The curve of Doma's smile did not change in the slightest as he raised his hand and tossed his "food" aside.
"What is wrong with you people from the Demon Slayer Corps~?"
He seemed a little hurt. Lowering his head slightly, he turned to look at the three of them. "I haven't even said anything. Why do you all come at me with barbed words the moment we meet~?"
"Can you cut it out?" Tengen Uzui frowned. "Putting on an act in front of someone as flamboyant as me-don't you think that's pretty pathetic?"
So he's Doma?
Kanao had heard from Shinobu about Kanae's encounter with Upper Rank Three four years ago. Shinobu had seemed a little down during that late-night conversation.
That time, not only had Kanae faced a life-or-death ordeal, but Mr. Haruto had also nearly died at Doma's hands.
Kanao stared fixedly at the man. If Kanae had really died back then, she could not imagine what her life would be like now.
Perhaps because the demon's gaze was focused mostly on her, the oppressive aura coming from him nearly made Kanao faint.
Fear clamped around her throat, leaving her knees weak.
Kanao's eyes were wide.
Damn it... damn it...
A hand slipped beneath her arm. Inosuke steadied her a little and nodded at her.
"Don't be scared, Kanae! Just charge!"
...That's my sister's name.
But that was not what mattered. Kanao took several deep breaths, recalling her sisters' advice the night before the battle.
"If you run into that rainbow-eyed Doma, no matter what, you have to help me..."
Dressed in her pajamas, Shinobu Kocho gritted her teeth and punched the quilt. "Teach him a lesson! Killing him would be even better!"
"Anyone who tries to destroy other people's lives deserves to be sent to Hell!"
