As a general, she cannot be a good daughter of Kage.

The general looked at this natural scene and sighed with his chin slightly supported by his fingertips.

"Hmm~?"

After hearing this, Shinobu raised his eyebrows slightly as if to ask her to continue...

"Huh... the person who chooses the location must be very discerning."

How could she not understand when she saw the other party's small appearance? She felt helpless in her heart but still looked at the other party and praised him like this.

"Haha...Thank you for the compliment~ Come on, I'll take you around inside."

pat...

After hearing the general's praise, Xin smiled with satisfaction and then took the initiative to hold the other's delicate hand and entered the room.

"Tolerate…"

She was a little concerned from the beginning...

"Ok?"

The other person didn't look back...but still responded.

"I can walk by myself, no need to hold me."

Although she complained so much, she was still so passive and well-behaved as she was led by the other party.

"I'm afraid you'll get lost~?"

Shinobu turned his head and glanced at the white and tender palm in his hand, smiled inwardly and then answered like this.

"...How could I get lost following you like this?"

she general retorted.

"Just in case, the road here is quite roundabout~? Do you resent me holding your hand~?"

Not to mention age, in terms of personality... Subconsciously, I have the mentality of being an elder sister and taking care of my younger sister... At this moment, he asked teasingly to the woman behind him.

"..."

After hearing this, she subconsciously raised her eyes to look at the purple eyes that were also looking at her, and looked away awkwardly.

"...No objection, just...this may cause you inconvenience."

"Haha... In other words, you like it~?"

Shinobu asked teasingly as he leaned closer to her cheek.

"...I didn't say I like it either, so...don't try to tease me."

When the other party came so close to her, she turned her face away slightly and complained softly to him shyly.

"Pfft...okay~ let's go."

This reserved and shy look deeply poked into Shinobu's heart at this moment... But she didn't tease her too much. This was the so-called 'getting it done'.

"Where are we going?"

she asked.

"Well—I can show you the room where I'm staying first, or I can accompany me to see Tanjiro and the others. Of course, you can choose either one."

Shinobu gestured to the two roads on the left and right at the moment...one was leading to the ward and the other was leading to the residential area, letting her decide for herself.

"Huh... I'd better stay with you first."

She looked at the roads on both sides and then decided like this, because she knew that it was Shinobu's job to visit Tanjiro and the others, and she couldn't let the other party delay their business because of her.

"Okay, then come with me."

Ren was not surprised after hearing her answer, she just smiled casually. She also knew the purpose of the other party's decision. This kind of detail can best determine whether a person is thoughtful or not.

"Will it hinder you if I follow you?"

He asked worriedly while maintaining the appearance of being held by the other party.

"No... I'm just going to take a look. After all, I need to understand the patient's condition. It will be fine in a while."

The door to the ward where Tanjiro was sitting was still ajar, and the noise inside could be heard from afar, like a vegetable market.

"It seems nothing serious..."

Shinobu guessed this based on the energy level of the voice inside, and then he released each other's palms first and gently pushed open the door. The general felt that the other person's hand finally let go, and he squeezed his palms out of habit. The warmth that belongs to the other party remains.

Murata, who was in the room, was currently complaining to Tanjiro and the others who were lying on the hospital bed——

"The pillars are absolutely terrible!"

He kept grabbing Tanjiro's shirt and twisting it back and forth...

"Ugh!! Mr. Murata, my waist is not healed yet!"

Tanjiro shouted in pain.

"What happened?"

Since Zenitsu, my wife, who was fortunate enough to be left outside the mountain by the general, was the only healthy person here, he asked in confusion.

"In order to find out what happened at Natian Spider Mountain, I was called to report to the pillar meeting! All the pillars were staring at me fiercely! It was like hell!"

"What did they say?"

Tanjiro became a little concerned at this moment.

"They said that the quality of the team members had declined recently, and there were also team members who did not obey orders and caused trouble. Finally, they asked who our training was! They gave us a severe punishment! Is it useful? Say these things to a person like me ?Is it useful?! Really..."

clatter...

"It seems you are all in good spirits~"

Shinobu appeared behind Murata like a ghost, sighing in a delicate voice with a sinister smile.

"Ah!!!! It's Hashira! Butterfly-sama! And...ah! Rai, Raiden-sama!!"

After hearing this voice that was as terrifying to him as a devil, he instantly screamed like a little girl. He immediately stood up and bowed respectfully back and forth to the two purple beauties behind him. He knew that the general was the new commander. This matter has been spread among the team, and there are only a few female pillars!

"Hello~?"

Shinobu smiled slightly and said hello as if he didn't care.

"Uh!! I, I didn't say anything! I have to leave, excuse me! Two pillar-sama!!"

Whoosh!

A flash appeared and disappeared with a long puff of smoke.

"Are you in such a hurry? Be careful on the road."

Shinobu covered his mouth but did not forget to give instructions to the person who had disappeared.

"What's up with him?"

the general asked puzzledly.

"It's nothing...many members of the Demon Slayer Corps have symptoms of PTSD, so there's no need to worry."

Shinobu shook his head helplessly and patiently explained to her.

"Miss Thunderbolt, and Miss Butterfly...you guys..."

Tanjiro was stunned when he saw the two of them...the two in front of him were both pillars.

"How is your body?"

Shinobu came to the bed and looked at Tanjiro above and asked.

"Thank you...I'm feeling much better now."

Tanjiro answered her.

"Hmm...let me see..."

Then Shinobu reached out and touched the other person's back and then slapped it with his palm——

"Ugh! It hurts!"

Tanjiro actually screamed.

"Well - it's really much better... so almost -"

Having said this, she picked up the prescription on the table and looked at the contents... and smiled slightly.

"——Let's start preparing for functional recovery training."

"Functions restored?"

"Yes~"

She gave him a sinister smile that was beautiful but dark.

……

.........

After a few minutes--

"Uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!! I'm going to die!!!"

"Ughhhhhh!!!"

A scream like a slaughtered pig was heard in the spacious dojo, ah... Inosuke was acting in his true colors.

"What's wrong with them...?"

She shook her eyes and asked in confusion, what was going on with this scream that sounded like execution?

"Functional training~? It's okay, I won't die...Let's go...I'll take you to the residential area for a walk, haha~"

After saying that, the other party walked past her with a smile... and winked at her in the process.

"..."

This woman... sometimes it's better not to mess with her!

She looked at the other person's back with some confusion at the moment...she complained in her heart.
