But that sounds so outrageous!
Shinobu Kocho's lips twitched, and she silently looked away.
Just as Ryosuke had predicted.
Out of trust in him and a vague feeling of affection, Kanae finally gave in and smiled.
"sure."
Kanae nodded, her tone soft: "If this is what Ryosuke wants, I have no problem with it. I'm glad you like it."
She thought this might be Ryosuke's clumsy yet unique way of showing concern.
It's strange, but not annoying.
No! Sister! You've changed! How could you spoil him like this!
Shinobu Kocho, standing to the side, was screaming inwardly, her worldview being challenged like never before!
Kanae is mild-mannered and gentle to everyone.
But she maintained a sense of propriety, keeping her bottom line and distance.
Shinobu Kocho saw Kanae's completely accepting expression and Ryosuke's relieved look as he accomplished his mission, and her vision went black.
This absurd scene made her want to punch the Earth to pieces!
The whole world is like a giant pear blossom!
The ingredients are complex, bizarre, and infuriating!
Let's die together! Now!
“Even if I follow along, I cannot neglect the mission and training. I will apply to the lord.”
Ryosuke pondered for a moment, then continued, "You can continue as usual. If any special circumstances arise, follow my instructions."
"Okay Mr. Ryosuke."
Kanae nodded obediently.
Over the next few days, the Butterfly Mansion members witnessed a miraculous scene.
The hardworking Naruhashi, who always had a clear goal and would sneak out to kill demons at the drop of a hat, suddenly found himself with nothing to do.
Whether Kanae was on a mission, training, or tending to herbs in the herb garden, Ryosuke was always by her side.
Sometimes he would rest under a tree not far away, holding his knife; other times he would go out to help.
Even more extreme, he would secretly observe from the rooftop alone.
Kanae was initially a little uncomfortable, but Ryosuke did nothing unusual except follow her around, and rarely even spoke to her.
She gradually got used to it and did what she was supposed to do.
Shinobu Kocho had no choice.
After all, he couldn't speak harshly to his own sister, and Ryosuke couldn't beat her.
Fortunately, that perverted and obsessive woman, Rika, didn't come over to cause trouble.
Since recovering from her injury, she has become much more well-behaved, spending most of her time training in Momoyama, and spending less time with Ryosuke.
This is rare good news for Shinobu Kocho.
However, she still couldn't rest easy seeing the strange way Ryosuke and Kanae interacted.
Shinobu Kocho tried several times to talk to Kanae privately, but Kanae always turned her away, saying that "Mr. Ryosuke must have his reasons for doing this."
To make matters worse, the missions mostly take place at dusk or late at night.
There were other team members traveling with us before.
Now, all of Ryosuke's applications have been rejected.
What's with this talk about conserving manpower? He's enough!
Ryosuke's concern was that Doma was too overpowered; anyone who wasn't a Pillar-level fighter would just be feeding the enemy.
The Demon Slayer Corps doesn't need to make these pointless sacrifices.
Moreover, with fewer people around, it's easier to farm monsters and harvest resources.
But to Shinobu Kocho, these things took on a completely different meaning!
A lone man and a lone woman setting off together?
The lord has agreed!
Left with no other option, Shinobu Kocho went to Ryosuke, even though she knew it wouldn't be of much use.
"Mr. Ryosuke, don't you think this is inappropriate?"
Ryosuke thought she was worried about their safety, so he laughed heartily and patted her on the shoulder.
"Don't worry, Shinobu, I'm here. I won't let anything happen to Kanae."
Shinobu Kocho: ? ? ?
I only feel at ease when you're around!
"Sister! Say something!"
Kanae paused in her packing, then smiled gently.
"Don't worry, Shinobu, it's alright. I trust Mr. Ryosuke."
Butterfly's lips twitched, her feelings a complex mix.
Although she had wanted to bring the two of them together from the beginning, this was definitely not the way!
"Mr. Ryosuke, what kind of bewitching potion did you give my sister?"
"Xiao Ren, you're overthinking it."
Ryosuke crossed his arms and looked at Kanae, adding, "Isn't this good?"
Damn it!
The butterfly felt an urge to slap him twice.
However, in recent times, Ryosuke hasn't done anything out of line; he's just been following Kanae around.
Butterfly sighed softly and shook her head.
Forget it, as long as you are happy.
Time flies, and a week has passed in the blink of an eye.
Today is the day Ryosuke goes to visit Tokito's brothers.
Kanae also had a rare moment of leisure thanks to Kagaya's behind-the-scenes manipulation.
The two decided to set off together.
On the way, Kanae was also very curious.
"Mr. Ryosuke."
"Just what kind of person is Tokito? How could the Lord take you so seriously?"
"A pair of brothers who are the complete opposite of you and Shinobu."
Chapter 134 Sleeping together, in front of the two kids?!
"Let's put it this way."
Ryosuke looked at Kanae's confused expression and carefully chose his words.
"My older brother, Ichiro, is awkward and sharp-tongued. He's a complete stubborn person and very difficult to get along with."
"My younger brother, Muichiro, is kind and innocent; he's a very good kid."
Ryosuke's words made Kanae cover her mouth and chuckle.
"Mr. Ryosuke's explanation is indeed... quite straightforward."
She paused, then added, "It must be very hard for the younger brother to live with his older brother, right?"
“That’s how it was at first.”
This is also the daily life of the two brothers in the original work.
However, recently, some deviations have occurred.
Ryosuke scratched his head, puzzled.
"For some reason, it's strange that Ichiro, that stubborn bastard, actually lowered himself and got along peacefully with Muichiro a while ago."
"That's it..."
Kanae raised an eyebrow, understanding dawning on her.
Clearly, the older brother's position was threatened, or rather, he was jealous!
"Ichiro must really dislike Mr. Ryosuke."
"You guessed right, but why would I need a little brat like him?!"
Ryosuke pursed his lips and waved his hand.
Kanae smiled without saying a word.
The two walked quickly and arrived just in time to find Muichiro waiting at the door, his face full of anticipation.
"Mr. Ryousuke!"
Muichiro waved his hand, and was clearly taken aback when he saw Kanae next to Ryosuke.
Ryosuke nodded in response.
Muichiro's relaxed expression was replaced by unease.
He glanced at Kanae, then at Ryosuke.
"Mr. Ryosuke, this is..."
