Chapter 2 Target: Ibaraki Doji

Yul Tianyuan did not reveal the content of the meeting to the three teenagers, but asked them to leave Huajie quickly.

Of course Kamado Tanjiro disagrees.

Let's not talk about what happened to Ul Tengen's three missing wives after they left. It seems that the Demon Slayer Squad has news about the Demon Slayer who killed his family, and Tanjiro is helpless.

Leave in peace.

Yul Tianyuan is actually a little anxious.

He can be sure that there are indeed ghosts in this flower street. Otherwise, his three wives who have been trained as ninjas cannot disappear for no reason. They must have encountered danger while collecting intelligence. It may be okay now. When the preparations of the Demon Slayer Team for encirclement and suppression are exposed,

The possibility that they are still alive is...

Yul Tianyuan was not in the mood to convince the three recruits to obey the order, so he left immediately after the order, seizing the time to continue looking for his wife, even if there was a chance he could not give up.

The three boys dressed as women who were left behind looked at each other.

"I don't want to leave." Kamado Tanjiro said directly, he was a little excited, "I suspect that Oni Wu and Muzan are coming."

The blond boy was immediately frightened: "Hey! Shouldn't we run faster then?! The guy just now told us to leave because our level is not high enough! Anyway, 'Pillar' will definitely come! We can only deliver food! I

Not married yet! I don’t want to die yet!”

"Zenitsu, if you want to leave, go ahead." Kamado Tanjiro looked at him apologetically, "But I want to stay, I'm sorry..."

"What are you apologizing for?" My wife, Zenitsu, was helpless and anxious, "Listen to me, there is no need..."

Kamado Tanjiro, who has long been accustomed to my wife Zenitsu's style, looked at the last person: "Where is Inosuke?"

"Ah? Of course I'll stay!" Inosuke responded with a rude tone that was completely opposite to the impression given by his delicate appearance.

My wife, Zenitsu, collapsed: "Ahhhhhhhhhh...I've convinced you! I don't care about you!"

Having said that, my wife Zenitsu didn't leave in the end, and agreed to help keep an eye on Ul Tengen's movements. However, it was Tanjiro Kamado who had a keen sense of smell who first noticed Ul Tengen's whereabouts.

Kamado Tanjiro jumped up to the roof and looked at the direction Ul Tengen was running to, then turned around and followed him with the box containing his sister on his back.

The other two friends, according to the previous agreement, stayed to continue to help Yul Tianyuan find his missing wife and the ghosts in Huajie.

Tanjiro Kamado rushed in the direction of Ul Tengen as fast as he could, and soon left the area of ​​Flower Street. The excitement suddenly disappeared, and a desolate atmosphere gradually enveloped the forest.

Although there was actually no trace of Ul Tengen at this time, Tanjiro Kamado still successfully found the location where the Demon Slayers surrounded the target person.

“This smell——!!!”

Kamado Tanjiro's far superior sense of smell allowed him to smell the strong scent of Onimi's Yin Muzan from a distance, but he soon noticed something was wrong.

Although the smell of Guiwu and Muzan is obvious, it is also mixed with other flavors. Rather than saying that it is Guiwu and Muzan, it is more likely that it was given a large amount of Muzan's own blood.

There were a lot of people, and the circle around the ghost hunters was also very large. He could only see what was happening in the crowd by jumping to a tree, and there were other team members on the tree... Anyway, Tanjiro Kamado squeezed in, and finally he was able to

See what happened.

Yul Tianyuan, who had thrown him away early, was chasing a young man with two knives. The young man was dressed exactly as he had seen in the portrait not long ago.

The young man held up his white hat with one hand and used his sword to intercept Yul Tianyuan with the other hand. He was more defensive than offensive, and seemed to have no malicious intent.

Kamado Tanjiro felt a little strange and closed his eyes and smelled it carefully.

The smell of ghosts does not come from this person... Although it is not a human smell, it is very clean and has nothing to do with ghosts.

Then didn’t they get the wrong person?!

Kamado Tanjiro hurriedly shouted to Yul Tengen: "Mr. Uzuru! He is not Muzan!... Although he doesn't seem to be a human! But the girl flying in the sky smells like Muzan... But she doesn't seem to be Muzan either.

ghost!"

