Nen users starting from Highschool of the Dead

Chapter 113 It's okay if you treat me as a substitute for your sister

Kanae Butterfly looked up, blushing as she secretly glanced at Su Yan.

She discovered that not only had the burning sensation on her face not subsided, but Su Yan's playful smile remained.

Without uttering a word, Kanae Butterfly chose to disappear directly from Su Yan's sight.

It wasn't until Kanae Butterfly disappeared that Makomo, who had been following Su Yan and had become his Nen beast, finally came to her senses in a daze.

She gently tugged at Su Yan's sleeve and asked, "My lord, is she an existence like me?"

"I've told you so many times, even though you are my spirit beast, you don't need to call me 'Master,' just call me by my name."

Su Yan turned around and looked at the somewhat dazed girl behind him with a headache, saying, "Or you can call me brother or something."

"Yes, brother, I understand, brother."

Makomo nodded in response.

However, just a few seconds later, the way Su Yan was addressed quickly returned to its original state.

Zhen asked Su Yan again in a light, airy voice, "So, is that older sister the same kind of person as me?"

grown ups? "

Su Yan couldn't help but sigh at this.

Perhaps Shizuka Marikawa and Makomo have more in common.

They all seem a bit dull.

However, Shizuka Marikawa's dazedness and Makomo's dazedness are not the same kind of dazedness.

If Shizuka Marikawa's dazedness is merely an attitude of being too lazy to bother with mundane matters...

It is a tactic of disguising one's innate intelligence by appearing foolish, making it easier for those around her to lower their guard.

It wasn't that she was actually dull; rather, it was a proactive adaptation to her surroundings.

Then Makomo really is stupid.

They even give the impression of being clumsy and slow to react compared to others.

Su Yan explained helplessly, "That girl is Shinobu Kocho's older sister, and also the former Flower Pillar of the Demon Slayer Corps. She was killed by Upper Moon Two of the Twelve Demon Moons two years ago."

"oh oh."

Makomo's eyes lit up, her mouth slightly agape in amazement. "Wow, amazing! Not only is my younger sister a Pillar-level member of the Demon Slayer Corps, but my older sister is a Pillar-level member too?"

"So, you came here to subdue that older sister and turn her into a Nen beast like me, right?"

Makomo raised her head, looked into Su Yan's eyes, and cleverly thought to herself.

I guess so.

Su Yan did not refute.

"But she's run away now—"

Makomo asked timidly, "So, do you want me to go and bring her back for the adults?"

"ha?"

Su Yan couldn't help but find Makomo's idea a bit funny.

Send Makomo to battle against Kanae Kocho, and after defeating Kanae Kocho, capture her and make her a Nen beast.

Is this some kind of Pokémon collecting game?

Putting aside the fact that he doesn't need to fight to subdue Kanae Kocho, he has plenty of ways to control her.

Even if you really treat this as a Pokémon game, then Kanae Kocho is still the Flower Pillar of the Demon Slayer Corps.

As for the dull-witted Makomo in front of us?

He's just a rookie swordsman who can't even beat a lowly demon in the Demon Slayer Corps recruitment selection.

How could you have the nerve to say something like that?

Are you awake?

"You're such a clever little devil."

Su Yan extended his thumb and middle finger, and gently flicked Zhen Gu's fair forehead.

"pain----"

Makomo covered the spot on her forehead where Su Yan had flicked her earlier with her small hand, and said in an ethereal tone.

Su Yan wanted to say something to Zhen Gu at this moment.

Suddenly, Shinobu Kocho, who was walking at the front, turned around and found that Su Yan behind her had fallen quite a distance away.

And standing there muttering to himself, I couldn't help but say, "Mr. Scumbag, what are you muttering about over there? Aren't you going to catch up with me?"

Perhaps it's because I've returned to the Butterfly Mansion.

Even Shinobu Kocho herself didn't realize that her tone of voice was much gentler than usual.

"They're here."

Su Yan responded.

She temporarily gave up bullying Makomo and quickly caught up with Shinobu Kocho, who was walking ahead.

As for the person Shinobu Kocho mentioned?

This is because she can't see the real mushrooms.

It's possible that Makomo had just become his Nen beast, or it could be due to the unique nature of the Demon Slayer world, where souls and post-mortem Nen are intertwined.

This results in Makomo being different from Snowballmon; her current state is still closer to that of a spirit.

If Su Yan wanted others to see her, she had to constantly inject her mental energy into Makomo.

Maybe it's because Makomo is a little socially anxious?

After parting ways with Tanjiro and the others, Makomo felt that it was good that only Su Yan could see her like this, so she did not ask Su Yan to transfer his Nen to her.

In other words, from Shinobu Kocho's perspective, Su Yan's communication with Kanae Kocho and Makomo just now was simply Su Yan suddenly and inexplicably stopping in place and talking to himself.

Perhaps Su Yan thought of his sister after seeing the Butterfly House?

Shinobu Kocho thought to herself, and then a ripple appeared in her eyes, and her little fists clenched unconsciously.

I miss you too, sister.

Sister, wait for me!

I will definitely find the Upper Moon demon that killed you and avenge you.

Very soon! Very soon!

Seemingly sensing Shinobu's inner thoughts, Su Yan followed her, placing his hand on her head and gently stroking her smooth, purplish-red short hair.

Thinking of Kanae Butterfly who had just disappeared before his eyes, Su Yan unconsciously revealed a cryptic smile.

Su Yan then looked at Shinobu Kocho and said softly, "Shinobu, you will find happiness."

"happiness?"

However, Su Yan's gentleness did not soothe the sadness in Shinobu's heart.

Shinobu Kocho reached out and slapped away Su Yan's hand that was on her head.

These things had nothing to do with me anymore the day my sister died.

However, Shinobu Kocho did not choose to tell Su Yan what she was thinking.

She simply put on her usual fake smile and changed the subject for Su Yan, saying, "What? Is Mr. Scumbag finally going to make a move on his ex-girlfriend's sister?"

"What a scumbag! He can maintain ambiguous relationships with multiple women at the same time!"

What if I said yes?

Su Yan looked directly into Shinobu's eyes with composure.

Shinobu Kocho's usually calm and unwavering purple eyes began to show signs of bewilderment at this moment.

As the only female Pillar-level member of the Demon Slayer Corps, and because she often imitates her older sister Kanae Kocho, she receives quite a few confessions of love from men.

But Shinobu's heart had never been so complicated as it was at this moment.

However, she was still the strong-willed Shinobu Kocho.

"Can!"

Shinobu Kocho's smile faded, and she looked at Su Yan seriously, saying, "As long as you can kill Muzan and Upper Moon Two to avenge my sister, it doesn't matter if you treat me as a substitute for her."
