Reincarnation as Lower Rank Five in Demon Slayer

Inside the dilapidated house in the forest, Urokodaki Sakonji carefully searched for useful clues, looking all over the place, upstairs and downstairs.

Urokodaki Sakonji came to the conclusion that this place was not a normal place for people to live, but rather a place that seemed to imprison people.

The everyday items upstairs and the bloodstains downstairs indicate that the homeowner had just left.

The undried bloodstains on the open ground outside the house, and the house itself where people were imprisoned, all testify to the cruelty and viciousness of the house's owner.

"What exactly happened here not long ago? Why did the owner of the house suddenly leave? And is it related to the white figure that flashed across the sky?"

As Urokodaki Sakonji looked at the deserted house before him, he began to ask questions in his mind, trying to find the connection between them.

Suddenly, the many crushed leaves on the ground caught Urokodaki Sakonji's attention.

"This is!"

The narrow path of fallen leaves, barely a meter wide, was so inconspicuous among the dead leaves scattered on the ground.

Upon discovering Urokodaki Sakonji on the leaf-strewn path, he immediately went forward to investigate.

He reached out and picked up some fallen leaves from the ground, examining them closely.

"They just left in this direction, right? We should still be able to catch up."

Urokodaki Sakonji found the trail of Li Lei and his group's departure and immediately set off to chase after them.

……

Under the moonlight of the dark night, in the dense forest, Li Lei led the group toward the nearest town.

"I'm tired. Are you leading us in the right direction? It feels like we're going deeper and deeper into the abyss!"

Ten'i Moka, who was standing to the side, used the Nichirin Blade she had obtained from Li Lei to cut down the tree branches blocking her way and asked Li Lei a question.

"Don't worry, Sister Mengxiang, we're on the right path, and the lush trees are just a result of the soil's good nutrition!"

Li Lei replied with a smile.

"How did you know there was a town in this direction?"

Out of boredom, Ten'i Moka pressed for an answer.

"I saw it on the way here," Li Lei replied casually.

Amane Moeka: "Really?"

"Of course! Didn't you see it when I flew you here, Moka-nee?"

Upon hearing Lei's greeting, Ten'i Moka instantly recalled being hugged by Lei in the air earlier. She was so focused on seeing how Lei had grown up that she hadn't paid much attention to the ground.

Thinking of this, Ten'i Moka's face immediately turned red. She said in a hesitant tone.

"Look...I saw it."

"Wow! Sir, you just said you can fly, that's amazing!" Chihiro interjected.

"Chihiro! The master was joking. People can't fly," Chigusa said to her sister.

"No, adults can fly, they can fly."

Faced with her brother's lecture, Chihiro shook her head and said, refusing to listen.

"Humans can't fly, right?"

"Humans can't fly."

"Whether people can fly or not shouldn't be important now."

The children in the group started talking, and the peaceful migration through the woods became lively. The lively group made the barriers between them smaller.

"Gah~gah~gah~"

Suddenly, the cawing of crows filled the sky, and more than a dozen dark figures flew towards the group. All the crows carried large amounts of money and valuables in their claws.

The largest and lead crow flew straight toward Li Lei.

"Be careful, adults"

Chigusa and Chihiro shouted in unison and stood in front of Li Lei with their bodies.

"Don't be afraid, we're on the same side."

Li Lei patted the two of them on the shoulders and said.

The little bird that was flying towards Li Lei had to stop a few meters away from him because of the brother and sister's obstruction.

“Master, I’ve finished what you asked me to do, and all the money is here.”

Xiao Wu said to Li Lei.

The accompanying crow henchmen immediately piled the money and valuables they had on their hands next to Little Crow.

Scattered coins and valuables piled up beside Xiao Wu, forming a small, multi-faceted mound.
