Chapter 6: Sisters Gather. Treating Ubuyashiki Kagaya

Kanae Kocho returned to the Butterfly Mansion and saw that the light in her sister Shinobu Kocho's room on the second floor was still on, guessing that it must be her sister Shinobu Kocho who was still sad.

"Sister?!"

Hearing someone calling her, Kanae Kocho turned her head and saw a little girl with a side ponytail standing behind her. Black hair and purple eyes, emerald green butterfly hair clip with pink edges.

Wearing the Demon Slayer Corps uniform, the lower body is a knee-length black pleated skirt and white boots, and often tied with a white cape with a deep pink bow.

"Ah la, Kanao."

"Sister!"

Kanao saw that her sister was still alive, feeling mixed, and directly threw herself into Kanae Kocho's arms to hug her, crying constantly.

Hearing the news of her sister's death, Kanao also felt very sad in her heart, and tonight she wanted to come out for a walk, but met someone who looked very much like her sister.

Thinking it was her hallucination, she shouted "Sister" smoothly, but didn't expect her sister not only not to die but to stand alive in front of her.

"I'm back!" Looking at Kanao crying in her arms, she reached out and stroked her head to comfort her.

"Kanao, what's wrong... Sister? Really... is it really you?"

Shinobu Kocho heard the crying coming from the backyard of the Butterfly Mansion and was a bit puzzled, so she came over to see, but didn't expect to see her sister hugging the crying Kanao.

"Little Shinobu, of course it's me! Don't you recognize me after being separated for only one day?"

"Sister!" Shinobu Kocho saw her sister standing in front of her, and tears burst out, throwing herself into her arms and hugging her with Kanao, fearing that Kanae Kocho would leave the next moment.

"Sister, I thought you... I thought I would never see you again! Woo woo... Sister..." Shinobu Kocho seemed unable to accept the fact in front of her, feeling that her sister should be seriously injured, so she couldn't respond to her.

"Sorry little Shinobu, sorry little Kanao, let you worry; this matter is a long story, let's go into the house and talk!"

"Hmm!" x2

Coming into the house, Shinobu Kocho couldn't wait to ask what was going on, Kanao didn't ask, but her eyes kept looking at Kanae Kocho, also wanting to know what was going on.

"Actually, I did encounter an Upper Moon demon, and it was Upper Moon Two, an evil demon using ice! His Blood Demon Art can restrain our breathing techniques."

Then Kanae Kocho told them the whole process.

Shinobu Kocho and Kanao Tsuyuri were shocked, didn't expect the Upper Moon demon to be so powerful.

But hearing that Zero not only saved her sister but also almost beheaded Upper Moon Two, it felt like a fantasy.

But these words were said by her sister, and they had to believe it! But this matter let Shinobu Kocho know how powerful Zero was, powerful enough to almost behead an Upper Moon demon.

"Sister, where is Zero now?"

"He is now at the Master's place helping him lift the curse!"

"What?! Sister, you're not joking?"

"Ah la, of course, my little Shinobu, how could sister lie to you."

"If Zero really lifted the Master's curse, then wouldn't he..."

Shinobu Kocho said her thoughts. If Zero really lifted the Master's curse, then it is conceivable that Zero's status in the Demon Slayer Corps would probably only be second to the Master! At that time, as long as Zero could handle things, the difficulties of the Demon Slayer Corps would all be solved.

"By the way sister, you haven't told me how Zero cured the injuries on your body?" Shinobu Kocho raised the question in her heart.

Logically speaking, Zero saved her sister, so the treatment method and technology must also be very strong!

But Kanae Kocho never said this matter, which made her infinitely curious.

"This... I... this... actually, I... he" Kanae stammered and couldn't say anything, her hands kept rubbing against each other.

Once she thought of the process of this matter, her face started to blush again!

"Sister, could it be... that guy, I'm going to find him to settle the account!" Shinobu Kocho seemed to have guessed something, and was so angry that she jumped up. Kanae Kocho immediately grabbed Shinobu Kocho's hand and said: "Little Shinobu, don't blame him, this is for a reason, you listen to me carefully!"

"Good, sister, then you tell me carefully! If that guy did something to you, I will never forgive him!"

Shinobu Kocho endured the anger in her heart and sat down, listening carefully to what Kanae Kocho had to say.

Then Kanae Kocho told the process of Zero treating her.

Of course, she could only say that she took off the clothes part herself, otherwise with Shinobu Kocho's personality, she would probably take a knife to find him! At that time, only her sister would be unlucky, not him!

……

After dawn, Ubuyashiki mansion.

