Demon Slayer: I am a Demon.

As for explaining to these Demon Slayer Corps swordsmen that he is different from other demons, that he has never loved humans, and asking them to let him go?

He had never thought of such a naive idea.

For the Demon Slayer Corps swordsmen who have a deep-seated hatred for demons, they won't listen to what you have to say; they will simply raise their Nichirin Blades without hesitation and cut off your neck.

Even if you encounter a Demon Slayer Corps swordsman who is willing to listen to you, they won't believe you because no one would believe that demons don't eat people.

Moreover, he would never entrust his life or death to someone else; that would be utterly ridiculous.

He could only trust himself.

He could only feel at ease when he had his own life in his own hands.

…………

I don't know how long I ran

The darkness ahead was gone; a stretch of lights could be seen in the distance. Before we knew it, we had arrived in a town. Compared to the silence of the wilderness and the town at night, the city was still quite lively.

Su Mu stopped and turned around warily, but found no trace of the Demon Slayer Corps' demon hunters.

Didn't they notice me?

Su Mu said in a low voice.

It is highly likely that after hearing the voice of the demon who had once hidden with him in the underground cave from afar, he turned and ran without hesitation, without ever encountering the Demon Slayer Corps swordsman. The probability that the other party did not notice him is extremely high.

"No, we must never have such thoughts."

However, Su Mu immediately suppressed such thoughts. This concerned his life and death, and he could not afford to be careless.

We cannot take chances.

"If they discover my whereabouts, they will definitely come after me. Where should I hide?"

He pondered for a moment, then finally fixed his gaze on the bustling town ahead.

In the bustling town, where people come and go in a hurry, even if a demon were to enter this lively and prosperous place, it would not cause the slightest ripple.

Hiding in a big city is also an excellent option.

Moreover, he knew that many demons were hiding in bustling towns, and the more lively the place, the better they could conceal themselves. If he remembered correctly, Gyutaro and Daki from the Twelve Demon Moons were hiding in the red-light district of a certain city, a place that never sleeps.

Moreover, the 'Hiko Dojo' is located in this city, which makes it more convenient for me to use the 'Flying Sword Style'.

While thinking, he observed his surroundings and only felt slightly relieved after confirming that no Demon Slayer Corps members had come looking for him.

Only then did he remember that he was carrying someone on his back, so he hurriedly turned around.

As the flowers fell, Kanao's face turned deathly pale. Clearly, the little girl's frail body was not yet able to adapt to his rapid running speed.

After all, with the speed of a demon's body, running at full speed is already as fast as a galloping horse, so the journey would definitely be bumpy enough.

He quickly put Koya Hana down and gently patted the girl's back.

"Are you okay?"

He inquired with concern.

The chestnut blossoms fell. Kanao shook her head.

Even so, he lingered there for a while, and when the girl's complexion had improved, he straightened their clothes again before saying softly, "Let's go."

The girl nodded.

Su Mu also led Ayumi Hanako towards the town, walking very slowly to take care of her.

They soon entered the town.

Even at night, the town is extremely bustling, with lanterns hanging from the shops along the roadside illuminating the surrounding area.

At the entrance of Kabukicho, a gorgeously dressed geisha holds a white fan to cover half of her face, revealing the other half of her face shyly. When a customer enters, amidst the geisha's gasp, a man laughs and puts his arm around the geisha's slender waist as he walks through the door.

Various stalls were set up on both sides of the road, and vendors shouted loudly to passersby.

For Kanao Aoi, who only ventures out at night to collect trash and spends most of her time at home, this was her first time entering a town.

This was the first time I had ever seen such a bustling town.

For Kanao Suhua, the streets of the small village were deserted at night, with hardly any people in sight, but here, it was even more lively than during the day.

It was many times more lively.

You can often see all sorts of strange things that you've never seen before.

Many foods I've never seen before.

The girl's eyes were wide open, as if she wanted to memorize everything.

As Su Mu walked, he observed his surroundings, becoming increasingly cautious. Only after confirming that no one was following him did he turn his attention to Kanao Aoi, finding the girl's wide-eyed expression somewhat amusing.

Passing by a street stall, Su Mu stopped and whispered to Kanao Suhua:

"Wait here for a moment."

Su Mu suddenly left, leaving her all alone. Although the surroundings were bustling, Su Hualuo and Kanao felt a sudden emptiness in their hearts, and an extremely panicked feeling spread through them.

