33 Chapter 33 : Shinobu is confused

Slowly stirring awake from sleep Shionbu looked around her surroundings in confusion.

"agh! Where am I?" Shinobu muttered confused. Then slowly her mind cleared up and she immediately became alert and looked for Haruto. But she only saw Kanao next to her sleeping peacefully and there was no sign of Haruto.

"Fuck what's wrong with me? I can't believe I fell asleep near a demon of all." She clutched her head in distress. 

Shinobu looked at the direction of the cage entrance. The cave was deep so she could hardly see the light but she could vaguely see the light coming from outside through a few cracks. Obviously it should be daytime outside.

She became perplexed thinking what's a demon doing during the daytime, shouldn't it be hiding in the cave.

At the same time, her purple eyes also began to flicker slightly, Since the demon was not there it's an opportunity for her to escape.

But glancing at Kanao she gave up again. She can feel that the demon has no intention of harming her nor does it intend to eat her. Moreover, it has also said that it will let her go, so she has to hold it back, after all, she can't be sure. Whether it's a deliberate act by the demon?

"However, he really is a strange demon."

She no longer remembered how many times she had sighed like this because of the demon. Anyway, everything about the demon was completely beyond her understanding.

After some time Haruto returned and he took a look at Shinobu, who was combing Kanao's hair.

Although, he also combed Kanao's hair during the time when he helped Kanao take a bath before, but he is not very good at these things after all, so the combing is naturally not good-looking.

Seeing that in the hands of Shinobu, the hair gradually turned into a pair of ponytails, which also added a touch of youthful color to the dull girl at the moment, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

...........

After staying in the cave for two peaceful days, Shinobu's leg and wrist injuries are almost healed.

Although the girl's medical skills are very powerful, her muscles and bones have been injured a little worse than normal. Obviously, medical skills alone cannot solve these problems.

However, the recovery ability of the girl is obviously different from that of ordinary people. In just two days, the part that was injured by the gunshot wound has almost healed.

Of course, in the past two days, he has not been idle, he will go hunting to provide the necessary nutrition for the two of them.

Pheasant, mountain rabbit, wild boar, mountain deer...

The small cave is full of prey.

Sufficient food, together with the help of Shinobu, a person who is proficient in pharmacy and medicine, Kanao's body has also recovered a lot. Her pale face is now much more clear, flushed and cute.

He was looking forward to the full recovery of Kanao, so that she doesn't look like a beggar on the street and a little expectation for her future development.

......

That night. As the soft moonlight fell, his body started to feel full of strength again.

During the day, he always feels weak and doesn't want to move much but at night his strength will be particularly strong. And always staying in a boring cave for a long time will be boring.

In the first two days, he would go out to practice swords.

But today, looking at Shinobu who has almost fully recovered, he couldn't help but raise his eyebrows: "Shinobu, do you want to go out and fight?"

Shinobu, who was combing Kanao's hair, couldn't help raising her head, looking at Haruto who was eager to try, his purple eyes sparkled slightly.

Although Haruto didn't restrict her these two days, she still had the consciousness of being a captive and stayed quietly in the cave.

Now, when she suddenly heard Haruto's idea of fighting with her, she was also a little interested.

She has been staying in this dark cave for two days and she has long been a little bored. Now, Haruto's words undoubtedly fulfilled her wish and she also wanted to teach this dumb demon a lesson long time ago.

"Okay. let's try it outside ."

Almost without thinking, Shinobu agreed.

After tidying the last hair of Kanao, Shinobu clapped her hands and walked out of the cave.

Haruto smiled and led Kanao outside, looking at Shinobu's back, he was not worried that she would run away. In fact, he had intended to let the other party go long ago and if the other party really wanted to escape, he would not stop her.

Obviously Shinobu should have seen his intention, but strangely, this girl had no idea of running away for the time being.

She seems to be interested in studying him as a demon now. Since she had no intention of leaving, Haruto was thinking of involving himself in demon slayer corps when Kanae comes to retrieve her so that he could change the future a little.

When they got outside, the two parties looked at each other with a distance of more than ten feet.

Haruto stretched his hand to his back and pulled out one of his swords.

The orange hilt, four-leaf clover shape, emerald green handle, and peach-colored blade glow softly in the moonlight.

This Nichirin Blade belonged to Kanae, Shinobu's older sister. Kanae used this sword to chop on his shoulder and was taken away by him.

With one flick, he tossed the Nichirin Blade.

The girl took the Nichirin Blade in astonishment, stroked the blade then raised her head and looked at Haruto with a complicated expression.

"Giving me the Nichirin blade, aren't you afraid that I will kill you?"

She said softly, as it's a general knowledge, there are only a few ways to kill demons and Nichirin Blades is one of them.

"Well I think, at least you won't kill me for now."

Haruto shrugged and looked at Shinobu confidently. Of course, he also have confidence in his strength to resist even if Shinobu decided to attack him now.

In the past two days, with the familiarity with his own strength, his strength has already become much stronger.

"You are the strangest demon I have ever seen."

Shinobu looked at Haruto, pursed her lips and said, "You don't eat people, you don't drink human blood, you don't even have the characteristics of a demon, if it weren't for the two demon horns on your head, I would have thought you were a human. if you weren't a demon, I think you will be very popular with girls."

Haruto smiled: "Why don't you introduce your sister to me?"

"I quite like your sister."

"Very gentle, very suitable to be a girlfriend."

Shinobu raised her pretty brows and glared at Haruto annoyedly: "Your mouth is as annoying as ever."

He chuckled, didn't care much and took out another Nichirin blade from his back.

He looked at Shinobu and bent slightly: "Haruto, please give me your advice."

At this moment, his face became focused.

Shinobu also narrowed her eyes slightly, holding the hilt of the sword tightly in the palm of her hand and assumed a stance.

"Kocho Shinobu, please advise me."
