Spider Mother opened her large green eyes, surveying the special atmosphere between the two.
Suddenly, she broke away from Busujima Saeko, ran over, and hugged Kisaragi Rin's pant leg, saying warily to Busujima Saeko, "Kisaragi-san, mine."
Busujima Saeko: "..."
Kisaragi Rin: "..."
Murata: "..."
Spider Mother's first words caused everyone around her to fall silent simultaneously.
Sensing a murderous intent for some reason, Murata secretly dragged Zenitsu away from the area.
"As expected of Kisaragi Rin, he's really popular with girls."
A murderous intent flashed, but Busujima Saeko maintained her gentle demeanor, sighing with a smile.
"Aren't you popular with girls too, Saeko? Spider Mother never let anyone touch her before."
Kisaragi Rin pinched Spider Mother's puffed-up little face, making her shrink back to palm-sized, and casually handed her to Busujima Saeko.
How dare a mere Spider Mother cause trouble for her master.
Being treated like this, a rare blush appeared on Busujima Saeko's beautiful face. She tiptoed closer to Kisaragi Rin's ear and whispered, "Actually, I don't mind."
After all, she had already anticipated all this when she came out with Shizuka Marikawa.
Facing such a difficult situation, Kisaragi Rin chose to change the subject.
"How is your current strength?"
"Hmm... telekinesis, blood turning into fire, regeneration, and a powerful physique. I'm not entirely sure of my exact strength, but that entity just now couldn't beat me anyway."
Busujima Saeko was referring to Daki. Although Daki was weak, she was still considered the peak of the Lower Moon.
Kisaragi Rin extended his hand, and Busujima Saeko, understanding, placed her hand on his, both exerting force.
Kisaragi Rin continuously increased his strength until Busujima Saeko let out a soft groan of pain, at which point he stopped.
"Your strength is probably between 12 and 13. Your physique should be similar, and your speed will be a bit faster. With your abilities, as long as you learn a Breathing Styles, fighting an Upper Moon shouldn't be a problem."
Kisaragi Rin estimated.
Besides Busujima Saeko, the Spider Mother by Kisaragi Rin's side was also an Upper Moon-level combatant.
Assassin, mage, and tank—a basic infinite-flow team had already been formed.
If several Upper Moon attacked together, Kisaragi Rin wouldn't have to fight alone.
Thinking of the Upper Moon, Kisaragi Rin had a question.
Since Daki and Kaigaku, the Upper Moon from the original plot, had become Lower Moon, where did the Upper Moon who should have appeared go?
After all, the battle scene here was so large; logically, if there were demons stronger than Gyutaro, they should have appeared long ago.
Could it be that Gyutaro was the highest combat power Muzan sent out, and he really overestimated Byō-ba?
Kisaragi Rin fell into deep thought.

Wilderness on the other side
"First Form: Shivers of First Love!"
Kanroji Mitsuri elegantly stepped forward, unleashing several slashes at the Lower Moon Six in front of her.
Even though she was cut by the blade, Nezuko felt an inexplicable sense of happiness.
This was Kanroji Mitsuri's self-created Breathing Styles.
Love Breathing!
It was said that every demon slain by Love Breathing could feel a bittersweet sensation of love.
"It's done. Who wants to go up and kill her?"
She turned to ask the two people beside her, who were Yukinoshita Yukino and Hachiman Hikigaya.
Although she didn't know why these two wanted to kill demons with their own hands, Ms. Kanroji was very accommodating and willing to satisfy their special preferences.
As a child of destiny in some sense, Yukinoshita Yukino's learning ability was quite excellent, and her own attributes were stronger than ordinary people. Hachiman Hikigaya had also exchanged for sword mastery.
Thus, the two finally completed the introduction to Breathing Styles within two days, successfully making it appear on their player panel. They couldn't wait to go out and complete Phase Three.
Then they encountered Lower Moon Six Nezuko, who was trying to avoid Mount Natagumo.
As for why Kanroji Mitsuri was here?
"There is no one in front of me who is my match. Mr. Kisaragi Rin who can say such words is so cool... Mr. Kisaragi Rin is so amazing, I have to catch up too... If I defeat this Lower Moon demon, I can become a Pillar when I go back... At that time, Kanroji Mitsuri, you can do it..."
Holding her face, Kanroji Mitsuri fell into fantasy, pink hearts continuously emanating from her, drawing frequent glances from the two behind her.
"You go first."
Yukinoshita Yukino yielded the right to execute this Lower Moon, even though this demon represented a B-rank evaluation.
"Although saying thank you feels a bit insincere, I still thank you. I will repay you in the future."
Hachiman Hikigaya took a deep breath, and his nichirin blade manifested the appearance of flowing water.
He directly slashed at Nezuko, who was offering her neck for execution.
Only after receiving the paradise's notification did Hachiman Hikigaya breathe a sigh of relief, giving Yukinoshita Yukino an OK gesture.
Seeing that Hachiman Hikigaya's task was complete, Yukinoshita Yukino quietly asked Ms. Kanroji, "Ms. Kanroji, can we continue forward? I still want to kill more..."
Her voice suddenly paused, because Yukinoshita Yukino's cat ears suddenly trembled.
A sudden sense of fear continuously surged into her body.
Every cell screamed to run.
The next moment, under the moonlight, a figure landed on a tree.
A calm voice sounded in the ears of the three.
"Did you kill Lower Moon Five?"

No Upper Moon appeared, and Kisaragi Rin felt a bit regretful. If he could encounter a lone Upper Moon, his strength could be greatly improved once more.
When the news of the Lower Moon's deaths reached Muzan's ears tonight, Muzan probably wouldn't send individual Upper Moon to their deaths again.
"By the way, have you remembered your memories as a spider demon?"
Kisaragi Rin looked at Spider Mother. As his first creation, he was still very concerned.
Spider Mother obediently stayed in Kisaragi Rin's arms, looking somewhat flustered and at a loss when faced with such a question. She opened her mouth, not knowing how to answer.
Busujima Saeko had the demeanor of a great wife. Even though Spider Mother had choked her earlier, she didn't mind.
Instead, she comforted her, saying, "Don't be afraid, Kisaragi Rin will always be with you."
This made Spider Mother's wariness towards Busujima Saeko lessen a little.
Crawling up and changing direction, Spider Mother buried her face in Kisaragi Rin's arms, saying coquettishly, "They're all bad memories. Master can just keep calling me Spider Mother."
Since Spider Mother didn't want to mention it, Kisaragi Rin naturally didn't bother to ask.
He just wanted to know what state Spider Mother was in. After all, Spider Mother and Busujima Saeko were very different. Busujima Saeko was an enhancement, while Spider Mother was a resurrection.
Now it seemed that the resurrected Spider Mother was still the previous spider mother.
Kisaragi Rin inexplicably felt that his future life would be quite troublesome.
Just then, a Kasugai Crow flew from a distance, accelerating, and before it even landed beside Kisaragi Rin, it was already anxiously shouting, "Mr. Kisaragi Rin, the Master has foreseen that Ms. Kanroji and your companions will encounter danger..."
Kisaragi Rin looked up at the night sky. The moon was bright. Tonight was still not over...
