Chapter 33 - Chapter 33 Akaza: I heard an Upper Rank died?

Faced with her sister's shocking statement, even the gentle Butterfly Kanae couldn't help but be stunned for a moment.

And in that instant she was stunned, Lin Que, who was at the side, suddenly raised his hand and waved.

"Hi hi hi~ As expected of Kanae's sister, you guessed very accurately!"

"That's right, I am precisely the man who makes Kanae distracted every day, thinking of him day and night!"

Kanae tilted her head: "Lin Que, Shinobu is very serious, so don't joke around. It will be troublesome if she misunderstands."

"Huh? Is that not the case?"

Lin Que looked at Kanae in surprise: "If I remember correctly, from the first day we met, you've been looking forward to me coming, right?"

Butterfly Kanae's expression became subtle: "While that's true, I..."

"See, I didn't lie to you~"

Lin Que smiled and looked at Butterfly Shinobu: "Your sister admitted it herself."

"S-so that's how it is?"

Butterfly Shinobu couldn't help but take two steps back: "I was just guessing, but I didn't expect my sister to actually be in a relationship."

"No! You're thinking crooked!"

Butterfly Kanae quickly explained: "I was looking forward to Lin Que coming because he has the ability to defeat Kibutsuji Muzan!"

"Kibutsuji Muzan?"

Butterfly Shinobu was stunned, suddenly remembering that she had indeed heard similar rumors recently within the Demon Slayer Corps.

The head of the Demon Slayer Corps, Yaozai Ubuyashiki, had found a way to kill the Demon King Kibutsuji Muzan, and recently increased efforts to find his whereabouts.

She had thought it was just a rumor, but now it seemed to be true.

With the power Lin Que had just displayed, dealing with a Kibutsuji Muzan who didn't dare to show his face would be too easy.

However...

"Is he really not Sister's lover?"

Recalling the conversational space between Lin Que and Kanae just now, which she couldn't insert herself into at all, Butterfly Shinobu looked over with some suspicion.

"Actually, there's no need to hide it. If Sister had a lover, I would be very happy."

"Oh, so I said not to joke around."

Kanae looked at Lin Que somewhat helplessly.

To be honest, she wasn't against her sister's guess.

Lin Que was powerful and handsome, and they got along well during their daily conversations in the group chat.

If conditions allowed, she would also like to try.

But the problem now was that she and Lin Que were not on the same level at all; to try, there needed to be a breakthrough.

Silently sighing, Butterfly Kanae patiently explained.

"Shinobu, Lin Que's personality is just like that; he was just joking with you earlier."

"Actually, we are just good friends."

"Of course, it's not impossible for us to go further~"

Lin Que held up a finger and wiggled it, adding: "After all, I am a very benevolent person."

Butterfly Shinobu showed an expression that said 'as expected': "Sister, you must work hard!"

Butterfly Kanae: "..."

Forget it, when Lin Que is around, it's better not to explain.

...

Ben Zi Na: "Lin Que should have gone over by now, right?"

Miss Kaguya: "From a time perspective, he should have arrived, but I don't know why he hasn't started a live stream this time."

Sea King: "He was too eager to save someone, and forgot."

He couldn't possibly say he was watching from the sidelines, picking his moment, and it wasn't convenient to start a live stream, right?

Flower Pillar of the Demon Slayer Corps: "Thank you for your concern, I'm fine now. I'm currently heading to the Demon Slayer Corps headquarters with Lin Que."

Although Lin Que's arrival was somewhat abrupt, the Demon Slayer Corps had actually prepared to welcome Lin Que a long time ago.

Taking advantage of the time, she might as well take Lin Que there and properly thank him for his assistance.

Avenger: "Is it over already? What a pity, I wanted to see how strong the demon that could threaten Kanae was."

Hair Gel Hand: "I'm also a bit curious about what monsters from other worlds look like."

Sword Princess: "Curious +1."

Ben Zi Na: "Curious +2."

Hanma: "Curious +3."

Sea King: "There's no other way, since you want to see it, then I'll show you."

Lin Que slightly edited it, added some special effects to his entrance, and then uploaded the memory fragment to the group.

"[Group member 'Sea King' uploaded video 'The Daily Life of a Warm-hearted Administrator Helping Group Members']"

Hanma: "Emmm... warm-hearted administrator, seems fine, but I don't know why I inexplicably want to complain."

Sea King: "That must be because you're jealous that I'm too handsome."

Hanma: "Damn it, can being handsome really let you do whatever you want?!"

Sea King: "Sorry, being handsome really can let you do whatever you want."

...

While Lin Que and the others were heading to the Demon Slayer Corps and chatting in the group.

The Upper Ranks, who were originally dispersed in various places, now gathered in the internal chat room under forced teleportation.

"This is... the Infinity Castle?"

Akaza looked at Kokushibo standing above.

"Did something happen?"

"An Upper Rank died."

Kokushibo replied concisely: "Muzan is very angry now, so he called everyone here."

"An Upper Rank died?"

Akaza was stunned, his gaze instinctively sweeping around.

The Upper Ranks hadn't changed in nearly a hundred years; they were all familiar acquaintances.

In a brief moment, Akaza confirmed who was missing.

"So Doma died, how embarrassing."

Akaza's lips couldn't help but curl upwards.

Although they were all colleagues, his relationship with Doma could be said to be extremely bad.

Upon learning that the one who died was Doma, if he hadn't been mindful of the inappropriate setting, Akaza would have even wanted to laugh out loud on the spot.

"Akaza, what are you laughing at."

Just as the little man inside Akaza's heart was happily doing somersaults, Kibutsuji Muzan's icy cold voice suddenly rang out.

"Does Doma's death make you very happy?"
