365 days of playing the knife

"You said, can a human and a ghost give birth to a child of mixed blood?"

Hearing this kind of words, Purgatory, who had never thought that there would be such a plot, opened his eyes wide, but subconsciously thought in this direction, but before thinking deeper, he was always very gentle—so gentle At the time of the Nine Pillars Trial, I couldn't help but feel unbearable towards Nezuko who is a ghost because of Satoshi's words—Kanae Butterfly was shocked by her actions.

The teacups of the Purgatory House are not specially made, they are just common ones that can be bought in the market. As a result, they were not broken by the often angry Purgatory father, but were crushed by Kanae, the butterfly who came to the Purgatory House once in a while... It's a very subtle feeling.

Of course, Purgatory Xingshou Lang didn't think of this, but subconsciously put away the fragments of the tea set that still had tea in it and wrapped it with a piece of cloth that didn't know where it came from.At the same time, Butterfly Kanae also said sorry, and wiped off the tea stains on the table with her handkerchief.

Purgatory Xingshoulang shook his head, "This little thing is not important at all! You didn't catch the butterfly, did you?"

Butterfly Kanae folded the wet handkerchief and put it aside, "It's okay, Mr. Purgatory."

Purgatory Xingshoulang: "That's good!"

After this was resolved, Purgatory Xingjulang and Butterfly Kanae seemed to finally realize that the protagonist of this conversation was ignored by them.

Cattail seemed to be a little puzzled by Butterfly Kanae's current reaction. After making sure that the other party didn't scratch his hand, he asked: "Is the mixed race so surprising?"

"Indeed...it's surprising." Butterfly Kanae couldn't help pursing the corners of her mouth, which was already a very serious expression for her who was always smiling.As for why she had this reaction, it was all because she found out that Cattail was serious.

Cattail is seriously thinking about the possibility that he and Bone Ghoul are a hybrid of human and ghost.

The black-haired Fu Sangshen had no expression on his face, and his expression at the moment was almost exactly the same as that of his brother. He gestured with numbers with his fingers, "First of all, over the years, my brother and I have observed many ghosts, and almost none of them belonged to human beings. memory."

Gu Gu added: "But they will never forget their obsession with being human."

Cattail also nodded, "For ghosts, their time will stay at the moment when they become ghosts, they won't grow up, they won't grow old."

"Even if my brother and I grow slower than ordinary people... But why haven't we changed at all over the years, and we haven't grown in height at all!" Speaking of this, Cattail's expression became a little depressed.

In this regard, the bones that can break through the 160 mark by only one centimeter have nothing to say.

"In this world, there are only ghosts besides human beings. We have no memory, and the time on our bodies seems to have stopped at this moment. Except for not being afraid of the sun, not hating wisteria flowers and not eating humans, almost everything else coincides with ghosts."

"[Baishan] has a special ability." Gu Gu continued.

Cattail immediately nodded: "That's right! Isn't Baishan's special ability very similar to [Blood Ghost Art]! Originally, I couldn't directly imagine it here, after all, not eating humans is enough to exclude us from the identity of ghosts." It's..."

Gu Gu: "Nezuko."

Cattail: "She is a ghost, but she doesn't eat people... Does this mean that there should be more special ghosts in the world?"

The black and white twins looked at each other and said in unison, "Mixed blood."

Catao looked at Purgatory Kyojuro who was almost convinced, and Butterfly Kanae, whose expression was getting more and more serious, "This is the best reason I can think of to explain all this."

Butterfly Kanae disagreed, "There has never been a case of human beings and ghosts combining."

This time it was Gu Gu who took the initiative to answer, he said, "But that doesn't mean there isn't one."

Butterfly Chanae frowned, she finally realized something was wrong, the attitudes of Cattail and Bones were too tough, as if even if they were not half-human and ghost, they must be half-breed at this moment.For other people, there are other ways, but for this pair of twins, it is enough to ask directly, so Butterfly Kanae asked.

"...Who would want to be a ghost?" Hearing Butterfly Chanae's question, the black-haired boy pulled a smile that seemed to have a bit of bitterness, and he didn't know if it was her illusion, "Of course I don't want to either. My brother and I are ghosts—not only are we not, but it’s best not to get involved at all.”

"Then why..."

"However, if we are neither human nor ghost, or even a hybrid of human and ghost." Cattail asked, "Then what are we?"

Ah...is that so, how do you feel?

Butterfly Kanae's expression was tinged with sadness that she felt the same way.Forget everything, forget who you are, and forget your family and companions.

They are not human, have no concept of time, and do not know whether it is time's preference or being forgotten by time.It seems like a god, as human friends, they have spent the fastest time growing and getting old, and the bond that belongs to them will end due to the death of one of them.

They are also not ghosts, so they can't blend in with them. They don't agree with their cannibalism, and they even take the initiative to kill evil ghosts.

After losing everything, the most intimate existence with him in this life faces the emptiness in the world, feeling his abruptness to the world.It seems that they can't find where they belong, they only have each other in this world.

——It seems to be an existence abandoned by the world.

It is because of this that I really want to be who I am, what my identity is, and whether I can get this—for any existence in this world, there is no doubt—a sense of identity.

