Family, there was a bond between them.
The father was the support of a family, protecting his children from harm; the same goes for a mother, preparing meals for her family, and protecting her children like a father.
Older brothers protected younger siblings, and older sisters also had to protect younger siblings, these were the bonds between family members.
"The bonds of family." Rui's eyes narrowed slightly, his hands supporting a spider web.
In front of him, kneeling, trembling, was a girl who looked a little older than him, this was his Demon Sister.
"Rui... Please, I was wrong, I was wrong... Please let me go..."
The Demon Sister's thin body was trembling, constantly begging for mercy, her face had been cut by the spider web, and her viscous blood was dripping on the ground.
She really knew she was wrong, as an older sister, she shouldn't have turned and run when she had just seen that boy talking to Rui.
"Do you really know you were wrong? Si-Sister!"
"Perhaps she doesn't know, right!"
Speaking, Takeshi walked out from behind a large tree. He had originally been looking around, seeing if he could meet Shinobu Kocho early, so that he could take her to treat Zenitsu, but he hadn't expected to encounter Rui here again.
It seemed that he had to die at his hands today, the corners of his mouth slightly raised, continuing to add, "She doesn't know! Because you guys, aren't a family at all!"
A sentence directly stabbed at Rui's bottom line, Takeshi was doing it on purpose.
"Ah! You're talking nonsense, we are a family!" The Demon Sister jumped up from the ground, loudly reprimanding him.
As an older sister, maintaining her family, protecting her younger brother, this was what she should do.
She couldn't make this mistake again this time, if she made it one more time, Rui might really kill her.
Rui looked at his older sister faintly. Since she knew she was wrong, he would give her a chance to correct her mistake, allowing her to fulfill her family duties.
"Hey! Don't go."
Takeshi shouted, cursing inwardly. This brat, this was already the second time that he had let his so-called 'family members' fight him.
The Demon Sister had to seize this opportunity, she had clearly been doing well all along, but she had messed it up today...
Being cut on the face was still minor, in the past, there had been someone who wanted to escape, and Rui had used threads to cut them all over their body, and they had eventually died under the rising sun.
This time, she couldn't mess it up again, she couldn't, absolutely couldn't!
"Ah—Die!"
A stream of threads sprayed towards Takeshi, and Takeshi stepped on the tree trunk, jumping away.
"Hey hey hey, if you're going to attack, why don't you say it in advance?
Don't think that just because you're a girl, I'll let you have your way!" Saying this, he drew his sword from his waist.
Her threads were launched from the palms of her hands, used to wrap around people or prey. Once they captured their prey, a large amount of dissolving liquid would pour out from the threads.
This liquid could dissolve the prey inside, turning it into a mass of thick juice, for her to enjoy.
"Hehe, whether you say it in advance or not, you'll be a big meal for me!" A sneer appeared on the Demon Sister's face.
Looking at the clothes the person in front of her was wearing, she could tell that he was a low-ranking demon slayer, she didn't know how many of these demon slayers she had already killed.
Her best efforts in front of Rui just now were precisely because she was confident that she could eliminate this person.
"Oh my, why say such uncute things~ The threads you released just now look really powerful!"
A gentle, watery voice appeared in the Demon Sister's ear, and a warm, soft body pressed against her from behind.
The Demon Sister didn't dare to turn her head easily, using the corner of her eye to look at the person behind her.
"Good evening, the moonlight is really beautiful tonight~"
Standing in front, Takeshi couldn't help but sigh inwardly, it had to be someone at the Hashiralevel, he had almost been unable to sense her when she appeared.
The Demon Sister quickly jumped away, looking at the woman in front of her with a wary expression.
Shinobu Kocho returning to appear here proved that Zenitsu had been rescued, and the little worry in Takeshi's heart disappeared.
Shinobu Kocho's eyes fell on Takeshi, he was still wearing a face covering? Big eyes, blinking slightly, the corners of her lips curving up, saying, "Is the moonlight really beautiful tonight?"
"Beautiful."
Takeshi answered faintly, and from Shinobu Kocho, he could tell that she was very calm, otherwise she wouldn't have asked such a question, and at the same time, she gave people a sense of gentleness.
While the two were talking, the Demon Sister seized the opportunity, releasing threads towards Shinobu Kocho, hoping to capture her.
Shinobu Kocho easily jumped up, dodging the attack with ease, not forgetting to say gently, "It seems you haven't thought about getting along with me nicely!"
Her feet stepped on the threads, and with another jump, she came in front of the Demon Sister, her feet landing on the Demon Sister at the same time, knocking the Demon Sister down.
Her body slid a distance on the ground.
Takeshi slightly turned his gaze away. Although she was gentle, her attack, no, her kick was quite ruthless.
Shinobu Kocho, who was on the Demon Sister, said gently, "It looks like you don't want to get along with me nicely at all~"
The brief exchange made the Demon Sister understand that she was no match for this woman at all, a flustered expression appearing on her face, saying, "Wa-Wait, wait, wait a minute! Please!"
Shinobu Kocho was still gentle, waiting for the Demon Sister to finish speaking.
Takeshi moved a little closer, he was also curious, being captured by Shinobu Kocho so easily, what would the Demon Sister say to excuse herself.
