ch73

Night.

It was so deep that, in a place like Shadow Peak, there were few people. Except for one or two lights, being here made it seem as if the whole world was dark.

The peak of the misty mountain.

Makomo and Sabito came here early.

However, there was sadness in their eyes. The distance between their strength and Sam Miller's was getting wider and wider. Now, even when joining forces, they couldn't withstand many moves against Sam.

While this made them a little frustrated, it also ignited a stronger motivation in their hearts.

"We've been waiting."

A slight voice sounded.

Makomo and Sabito turned their heads sharply. Under the moonlit night, a young man wearing a bamboo hat stood quietly on a branch.

When did he come?

They hadn't noticed it at all.

Sam's speed of improvement simply surprised them.

Is this the so-called ghost?

"Hoo hoo..."

Taking a deep breath, Makomo and Sabito also bent slightly: "Let's get started, sir."

These days, every night, they would ask for advice. Sam's progress was rapid, but they were not standing still.

"No..."

Sam shook his head.

Hearing Sam's refusal, both Makomo and Sabito couldn't hide the disappointment in their eyes. Indeed, Sam's strength had surpassed them too much now, and they could no longer improve by competing with him.

"Is it because our current strength is too weak?"

Makomo raised her head and couldn't help asking.

Sam's eyes fell on Makomo.

The girl had short black hair, a pink shirt embroidered with petals, and a fox mask. Just standing there with her petite body gave off a very cute feeling.

He shook his head.

"It's not that, then why..."

Sabito next to him couldn't bear it anymore.

"Compared to competition, I think actual combat can test everything better."

He looked at Makomo and Sabito and smiled.

"Actual combat..."

Makomo and Sabito murmured slightly, already guessing in their hearts.

"Sir, you mean..."

Makomo couldn't help pinching the hilt of the sword at her waist with her small hands, feeling a little eager to try.

"As you think."

Seemingly guessing what Makomo wanted to say, Sam nodded: "What you will face in the end...isn't it a demon?"

"Including the trial of Mount Sagiri that you will participate in, you should also face demons, right?"

He looked at Makomo and Sabito, and asked seriously: "So"

"Come with me."

"It just so happens that I also want to go out and see the strength of demons in this world."

He said softly.

The reason he invited the two of them was because he wanted to know the location of the demons in this world through their knowledge.

Otherwise, the world is so big and full of people, where would he go to look for demons?

Of course, Makomo and Sabito definitely don't know now.

But Sakonji Urokodaki knows.

Sakonji Urokodaki, as the "Water Pillar" of the Demon Slayer Corps, must have information about the active range of demons in this world.

As the disciples of Sakonji Urokodaki, Makomo and Sabito can get information from the "Water Pillar."

Originally, he was looking forward to Shinobu Kocho, but Shinobu didn't know about it.

It turned out that Kanae Kocho knew that Shinobu hated demons very much.

She was afraid that Shinobu would go hunting demons alone and that her sister would have an accident.

So, about "demons"

Information was rarely shared with her.

As for Shinobu herself knowing, it is even more impossible. Shinobu is just an ordinary member of the Demon Slayer Corps now, and the information about demons can only be known by the Demon Slayer Corps to them.

It's just a pity that Kanae Kocho is not there.

If Kanae Kocho were here, he wouldn't have to bother Makomo and Sabito either.

Makomo and Sabito were also a little hesitant.

But after thinking for a long time, they finally nodded and said: "Let's go back and ask the master."

Sam couldn't help showing joy when he heard this.

"No need to ask."

A slightly hoarse voice sounded, and Sakonji Urokodaki, who was wearing a blue shirt and a tengu mask, walked slowly.
