Demon Slayer: The Journey That Began When I Became Yoriichi's Sister

Although they were moving, there were still many villagers cleaning up the damaged houses on the ruins, but it seemed that they couldn't find anything they could do to help.

"Goo~"

Just then, Shinobu's tummy suddenly started to protest.

Yuko turned her head and saw Shinobu Kocho pursing her lips, looking at her with a subtle expression.

Yu Zi looked up at the sky; the sun was already high in the sky. "It's gotten so late without me even realizing it. Shall we go check out the cafeteria?"

“…Hmm.” She had been traveling at full speed since hearing the news last night, and had only had a sip of water since then.

……

"Ah, this dumpling is so delicious!"

As soon as the two arrived at the kitchen door, they could hear joyful sounds coming from inside.

Upon entering the kitchen, a stack of bowls and chopsticks had already been laid out in front of Kanroji Mitsuri, which was taller than her alone.

If it weren't for the angle, this pile of bowls could have completely submerged her.

"Nezuko-chan, you should try some too~" Mitsuri Kanroji held little Nezuko in her arms, picked up a dumpling and stuffed it into Nezuko's mouth, looking very sweet.

Shinobu Kocho stared at the scene in a daze. Come to think of it… isn't Ikuko…?

Yu Zi asked with concern, "What's wrong? Why are you standing there in the doorway?"

Shinobu Kocho shook her head: "No, it's nothing."

Hey~ over here~

Upon seeing the two, Kanroji Mitsuri waved to them eagerly, looking delighted.

It seems difficult to see any negative emotions on this child's face.

Yuko couldn't help but be infected by that smile.

This kid was probably the least suitable person for the Demon Slayer Corps, yet he still became a Pillar.

Yuko learned about Kanroji from Shinobu Kocho. Apparently, Kanroji was rejected by her blind date because of her strange hair color and appetite, which is why she chose to join the Demon Slayer Corps to find someone she liked.

Upon hearing this answer, Yuko almost ripped her head off and scratched it.

What kind of logic is this? Coming to the Demon Slayer Corps for a blind date?

How did this child's head grow?

Also, are those people on blind dates brainless?

How could such a kind and beautiful girl dislike someone's hair color?

In short, this girl who originally joined the Demon Slayer Corps just to go on a blind date inexplicably became a Pillar of the Demon Slayer Corps because of her talent and hard work.

That sounds exaggerated.

Yuko initially thought that although the child was talented, he lacked unwavering faith.

After all, everyone else had a blood feud with Muzan, but Mitsuri was completely unrelated to him.

But this child possesses qualities that others lack.

This is probably what it means to have a pure heart; she is capable of giving everything for others.

Yuko waved to her, indicating that she was ready, and then went with Shinobu to serve the dishes.

"Miss Yuko, Miss Shinobu, you've come to eat too?" Tanjiro and the others, who had just parted ways with the two, appeared in front of them carrying trays.

Inosuke was stuffing a rice ball into his mouth with a wise expression.

Chew, chew, chew...

Yuko nodded and asked Zenitsu, "Is Steelzuka alright?"

Zenitsu was still somewhat shaken and said tremblingly, "I... after I woke him up, he went up the mountain by himself."

"Up the mountain?" Yu Zi paused, thinking of his house that had been hacked to pieces.

That guy... surely he doesn't know yet?

...Oh well, we're moving anyway.

Anyway, it wasn't her who did it.

"The food here is so delicious~" Kanroji Mitsuri said with tears streaming down her face, "I want to stay here forever."

Yu Zi sipped her tea calmly: "Sure, the village chief and the others are moving soon anyway, so no one will say anything if you stay here."

Although she received medicine from Tamayo to improve her eating problems and can now enjoy human food, Ikuko only ate a lot at the very beginning.

After that, they stopped eating much, and they've been doing this for hundreds of years, developing a habit of not eating breakfast, lunch, or dinner.

Occasionally, I'll eat with others so that I don't just stand there watching and make them feel uncomfortable.

Just like Shinobu Kocho never ate in front of her before.

"Sister Yuko is so mean~" Kanroji Mitsuri puffed out her cheeks, looking on with a protesting expression.

Butterfly added with a forced smile, "Well, even if she herself has no objection, I think the Lord would be unwilling."

"..." Mitsuri Kanroji looked somber. Just now, her best friend had betrayed her.

No, no, no, Kanae is definitely the better person.

"This." Shinobu Kocho placed the food from the plate in front of Mitsuri Kanroji.

"Ah! My favorite sakura mochi!" Mitsuri Kanroji's previously sullen expression changed instantly. She turned and hugged Shinobu Kocho, smearing face wash on her face. "Shinobu is the best~"

"Yes, yes, I know I'm the best, but can you please let me eat in peace?"

Shinobu Kocho revealed a deathly smile.

hateful! ! !

I'm only a year older than her, so why does she look so much older?!

So what if you can't afford to eat?!

If Yuko could hear what she was really thinking, she would probably add a sentence.

No... that has little to do with being able to eat a lot, it's a matter of talent.

No matter how much you eat, it won't have any effect other than making you fat.

……

While everyone was having breakfast amidst laughter and chatter, Haganezuka stood alone in front of a pile of ruins, carrying Ikuko's Nichirin Blade.

He seemed to remember that he should have a room here.

Come to think of it, did he take the wrong turn?

……

Infinite city.

The buildings in the city had been rebuilt because of the sun's disappearance. Nakime was lying on the ground in fear, her head bowed low, not daring to look up.

Muzan Kibutsuji is in a very bad mood right now.

He seems to be experiencing the irritability typical of menopause lately.

The veins on his cheeks bulged, his teeth were clenched so tightly they cracked, and his eyes were filled with resentment and regret.

Just a little bit different!

If he had known it would turn out this way, he would never have let the other person hang in the sky.

Originally, he just thought that Yuko's ability to threaten demons was interesting and worth studying.

But he had overcome his weakness in the neck, and nothing except the sun could destroy him.

I was just thinking of pulling Yuko down and studying her to see if I could find a way to overcome the effects of sunlight in her.

Surprisingly, that woman actually overcame the sunlight!

When Muzan thought about how he almost managed to capture the other person, he felt a sense of regret and remorse, like a cooked duck flying away.

hateful! ! !

Muzan's face was extremely grim, almost as grim as when Yoriichi beheaded him hundreds of years ago.

Under the Ghost King's wrathful aura, the entire Infinite City seemed to be wailing.

Half-day dog, who had just escaped death, lay trembling on the ground like Narumi.

Of all the demons, only Kokushibo fared somewhat better, merely kneeling on one knee.

After a long while, Muzan finally came to his senses from that anger.

"Recall all the ghosts."

He simply left behind this one sentence.