Ubuyashiki Kagaya, supported by Amane, brought Zero into the house, but Zero saw five people standing at the door, four white-haired and one black-haired, wearing purple kimonos with wisteria flowers.

"Zero, these five are my children, the four white-haired ones are Hinaki, Nichika, Kuina, and Kanata, and the black-haired one is Kiriya. If you have any needs, you can tell them."

Zero then saw that the black-haired one had a slight protrusion at the throat. If you don't look carefully, you would think it's a girl.

"Hmm, take me to your room, next I will help you solve the curse! But the premise is that it needs to be treated once a month, and only after three times can it be completely solved."

"Good, thank you, Zero!"

Then coming to the room, Zero took out the treatment pod from the nano-space in front of Ubuyashiki Kagaya and his wife. Ubuyashiki Kagaya and his wife were shocked by this method.

"Next, do as I say." Zero said to Amane.

"Yes!"

Three minutes later.

"Zero lord, it's ready, next I'll trouble you!" Amane said respectfully to Zero.

Zero turned around, came to the treatment pod, and said to Ubuyashiki Kagaya lying inside: "You just need to close your eyes and have a good sleep inside, don't worry about anything."

"Hmm! Thank you very much, Zero."

He closed the lid of the treatment pod, added one hundred energy crystals, entered the program, and activated the virus removal mode.

【Virus removal mode activated】

【Treatment duration: 24 hours】

After doing all this, Zero turned around and looked at Amane, frowning.

"Zero lord, what's wrong?"

Zero didn't speak, just activated his analysis glasses and scanned.

【Name: Ubuyashiki Amane—Female】

【Age: 24 years old】

【Identity: Wife of Ubuyashiki Kagaya】

【Family: Shinto Priest Clan】

【Title: Birch Tree Fairy】

【Wife of Ubuyashiki Kagaya, born in a Shinto priest family, has the bloodline of the Shinto priest clan, has four daughters and one son with her husband, and has a life-and-death relationship with her husband.】

After spending three seconds reading the data of the analysis glasses, he sat on the tatami, crossed his legs, and pinched his chin with his right hand to think.

"Shinto priest clan? Why does it sound so familiar? But I don't remember where I heard it?"

When Ubuyashiki Amane heard Zero reveal the information that she came from the Shinto priest clan, she was shocked, not understanding how the person in front of her knew.

"Sorry, offended!" Zero came to Ubuyashiki Amane, gently lifted Ubuyashiki Amane's wrist to block her mouth, looked at those eyes, the more he looked, the more familiar they became.

"Strange? Always feel like I've seen it somewhere? No no! I was in a deep sleep at that time, it's impossible to have seen it!"

"Zero lord, what are you saying?"

"Master, think about Sister Luo Li's eyes." Xiao Yue reminded beside Zero.

Zero: "Luo Li?!!!"

Zero then remembered why he looked at these eyes so familiarly, because Luo Li also had a pair of such big eyes.

"Zero lord."

"Ah! Sorry, excuse me! Just seeing your eyes reminded me of my friend." Zero quickly let go of Ubuyashiki Amane's wrist and expressed his apology.

"Zero lord."

"Ah! Sorry, excuse me! Just seeing your eyes reminded me of my friend." Zero quickly let go of Ubuyashiki Amane's wrist and expressed his apology.

"Zero lord, then I will arrange a room for you to rest next!" Ubuyashiki Amane said.

"No need, I can rest in the courtyard, so I can pay attention to the situation at any time."

"Alright, then if you have anything, please order me at any time!"

"Hmm!"

Zero opened the door and came to the courtyard, stood straight, looked up at the moon in the sky, and gradually entered a deep sleep.

Ever since he became a space-time patroller, he would train in his room whenever there were no missions.

After training, he would stand in front of his room window and look up at the depths of the starry sky, and then stand and enter a deep sleep.

Even if he came to a different world, he still retained some habits from before.

Ubuyashiki Amane looked at Zero standing in the courtyard without moving, feeling a bit strange, the first time she saw someone sleeping standing up.

Before dawn the next day, the Butterfly sisters came to the Ubuyashiki mansion and saw Ubuyashiki Amane sitting beside the treatment pod and Zero standing in the courtyard.

"Amane-sama, how is the Master now?"

"Zero lord said, it needs to wait for a day, thank you Flower Pillar lord for your concern."

"Really? That's great! By the way, what is Zero doing standing in the courtyard?"

"Not clear, he has been standing there for a whole night."

"Stood for a whole night?" Kanae Kocho was a bit curious, so she quietly came to Zero, looked at his arms crossed, his closed eyes, and his steady breathing, and found that he was sleeping.

