The smell of blood in the room had not yet dissipated, and Jiu Yue couldn't help but immediately recall that Shicai Douzi was sitting not far from his sleeping self, eating human flesh with relish......

If it is said that Douzi's lively appearance is as lively as a human child, which once made Jiu Yue in a trance, unable to associate him with the terrible word 'monster' in her mind, then nothing can make Jiu Yue realize it more clearly than this moment...... The most essential difference between a human and a demon. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

"Sister, that person really isn't me-" Douzi stumbled as he spoke, trying to explain to Jiuyue, but he didn't know where to start.

Jiuyue frowned impatiently: "Stop-you don't move and just bite a sister's, how do I know that you are so close to me and refuse to leave, what are your thoughts?"

"Sister, you misunderstood-the piece of meat I just ate was really not torn from the dead shopkeeper......" Douzi was a little anxious, and the boredom and indifference in Jiuyue's words made him very sad: "The reason why I didn't explain the origin of the meat to my sister is because I am afraid that my sister will be afraid of hearing it...... Will hate me for that...... Actually, I made that piece of meat from—"

"I repeat, we are different species, don't call me sister anymore. Jiuyue said in a deep voice: "Also, deception is deception, no matter what the reason." ”

After finishing speaking, Jiuyue no longer listened to Douzi's defense, but walked straight to the bed, and stuffed the cloth bag wrapped in the jade box and bone whistle into his sleeve.

"Sister-" Seeing Jiuyue walking away from him without any room, Douzi only called half of her sister, so she stuck it in her mouth.

After Jiuyue put away the cloth bag, he turned around and walked to Douzi again, and said earnestly to Douzi: "...... Alright, don't explain, for the sake of you who helped me when I was in trouble, and blocked an arrow for me, I will definitely take you away with you...... However, after leaving this station, we will go our separate ways...... Even if you really want to go to the hidden capital, you will be bothered to think that you have never known me. ”

"Why? Just because I'm a demon and you're human?" Douzi unexpectedly no longer explained to Jiuyue, but asked Jiuyue in confusion: "Even if I really did something to those irrelevant people, with sister, you-" As if remembering that Jiuyue didn't want him to call her sister, Douzi hesitated a little before continuing: "...... What does it have to do with you? You are different to me!"

In the face of Douzi's questioning, Jiuyue did not answer Douzi immediately, as if she was also thinking seriously about this question herself.

She is a being that the world fears so much that the world can't wait to erase her from this world...... It should be said that it is the majority of the people...... Most people who are not on the crooked path of the demons can't wait to erase her from this world......

Her existence is hoped for by evil, but not tolerated by good.

To the world, she is a calamity that cannot be avoided, and to her, the world is ...... It's a gray shadow with a cold face.

Since everyone else wants her to die, why should she care about the life or death of others?

yes, why do you care?

Jiu Yue pondered seriously for a long time, and finally said slowly and sincerely to Douzi: "As long as I am still a person, I can't be indifferent to such a thing as monster cannibalism...... I don't want to kill you, but I can't see you as a friend...... Do you understand?"

Jiuyue's indifference and detachment made Douzi sad and melancholy, he looked at Jiuyue in a daze, opened his mouth, wanted to say something, but never said it again.

"After a while, when you go out with me, be calmer, don't go and have more disputes with those people in Fangcai......" Jiuyue told very seriously, and uneasily picked out his guess: "If I guessed correctly, those people ...... It should be the mouth of the dead shopkeeper, the so-called demon master. ”

"I know. Beanzi replied sullenly, with a palpable sense of loss in his words.

However, Douzi's mood Jiuyue didn't care much, Jiuyue was more concerned about the troubles they might encounter next.

Moreover, Douzi's answer was actually completely unexpected by Jiuyue, which surprised Jiuyue: "...... You know?"

For Jiuyue's surprise, Douzi was a little unimpressed, and said lightly: "The dazzling clothes on their bodies...... Clear-eyed people know at a glance that they are demon masters!" When he said this, Douzi's gaze happened to fall on Jiuyue's eyes bound to Bai Aya, and he couldn't help but pause, and asked with some curiosity: "But speaking of which, sister, you-"

Douzi seemed to be a solid-eyed monster, and listened to Jiuyue's words very carefully, so when Douzi realized that he still couldn't change his words, and he still habitually called Jiuyue sister, Douzi had to pause again, trying to make his tone sound less lost: "...... Where did you know who they were?"

"Well, well, I'm guessing...... At first, I felt a little strange when I smelled a heavy aroma from the person who had just bumped into me...... The smell is very special, very similar to the smell of incense and candles that are lit when worshipping the gods and sacrificing to heaven and earth. Jiuyue recalled carefully.

Although she couldn't see the strange clothes on the people, she could clearly hear the objects hanging from them, and the subtle sounds they made when they swayed as they walked.

"Moreover, they are a few big men, and they carry a bell with them everywhere, I can't think it's their decoration, right...... and then think of the shopkeeper who said that there is a demon master around here...... I can only think that the bell must be some kind of magic weapon or something, and what kind of people are they from the 'Kagura Gate'...... Naturally, their most likely identity is the Demon Master. ”

Jiuyue said as she nodded her head gently, very satisfied with the clarity of her thoughts.

"But you, since you know what they do for a long time, you dare to talk to them like that?

"That's not because—"

Because they're bullying you—

Douzi thought about it, but changed his words: "I'm not afraid of any demon master! If they dare to come to me for trouble, I'll let them know how powerful I am!"

"Yes, count me as salty and eat turnips. Jiuyue said worriedly: "I'm really anxious to die, I'm afraid that they will find out that something is wrong with you——"

Jiu Yue hadn't finished speaking, but at this time, there was a heavy knock on the door.
