at the same time.

the other side.

In a courtyard somewhere.

Pong!

The two figures collided violently!

Brilliant sparks bloom and rub in the middle!

Uh-huh!

The two quickly separated and jumped to other places.

The white-haired man with a strong build and handsome face was holding two curved scimitars and stood up slowly.

He looked at the other person with red-colored hair in front of him, his expression looked very happy, he raised his head slightly, pointed at him loudly and shouted:

"Gorgeous! Purgatory! Your swordsmanship has reached a level that makes me, the gorgeous one, take it seriously!"

"It can be described as gorgeous!"

As he spoke, the sparkling gemstones and pendants on the handsome man's forehead swayed slightly with his excited movements:

"Anjuro!"

Opposite the man.

Purgatory Anjuro, wearing a flame-trimmed haori, red-flame hair, and a calm smile, also straightened up while holding his own smoking Nichirin sword.

"Huh..." He breathed a long sigh of relief.

Afterwards, Purgatory Anjuro smiled at the man whose head was decorated with many gems and gold ornaments and said:

"Your swordsmanship is also very beautiful, Yu Xu!"

Just when Yu Sui Tianyuan smiled proudly and said words like "gorgeous".

Click.

Purgatory Anjuro put away the Nichirin Sword, put his hands on his hips, laughed and added:

"It's just that there are too many wives!"

"ah?"

"...This has nothing to do with the competition." Yusui Tianyuan immediately raised his eyes, speechless and choked.

"Hahahahaha!"

Just as the two were talking in their own ways,

Creak...

The courtyard door was slowly pushed open.

A rather cold voice came from behind the door:

"Purgatory, Yu Xu, the Lord calls you."

Yusui Tianyuan heard the sound, looked towards the door, and answered casually:

"Lord, I understand..."

But when he saw the person at the door, he was stunned for a moment: "This...?"

Purgatory Xingshoulang saw Yusui Tianyuan looking at the door in a daze, and immediately turned his head, wondering:

"What's wrong?"

then.

He also looked towards the door.

——

Snap, snap.

The stepson of another pillar, wet all over, wearing a monochromatic haori, with long black hair, and calm and serious eyes, was standing at the door.

The new water column - Tomioka Giyu.

The man's expression remained unchanged. When he saw the strange looks in Purgatory and Yusui's eyes, he just blinked:

"Yes." Tomioka Yoshiyuki nodded to the two of them.

Wet water droplets kept dripping down the hem of Haori's clothes.

Yusui Tianyuan pointed at him, frowning slightly, the gem on his forehead reflected the sun's rays, and he shouted:

"What are you doing?!"

"Tomioka, why are you so ungrateful?"

"The water is dripping into my yard!"

Tomioka Giyu stood in front of the two of them, his face was expressionless and he didn't answer.

When Purgatory Xingjulang saw this, although he was not as loud as Yusui Tianyuan, the conclusion he came to was also very outrageous. He clapped his fists:

"Oh! Are you going into the water to experience the true meaning of water breathing?"

"I see, it seems I also need to get into the fire..."

"Hey, hey, hey!" Yusui Tianyuan quickly grabbed Purgatory Xingshoulang with a frightened look on his face. He shouted in disbelief: "Don't mess around!"

Tomioka Giyu, who was standing opposite the two, listened to the conversation between the two and did not answer.

He just watched them silently, waiting for the two of them to go on the road with him.

That's when.

"Mr. Tomioka~"

A little head popped up from behind Tomioka Giyu. She smiled and tied her hair with a butterfly-shaped hairpin:

"It turns out Mr. Tomioka really can't swim~"

"Eh--"

The visitor was wearing a special feather fabric that reflected light, with black stripes interspersed throughout it, just like the folded wings of a butterfly, it was very beautiful.

There were also some water stains on the corners of her clothes.

Insect Pillar - Butterfly Ninja.

At this moment, she was smiling and looking sideways at the expressionless Tomioka Giyuu.

When Yusui Tianyuan and Purgatory Anjuro saw the Butterfly Ninja, their faces suddenly showed expressions of "sudden realization".

Then, the two looked at each other.

Purgatory Anjuro just wanted to say something happily.

"Well!!"

But suddenly Yu Xu Tianyuan covered his mouth!

"Haha, hahaha, Tomioka, very gorgeous!" Yusui Tianyuan laughed twice, and he violently pulled Purgatory Xingjulang.

Passing by Butterfly Ninja and Tomioka Giyu, he forcefully pulled Purgatory Anjuro and left.

"Tomioka, let's leave first." Yusui Tianyuan raised his hand without looking back, waved behind him, and then disappeared in a flash.

"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu" Purgatory Xingjulang's voice could be faintly heard.

Tomioka Giyu turned his head and saw the two people leaving, so he was ready to follow them.

He paid no attention to the Butterfly Ninja.

After a while.

Tomioka Giyu slowly walked away.

Creak...

The Butterfly Ninja looked at Tomioka Giyu's back, and veins slowly appeared on her smile.

