Today is a strange day

Shinobu-sama suddenly called her to her office, and this made Aoi find it hard to understand. Normally if something were to happen, Shinobu would go look for her directly or send a message to the three girls, what a big deal she must do today. Pushing the ironwood door, Aoi saw that her older sister was already sitting there, her expression so serious that her heart also followed that and become scared.

- Aoi, Oyakata-sama asks you to go on a mission tonight

Shinobu's words like lightning struck the ears and Aoi was at a loss for a moment. Her mind was chaotic, her thinking was delayed for a moment. Through the inconclusive narratives of Shinobu that she heard, Aoi was able to fully understand everything.

After many months of lying in the area and investigating, the Demon Slayer finally determined the identity that Kibutsuji Muzan is currently using. A successful businessman, married to a rich woman from a wealthy family, she also had a stepchild of about 7 years old. With the sharp nose of Tanjirou and a number of other relationships, they have found the place where Muzan will appear most recently, is a party between politicians, famous businessmen in the current market. tonight. The lord of the palace asked for a good-looking female demon killer, if possible, to do some kitchen work, because they would let that person pretend to serve at the other party.

And Aoi fully meets the above requirements

- Aoi, don't worry. Even though you are a member of the Demon Slayer, you are still my sister, they won't dare to do anything to you.

- Do not pay attention to what others say, listen to your heart. Kanzaki Aoi, will you be brave enough to take on this mission?

The first time Shinobu called her by both his first and last name made Aoi panic a little. She looked at the girl who was serious in front of her, interspersed with some tension.

She is worried for her

That was what Aoi understood through Shinobu's face

It would be a lie to say that Aoi was not afraid, but she wanted to move on, she wanted to overcome this nightmare, moreover, she wanted to do something to repay her older sister, who was help her out of situation become an orphan.

Being weak here is enough

- I agree

Right that afternoon, the people of Oyakata's estate quickly brought to Butterfly Estate an outfit for disguise. Shinobu helped her put on that frilly outfit, lovingly combing each line up her long hair, softly speaking.

- It's okay, nothing to be afraid of, Inosuke will also accompany you

Will he go too?

Inside Aoi unconsciously grouping up a bit of joy even she couldn't understand at all

- This is...

Aoi looked at the short blade placed in a shell of the same color as the outfit she was wearing, which Shinobu gave her

- Just a precaution. This knife is made of the same material as the Japanese sword, I have poisoned it already, enough to kill a demon.

Aoi trembled as she accepted the knife, attaching it to the headband on her lap. This knife is definitely made from before, so does Shinobu-sama know that this will happen?

Leaving all the nonsense thoughts from her mind, Aoi walked to the gate of Butterfly Estate, where many people were waiting. She saw a familiar figure, holding a twin sword leaning against the wooden gate of Butterfly Estate. In order to facilitate the break-in, Inosuke also changed into a Western suit, which made him reduce some of the awkwardness, a few more gentleness of the gentleman, his long hair tied up with a colored ribbon. black.

It's true that he's beautiful just because of clothes, wait-, it looks like this guy's normally good enough already, right?

Aoi nervously watched the countenance of each demonic killer, doing so long a nursing job, the number of people she knew didn't count as small, but this was her first time on a mission with them, of course she couldn't avoid it. from a bit timid.

These are the people who have bravely fought the war for the sake of their homeland, those who gave up their youth for the great demon extermination career, even if they did not receive riches, luxury, luxury or honor, they still steadfastly steadfastly standing by his choice.

Aoi wondered if she could be like them.

Would she be brave enough to overcome this nightmare?

Shinobu slowly walked out from the main house, dressed in a demon-killing uniform, hips wearing his special sword. This is the Kochou Shinobu Insect Pillar, also her adopted sister.

There was nothing left to hesitate

Can't let people down, have to stand firm

Father and mother in heaven, please bless me
