During the conversation, everyone returned to the town at the foot of the mountain.

Tanjiro held Nezuko's hand tightly and walked faster and faster.

When he arrived at the gate of the mansion, Tanjiro smelled many familiar smells.

He patted the gate excitedly.

After a while, it was Tanjiro's mother, Kamado Aoi, who came to open the door.

"Mom!"

Tanjiro's eyes were full of tears and he hugged her.

Although Nezuko's brain was a little uncoordinated just now, she rushed to her mother.

Seeing Tanjiro and Nezuko return unscathed, Kamado Aoi was relieved.

"It's good to come back safely."

"Brother! Sister!"

The family who heard the movement at the door ran out and surrounded them.

Seeing such a scene, Yuko's mouth corners also rose slightly.

Giyu's eyes moved slightly, and he said lightly: "I need to inform the lord about this matter first."

Yuko was slightly stunned, and smiled: "Well, of course."

On the other side, the family finished their warmth, and Tanjiro looked at Kamado Aoi with some trepidation.

"Mom, I'm sorry."

When the family was attacked, he was still sleeping soundly in bed.

Kamado Aoi pursed her lips and stroked his head with a smile.

"Tanjiro, you have done a good job."

"But... Nezuko..."

Kamado Aoi recalled Yuko's words and looked at her subconsciously.

Yuko's eyes dodged, and she didn't dare to look directly at him.

The pride that had just risen in her heart suddenly shattered.

She could save everyone, I really don't know what she is proud of.

If she could be stronger, as strong as Yoriichi, there would not be so many innocent people.

Aoi Kamado didn't care and looked at Nezuko, who was looking at her with wide eyes. Although she didn't have two eyes like before, as a mother, Aoi Kamado saw the problem immediately.

Nezuko has lost her previous spirituality.

Aoi Kamado smiled and touched her head, "Isn't this the same as before?"

Tanjiro's lips moved slightly.

No... Mom... Nezuko...

She has become a ghost.

Aoi Kamado squatted down and kneaded Nezuko's face.

"Wow, look, she's as cute as before."

"..."

Tanjiro opened his mouth and was about to speak.

"It's okay, Tanjiro." Aoi Kamado smiled and looked over, "You will protect your sister, right?"

This is Nezuko's own will.

Tanjiro was stunned, did Mom... know?

Under the gaze of Aoi Kamado, Tanjiro patted his chest and promised: "Yes! I will definitely protect Nezuko!"

Aoi Kamado smiled and looked at Yuko: "Ms. Yuko, thank you so much."

Yuko opened her mouth: "No..."

Tanjiro suddenly knelt down without warning and hit his head on the ground.

"I'm so sorry! I didn't understand the situation and I took the initiative to use force on Sister Yuko!"

Yuko's hands trembled a little. It's not that she hasn't seen such a scene before, but it's the first time that it's so exaggerated, especially in front of so many people.

"Hurry, get up."

After much persuasion, Tanjiro was finally helped up. Yuko wiped the sweat from her forehead and her back was a little hairy.

It was so embarrassing.

Aoi Kamado asked in confusion: "What happened?"

Yuko endured the embarrassment and explained to him. This matter was over after all.

Tanjiro discussed with his family and planned to go to Sagiri Mountain to learn from a master and find a way to make Nezuko recover.

On the other side, Yuko and Giyuu, who were leaning against the door, also communicated.

Giyuu: "Are you living here?"

"Yes."

"Then I'll let you know when I get the news."

Yuko asked: "Where are you going next?"

"There is information that a man-eating ghost appeared in the northern snow mountain."

Yuko suggested: "Then I'll go with you, it's more convenient."

The main reason is that she doesn't plan to go with Tanjiro. It's a waste of time for her to wait here. It's better to go with Giyuu.

She can also get the news from Ubuyashiki as soon as she gets it.

Giyuu thought for a moment and felt that this man was not a bad person, so he nodded.