She took a few steps and caught up with Tomioka Giyu. At the same time, her tone became strange. Butterfly Nin tilted her head and squinted her eyes:

"Hey, Mr. Tomioka."

"For me, the person who rescued Mr. Tomioka from the water..."

"Don't you have anything to say, Mr. Tomioka?"

"Mr. Tomioka?"

Snap.

Tomioka Giyuu stopped, he slowly turned his head and looked at Butterfly Ninja with calm eyes.

He seemed to have been thinking for a while, then he raised his head:

"Thanks."

Tomioka Giyuu said this.

Butterfly Ren was stunned for a moment.

Then he slowly reacted and tilted his head with a smile:

"?"

Just when the butterfly ninja wanted to be unable to bear it any longer.

Tomioka Giyu suddenly took out something from his arms and handed it to Butterfly Ninja:

"this is for you."

Snap, snap.

It is a little dilapidated flower.

Although it is dripping water.

The butterfly ninja lowered his head and looked at the little flower, feeling a little dazed for the first time.

She quietly raised her eyes and glanced at Tomioka Giyu.

There was something incredible and unbelievable about this look.

When Giyuu Tomioka saw that the Butterfly Ninja had no intention of taking it, he kept stretching out his hand without moving.

Seeing this, Butterfly Ninja carefully took the dilapidated flower from Tomioka Giyu's hand and said with a smile:

"Thanks…"

"Yes." Tomioka Yoshiyuki nodded without any politeness.

The butterfly ninja heard this, but this time he just smiled softly and didn't say much more.

On the way.

"Mr. Tomioka~"

"How did Mr. Tomioka protect such a flower when it fell into the water?"

"You obviously can't swim, but you are very dexterous in this area?"

Tomioka Giyuu did not reply.

In the Ubuyashiki mansion.

Several figures were gathering in the courtyard, drinking tea and chatting.

Playing chess.

The man wearing an open white haori with the word "kill" written on the back and a ferocious expression, with a light green Nichirin sword hanging on his waist, suddenly slapped the chessboard:

"Hey, hey, hey, Qiangtu!"

He spoke in a bad tone and looked at Qiu Tu, who was sitting in front of him and playing chess with him:

"How long have you been thinking about this!"

Qiantu was squinting his silver eyes, his flesh-colored hair swaying slightly in the wind, and he lowered his head in thought.

"Don't be anxious, Immortal River, be patient." Qiang Tu said:

"Right away, right away I'll know what's next."

Snapped!

"ah……"

Hearing this, Immortal Kawa Saneya immediately covered his face with one hand, leaned back, and his helpless tone revealed despair:

"You've been...having sex all morning..."

"Don't be anxious..." Qiang Tu still took his time.

aside.

The flower column - Butterfly Kanae was holding tea, approached with a smile, and then placed it in front of everyone.

Snake Pillar - Yihei Xiaoba Nei was lying curled up on the tree, closing her eyes to relax.

Rock Pillar - Mingming Island Xingming sat cross-legged, closed his eyes, and silently recited Buddhist scriptures.

Kasumashira——Tsikuni Muichiro smiled, leaning under the tree and watching a few people playing chess.

Love Pillar - Mitsuri Kanroji, squatted next to the chessboard, frowning as if she didn't understand.

(The Kanroji family has an elder brother in Sakurabake’s original family.)

Today is the day when the former water column, Qiang Hao, will hand over the position to the new water column, Tomioka Giyu.

That's why the Lord suddenly convened such a meeting.

And Tomioka Yoshiyuki.

——He was delayed for a while because he went to attend his sister's child's birthday party on the way.

The takeover time was changed from morning to noon.

This is also the reason why the pillars play chess here to pass the time.

Time passes slowly.

Slowly, Yusui Tianyuan, Tomioka Giyu and others also gradually arrived.

"Here we come." Qiantu caught a glimpse of Tomioka Giyu from the corner of his eye. He raised his head and greeted him.

"Yes." Tomioka Giyuu nodded to Qiu Tu and gave a rare smile.

Butterfly Ren stood aside and looked at this scene with wonder.

Tomioka Giyu noticed the butterfly ninja's gaze. He turned his head and looked at the butterfly ninja, his expression returned to normal.

At this time.

Creak...

On the rooftop.

The tightly closed door suddenly opened slowly.

A young and handsome man with a relaxed expression, wearing white family-patterned clothing, slowly walked out of the roof.

He stood on the edge of the roof, looking at the pillars of the Demon Slayer Corps at this moment, smiled and nodded, his tone was soft and deeply rooted:

"Long time no see, everyone."

Uh-huh!

The pillars knelt down on one knee one after another, lowered their heads, and their expressions became solemn:

"My lord!"

Taisho 1st year.

Traces of ghosts have become increasingly rare.

The number of members of the Demon Slayer Corps has gradually stopped increasing. Most of the new members are the descendants or friends of the former members of the Demon Slayer Corps.

The number of columns is increasing.

We can already see the future where ghosts disappear completely.

Thanks to countless ancestors and predecessors for their sacrifices and efforts.