[We are not humans, nor are we evil ghosts. 】

[There is no place for us on either side. 】

[If we are not even mixed race. 】

[Then what should we do. 】

"Cattail-san, bone-san." Butterfly Kanae frowned, and said in a voice so gentle that it made people feel sad, "You guys, do you want to meet the lord?"

Purgatory Xingshoulang looked over suspiciously, "Butterfly?"

He couldn't understand what Butterfly Kanae understood from the words of Natsuo. Even if Gemini said that he might have something to do with ghosts a second ago, but with Nezuko's precedent, the character that Nyoko has shown over the years is enough Let him agree.So he will not refute Butterfly Chanae's proposal - he is just wondering why she suddenly said such a thing, does their conversation have anything to do with the lord?

This time, Gemini's expression was very similar to that of Purgatory, they all looked at Butterfly Chanae who suddenly said such words in confusion and blankly.

Butterfly Chanae did not immediately answer their questions, but just repeated the question again.

The black and white twins looked at each other, and Cattail was the first to raise a smiling face, "Speaking of which, my brother and I have always been curious about what kind of existence that Lord Lord is like."

"I will contact the lord." After getting the consent, Butterfly Kanae stood up, greeted the three people present, and left voluntarily.

The three big men who were left behind looked at each other, not knowing what happened.Cattail was thinking, did he say something strange just now?Except for covering up Fu Sangshen's identity, he has thought carefully about the other words, and there is really nothing wrong with them!

"What the hell is Miss Kanae thinking..." Natsuo blinked, not even interested in the hagi cake left on the table, he shook his head, and said, "Since it's really Hakusan If you don't, your injuries in Purgatory will basically be fine!"

"However, I remember to supplement more nutrition and rest more recently. It is best to remember to replenish more blood. Although I used Baishan's ability, the blood lost at that time was real."

"Hmm! I understand!" Purgatory Xingshoulang nodded, "My lord also meant the same thing. I have given all my recent tasks to other pillars! So I will return to my full power as soon as possible!"

"Then let's do it first—if you have other things, you can ask us later." Catfish tail raised his bones, his tone was brisk, he was always able to adjust his mood very quickly, as if nothing happened just now Same, "My brother and I can go and see that Tanjiro!"

"Of course!" The blond-haired young man agreed heartily, and the words naturally shifted to his stepson who praised him.

"The Stove Gate Boy and the Stove Gate Girl are the most special existences I have ever seen! Whether it is the younger sister who worked hard to become a ghost, or the younger sister who is clearly a ghost but can sacrifice her life to protect humans! They are all things I have never seen before. A miracle I've seen!"

After saying this, Purgatory Kyojuro praised Kamado Tanjirou's hard work, talent, will and character, and then said, "Speaking of which, the yellow boy and the pig-headed boy are also working hard!"

"Although the yellow boy is always crying, it seems that he is always passive and timid! But in times of crisis, he will burst out with amazing courage and strength! Although he can only use one type, the yellow boy can rely on My own efforts have surpassed the limit and honed it to the extreme! As long as you see it, you will understand! He is a very dazzling and gorgeous boy!"

"There is also the pig-headed boy. Compared with the kitchen boy and the blond boy, he is the only one who has not been guided by a trainer from the beginning, but has developed a new breathing method because of his own talent and hard work! Just this, I'm not as good as him! Although it's just a simple slash, but when used in conjunction with his excellent physical ability and full concentration of breathing, it will have the power of a beast!"

"The only pity is that because of the different schools, I can only teach them the most basic sword skills, and I cannot adopt them as stepsons! That will only delay their progress!"

As one of the strongest nine pillars of the Demon Slayer Squad, Purgatory Kyojuro does not feel jealous of the talents of the successors, he only feels joy from the bottom of his heart, and wants to hand over everything he has developed to them.

He even continued, "When the young shoots grow vigorously, they will definitely become the new nine pillars supporting the Ghost Killing Team! I believe in them!"

Walking in the corridor of Purgatory House, Cattail sighed, "You really think highly of them."

"That's because they deserve this kind of evaluation!" Purgatory Xingshoulang's eyes were piercing, and his whole body exudes a spirit that can lead others forward, as if as long as he stands here, he is a beacon for others to move forward.

Well, speaking of which, Purgatory's golden-red hair color itself is very eye-catching.Cattail thought so.

The Dojo of the Purgatory Family is right in front, as soon as you walk in, the first thing you see is a blond boy with a flushed face. He looks like he has been injected with chicken blood so that he can stand aside and practice the stove door holding a wooden knife. Tanjiro was a little taken aback.

"What the hell happened, Zenitsu!" Kamado Tanjiro asked, he didn't even know whether he should worry about the other party, because... "It's been this kind of reaction since I came in, but it smells light and sweet a feeling of."

As for my wife Shanyi, she noticed that the three of them, led by Purgatory Xingshourou, who had already approached here, still couldn't get rid of the upward arc of the corners of their mouths.His expression looked a little funny, although there was still obvious dust on his body, as if he had just returned from a mission, but anyone could see that he was in a good mood now.

"Just, even if you praise me like that, I won't be so happy!"