After discussing things here, Tanjiro has almost finished talking.

Yuko went and found Aoi Kamado: "Sister Aoi, don't go back to your house for the time being. After all, the mountain is too remote and not safe."

"Just live here for the time being. If you need money at home, just put it in the cabinet in the main house."

Aoi Kamado quickly refused: "How can this be possible."

"It's okay. After Tanjiro joins the Demon Slayer Corps, he won't be short of money. Just think of it as me lending it to you temporarily."

Aoi Kamado was still a little hesitant, but Tanjiro, who already knew the existence of evil spirits, quickly persuaded her.

MountainIt's just their family, it's too dangerous.

It's really lucky that they didn't encounter any trouble before.

After calming down Aoi Kamado, Ikuko looked at Tanjiro and said, "There is a backpack in the kitchen, which can help you temporarily place Nezuko."

"Evil spirits can slightly change their body shape."

Tanjiro was stunned for a moment, and said with emotion, "I know!"

"I will definitely not disappoint Miss Ikuko's expectations."

Now it was Ikuko's turn to be confused.

Expectations?

She did have great expectations for Tanjiro, but she didn't seem to say it, right?

Aoi Kamado behind Tanjiro gave her a thumbs up.

Ikuko: "..."

What did you say to him?

Looking at Tanjiro's serious expression, Ikuko said silently, "...Just do your best."

"Yes!"

...

Nezuko seemed to know that she was about to go away, and ran over to grab her sleeve.

Yuko touched her head: "We'll see each other again."

She will definitely come back before Tanjiro graduates.

After saying goodbye to everyone, Yuko walked towards the door: "Let's go."

Giyuu, who was standing at the door, nodded slightly at Tanjiro and left.

...

This guy is really not good at speaking.

On the way, Yuko looked at him slightly.

Along the way, the communication between the two was quite difficult. If Yuko didn't take the initiative to speak, this guy would never say a word.

He is the type she is not good at dealing with.

"We're here." Giyuu suddenly said.

Yuko looked sideways and saw a small town in the mountains ahead.

Kitanojuku Station.

Entering the town, Giyuu took the initiative to speak: "Information shows that several hunters have been eaten by ghosts."

"Then we'd better find the hunters in the town to find out..." Yuko murmured while looking at the street ahead.

A girl with a gun on her back and a white scarf on her head was arguing with a group of hunters with guns on their backs.

Speak of the devil and he will appear.

Giyuu walked quickly.

Just as the girl left in anger, he stepped forward and grabbed the gun behind her.

"Don't touch other people's guns!" Before the girl turned around, her elbow hit her from behind.

Giyuu pressed the girl's shoulder expressionlessly.

The girl was stunned for a moment and shook her hand to break free.

"You are Yae, right? I am Tomioka Giyuu from the Demon Slayer Corps. Please tell me the details of the attack by the demon."

The hunter next to him looked puzzled: "Ghost? Wasn't it a bear that attacked people? What was that guy talking about?"

Someone asked cautiously: "Excuse me, are you a police officer?"

"No, it's the Demon Slayer Corps."

"The Demon Slayer Corps? Is it a government organization?"

"No, it's an unofficial organization."

Yuko: "..."

Is this guy always so brave?

"Then what's on your waist?"

Giyuu drew out the Nichirin Sword.

Everyone was terrified.

"I'm Tomioka Giyu from the Demon Slayer Corps."

It's impossible to talk to this guy, maybe it's better to call a police officer.

Everyone was thinking, and suddenly a hunter screamed.

"Ah! I remember."

"A charcoal burning family in the opposite mountain was attacked, and someone nearby saw someone wearing a haori that was split in half."

"Ah! No wonder he looked suspicious."

"Someone get a rope."

Is this guy an idiot?

Seeing everyone in a mess, Yuko covered her face and stepped forward.

Just as she was about to touch Giyu, a brisk footstep suddenly approached from behind, and the corner of her clothes was grabbed by something.
