The white-haired girl smiled and waved her hand. "Also, as I just said, I am not a native of this world."
"Therefore, I have the utmost respect for you who dare to confront those man-eating monsters with your own flesh and blood in the dark of night when evil spirits roam."
She pointed to a wooden house not far away, suspended in mid-air by spider silk, "I just happened to be passing by and saw someone being attacked by an evil spirit, so I intervened."
"After that, I failed to explain things clearly in the first place, which was also my mistake."
"Well, since everyone has made mistakes, let's not take it too seriously~"
Hearing her say that...
"With your personality, you're more likely to be taken advantage of."
By now, Shinobu Kocho has figured it out.
The white-haired girl in front of me does indeed possess the superpower of 'manipulating ice', but it is definitely not 'blood demon magic'.
only……
"A 'Genshin Impact' from outside the world?"
Shinobu Kocho still felt somewhat saddened by this fact.
Speaking of which...
Currently, because Shinobu Kocho is preoccupied with matters concerning 'Ayaka Kamisato', she hasn't been able to immediately address the follow-up issues in other areas of the mountains and forests.
Naturally, he didn't attack Nezuko Kamado, who, despite becoming a demon, 'never eats people,' without knowing her true identity, as he did in the original storyline.
At this moment, the 'Pillar' level swordsmen who received orders from headquarters to come to support them, as well as the current 'Water Pillar', were also present.
The young man named 'Tomioka Giyuu' was less aloof and more slow-witted (in terms of emotional intelligence).
That's why the famous scene of 'I'm not disliked.jpg' unfolded in the original timeline.
However, since Shinobu Kocho is currently staying with Ayaka Kamisato, he can finally catch up with his junior brother.
At this time...
"Cough~"
Ling Shu's replicated consciousness did not maintain control of the white-haired girl's body.
At this moment, as Ayaka Kamisato's true consciousness returned, it was Ryouki's (true form) consciousness that appeared in mid-air beside him through the method of 'Shiki-chan'.
Shinobu Kocho is no stranger to this.
'Shikigami' are often mentioned in folk tales.
therefore……
"As expected, it is the power of the 'God'!"
The eighteen-year-old butterfly-adorned girl sighed to herself.
Just then...
"Nice to meet you, Insect Pillar - Shinobu Kocho."
Ling Shu's true consciousness, appearing remotely in the form of a 'young general', said with impeccable manners, "My name is Dongfang Ling Shu... Ah~ Please don't mind, I'm not actually here right now, I'm just communicating with you remotely using talismans."
and also……
Ling Shu (Shi Xiaojiang) smiled and said, "My young lady is new to this place, please take good care of her."
The words had barely left his mouth...
"Mr. Ling Shu, please don't say that~"
Ayaka seemed a little embarrassed.
I wonder if it was a reaction to the phrase "my young lady".
Or perhaps... she simply isn't used to bothering others too much?
In short...
“I have always longed for the life of a ‘traveler’. This time, I have the opportunity to come to a country in another world that is very similar to ‘Inazuma’. I am really looking forward to the rest of my journey.”
Ayaka looked at 'Shiki-chan (Ryouki)', "Mr. Ryouki, may I stay here a little longer?"
Regarding this request...
"Of course, no problem."
Ling Shu (Shiki Kosho) nodded. "However, if you want to stay here permanently, I'll have to talk to the local boss first."
He turned to Shinobu Kocho and said, "Miss Shinobu Kocho, if it's convenient, could you please inform them?"
"Of course, if it's inconvenient, I can arrange for Ayaka to leave now."
Ling Shu, who said those words, knew that no matter the reason, the Demon Slayer Corps would definitely not... or even dare not, let Ayaka roam freely outside.
therefore……
"I will convey your wishes to the lord."
Shinobu Kocho did not refuse Ryouki's (Shiki no Koshou) verbal request.
And not long after...
Within the Demon Slayer Corps, a bird called the 'Kasugai Crow' conveyed a message from headquarters.
