Demon Slayer: The Journey That Began When I Became Yoriichi's Sister

Chapter 465 What does "like" mean?

Shinobu Kocho, a master of witty comebacks, is not a fragile weakling who only knows how to attack but not defend; her ability to withstand pressure is also top-notch.

Faced with Uzui Tengen's jerkiness, Kocho Shinobu's face beamed with a joyful smile as she responded with a smile.

"Believe it or not, I'll kill you, you bastard!"

Uzui Tengen's eyes nearly popped out of their sockets, his face filled with shock: "What? What did I do?!"

He only said a few words, so why are they going to kill him?

Seeing the smoke of battle rising, Tanjiro opened his mouth to speak.

"Mr. Uzui, do you have some objection to my aesthetic sense?"

Without turning around, everyone recognized the voice of the newcomer.

A smile appeared on everyone's face, especially on Kanae and Shinobu's, who turned around with smiles and called out, "Mitsuri~"

Kanroji Mitsuri carried a round fan and wore a pink yukata with cherry blossom patterns, which looked very gorgeous with her long pink and green hair.

Beside Kanroji Mitsuri, Iguro Obanai wore a black and purple kimono. Dark clothes usually seem monotonous, but because of Iguro Obanai's beautiful face and heterochromatic eyes, they added a touch of devilish charm.

To Yuko's relief, there was no longer any confusion in Obanai Iguro's eyes.

Obanai Iguro was born into a family of thieves who worshipped a demon.

With the power of the worshipped demon, the entire family made a fortune in gold and silver.

Obanai Iguro was originally intended as a sacrifice to the demon, but his escape led to the demon killing his entire family.

As a result, Obanai Iguro has been in a state of confusion ever since she was rescued by the previous Flame Pillar, Kyojuro's father.

Confused about whether his escape was the right thing to do, he dreamed every night of his family looking at him with resentment, wanting to drag him down to hell.

Having been away from the Demon Slayer Corps for almost a month, Obanai Iguro's bewildered expression had disappeared.

Of course, with a lively girl like Kanroji Mitsuri around, even the most gloomy person would become sunny.

Even Uzui Tengen couldn't help but exclaim, "Oh, two more of these flamboyant fellows have arrived."

Finally, he added, "Of course, the most magnificent one is still this great man."

"Is it an honor to be able to follow in my footsteps and chase after fashion and glamour?"

Upon hearing this, everyone's lips twitched uncontrollably.

There's a feeling of having something to complain about that I can't quite get out.

Kanroji Mitsuri's pale green eyes held a hint of resentment. Her lips were pouting, her cheeks puffed out, and she stood with her hands on her hips, questioning Uzui Tengen once more:

"Mr. Uzui, do you have any complaints about my aesthetic sense?!"

On this matter, however, Uzui Tengen refused to back down: "When it comes to splendor, you're still far from it!"

“Hmm~” Kanroji Mitsuri looked at him expressionlessly.

Uzui Tengen noticed that Iguro Obanai was also staring at him expressionlessly, and couldn't help but feel annoyed: "What? Are you two glaring at one of me?!"

"I have people too, you know?!"

With a wave of his hand, Yuzui Tengen sent a gust of evening wind whistling past, bringing a touch of coolness.

"Young crane?"

"Suma?" Uzui Tengen called out his wives' names with an embarrassed expression.

"Makio?"

Having received no response for a long time, Uzui Tengen turned around to look at the two people, their faces expressionless yet tinged with a hint of mockery.

"Ah! It's goldfish scooping!"

"What beautiful sugar figurines!"

The three women strolled around the stalls at the temple fair, looking quite happy, completely forgetting about Yuzui Tengen.

Uzui Tengen bowed his head decisively: "I'm sorry."

A wise man doesn't fight a losing battle; the disparity in strength between us and the enemy is too great.

On the other side, Tanjiro explained to Ikuko in a low voice, "When I was booking rooms at the hotel with everyone, we happened to run into Mr. Iguro and Ms. Mitsuri."

“Miss Mitsuri noticed that we were dressed too simply, so she took us to buy clothes for today yesterday.”

Upon hearing this, everyone's eyes lit up. The light was so bright that Tanjiro subconsciously turned his head, wondering if he had said something wrong.

Before he could figure it out, Kanae and Shinobu Kocho excitedly approached him.

"Living together? In one room?!"

Tanjiro leaned back slightly, embarrassed, and said, "Two rooms."

The light in their eyes quickly dimmed, and by the time Tanjiro came to his senses, they were already casually looking around, as if what had just happened was just his imagination.

Yuko smiled slightly at Tanjiro: "You're very handsome, Tanjiro."

Tanjiro was wearing a blue wavy kimono, which looked quite refreshing in the sweltering summer heat.

Tanjiro blushed upon hearing this and scratched his head somewhat embarrassedly: "Miss Yuko, it's you who looks good in this outfit."

Tanjiro was deeply moved. There are still normal people out there. As expected, it has to be Miss Yuuko.

Shinobu Kocho chimed in from the side, her slender, pale fingertips playfully pointing to one side: "Tanjiro, you should be saying that over there."

"Huh?" Tanjiro unconsciously followed Shinobu's finger and saw Kanao scooping up goldfish.

Just as Kanao carefully scooped up the goldfish, the paper net tore and fell from above, splashing water that wet a corner of her clothes.

Kanao frowned slightly and pursed her lips.

Tanjiro stared blankly at the scene.

Shinobu Kocho asked softly, "Is it pretty?"

"Hmm." Tanjiro nodded subconsciously.

……

Tanjiro was a beat slow to realize what a stupid thing he had just done, and he waved his hands in a panic.

"No, that's not the case!"

Yuko paused for a moment, then asked, "Huh? Does that mean Kanao isn't pretty?"

Tanjiro looked utterly hopeless; he was truly a fool for believing in Miss Ikuko.

What made Tanjiro even more desperate was that Hanako and Shigeru, who were holding hands with him on both sides, also provided an assist.

Well, it was just that Yuuko and Shinobu helped them.

"Brother, do you like that pretty older sister?" The two pointed in Kanao's direction and asked their older brother innocently.

Inosuke picked his pig nose: "What does 'like' mean?"

Zenitsu, his face contorted with rage, demanded, "Do you intend to betray me and Inosuke?"

"No...no..." Compared to Yuko and Shinobu's sarcastic remarks, the direct critical hits and true damage from her younger siblings were far more deadly.

As for Inosuke and Zenitsu, they've been acting crazy for a long time, and they can't affect Tanjiro's mood at all.

Tanjiro's face turned red with frustration, his brain completely shut down, and he stammered, unable to utter a single word.

Kanae stood aside, helplessly rubbing her forehead. Tanjiro was such an innocent child; just thinking about it, she knew he would be in for a terrible time. These two were really going too far.

Well, since it wasn't a prank, she can just pretend she didn't see it.

Nezuko's expression was subtle; she didn't participate, only smiling faintly.

She had long noticed that her brother had feelings for Kanao, but her clueless brother was too oblivious to realize his own feelings.
