Chapter 126

There have been many disappearances in Nagano Prefecture. According to the survivors, there are monsters hiding in the darkness that are robbing humans every night.

The Demon Slayer Corps, which received the news, immediately took it seriously. It is very likely that the demons are haunting Nagano Prefecture, so the newly promoted Insect Pillar Kocho Shinobu led the team, two Class C swordsmen and several Class E, Class D and Class G swordsmen to carry out the ghost hunting mission together.

Insect Pillar Kocho Shinobu, a newly promoted pillar-level swordsman a month ago, for some young Demon Slayer members who have just joined, they may think that this newly promoted pillar looks very friendly and has a very gentle voice.

But for most Demon Slayer members, everyone knows how much the Insect Pillar has changed. Thinking of this, almost everyone will feel a little depressed. The sacrifice of the Mori Pillar is a big blow to the Demon Slayer Corps.

Class C swordsman Matsudaira secretly looked up at the Insect Pillar standing on the roof above the two of them.

The big violet eyes reflected the moonlight and looked extremely bright. Her delicate face was always wearing a perfect smile, and her expression was very calm and peaceful. Her hair, which had always been short, had grown a little longer. Shinobu Kocho looked really gentle.

However, Matsudaira withdrew his gaze with some regret. He had performed missions with Mori Pillar Shinichi Moriki before, and at that time he could often see Shinobu Kocho who had not yet become a pillar.

Shinobu Kocho at that time had a somewhat willful and straightforward personality, which made Matsudaira always miss his sister who was killed by the evil ghost. Only when Shinobu Kocho and Mori Pillar were playing around, Matsudaira felt that was Shinobu Kocho's true personality.

Half a year ago, it was said that Mori Pillar, Hana Pillar and Shinobu Kocho encountered the legendary upper-string demon, and finally Hana Pillar was seriously injured, and Mori Pillar was unable to come back.

That is to say, from that day on, Lady Kocho Shinobu was like a different person, more and more like her sister Lady Hana-shi. But gentleness is given to humans, and the means used by Lady Insect-shinobu to deal with evil spirits are not cruel. Matsudaira is sure that the Insect Breathing is definitely the most painful way to kill evil spirits.

"It must be that the sacrifice of Lady Mori-shinobu was too much of a blow..." Matsudaira muttered.

Kocho Shinobu lowered her head, smiled at Matsudaira, tilted her head slightly, and snorted faintly from her nose: "Hmm?"

Matsudaira quickly shut her mouth, but it was at this time! A shrill scream suddenly came from a street not far away, "Ah!!!"

"Something is happening!" Matsudaira jumped up, the Sun Wheel Sword was instantly unsheathed, locked the direction of the scream, and quickly rushed to the street over there.

The Geng-level swordsman Tsuruko next to Matsudaira was originally a little sleepy, but was also awakened by the sudden scream. She grabbed the Sun Wheel Sword and quickly followed the pace of her predecessor Matsudaira.

As for the Insect Pillar Kocho Shinobu? She had already rushed towards the direction of the scream like a fluttering butterfly, many times faster than Matsudaira and Tsuruko.

In the dark night, a scream almost attracted all the lurking Demon Slayers. They quickly surrounded them from all directions. The word "滅" printed on the black uniforms was clearly visible. The various colored Nichirin swords were also tightly held in their hands. Everyone had a resolute look on their faces.

Only Kocho Shinobu's expression was still very gentle and calm, but her slightly frowned eyebrows still showed that her heart was not as calm as it seemed on the surface, "Evil Ghost!"

... . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

Bang! A woman in a kimono was grabbed by the mouth and pressed against the wall. Although the terrified woman could not make a sound, she still struggled violently, with panic in her eyes.

A gray-white claw was firmly pressed on the woman's mouth. The owner of the claw was a hideous demon.

The demon with exposed fangs and different patterns on his face looked at the woman he caught displeased.

The demon had green patterns on his forehead, nose and under his eye sockets that formed the Chinese character "工". His orange-black hair was tied into four buns. Two small black characters "下陸" could be vaguely seen in his left light purple eye.

A lower-string demon!

Yes, the one who caught the woman was a lower-string demon. However, Kamae, who had just been promoted to the lower-string demon, was not in a very good mood.

As one of the twelve demon moons, he should have the appearance of the twelve demon moons. The humans he ate should not be high-level, but at least they should be young and healthy, right?

But what made Kamae unhappy was that he found that the woman he caught, although she looked bright and beautiful in a kimono, had a dirty disease in her body! It's really disgusting.!

"What are you doing? Women like you are dressed like this, it really makes me angry!" Kamahue bared its fangs, suddenly approached the woman and said unhappily, then grabbed the woman's claws and began to shrink them, and soon pierced the woman's face.

He didn't intend to eat her, but he didn't intend to let her go. Just when he was about to use force in his hands to crush the desperate woman to death, he suddenly felt a chill behind him!

Without thinking too much, Kamahue's body flashed quickly, turned into a residual image, and retreated more than ten meters in the blink of an eye.

And at the moment when Kamahue retreated, a slender, peculiarly shaped Nichirin sword stabbed at the place where Kamahue had just stood.

Kamahue stabilized his body and looked at the figure that suddenly appeared. When he saw the black Demon Slayer Corps uniform that had just appeared under the butterfly feather weaving, his pupils shrank, "Demon Slayer Corps? Are you from the Demon Slayer Corps?" His tone was full of fear.

But Kocho Shinobu didn't answer Kamahue, but turned her head to look at the woman who collapsed on the ground because of excessive fear, and said softly: "Madam, are you okay? If you can, please leave here quickly, and leave the next thing to us."

The woman who heard this seemed to be saved, and nodded frantically with tears, then struggled to get up, ignoring the wound on her face, and stammered thank you while leaving this dangerous place.

Until the woman left, Kocho Shinobu turned her eyes back to Kamahue. When she saw the "lower land" in Kamahue's eyes, Kocho Shinobu's mouth opened slightly, seeming a little surprised.

"Ah, it's still a lower-rank demon, it's rare, demon, first meeting, I'm Kocho Shinobu of the Demon Slayer Corps, I'm very happy to meet you~" Kocho Shinobu held the Sun Wheel Sword in one hand, with a warm smile on her face.

Kamazawa bared his fangs and teeth, "Damn it! It's actually the Pillar! Are you kidding me? I've only been a Lower Moon for less than a month!"

At the same time, swish! swish! swish! Several figures appeared from all directions, and the swordsmen of the Demon Slayer Corps held the Nichirin Swords and surrounded Kamazawa tightly.