"Ah la, actually fell asleep standing up, really wonderful!"

"Sister, this person is so strange! Actually can sleep standing up!" Shinobu Kocho whispered in her ear.

Kanae Kocho couldn't help but want to pinch Zero's face with her white and tender little hand, but Zero woke up instantly and grabbed her wrist, just wanted to take out a gun from the nano-space but found it was Kanae Kocho.

"Ah la, sorry Zero, disturbed your sleep!"

"No matter, don't do this next time, otherwise I'm afraid I'll hurt you!"

"You already hurt me!" Kanae pointed to the hand Zero was holding her wrist with.

"Sorry!" Let go of Kanae's wrist and continued to look at the sky.

"Zero, thank you for saving my sister!" Shinobu Kocho thanked him from the bottom of her heart.

She knew very well that if it weren't for Zero's timely rescue, I'm afraid her sister would no longer be in this world, and how would she live then?

"Duty-bound, even if it were someone else, they would do the same!"

"Zero, why do you sleep standing up? Is it because there is no place to rest? You can come to the Butterfly Mansion, I will arrange a room for you to rest!"

"No need, this is my habit! Ever since I fought monsters, I have been like this even when sleeping so as not to let myself relax my vigilance! There is no so-called safe place, the truly safe place is one's own strength."

"Is that so..." Kanae Kocho and Shinobu Kocho mistakenly thought that the monsters Zero mentioned were those evil demons, after all, the night was favorable for evil demons to act, so they felt Zero would be like that.

"Then why didn't you feel my sister and me coming just now?"

"Because you have no hostility and killing intent."

"Where is Xiao Yue-chan?"

"Here." Zero gently spread his clothes, and saw Xiao Yue curled up into a ball lying in the pocket of his arms and sleeping.

"Wow, Xiao Yue-chan is so cute!" Kanae couldn't help but exclaim in a low voice...

As time passed, another day passed, during which Kanae Kocho came to visit Ubuyashiki Kagaya and Zero twice and continued to perform missions.

At night, Zero came from the courtyard into the house and stood in front of the treatment pod, looking at the three-minute countdown displayed on the display.

"Zero lord, please rest well, you have been standing in the courtyard for a whole day without resting well!" Amane said.

"No matter, even if I don't rest for a few days, it doesn't matter, and the Master's first treatment is almost over, I want to ensure there are no problems before I can rest assured."

Amane didn't say anything more, just sat on the tatami and waited together.

【5... 4... 3... 2... 1... Drip! Removal complete!】

As the display showed the treatment was over, Zero stepped forward and opened the lid of the treatment pod. Amane saw this and quickly picked up the clothes prepared in advance.

Zero came to the door and waited for Ubuyashiki Kagaya to change clothes.

A few minutes later, Amane came to the door and said: "Zero lord, please follow me in!"

Coming into the house, Ubuyashiki Kagaya, who was kneeling on the tatami, had recovered a lot, and the disfigured parts of his face had all been cleared.

Although his body looked a bit weak, it was much better than the situation Zero saw for the first time.

"Zero, thank you very much for making such a huge contribution to the Demon Slayer Corps! From today on, as long as you have any requests, the Ubuyashiki family will definitely do everything to help you!" Ubuyashiki Kagaya knelt on the tatami and said very sincerely.

"No need, get up quickly!" Zero stepped forward to support Ubuyashiki Kagaya.

Today Zero stood in the courtyard all day, besides resting, he also used his analysis glasses to view a lot of information about the Ubuyashiki family. No matter from what angle he looked, he admired his character, his personality, and that heart very much.

"Zero, no matter what, thank you very much!"

"You are welcome! There are two more treatments, I will come to help you treat next month at this time, and after the three treatments are over, you can completely recover."

"That's great, so I can continue to do more for the children of the Demon Slayer Corps!"

After some conversation, Ubuyashiki Kagaya arranged for Zero to temporarily live in the Butterfly Mansion, and told Zero that he would solve his residence problem after a while. Zero indicated that it was all fine.

"That's good, at least there are acquaintances there, and it's convenient for anything. Then I'll trouble you, Master!"

Then Ubuyashiki Kagaya called his Kasugai Crow, wrote a letter and tied it to the crow's leg, let it lead Zero to the Butterfly Mansion, and told it to hand the letter to Kanae Kocho.

Looking at Zero's back as he left, Ubuyashiki Kagaya felt that the future Demon Slayer Corps might have undergone huge changes because of Zero's existence.

"Amane, trouble you to tell the other Pillar-level swordsmen children to hold a Pillar meeting."

"Yes."
