" Whats real love ? "

Obanai iguro.

Yasu saw him waiting for his parter for the mission he was assigned. ' great...I get her. It should've been kanroji-san ' the snake pillar thought. Though his snake looked... some what happy to see the blossom pillar. Which is strange because kaburamaru doesn't like no one but his owner and the love pillar.

" good evening obanai-San " Yasu spoke with a closed eye smile. Just for the snake pillar to ignore her and walked away, Yasu wasn't bothered so she just walked right behind him not so far away.

" let's hurry and get this over with " said the snake pillar annoyed. " of course obanai- San " said Yasu, excited because she had her first mission with the cold snake pillar. She wanted to get to know him better, she was trying to get to know better every pillar not just him.

Their mission was simply. They just had to go to a town 5 hours away from the demon slayer headquarters. Theirs rumors were a demon has been spotted there and killed all the low-ranked slayers ubuyashiki had sent. So he decided to bring two pillars since he has in mind that the demon in that town might be a lower/upper moon. But part of their mission that bothers the snake pillar is that they have to stay in that town for 5 days, therefore that means he will share a room ( inn ) with the blossom pillar. Which clearly wasn't the love pillar.

The two pillars arrived at the inn they were supposed to stay in. They arrived around 10 pm so they had to sneak out to patrol when everyone is asleep so they won't get caught.

" good evening how can I help you guys ? " the women at the front office asked the two pillars.

" good evening ma'am. May I book a room with two futons ? " Yasu spoke kindly.

" of course, how many nights ? "

" five "

" okay, here's your key. Enjoy your stay ! "

" thank you so much ! " Yasu said as she and Iguro disappeared in the hallways in search for their room. They entered and saw two futons layer in the middle of the room. There was a small closet and a door to the bathroom, there was a small table in between of the two futons.

" well obanai-San, as soon as 11pm strikes, we should start patrolling don't you think ? "

" I don't care "

" okay then ! Let's be ready and do our best obanai-San ! "

The snake pillar just hummed, put his stuff down and sat down in his futon with kaburamaru. Yasu did the same thing but she started sew a ripped part of her haori that ripped apart in her previous mission. As soon 11 pm hit, iguro and Yasu sneaked out from the window of their room and walked around the town, to find anything suspicious or any activity made from a demon. Once they left the valley that was next to the inn they were staying in they saw two ways that they could go to.

" we should separate. I take right, you take left. " the snake pillar said.

" that sounds like a good plan obanai-San. Okay well good luck. Oh, and where are we going to meet ? "

" let's meet here in three hours " he said as he started to walk away.

" okay obanai-San, good luck ! " and with that, Yasu walked to the left away from iguro.

~ Time skip ~ ( again )

It was the second night. Currently, right now it was day time. The two pillars didn't find anything suspicious in their first night. They were walking around the town to know the place more. Though iguro did find something suspicious the first night. He noticed how they lights of all houses were turned off right as it hits 10pm, as if something was going to happen or always happens every night at they exact time. Yasu noticed too but she just thought that they were going to sleep since it was pretty late, and she didn't think much of it. Iguro also found out that about 20 houses in the small town didn't have an owner. And their master had said that the town was full of people. So why would their be abandoned houses ?
