Chương 7: the life of a kasugai crow
As the man named Sakonji continued walking down the road, he saw the ashes in the cage in his hand begin to spread with the light wind and immediately wrapped the cage again with the black cloth.
"That's quite impressive. You lasted almost ten minutes in the sun without turning to ashes. You have quite a durable body, even if it is not considered strong. I think earth breath will suit you better than water breath."
"You are so cruel, sakonji-sensei."
When the old swordsman heard the voice of unknown source calling him master, he nodded his head in satisfaction and continued walking.
------- 6 hours later (after dark)
A man with very striking violet eyes was sitting cross-legged with his head bowed when suddenly he looked up with widened eyes at the reflection of the woodland across from his house meeting the night.
By coincidence, a violet-eyed woman who was about to serve dinner saw this scene and worriedly asked her husband what was wrong.
"This can't be happening, is it? Did he really betray my judgment in such a short time? Was he lying to me all this time?"
"Who is this?"
Although the beautiful woman already had an idea in her mind, her heart was trying hard to reject the idea in her brain.
"Yuto... He just killed the crow I sent to watch him."
Amane was about to give her husband some reassurance that he might have misunderstood when she realized that the hand she had reached out to pat his shoulder was trembling. As much as she didn't want to believe it, she didn't think he was lying to her.
This meant that the leader of the ubuyashiki family, who had dedicated his life to killing demons, had released a second demon king with his own hands. And unlike the other demon king, this one was a true immortal, and not only was he no different in appearance from an ordinary human, but he was also highly intelligent.
A demon that speaks like a human, eats like a human, sings like a human, writes poetry like a human, can never be found again if he is careful. What's more, swordsmen can't even sense this demon's presence like other demons. Probably even if this demon were to disguise itself and sneak among the swordsmen, none of them would notice it.
"Please don't worry so much. You are the one who can feel everyone's thoughts and I am sure your judgment is not wrong. Maybe it was a lightning strike that killed the crow."
(W.N. While writing this chapter, I went online with a momentary doubt and did some research and found out a fact that shocked me. After watching the anime, I always thought that the kasugai crows were some kind of summoned creatures that the leader of the kagaya clan controlled with an ability. But after some research, I found out that these crows actually existed and were part of the demon hunters of their own volition... And to tell you the truth, that's ridiculous! And to tell you the truth, that's ridiculous! So in this fan fiction, I'm going to write it my way, which is that the leader of the ubayakishi family turned ordinary crows into special crows, which gave them the ability to see at a distance or communicate at a distance. Of course, the demon hunters won't know this, so they'll think that when they don't have their crows with them, their crows are at the center and will come to them when there's news. To be more precise, the ubuyashiki family is hiding their crows' abilities from everyone to use them as a trump card... Hmm that makes more sense)
---- 10 minutes later
The swordsmen, a group of 10 people, men and women, knelt in front of a man with a scar on his upper face. When the man saw everyone gathered, he opened his mouth and told them why they had gathered here.
"The mission I am about to give you today is one that will perhaps decide the fate of the entire world in the future. A failure is definitely unacceptable!"
"Yes, sir!"
The demon slayers, who were on one knee with one fist on the ground, waiting for the rest of the order, suddenly saw that the kagaya had stopped talking and was standing silently in place. They had all come here knowing that there was something urgent to be done, and now they wondered why he was standing there without saying anything.
Suddenly Kagaya vomited out some blood and fell to the ground. The demon slayers who saw him were frightened and tried to step forward and stop him from falling, but kagaya quickly made his way back and sat down cross-legged. He then raised his head and told the anxious demon slayers gathered in front of him to return to their previous duties.
The demon slayers were very confused by this, but none of them objected and turned around and walked away. Probably after they were far enough away they would gather again and start gossiping.
When they were out of sight, Amane came out of the room in the house and rushed to her husband.
"What happened? Are you okay?"
"He... He ate... My crow..."
------- a few seconds ago
One of the crows Kagaya was controlling quickly came back to check on the situation where the previous crow had died and was met with a scene. A man cooking and eating a crow under the dark sky.
------ 12 minutes ago
The crow assigned to secretly follow Yuto. He pretended to be an ordinary crow so as not to be exposed while following him. But this decision cost him too much.
Yuto wanted to cook something for his master after dark, and his master agreed. This way he could learn what kind of cooking skills his new student had. Maybe he would even assign him to cook for him in the future.
After searching around for a while, Yuto couldn't find anything like pigs or cattle, so he decided to broaden his target range even more. As a result, the kasugai crow, which simulates ordinary crows, entered his target area during this search and was shot with a small blood arrow from Yuto's finger...
Rip nameless kasugai crow.....
