Simultaneous travel: I am a talented person in all the worlds

Chapter 336 The Setting Sun
“Sister, their pulses are stable and they are physically fine. They should just have been affected by some kind of blood demon magic that can bewitch people.”

After carefully examining the middle-aged couple, Shinobu Kocho reported to her older sister, Kanae, who was walking towards her.
"Further assessment and treatment will likely have to wait until they regain consciousness."

"oh, I understand now."

Kanae Butterfly nodded:
"Then, I'll trouble you and Makomo to take these two back to the Butterfly Mansion and take good care of them."

"Nothing, this is what I should do."

Shinobu Kocho nodded habitually at first, then suddenly realized something was wrong:

"Sister? Aren't you coming back with us?"

"Although the Fifth Lower Moon has been killed, based on the intelligence we received earlier, there should still be some other demons lurking in this town. We must completely eliminate these hidden dangers."

Kanae shook her head and gently tugged at the left sleeve of Demon Slayer Mo Yu:

"Don't worry about my safety, I have Mo Yujun with me. He's a powerful warrior who can easily kill even Upper Moon Two!"

A hint of frustration flashed in Shinobu's eyes as she looked down at the still unconscious couple.

Knowing in his heart that he was indeed the weakest in combat, it was more appropriate for him to take the two of them back to the Butterfly Mansion.

"...Alright then. Sister, you must take good care of yourselves."

"Well, don't worry."

Kanae Kocho chuckled and waved goodbye to her and Makomo.

After Shinobu Kocho and Makomo's figures completely disappeared at the end of the street.

Kanae Butterfly slowly withdrew her gaze, and the relaxed smile on her face disappeared, replaced by a tender expression tinged with apology.

She turned her head to look at the Demon Slayer Mo Yu beside her:

"I'm sorry, Mo Yujun. Because of my willfulness, I've put you... in danger again."

Although, Mo Yu had not told her any information just now.

However, they can find the Demon Slayer Corps' safe house from the Lower Moon 5 and ambush them there in advance.

Furthermore, Mo Yu's unusual urging of her to return to the Butterfly Mansion...

All of this already explains a lot.

It should be noted that in the past, as long as no serious injury was sustained during the mission, after each mission was completed, there would be no further consequences.

Both Mo Yu and Shinobu will try every means to delay their return to the Butterfly Mansion as much as possible.

Then, I took her for a stroll around the town where the mission was taking place, letting her enjoy the local cuisine and giving her more time to relax and rest.

But now, as darkness was about to fall completely, he unusually wanted to leave this place as soon as possible.

Therefore, there must be a crisis here that, in his judgment, is one that he is unable to deal with or protect himself from!

For the swordsmen of the Demon Slayer Corps, this crisis usually only comes from demons!
A demon stronger and more ferocious than the Lower Moon Five!

Out of his own kindness, and his deep-seated hatred and disgust for ghosts.

Kanae Kocho couldn't run away because she was worried about her own safety, even though she knew there were other demons lurking in the town.

But she wasn't stupid, nor did she have any desire to die.

Therefore, she sent her two weaker sisters, Shinobu Kocho and Makomo, away.

With her and Demon Slayer Mo Yu's strength, as long as they are not ambushed and seriously injured, their combat power will be affected.

Therefore, even if facing Upper Moon One, or even the Demon King Muzan Kibutsuji, even if ultimately defeated, he should still have the ability to escape.

The only person she felt guilty about was Mo Yujun, who was standing beside her...

"This time, let Mo Yujun take command. I will... completely obey any order from Mo Yujun."

Kanae Butterfly grasped his hand and said solemnly:
"I will stay with Mo Yujun, no matter what."

Gui Mie Mo Yu lowered his eyes and glanced at the two hands clasped tightly together. He suddenly felt that he had once again been easily manipulated by the gentle woman beside him.

However, as the weaker one being protected, Kanae Kocho was able to voluntarily relinquish command and indicate that she would obey orders completely.

In contrast, those who knowingly act recklessly despite the perilous situation and their own inadequacy.

This forces the entire team, including the protected members, into a trap.

She's already so much better.

It could even be described as a massacre!
This is also why Mo Yu in Demon Slayer likes Kanae Butterfly.

She is gentle and kind, but by no means mindless. She has her own principles and beliefs, and she is also mindful of the existence of others.

Even though she insisted on risking her life to see if there was any chance to deal with the other ghosts.