Generally speaking...
"Capture Tanjiro and Nezuko, who is a 'demon,' and bring them back to headquarters."
"We would like to invite Ms. Ayaka Kamisato and Mr. Ryoki Higashikata to visit our headquarters."
"We must not be negligent, we must not be negligent."
……
With this order issued, members of the 'Kakuna,' the logistics organization secretly trained by the Demon Slayer Corps, entered Mount Natagumo to begin the cleanup work.
As for Ayaka and Ryoki (Shiki-chan)...
"Please follow me, Ms. Kamisato, Mr. Higashi."
Both of them naturally followed Shinobu Kocho, their guide.
Chapter Three 'Ghosts'
As the core founders of the Demon Slayer Corps, the Ubuyashiki family was already a powerful and prestigious clan in the Far East during the Heian period.
The current "Demon King - Muzan Kibutsuji", who has survived... or rather, has 'lived on the brink of death' for over a thousand years, comes from this family.
Perhaps because of the latter's many evil deeds, the direct descendants of the Ubuyashiki family, who share the same bloodline, have all been subjected to an unknown 'curse'.
Initially, newborns in the clan would die young due to their weak constitution and frequent illnesses. It was only after the head of the family began to marry women from the priestly clan that this fate of early death was avoided.
Even so, none of the direct descendants of the Ubuyashiki family lived past the age of thirty.
Today, a thousand years later, the current head of the Ubuyashiki family is a 23-year-old man named Kagaya Ubuyashiki.
He is so young, yet he is already afflicted by illness and doesn't have much time left.
Even his once handsome appearance has gradually become disfigured.
today……
"My lord, if you insist on seeing that traveler whose identity is questionable, please allow us to accompany you to ensure your safety."
"Yes, my lord. According to the message from the ninja, the traveler was accompanied by an unidentified creation that appears to be a 'shikigami'."
"If it's actually a disguised Blood Demon Art, the headquarters' address will be exposed directly."
……
Originally, Kagaya Ubuyashiki had planned to hold a 'Pillar Meeting' to discuss important matters in the near future, so he had already begun to send Kasugai Crow to gather all the 'Pillar'-level swordsmen at headquarters several days ago.
Now, apart from Shinobu Kocho and Giyu Tomioka, who are rushing back from the direction of Natagumo Mountain, the other seven 'Pillar' level swordsmen have gathered inside the Ubuyashiki family mansion.
at the moment……
"Kyojuro, Sanemi, Obanai, I know you are all worried about me, and I am very grateful for your concern."
Kagaya Ubuyashiki said in a gentle tone, "But this matter is no ordinary one, and I do not intend to let this opportunity slip by."
"If you insist on staying, you must agree to one condition."
Upon hearing this…
"Please enlighten me, my lord."
Apart from the three 'Pillar' level swordsmen whose names were called, the remaining four colleagues also responded.
At present...
"Today, as I meet with my guests who have come from afar, whatever we discuss, you must not do anything impolite."
Kagaya Ubuyashiki's tone became much more serious at this point, "If you can't do this, then you shouldn't attend..."
"My lord."
The current 'Wind Pillar', Sanemi Shinazugawa, interjected, asking earnestly, "If the visitors are guests, we will naturally not do anything impolite."
"But what if...they come as enemies?"
Hearing this question...
Hopefully, that won't happen.
Kagaya Ubuyashiki sighed helplessly, "If the information from Shinobu is entirely true, then this guest will be an existence that is countless times more powerful than 'Muzan Kibutsuji'."
"If he becomes our enemy..."
"We might have to prepare for the worst."
******
Without a doubt, the Demon Slayer Corps really gave Ayaka Kamisato and Ayaki (Shiki no Kosho) a lot of face in response to their appearance.
First and foremost, receiving both of them was given top priority.
Yes, even the matter of Tanjiro and Nezuko was postponed because of this.
