The two siblings, enraged, lunged at Kocho Shinobu like madmen.
Whether a demon or a human.
Losing their reason would significantly reduce their fighting strength.
Kocho Shinobu nimbly dodged Daki’s attack, but her words were relentless.
“Look at your brother, what a pathetic sight. His body is dry and brittle, as if maggots were crawling all over him.”
“And you, Daki, you ugly monster. You may have improved your appearance, but your lack of manners is undeniable. You can't disguise your true nature, always resorting to insults.
It's clear your parents didn't raise you right.
Oh, right, you don't have a father, do you? Hehehe...”
Her arrogant tone mercilessly crushed the siblings’ self-esteem.
Especially Gyutaro, who was already deeply insecure about his origin and appearance. Now, being publicly humiliated by Kocho Shinobu, the last remnants of his sanity shattered.
“I'll kill you!”
“Bring it on.”
Seeing the siblings lined up, Kocho Shinobu couldn't help but feel a surge of excitement.
To kill this demon, she needed to sever both their necks simultaneously. Killing one wouldn't be effective.
That's why she continued to provoke them.
Swish.
Golden sword energy flashed.
Both demons were beheaded simultaneously.
Thump.
Thump.
Gyutaro and Daki's heads rolled to the ground.
Only then did they regain their senses.
They had been beheaded.
“No way, how did we...”
“It's all your fault for being so stupid! Why did you stand with me?”
“You’re the idiot, brother. You shouldn't have charged ahead of me...”
Even in death, the siblings continued to bicker.
Kocho Shinobu wouldn't be as gentle as Tanjiro and comfort these demons. They had killed so many people, and whatever fate they met was rightfully deserved.
“Where did that Yuukoku run off to?”
After dealing with the Daki siblings, Kocho Shinobu noticed that the other Upper-Rank demon, Yuukoku, had vanished. She immediately grew anxious.
If he escaped, the threat to humanity would be immense.
She searched around and finally found Yuukoku, dead at Su Han’s hands.
Su Han looked up and asked, “You’re done?”
Looking at the mangled corpse of Yuukoku, Kocho Shinobu nodded, but then her face turned worried. “Su Han-san, what if Muzan fears us and decides to hide?”
While fighting the demons, she hadn't considered this possibility.
Now, she was filled with apprehension.
If he hid for hundreds of years, it would be impossible to find him.
“Don’t worry. As long as we spread the news about the Blue Spider Lily, he won’t be able to resist. He’ll have to show himself.”
Kocho Shinobu nodded.
That was true.
Although Muzan could hide, the Blue Spider Lily was an irresistible temptation. Besides, this display of power should deter the Demon King for now.
At least, there shouldn’t be any increase in demons for a while.
The battle was over.
The strange feeling that had been lingering in Su Han’s heart finally dissipated.
Su Han felt that Muzan wouldn’t dare send more of his minions to their deaths. So, he turned to Kocho Shinobu and said, “It’s getting late. Let's go back and rest.”
“Okay.”
Ten minutes later.
Inside the luxurious guest room of the inn.
Su Han comfortably rested on the edge of the wooden tub while Kocho Shinobu knelt behind him, shyly scrubbing his back.
“Is this pressure okay?”
“Very comfortable, Shinobu, I love your technique.”
Hearing his praise, Kocho Shinobu giggled and applied more force with her small hands.
Although he had entered the Golden Core stage, his body was no longer prone to grime. However, being pampered by a beautiful woman felt incredibly comfortable, both physically and mentally.
Su Han had a wonderful night, except for the final step.
Kocho Shinobu had done everything else.
Just before dawn.
The young woman nestled in Su Han’s arms and softly asked, “Su Han-san, if we can defeat the Demon King someday, can I go to your world? I... I won’t interfere with your life. I just want to be by your side.”
Kocho Shinobu knew clearly that someone like Su Han was destined for greatness.
He wouldn’t be alone in the future, surrounded by many women.
To stay with him for the long term, she had to understand her position.
Kocho Shinobu didn’t ask for much. She just wanted Su Han to spend time with her when he had time.
Su Han reached out and stroked the girl’s cheek. “The moment I saw you, you became mine, Shinobu… But wouldn’t you regret it?
What about Kanao and Kanae?”
“I don’t regret it! I’m so happy to be with you. As for Kanao and Kanae, let them come with us. I don’t want to leave them behind in this world.”
With these words, Kocho Shinobu essentially gifted her sisters to Su Han.
What else could she do?
Their family had been victims of demons since childhood. They stayed with the Demon Slayer Corps to avenge their parents.
Once the Demon King was gone, the Demon Slayer Corps would be disbanded.
They would have no one else. It would be better to follow Su Han to his world.
Su Han wasn’t surprised by Kocho Shinobu’s answer. He patted her smooth back and said, “Then that’s settled.”
