The daylight was dazzling.
A crow flew across the distant sky.
It spread its wings, soared for a time, and finally flew into Ubuyashiki's room.
From that moment, a bombshell of news instantly shook the entire Demon Slayer Corps!
Lady Amane first spread the news, then slowly sat down beside Kagaya Ubuyashiki.
She told him the good news.
Kagaya Ubuyashiki coughed up a mouthful of blood in his excitement, then propped himself up into a sitting position.
"Wonderful! Su Chen!"
"He truly is the Demon Slayer Corps' hope, because the situation that remained unchanged for a thousand years has now changed!"
"No one has slain an Upper Rank in a thousand years! But Su Chen did it!"
"That boy Tengen did well too. He even helped Su Chen hold off an Upper Rank for a moment."
"One, two, three! Three whole Upper Ranks! This is a glorious achievement for the Demon Slayer Corps!"
Kagaya Ubuyashiki said a great deal in quick succession, while Lady Amane supported him at his side.
Lady Amane understood completely. After all, Kagaya Ubuyashiki-or rather, not just Kagaya, but the entire Ubuyashiki Clan-hated demons to their very bones.
What Su Chen had done let Kagaya see hope.
It was also hope for the Demon Slayer Corps.
No one knew that the boy who had first joined had now grown into an eagle!
He had slain three Upper Ranks in succession, using his absolute strength to shatter the legend that Upper Ranks could be defeated too!
It could be said that this feat alone was enough to immortalize Su Chen's name in the Demon Slayer Corps.
Because he had accomplished something no Demon Slayer Corps member had managed in hundreds upon thousands of years!
The news spread farther and farther.
Inside the Butterfly Mansion.
