Chapter 28 : Kanae's priority

The warm sunlight brushed over the gentle face, the eyelashes fluttered and the eyes opened slowly.

Then she felt a pain in the back of her head.

Kanae who just woke up was a little confused and she unconsciously touched the back of her head that was sore.

Immediately, she remembered last night's events.

"Shinobu!!..."

She screamed a little desperately and quickly jumped up, standing gracefully on the ground.

Her pair of pink and purple eyes swept around but she couldn't see her younger sister anywhere.

"Bastard..."

Kanae gritted her teeth, worried about her sister's situation.

At the same time she also has some doubts

Why didn't that demon eat her while she was unconscious?

"Did something prevent the demon from attacking me?"

Kanae murmured softly, a little confused.

However she quickly cleared her head and focused solely on her priorities, Shinobu must be found immediately...

She can't let the demon eat her sister.

She has already lost her parents, she can't lose her sister anymore, she just can't...

She then picked up the Nichirin Blades that belonged to Shinobu from the ground.

The pink-purple eyes showed a touch of surprise

Beneath the Nichirin Blades, there was a piece of paper.

Picking up the piece of paper with some doubts:

'Well to sum it up, your sister Shinobu will be with me for a few days, don't worry, I won't touch a hair of your sister, well I hope so.'

Well she was more confused by the note? Kanae narrowed her pretty pink-purple eyes.

Although the demon said so, how could she believe a demon's words about her sister's safety.

She must find her sister as soon as possible and take her back from that demon.

Letting her sister stay by that demon's side even for a moment, she can't feel at ease at all

Suddenly she heard flapping noise overhead.

She raised her head unconsciously and her kasugai crow flew over and landed on her shoulder.

The girl's delicate face changed to seriousness.

Kasugai Crows are crows that are used by the Demon Slayer Corps, primarily for communication. Each of them is assigned to a Demon Slayer Corps member. They deliver missions to their designated members.

It's just that there are basically very few tasks for members of hashira level like them.

When there are tasks, they are generally very tricky.

This also means that the "master" has a task to convey to them .

'Summon for all the hashira to assemble'

Kanae's pink and purple eyes froze instantly.

Something serious must have happened for all the hashira's to gather together

"What happened?"

Kocho Kanae couldn't help but squint her eyes. Now, she just wants to find her sister as soon as possible and doesn't want to do anything else...

"Kibutsuji Muzan..."

"Was sighted!"

The crow answered hoarsely.

Kanae couldn't help but clench the hilt of her sword.

Kibutsuji Muzan.

As a member of the demon slayer corps, it's impossible not to know this name.

This name represents the ultimate goal of the demon slayer corps.

In other words, killing Kibutsuji Muzan is the main purpose of the demon slayer corps.

An original demon that has survived for more than a thousand years.

Absolute ruler of demons

Self-proclaimed 'creature infinitely close to perfection'

The ancestor of demons, the strongest demon

At the same time, he is also the only one who can easily create a large number of demons.

Demons in this world cannot spread like zombies. Ordinary demons can hardly infect others.

Only Kibutsuji Muzan and the twelve kizuki's have the ability to expand the race.

It can be said that as long as Kibutsuji Muzan is willing, he can produce a large number of demons in a very short time.

Almost all the members who joined the demon slayer corps were indirectly persecuted by the demons created by Kibutsuji Muzan.

There is not a member of the demon killing team who does not hate this demon.

And Kanae's reason for joining the Demon Slayer corps is to end this chain of grief.

And to do all this, she needs to kill Kibutsuji Muzan.

Kanae hesitated a little

When she and her younger sister agreed to slay demons together, they made a conscious sacrifice to protect the happiness of others. Now that the demon that can truly end all these sources appears, she should leave immediately.

But

She shook her head immediately

Although she really wants to rush over now, looking at the Nichirin Blades in her hand belonging to Shinobu, she couldn't bring herself to leave

"I can sacrifice anything for the mission but I absolutely can't lose Shinobu. She's the only one I have left"

At that moment, she made a decision in her heart.

Kanae turned her head and looked at the crow on her shoulder: "Tell Oyakata sama, Kocho Kanae has something important to do and can't go there for the time being. Once the matter here is resolved, I will leave immediately."

Following the crow's flapping wings, the girl's figure also disappeared.

She must find her sister as soon as possible.
