Artoria wants to read people's hearts

Thinking of this, she took a deep breath.

With a light release of the left hand, the elastic rubber band directly ejected the mud pellet wrapped in it viciously.

In the next second, there was only a shrill "cuckoo~!" scream.

A gray pigeon landed on the ground with a "bang", its legs twitched, and it just turned its head and drove west.

What a pity, suck~(?﹃?*)

Artoria smiled sadly (heartily), then stood up straight and walked in front of the pigeon, bent down and picked it up from the ground.

Fortunately, the majesty of the king was finally preserved.

Turning her head, she shook the pigeon in her hand towards the butterfly that had come close.

"Shin, look."

Like a child, she showed off her prey to the girl.

"I just shot a pigeon. I'll ask Ms. Aoi Kanzaki to cook you a bowl of pigeon soup tonight."

There are sparkles in the eyes, and that cute look really makes people laugh.

With a smile on the corner of his mouth, Butterfly Ninja nodded with dignity.

"If that's the case, then I'll be more respectful than obedient."

"But having said that——" she pointed to the slingshot in Artoria's hand, "—where did you get this?"

Looking down in the direction of the other's finger, Artoria smiled knowingly, "You said that."

"This slingshot was made for me by a child who is undergoing treatment in the Butterfly House."

Stepping down the corridor, she put the pigeon in her hand aside.

"The name is Taro Yamada. He was seriously injured in a confrontation with a ghost in a mission before. He has been recuperating here for more than half a month."

Ah... Taro Yamada.

There seems to be such a person among the patients in Butterfly House.

Tilting his head, Butterfly Shinobi pulled out his information from his mind.

Male, 17 years old, 'G' level player, based on the time of treatment, his injury should be almost healed.

Wait a moment.....

Butterfly Shinobu suddenly discovered a blind spot.

By the way, you obviously look about the same age as him, why do you call him a child? ┏(゜ロ゜;)┛

"........."

Forget it, calling someone a child may be Pendragon's personal hobby.

Shaking her head, she swallowed the complaints in her heart again.

But the strange thing is, how did these two people know each other?

Perhaps seeing the question on the girl's face, Arturia began to explain in the next sentence.

"Staying alone is sometimes too boring, so sometimes, I often go to the medical house to see if there is anything I can do to help."

"So after going back and forth, I became familiar with the patients there." After a pause, she added, "Although I was a little clumsy at first, everyone is very gentle to me."

This is not a matter of course.

Hearing this sentence, Butterfly couldn't help but think so.

After all, who would hate the blond, blue-eyed, delicate-looking Arturia who is gentle and serious.

For such an excellent and charismatic person, no one would hate her at all.

Lowering her eyelashes, she was a little helpless, and also raised the corners of her mouth in a funny way.

"Speaking of which, Shinobu, you should have come here specifically to find me."

Stretching out her hand to straighten the haori on her body, Arturia asked suspiciously, "Is there anything you want to do with me?"

Ah.......Almost forgot the business.

Sighing lightly, the black-haired girl patted her forehead in frustration.

"That's true."

She put away her annoyed look, then smiled, "Didn't you say you wanted to learn breathing techniques?"

"Yes, I did say so."

Nodding her head, Artoria was stunned for two seconds, then suddenly came to her senses.

"Could it be that you have already communicated?"

"That's right, I've already talked to you over there."

She replied in a gentle voice, the whole person looks like the spring breeze at the moment.

Butterfly Shinobu was originally a rare beauty. At this moment, she stood in front of the blond girl with full eyes, with slender fingers and a slender waist. Her purple eyes were as gentle as the moonlight.

"Purgatory Xingshourou is the current Yan Zhu of our Ghost Killing Team. I think his breathing method and personality should be compatible with yours."

Purgatory...King Juro?

I have never heard of this name.

Arturia blinked, and chose to continue listening to the girl's explanation obediently.

"Actually, I wanted to find Feng Zhu..." Die Nin frowned, and then sighed helplessly, "...but Bu Si Chuan disagreed with his life and death. "

"Feng Zhu's temper is a bit bad, and he has already rejected them, so..."

Scratching her cheek with her hand, she looked a little embarrassed.

"So I went to find Mr. Purgatory. He has a very forthright personality. When he heard that you wanted to learn breathing techniques to help others, he happily agreed on the spot."

"All in all...it's almost such a process."

"Pendragon, what do you think?" Butterfly Ninja handed over the final choice to her, "If you don't want to learn the Breath of Fire, I can ask someone else."