In Mo Yu's view, this made her image in his heart more three-dimensional, rather than a vase without her own thoughts.

emmm.

Actually, this is entirely due to the ultimate filter effect of "beauty is in the eye of the beholder." The above evaluation is only applicable to Kanae Kocho herself.

If it were anyone else, Mo Yu would absolutely ignore them, simply knock them out and take them away, or just run away on his own.

But then he met Kanae's gaze, which was filled with apology and trust.

Mo Yu, the demon slayer, even worried that she was blaming herself too much, and took the initiative to comfort her:
"Actually, whether you stay or leave, the outcome will be the same. I suspect that the demon's motive for this action is because of Doma's death."

If that's the case, then this was a trap set specifically for me. From the moment I stepped into this town, even if I wanted to leave, it was already too late.

He remembered the two strange smells he had caught when he first left the train station.

At that time, he wasn't quite sure if the smell was emitted by a ghost.

But now, he is completely certain.

Demon Slayer Mo Yu glanced at the setting sun, which was already mostly below the horizon:

“This house is definitely no longer habitable. I’m worried that the ghost might attack Shinobu and the others. I’ll go with them first and make sure they get away safely.”

"Well, it's up to you."

Kanae nodded obediently and let him hold her hand even tighter.

Currently, the available and effective intelligence is far too limited.

Although she had decided to stay and deal with the ghost, she didn't actually have a detailed plan in mind on how to do it.

While Kanae Kocho didn't notice, when Mo Yu from Demon Slayer went to look at the sunset, his gaze lingered for half a second on a three-story building not far away.

'That smell...it's the same one I smelled when I first left the train station. However, only one of them remains; the other isn't here.'

Demon Slayer Mo Yu, with Kanae by his side, trailed far behind Shinobu and the other two, already conceiving their next battle plan.

Since the decision to fight has been made, we must naturally find a way to achieve the greatest results with the least cost.

Currently, the enemy is in the dark, while we are in the light.

He could at most offer some guidance on when to launch an attack, but the initiative remained entirely in the hands of the enemy.

However, once he roughly guessed that he was the opponent's ultimate target, the 'geographical advantage' of deciding where to fight fell into his control.

He was unfamiliar with the town's terrain.

Therefore, Mo Yu decided to hold the final battle in front of the train station.

The reason for choosing this place is very simple.

The large open space provides a wide view, making it easier for him to control the overall situation and greatly reducing the possibility of being attacked by ghosts.

At the same time, there are no residents in that area, so ghosts cannot use blood packs to recover their health.

If he can handle the ghosts that are about to appear, then he will handle them himself.

If it can't be resolved...

He's already prepared to hire a "player" and ask the experts in the group for help!

[Demon Slayer: @Qin's Moon, can I borrow your machine gun?]

[Qin Shi: Okay. However, I've used up most of my bullets; I only have about two thousand, less than three thousand left.]

[Demon Slayer: Thanks, boss. That should be enough.]

In the three-story building, Nightmare stood by the third-floor window, taking in most of the battle scenes that had just taken place.

"While they are indeed very strong, and their swordsmanship styles are somewhat similar, however..."

"There was absolutely no burning sensation, the kind that makes ghosts feel extremely uncomfortable, in the remaining traces of battle within the Eternal Bliss Sect."

"So... the one who truly killed Lord Doma is still hiding behind him? Interesting!"

He relayed all the information he had gathered to that supreme being.

As expected, the scoundrel not only failed to commend him for risking his life to gather intelligence, but also showed no appreciation whatsoever.

Instead, he was furious about the death of Lower Moon Five and that this bunch of useless people had not yet completed their mission and found out who was fighting Doma!
He, along with the remaining twelve Ghost Moons, was given a good scolding!
Having grown accustomed to his boss's foul mouth, Nightmare felt no resentment or anger whatsoever; instead, a look of extreme ecstasy appeared on his face.

"Ah... Your voice is still so magnetic and captivating! It seems I need to work even harder."

Even with such a twisted nature, he still hasn't become an Upper Moon demon.

It can only be said that Nightmare was born a little too late, before the pits ahead of her were already filled.

The news that Demon Slayer Mo Yu and the Flower Pillar seemed to be preparing to leave made the Upper Rank Demons even more restless.

If we just let Mo Yu leave peacefully like this...

Then, whether it's the Upper Moon demons or those useless Lower Moon demons, they all have to bear that person's even more terrifying and violent wrath!
