Chapter 16: A Doll-Like Girl
The Imperial Capital is the economic, political, and cultural center of Japan, and now there is a large-scale cannibalism that has had a devastating impact.
After losing many low-level swordsmen, the Ghost Slayer immediately decided to send two "pillar" level swordsmen and a special first-class swordsman to solve the incident.
Butterfly House, Courtyard.
Looking at the purgatory Kyojuro and Butterfly Shinobu who were ready to go, Chijuro wanted to speak and stopped.
Half a month of living in the butterfly house made him feel that his bones were about to rust, and if he could, he would also want to go to the imperial capital area to hunt evil ghosts!
Pity.
With a sigh in his heart, Qianjurou made a reluctant expression on his face: "Brother, sister Shinobi, how long will it take for you to come back from this mission?" ”
"If it goes well, I'll be back in three or five days~"
Butterfly Shinobu smiled, and Purgatory Kyojuro on the side also nodded in agreement.
"That's ......" Chijuro paused and turned his gaze in the direction of Xingjuro: "Brother, I want to go back to the Purgatory Mansion by myself, is it okay?" ”
Hearing this, Purgatory Xingjuro stepped forward and pressed his right hand on Qianjuro's shoulder: "Qianjuro, don't worry, my brother will take you back after this mission!" Please bear with me a little longer! ”
"Ahh
Chijuro hurriedly explained: "Of course not, Sister Shinobi, I'm just a little homesick." ”
"Teasing you~" Butterfly Shinobu smiled and glanced at Chijuro: "In order not to make you too lonely, I specially called my stepson back, it is estimated that it will arrive tomorrow, that is a big beauty~"
"Uh...... Thank you Sister Shinobu ......"
Boy!
Chijurou was helpless.
He also wanted to secretly exercise while the butterfly was away, but he didn't expect her to call her stepson back.
It's really a foot high, and the magic is a foot high.
"Two, it's time for us to set off in style."
Suddenly, a voice emerged from the courtyard.
Senjurou turned his head in the direction in which the voice appeared, and a tall, muscular man in delicate and ostentatious clothes appeared on the tree.
"Alright, Lord Otojo, let's go!" Seeing the man who appeared, Purgatory Kyojuro bowed slightly to show respect, and then the three of them left the butterfly house.
In the courtyard, Senjuro stood under the tree, watching the three of them leave, silent.
Around the afternoon, a young girl rushed to the butterfly house.
She has pink-purple moon eyes, diamond-shaped highlights, and cherry pink lipstick on her mouth. Qi bangs, a unilateral side ponytail, and an emerald green butterfly hairpin with pink edges.
In the main living room, Senjuro pours a cup of hot tea for the girl.
"Hello, I'm Purgatory Senjuro, and I'm temporarily living in the Butterfly House."
"I'm Chestnut Blossom Chanel." As the girl said this, she raised her head, staring at Senjuro opposite with bright eyes, without saying a word.
"......" Facing the girl's gaze, Qianjuro touched his nose with a little embarrassment: "In the days to come, please take care of me." ”
"I will." Chanel said.
This is how the first conversation between the two ended.
……
Two days later, late at night.
In the quiet courtyard, Senjuro sat under a tree and looked up at the starry night sky.
Chanel, on the other hand, sat on the eaves of the roof, with her hands on her knees.
"Alas......"
sighed slightly, looking at the girl who had been following him, Senjuro was helpless.
God knows what Butterfly Shinobu explained to her, except for going to the toilet, the girl in front of him followed him almost all the time.
This made it impossible for him to work out secretly.
"Chanel, you don't have to follow me all the time." Senjuro suggested.
"No, I have to follow you all the time." The girl's eyes were a little hollow, like a delicate doll: "Until my sister returns, this is my duty." ”
"Alas!" Sighing again, Senjuro said no more.
This is not the first time he has said this, but the girl lacks unexpected stubbornness.
No matter how much he tried to persuade him, the maiden just said, "This is my duty." ”
There's nothing he can do.
Forget it, it's a few days off.
Chijurou comforted himself like this, but his heart was involuntarily dripping blood.
Ahhh
Come back, I want to go home! I want to exercise!
……
The Imperial Capital incident, which lasted for a week, was unexpectedly resolved smoothly under the suppression of two "pillars" and a special Grade A swordsman.
In this mission, Purgatory Kyojuro almost single-handedly killed the twelve ghost moons active in the imperial capital.
This made him rightfully inherit the position of "Yanzhu"!
These news were obtained by Senjuro after inquiry.
During this time of Butterfly House's cultivation, through conversations with members of the "hidden" organization and reading books, Senjuro learned a lot of common sense things about evil spirits.
Among them, there are the "twelve ghost moons" and the meaning of "pillars".
The so-called "Twelve Ghost Moons" are powerful beings below one of the evil ghosts and above all the ghosts.
A ghost refers to the "ghost king" Onimai Tsuji no miserable.
It is the original ghost and the source of the ghost, and all evil spirits arise from it.
"Twelve Ghost Moons" is the name of the strongest twelve ghosts under the Ghost King.
The power of the "Twelve Ghost Moons" is unimaginable to ordinary people.
Ordinary members of the Ghost Slayer have no chance of winning in front of them.
In the huge ghost killing team, only the "pillar" standing at the top has the strength to kill them.
By comparing and purgatory's strength, Chijuro couldn't help but feel afraid that he was lucky enough to kill the wolf.
The fire tornado that bloomed in the sky that day, "Breath of Fire, Type Nine, Purgatory", was a height that was difficult for him to reach now.
And the wolf who can be injured by this blow without dying, his strength is far from being comparable to him.
If it weren't for the fact that the wolf had been severely injured before he met Senjuro, and the wisteria flower's fatal weakening of the evil spirit, I am afraid that his grave grass would be several feet tall by now.
This makes Chijuro's desire for strength more and more urgent.
To his delight, after the Imperial Capital Incident ended, Kyojuro did not stop at the Ghost Slayer Headquarters for more, but took him back to the Purgatory Mansion.
This allows Senjurou to finally get rid of Butterfly House's surveillance.
However, the curiosity lingering in Butterfly Ninja's eyes before leaving made him feel a little shadowy in his heart.
This beautiful woman, the attention to him, seems to be a little overdone.
Thinking about it, she always suspected that the death of the wolf in the "Twelve Ghost Moons" had something to do with herself.
This made Senjuro's heart tense.
However, he was not very worried.
Now that she has returned to the Purgatory Mansion, as long as she does not expose her true strength, but shows the phenomenon of increasing her strength little by little, she is not afraid of what she does.