Arturia was taken aback when she heard the words, and after she realized it, she shook her head and refused with a chuckle.

"I don't need other people. If Mr. Purgatory is willing to teach me, it is definitely my honor."

"Ninja, thank you." The blond girl thanked Butterfly Ninja quietly, "You have taken my request very seriously. This really makes me very happy."

Like boiling water, the joy in Artoria's heart was also bubbling and bubbling.

"If possible, please tell Mr. Purgatory for me..." She paused for a while, then suddenly changed her words under the suspicious eyes of the black-haired girl, "... .No, instead of telling me, let me personally thank Mr. Purgatory."

Her eyes were smudged with gentleness, and those clear eyes had the temperature of the sun.

"I don't think there is a better way to express how grateful I am right now than to say thank you in person at this moment."

Black headband, snow-white kimono, and blue feather coat.

The girl with the most beautiful face is looking at Butterfly Ninja with a clear and clear look at this moment.

Well......

What a foul.

With this person staring at her with these eyes, no matter who it is, they probably wouldn't have the heart to say no to her.

Sighing resignedly, Die Die nodded in agreement.

Well.......

In fact, at the beginning, she originally wanted to take Pendragon to see Mr. Purgatory.

Although the purpose of this trip was achieved, I don't know why I feel a little complicated.

With a delicate state of mind, Butterfly Shinobi followed behind her.

After watching Pendragon deliver the dead pigeon to Aoi Kanzaki with her own eyes, and seeing the other party's surprised and smug expression, she finally stroked her forehead helplessly.

Really... just like a child.

After explaining that the pigeon was going to be made into pigeon soup, the two of them quickly said goodbye to Aoi Kanzaki.

After all, they are not procrastinators. Since they said they were going to visit Mr. Purgatory, why not go now.

Moreover, Yanzhu's house is located halfway up the mountain, not far away, so it is very easy to visit.

In fact, not only Yanzhu lived here, but the houses of other Zhus were also located on this mountain.

On the peak of the entire headquarters of the Ghost Killing Squad, the residences of the pillars are centered on the lord's house, spreading outwards in a circular manner in the sense of protection.

This also means that in this mountain, the high-end combat power of the entire ghost killing team is gathered here.

Excellent and powerful people will be sought after no matter where they go.

And if you are lucky enough to get the favor of one of the pillars......

No, even if it's just a little bit of pointers, it's a great blessing for ordinary members of the Demon Slayer Squad.

After all, they are a group of people who are always jumping back and forth on the edge of life and death.

Even if it only changed a little bit after being pointed out, but between life and death, this change may be insignificant, but it may save their lives in battle.

So for them, the headquarters is like a paradise.

But the 'lucky' Artoria didn't know about this matter.

At this moment, she was standing at the gate of Yan Zhu's house, holding the pastry sponsored by Butterfly Ninja in her hand.

Taking a deep breath, she raised her hand and knocked on the closed door.

Chapter 7 Mmm!Very energetic! (two in one)

Artoria and Die Ren sat at the guest table, facing Mr. Purgatory, facing each other.

"Hmm, you are welcome!"

Warm and kind tone, hearty Kyoto dialect.

The current Yanzhu is handsome, and his hair color is also very conspicuous, making people can't help but think of a burning flame.

But compared to flames...it feels more like a burning owl.

But anyway, his eyes were bright and his brows were straight.

And this upright appearance easily won Artoria's favor.

So unconsciously, she also replied loudly.

"Please forgive my sudden visit, a little care is not a respect, please accept this pastry!"

After she finished speaking, she handed the oil paper bag she had been carrying to the other party.

Even if it's just a small bag of rough snacks that are a bit broken, Lian Ji Xing Shou Lang still happily went on.

"Haha, very good, very energetic!"

He opened the package of rough snacks in front of the two of them, then picked up a piece and put it in his mouth.

"good to eat!"

The flaming young man commented loudly, and then crushed another piece with a "Kacha Kacha".

After the two pieces of thick snacks were completely swallowed, he put the oil paper bag aside, turned his head and looked at the two of them.

"I heard Butterfly Shinobi mentioned you, Arturia Pendragon, this is your name, right!"

The young man's expression was still bright, and with the ups and downs of his movements, the corner of Haori's sleeve brushed against the handle of the knife.

Even in his own home, he still wears the westernized black uniform like the male students in school.

In addition to the black uniform, he also wore a haori, with flame-like patterns on the hem.

And—even when meeting guests, he didn't take off his saber.

"That's right, Arturia Pendragon, that's my name."
