Feeling the boiling, fiery passion in Kanae Kocho's eyes... it was killing intent.
Sam Miller was quite speechless. Why did these sisters like to misinterpret his intentions so much?
In reality, Sam wasn't aware that Kanae had just received news from the 'master' about Muzan Kibutsuji's appearance. At this critical moment, his proposal seemed suspiciously timed, making it hard not to draw connections.
Feeling Kanae's faint killing intent, his eyelids twitched.
Despite her gentle demeanor, if she truly posed a threat, he wouldn't be able to subdue her right now.
"May I speak?" he offered calmly, looking sincerely into her eyes. How could he be sent by Muzan Kibutsuji?
Golden eyes and pink eyes met in the air.
Kanae tried hard to see something in Sam's eyes, but unfortunately, she couldn't discern anything.
However, she could still sense the ghost's honesty. Though honesty is something rather intangible, perhaps this was a woman's intuition.
"Of course, what I'm suggesting is just a proposal… If you doubt me, we don't need direct contact. For example, all the news can be..."
He paused, pointing into the distance.
On a distant tree branch sat a crow, the 'eyes and ears' specially trained by the Demon Slayer Corps.
"We can convey the message through this."
After Sam mentioned this, Kanae was completely relieved. Her earlier alarm had been unnecessary.
"However, there's still something I don't understand," Kanae said thoughtfully.
"Well, go ahead," Sam replied.
"Why do you want to help us? After all, you are a ghost!"
"This is really a difficult question to answer," Sam shrugged, then his golden eyes seemed to stare at Kanae affectionately. "Because, when I first saw you, I fell in love with you."
I am deeply fascinated by your gentle temperament. I can't help but fall in love with you, and I can't help but want to help you. All I hope is that you won't hate me because I am a ghost. I have worked hard for this—everything—I just... hope... that you fall in love with me, and that you can marry me after it's over."
"What!??"
Accompanied by a scream, there was a 'click' as a Nichirin Blade fell to the ground.
Kanae's delicate face froze at that moment.
Sam's words completely caught her off guard, leaving her almost unprepared.
"Kanae, look, you and I are strangers, but in this vast sea of people, we meet. Doesn't this mean that it's fate...? Maybe even fate ordained by the heavens for us to have a love story between a human and a ghost?"
Next to him, Kanao Tsuyuri looked up at her fiancé, who was gesticulating animatedly, and blinked blankly, as if trying to digest his words.
After Sam finished speaking, she unconsciously looked at Kanae.
Only then did he realize that the woman was completely stunned. On the other hand, Shinobu Kocho was staring at him with wide eyes, full of embarrassment.
He was already immune to Shinobu's glare, but he waved a hand in front of Kanae's face, who was still standing there, seemingly unresponsive, and softly called out to her.
"Hey..."
With Sam's actions, Kanae snapped back to reality.
At that moment, the girl's pretty face was quite expressive.
Sometimes blushing with shyness, sometimes frowning with anxiety, and at other times filled with worry...
The girl's range of emotions was almost fully displayed.
"I... we... just met... what you said... I... I really can't... can't accept it so quickly."
The girl lowered her head, and her pink and purple eyes were no longer as brave as when they met his golden pupils just now; they seemed extremely evasive.
Growing up, she had never heard such bold words of love. At a young age, everyone has fantasies about their other half.
It's just that she had been busy working in the Demon Slayer Corps, and had never really thought about her own personal life.
"I... I didn't know... that you had such a good impression of me at first sight, but... it's just that we don't know each other very well. We should get to know each other better. Maybe, you will find that I am not as good as you imagine..."
Kanae tried hard, using clumsy language, to carefully reject this boy, being cautious with her words so as not to hurt the first boy who had confessed to her.
But, for some reason, there was an unconscious ripple in her heart.
Girls are always impressed by their first experiences.
"Sister..."
Shinobu Kocho really couldn't bear it any longer. My silly sister, didn't you see that this guy was joking with you?
Kanae looked down at her younger sister, wondering why she suddenly called her, but when she thought of Sam's bold confession just now, she still felt flustered.
"Sister, don't pay attention to this man. He's joking; he's a pervert, always making such inappropriate jokes."
Shinobu looked at her sister angrily. Before, she almost fell for this ghost, but she didn't expect her sister to be as naive as she was.
"What!"
Kanae finally realized and couldn't help but look at Sam, but saw him shrugging his shoulders and spreading his hands: "I just thought the atmosphere was too dull, so I made a joke."
"Miss Kanae, don't take it too seriously."
"As for why a ghost like me would want to help you, the reason is simple: I've never thought of myself as being like the other ghosts in this world."
He said softly.
"You ghost, how can you make such a joke?"
Kanae was both embarrassed and angry; she really took it seriously just now.
Sam blinked and looked at Kanae.
"How do you know that I must be joking?"
Kanae couldn't help but be taken aback.
