I don't want to be a heroic spirit

After putting down her hands, what caught her eyes was the blood-red hands.

"It feels uncomfortable, doesn't it? That's normal, because you absorbed my blood vampire magic."

"!!!"

The Second Upper Moon stood in front of Butterfly Kanae with a smile. The most important thing was that she didn't even notice when the other party approached.

"Your ability to fight demons is due to something called breathing techniques, right? If that's the case, then if I destroy your lungs, you'll be completely harmless... That's what I think. What do you think? Isn't that a creative idea?"

"Gulu gulu..."

"Ah, you can't speak anymore? I'm so sorry. You must be in unimaginable pain, right?"

The Second Upper Moon pretended to be reluctant and covered his mouth, then laughed again, "Don't worry, it won't hurt soon. You will be saved from this world soon. As long as you become a part of my flesh and blood, you will no longer suffer or be afraid."

The icy mist that can destroy the lungs, and the extreme speed that even the "Pillars" cannot catch up with... this is why the upper-rank demon in front of him has always been fearless.

However, it was too late for Kanae Kocho to realize it.

There was no way to use breathing techniques... every breath was accompanied by severe pain that almost made her faint.

Under the moonlight, the Upper Two unfolded its sharp iron fan, and the cold light flowing on it left no doubt that its sharpness could cut off the head of Butterfly Kanae.

It wouldn't even take a second for this sharp fan to cut off Butterfly Kanae's neck, and a young life would be gone.

If there are no accidents...

"Oh!"

A heart-shaking roar suddenly sounded not far away, causing the Second Upper Moon to subconsciously cast a blank look over there.

And what caught his eye... was a fist covered in a white glove that gradually enlarged.

"boom!"

Nightingale's fist hit Upper Two's face hard, with such great force that his head was severely deformed. Fragments of his skull shot out like bullets, and his entire head turned into a pool of rotten meat.

The overflowing energy turned into a strong wind that blew across the earth. The Upper String Two, which had received Nightingale's punch, flew out at a speed beyond the reach of the naked eye, spraying blood along the way and breaking several large trees.

Looking at the woman in red who suddenly appeared in front of her, Kanae Kocho, who had originally planned to fight to the death, stood there in a daze.

Nightingale shifted her gaze and looked at Butterfly Kanae who was half-kneeling on the ground.

It was not until their eyes met that Kanae Kocho came to her senses and realized that she was saved.

but……

"Is this sister a member of the Demon Slayer Corps? Why don't I have any impression of her? And...how come I didn't know there was such a strong person in the Demon Slayer Corps besides Mr. Gyomei?"

Beating an evil ghost into a cripple with bare hands...Kanae Kocho thought that only Rock Pillar Gyomei Sakura could do it, but she didn't expect that another one would appear today...and she looks like a very young girl.

"No, now is not the time to think about that... I must have her bring news about the Upper Two back to the Demon Slayer Corps... But how should we convey the message..."

Kocho Kanae no longer expected to return alive. Having inhaled the icy mist, even if she managed to escape the demon alive, she probably wouldn't last long enough to receive treatment...

Although I don't want to die, although there are still so many things to do, and although there are still many promises that have not been fulfilled, but...

"If I can bring back clues about the Upper Rank Demons and gain a glimmer of hope for the future of the Demon Slayer Corps...this life wouldn't be wasted, right?"

Butterfly Kanae, who was so negative, looked up and saw Nightingale squatting in front of her and moving her face closer.

"The patient's body temperature is too low, and there is a leaky sound when breathing. It is suspected that the trachea and lungs are damaged... There is a high possibility that surgery will be required."

Then, Nightingale opened the huge travel bag she carried with her and took out a syringe from it.

"You have to go back for surgery. This medicine should be able to slow down your symptoms. Just bear with it for a while."

Butterfly Kanae stared blankly at the huge travel bag next to Nightingale, and a doubt slowly emerged in her mind.

This big bag...has it always been with the other person?
