Chapter 100:Tokito Muichiro
---
Kanae returned to the Butterfly House with a tired face. Aoi immediately went to meet her and handed her a glass of water.
"Kanae-sama, are you okay?"
Kanae waved her hand, took the water, and drank it all.
"Have Mr. Aomura and Shinobu come back?"
Aoi shook her head. "Not yet."
Kanae sighed, a bit of worry appearing on her face. "I don't know what the situation is. Have they found Upper Moon Five?"
Aoi didn't speak. She was too scared to do anything when facing ordinary demons. She couldn't imagine how terrifying the Twelve Demon Moons, especially the Upper Moons, were.
Although she was very tired, Kanae did not rest and kept waiting in the room. On the one hand, she was worried about the safety of Shinobu and Mr. Aomura, and on the other hand, she was concerned about Upper Moon Five.
Time passed slowly. When it was almost dawn, two figures appeared in the room. Kanae, who had been waiting eagerly, immediately reacted and went to meet them.
"Shinobu, Mr. Aomura, you are back!"
Shinobu could tell at a glance that her sister had not slept all night. She got straight to the point with the issue she was most concerned about.
"Sister, Mr. Aomura has defeated Upper Moon Five, Gyokko."
"Did he really defeat Gyokko?"
Kanae was in high spirits. Although Mr. Aomura had been killing one Upper Moon after another recently, the Upper Moons were still formidable adversaries that the Demon Slayer Corps struggled to cope with.
"It was actually quite easy to defeat him. Gyokko had no power to fight back in front of Mr. Aomura. It mainly took a lot of time to find his traces." Shinobu Kocho looked a little gloomy and sighed. "Moreover, an entire village of people were killed."
Kanae touched her hair. "Don't be sad. You have avenged them, and you killed Gyokko. No one will suffer the same tragedy again in the future."
"I understand," Shinobu nodded.
Kanae asked about the process of fighting Gyokko. After listening to her sister's account, she was shocked. Gyokko was indeed very difficult to deal with. If it weren't for Mr. Aomura, they would have had to pay a heavy price to defeat him.
Kanae quickly said, "Mr. Aomura, the lord hopes you can go to the headquarters."
"When?"
"As long as you are free, you can go anytime."
Aoki looked out the window. It was dawn, and Ubuyashiki Kagaya should have gotten up.
"Then let's do it now." Fighting Gyokko was almost unnecessary. His spirit and physical strength were basically in perfect condition, and he didn't need to rest.
Kanae hesitated for a moment. "Mr. Aomura, shall I go with you?"
"You should go and rest" Aoki waved his hand. "Dark circles are coming out"
"No, no way" Kanae was startled, and her tone became a little nervous. No matter how powerful she was, she was still a young girl, and a very beautiful one. Of course, she cared about her appearance.
Shinobu interrupted, "Sister, he's lying to you" Swordsmen who practiced breathing techniques, especially the Hashira, had extremely strong physical fitness and strong body metabolism. How could they easily have dark circles?
"Not yet, but it may not be the case if you continue to stay up late," Aoki reminded.
Kanae breathed a sigh of relief and smiled gently. "I really need to rest."
"I'm leaving too." Aoki waved to the two of them, and his figure suddenly disappeared.
Shinobu looked at the place where he had left. "Sister, this time I went out with Mr. Aomura and found that he is more powerful than I thought before, especially the 'space shuttle,' which instantly crosses distant time and space. It is like a miracle."
Kanae smiled gently. "Really? When I have time in the future, I hope to ask Mr. Aomura to let me experience it too."
"Also, sister..." While talking, the two walked into the room.
…
At the Demon Slayer Corps Headquarters, Ubuyashiki Kagaya sat under the eaves, and two children were playing next to him. A figure suddenly appeared.
Ubuyashiki Kagaya turned his head and smiled gently. "Is it Mr. Aomura?"
"The head of the Ubuyashiki family has a very keen sense," Aoki said, sitting down next to him.
"It's just because Mr. Aomura is the only one who can suddenly appear like this," Ubuyashiki Kagaya replied.
Aoki didn't say anything and looked at the boy in front of him. The boy had long black hair and bandages on his body. He looked handsome but expressionless. He was swinging his sword seriously, and every swing was very focused.
As if he noticed his gaze, the boy suddenly turned his head to look at Aoki, and his eyes became very sharp.
"Muichiro"
At this time, Ubuyashiki Kagaya's gentle voice sounded. "This is Mr. Aomura."
The boy was stunned for a while, then turned around and continued to swing his sword seriously.
Ubuyashiki Kagaya explained, "Mr. Aomura, this child is Tokito Muichiro. Not long ago, he suffered a major change and lost all his memories. He is always distracted and indifferent to external things. I hope you don't mind."
Aoki nodded. Tokito Muichiro was a genius who became a Hashira after holding a sword for only two months. He was one of the few people in the Demon Slayer Corps who had achieved the mark, the red sword, and the transparent world.
Under immense pressure, he defeated a demon with the body of a young boy who had never trained. Unfortunately, he died at the hands of Kokushibo.
The two had a special relationship. Kokushibo was once called Tsugikuni Michikatsu and was the elder brother of Tsugikuni Yoriichi, the originator of the Breath of the Sun. Tokito Muichiro was actually a descendant of Tsugikuni Michikatsu.
Aoki's eyes moved slightly. The nine Hashira he was familiar with were gradually returning to their positions. However, most of the Upper Moons had been killed by him, and they should not have a chance to show off in this life.
Of course, for them, this was definitely a good thing. After the final battle, of the nine Hashira of the present generation, only the Wind Hashira Sanemi Shinazugawa, the Water Hashira Giyu Tomioka, and the retired Sound Hashira Tengen Uzui survived. The others, including the Kocho sisters, Kanae and Shinobu, all died in battle. And those who survived were either disabled or lived short lives.
Aoki smiled and thought to himself, "Speaking of which, they should actually thank me."
Ubuyashiki Kagaya faced Aoki, and a hint of expectation surged on his calm face. "Mr. Aomura has returned safely. So, what about Upper Moon Five, Gyokko?"
"He's dead," Aoki said.
Ubuyashiki Kagaya's smile brightened a little. "Good! Good! One less Upper Moon, one step closer to defeating Muzan Kibutsuji"
"Indeed," Aoki nodded. Clearing the minions first, then fighting the boss—this was the most conventional way to fight.
Ubuyashiki Kagaya faced Aoki and said sincerely, "Mr. Aomura, I invited you here this time because I actually have a very presumptuous question to ask you."
