"Blood ghost art - call eyes!"

Regardless of continuing to pretend to be a human, Kuhara Hiiragi immediately took action, and the thin lines disappeared the moment they were caught by Xiangshu's eyes, and the ghost killer fell from mid-air.

He jumped forward to catch him and put him back on the ground.

"Thank you..." The ghost killer just wanted to thank you when he suddenly saw Kuhara Hiiragi's face and screamed, "Ahh! You...!"

"Leave quickly and report the situation to the Demon Slayer Squad for support." Ignoring the terrified cry of the Demon Slayer Squadron after discovering that he was a ghost, Kuhara Hiiragi turned his head and ran towards the mountain after finishing his instructions.

……

"Really? It's really hard for you to come back." In the mansion surrounded by wisterias in the distance, Yoya Yashiki comforted the panting Raven in his arms, "It seems that there are twelve ghost moons haunting there. Zhu went to find out."

He turned his head and looked at the two column members sitting in the room.

"Sakura, Shinobu."

The author has something to say:

However, although……

It's not too far to go into the box (whisper)