Before the chestnut blossoms fell, Kanao waited too long; Su Mu returned shortly afterward.

I bought you a hair clip.

A blue hair clip with a butterfly pattern.

Su Mu smiled and gently placed the butterfly hair clip on Koya Koya's head, securing her hair.

"She's getting prettier and prettier, and she looks more and more like the real person."

Looking at Kanao Aoi, who was wearing a butterfly hair clip, she seemed like a character who had stepped out of an anime.

As the chestnut blossoms fell, Kanao blankly reached out and touched her head, touching the butterfly hair clip. Her beautiful pinkish-purple eyes blinked slightly. It was the first time she had ever worn something like this. Although the hair clip was icy cold, it felt warm to the touch.

Su Mu glanced at Su Hualuo Kanao up and down, then took the girl's hand and continued walking forward, only to feel that the girl was holding his hand even tighter.

He couldn't help but look down at Kanao. The girl just then looked up, her beautiful pinkish-purple eyes looking at him, sparkling as if they were glowing.

He paused for a moment, then shook his head and continued walking forward.

Soon, they arrived at the entrance of the 'Hiko Dojo'.

Su Mu led Ayumi Hanako and Kanao into the dojo. As they passed the dojo's spacious training ground, a man holding a sword stood quietly.

Wearing a red kimono, with reddish-brown hair in a ponytail, and a slightly short stature, she looked delicate and frail. Combined with her somewhat cute face, she resembled a girl even more.

but……

For some inexplicable reason, an extremely dangerous feeling made his hair stand on end.

This made Su Mu stop in his tracks and look at the other person.

Chapter 26 Kenshin Himura

training ground

Su Mu stopped, looked up, and saw a man with reddish-brown hair, holding a knife, standing quietly with his eyes closed.

As if sensing something, the man with reddish-brown hair suddenly opened his eyes. In an instant, a chilling aura made him unconsciously take a small step back.

Even just one glance from him was enough to make Su Mu feel breathless with the imposing aura in his eyes.

The man with reddish-brown hair opened his eyes, saw Su Mu, nodded slightly, then closed his eyes again, holding the knife, and continued to stand there quietly, seemingly immersed in his own world, no longer paying attention to anything around him.

Su Mu glanced at the man again before leading Su Hualuo and Xiang Naihu toward a house next to the training ground.

He knocked on the door.

Soon, footsteps could be heard coming from inside the house.

The door opened quickly, and 'Arakawa Akihiro' came out yawning. Seeing that it was Su Mu, he said helplessly, "It's so late, I thought you weren't coming."

"Sorry to bother you."

"It's nothing, after all, you paid a lot more money."

Arakawa Akihiro shook his head, but his gaze involuntarily fell on the little girl beside him, and he asked with some confusion, "Who is this?"

“This is my friend’s child. He asked me to take care of him these past few days, but I couldn’t leave, so I just brought him with me.”

Su Mu explained.

Arakawa Akihiro didn't pay much attention to these things.

"Oh right, I saw a man when I came in just now. He looked really powerful. He was..."

Upon hearing Su Mu's words, Arakawa Akihiro probably knew who it was, and a respectful expression appeared on his face: "He is our senior brother, Himura Kenshin, who is also Master's most powerful disciple, the one most likely in our Hiko Dojo to defeat Master and seize the title of Battosai, and currently the most powerful person in the Hiko Dojo besides Master."

"Kenshin Himura!"

Su Mu sighed, no wonder it felt so dangerous to him.

This character belongs to the cast of "Rurouni Kenshin," and is a main character just like Tanjiro in "Demon Slayer."

"Next, I will continue to explain the techniques of the 'Flying Sword Style' to you..."

Arakawa Akihiro also spoke at this moment.

"it is good."

Su Mu sat up straight and nodded seriously.

………………

Time flies

Su Mu diligently followed Arakawa Akihiro in learning the "Flying Sword Style." Facing the threat of the Demon Slayer Corps, he desperately wanted to master this swordsmanship specifically designed for killing, in order to improve himself.

An hour later, 'Arakawa Akihiro' also stopped teaching: 'It's too late, let's end it here for today.'

"it is good."

Su Mu nodded, and at the same time beckoned to Su Hualuo. Kanao, the girl who had been sitting quietly in the corner of the room immediately ran to Su Mu's side.
