Why did Hori Gaku want to compensate Zenitsu?
Wasn't it because Nezuko was snatched away by him in advance?
Nezuko was already his, so he would never give her to Zenitsu. This was Hori Gaku's bottom line.
But what would happen to Zenitsu without Nezuko?
Hori Gaku had no doubt that with Zenitsu's character, after losing Nezuko, no one would want him, and he would really be destined to be alone. Hori Gaku felt a little guilty that his junior fellow student would be lonely for the rest of his life because of him.
Now that he met Yae, Hori Gaku found that this girl's character should be able to control Zenitsu, and her appearance definitely met Zenitsu's requirements.
So, Hori Gaku came up with the idea of bringing them together.
If Zenitsu and Yae could be happy together, then he would have compensated Zenitsu.
This was Hori Gaku's idea.
Faced with Shinobu Kocho's doubts, Hori Gaku certainly couldn't explain why he was sorry for Zenitsu, let alone mention Nezuko.
He could only be vague and prevaricate:
"Anyway... I did something wrong to my junior brother, but he didn't know about it yet.
I felt really sorry for him, so I wanted to help him make it up to him.
Of course, I just had this vague idea, and it's not even close.
After we kill this demon, I'll ask Yae what she thinks, and see if we can lure her to the Demon Slayer Corps, to my master."
Shinobu Kocho lightly rebuked Horitake:
"What do you mean by"luring her to the Demon Slayer Corps"? That's a harsh word. Our Demon Slayer Corps is a legitimate organization."
"Yes, a formal organization, not recognized by the government, what a formal organization!"
Shinobu Kocho was too lazy to argue with Horitake about this issue.
She frowned, turned her eyes, and asked the question she was concerned about just now with a smile:
"By the way, Horitake-san, what about the Tanjiro you just mentioned, and his sister Nezuko?"
Horitake's heart sank at that moment!
As expected of Sister Shinobu, her intuition is so sharp!
Even though Horitake had already evaded the question, Shinobu Kocho still found Horitake's weak spot by intuition.
Horitake concealed his panic and said evasively:
"Ah, Shinobu is talking about my little brother and his sister.
My little brother is Tanjiro Kamado, and his sister is Nezuko Kamado.
As I just said, around this time last year, their family was massacred by demons, and all the family members of the brother and sister were killed. It was very pitiful.
It happened that Giyu Tomioka passed by and saved them.
After that, Giyu Tomioka introduced Tanjiro to his master, Senior Urokodaki Sakonji.
Later, on their way to Kyogiri Mountain, the brother and sister encountered demons again.
At the critical moment, the brother and sister were rescued by me who was passing by, and that's how I got to know this little brother.
After that, I escorted the brother and sister all the way to Kyogiri Mountain, and took a lot of effort to ask Senior Urokodaki to accept Tanjiro as my apprentice.
In this way, my relationship with my little brother Tanjiro became better and better.
That's it."
Shinobu Kocho held her chin, her whole feminine charm emanating, and she expressed her doubts gently:
"Really? Is that really all?
You have a good relationship with that little brother named Tanjiro, and you should also have a good relationship with his sister Nezuko, right?
You saved them both at the critical moment.
For Tanjiro, it was a life-saving grace, and for the little sister named Nezuko, it was not only a life-saving grace, but also a hero saving a beautiful girl!"
Speaking of this, Kocho Shinobu playfully knocked her head, and her tone became teasing:
"Oh, a hero saving a beautiful girl, why does this plot sound so familiar to me?
It seems that when you first met Mitsuri, you also used the method of a hero saving a beautiful girl?
What happened after that?
Oh, by the way, after the hero saved the beauty, Mitsuri became your possession.
So is this Nezuko sister the same?"
Hori Gaku almost kneeled down to Shinobu Kocho!
Is this a woman's intuition!? It's so scary!
The main thing is that when Shinobu Kocho said the above words, she didn't say it harshly.
She was gentle and kind, and the unique and delicate charm of a woman was exuded to the extreme. She said these words slowly in a teasing tone.
Hori Gaku is a person who is soft and not hard.
Faced with such a sister Shinobu, he can only admit defeat.
"Shinobu is right! Shinobu is wise! Shinobu is mighty and powerful!"
Shinobu Kocho snorted in annoyance, and rolled her eyes at Horitake in a coquettish manner:
"Humph! Horitake-san, are you agreeing to this?"
Horitake simply gave up and nodded:
"Yes, I admit that Nezuko is also one of my targets.
And Nezuko's situation is somewhat similar to yours, Sister Shinobu. Nezuko's parents have entrusted Nezuko to me!"
Shinobu Kocho understood what Horitake meant almost instantly.
She asked with a complicated look in her eyes:
"Is it...her parents' souls who entrusted her to you?
Just like my sister entrusted me to you?"
Hori Gaku nodded.
Now, Shinobu Kocho couldn't say anything.
Her parents had passed away, and in the state of soul, they entrusted their daughter to Hori Gaku. Even if Shinobu Kocho was unhappy, she couldn't say anything, let alone separate Nezuko and Hori Gaku.
Moreover, Nezuko's family members were killed by demons, including her own relatives.
This made Shinobu Kocho feel a sense of sympathy for Nezuko.
This feeling and emotion combined made Shinobu Kocho feel no resistance or disgust towards Nezuko, a sister she had never met.
Shinobu Kocho frowned and looked at Hori Gaku:
"How many goals do you have?"
Horitake held up three fingers seriously:
"There are only three of you, no more, I can guarantee that!"
"real?"
"Really!"
Horitake answered firmly and sincerely.
This guy's attitude was so frank and sincere that Shinobu Kocho couldn't embarrass him.
Thinking about what happened to Nezuko, Shinobu Kocho sighed and asked:
"Well, what is Nezuko's situation now?
Is she training with her brother Tanjiro under the guidance of Senior Urokodaki at Kyogiri Mountain? Are they working together to join the Demon Slayer Corps?"
Hori Gaku shook his head:
"No, Nezuko is sleeping now."
"sleep?"
"Yes, she has been sleeping for a year."
"Slept for a whole year! ?"Kimeishuno asked curiously,"Could it be that he has some strange disease?"
"No.
Nezuko is transforming her body through sleep.
She is transforming her body so that she can recover her strength just by sleeping, instead of having to eat humans!"
Shinobu Kocho thought about it and was suddenly shocked. Her face immediately darkened and she reached out to pull out her Sun Blade!