"Ah? Isn't it obvious at a glance that there is no misfortune?" Yul Tianyuan did not stop attacking at all, "But eating people is not wrong, right?"

The black-haired girl, who had an aura of innocence and flew away from the battlefield in mid-air, said unhappily: "Ryoma didn't eat people! Besides, you just smell delicious!"

The young man named Ryoma smiled bitterly and said: "...That's why I said that I hope you change this way of greeting...Forget it, just stay up there and don't move, I will handle it myself."

The innocent Sakamoto Ryoma ver Nanaya sighed deeply.

Why!!! He thought he finally had someone he could communicate with! But because Aaron didn’t say a word correctly, he inexplicably turned on the battle mode!!!

In the past, the Heroic Spirit Cards he used when transforming were all single, Qiye, a heroic spirit that could be controlled by one consciousness. This was the first time he used a Heroic Spirit Card with another consciousness.

Sakamoto Ryoma, a reformist in the Meiji Restoration era of Japan, can be said to have laid the foundation of modern Japan. He is a well-known celebrity in modern Japan. People think that he is the hero who saved Japan... At this point in the world, it has been

He had been dead for decades, so Nanaya used Sakamoto Ryoma’s Heroic Spirit Card with confidence.

Although Aaron has the same name as Sakamoto Ryoma's wife in history, they are not the same person in the Xingyue world view. Just think of Aaron as his partner and noble phantom.

This kind of Noble Phantasm with its own consciousness will make Qiye less boring when doing tasks. It is equivalent to having a companion who can be assured, but he never thought that Aaron would be so hateful...

Although he did consider contacting the Demon Slayer Corps to share information so that he could find the heroic spirit that he needed to deal with in the mission target as soon as possible, so he hesitated and did not run away directly when encountering such a thing.

I plan to wait until the person in charge of the Demon Slayer Squad arrives to talk about it...

――Why does this Yul Tianyuan guy smell so delicious? If it tastes bad, Aaron won’t say the wrong thing!

Like an eccentric parent, Qiye put the blame on Yul Tianyuan very protectively.

Qiye tried to communicate: "How about stopping first?"

Yul Tianyuan asked sharply: "Are you humans?"

"……no."

Qiye was speechless. The guy with the sharp nose had just said that he was not a human being. Denying it at this time would only make people more suspicious.

But the fact that he admitted that he was not human was not very effective, and it still made the people around him more nervous.

Yul Tianyuan raised his eyebrows at Qiye: "You are really honest..."

"You should have seen my sincerity." Qiye emphasized.

"……"really.

When Yul Tianyuan received the news and rushed over, he was worried about seeing the corpses of the Demon Slayer Squad members scattered all over the field. To make matters worse, so many people died but they couldn't stop the Demon Slayer. However, he saw An An in the crowd.

When the young man and girl were waiting in the center, he was confused for a moment.

The moment he reacted, Yul Tianyuan was already sure that this was definitely not Gui Wu and Wu Mei, and that guy was not so soft-hearted.

Because I just came here on a trial basis, I didn’t really think I could meet Gui Wu and Wu Misai, so besides Yul Tianyuan, there was only one other ‘pillar’ who came here in the plan. For some reason, Yul Tianyuan was not there, so Yul Tianyuan had to go up on his own.

.

At first, he wanted to ask in a friendly manner, but the girl with oppressive red eyes tilted her head, looked at him and opened her mouth and said -

"Ryoma! This guy smells really delicious! Tastes better than the others!"

This sentence made Yul Tianyuan immediately feel relaxed.

...Although the team members were all alive and well until he arrived today, judging from the intelligence and the girl's performance, it was already certain that she was not a human being.

Those who are not from my race must have different thoughts. Although Yul Tianyuan is not so extreme as to think that all non-human beings must die, he still doesn't like a guy with unknown background who can easily say cannibalism.

As for the other young man...he didn't say anything alarming, but he probably wasn't a good person if he could have a monster following him who opened his mouth and shut up just saying, "This person is delicious."

Maybe the friendliness and non-aggression so far are just a disguise.

Maybe this is not a disguise, they really have no ill intentions towards the Demon Slayer Squad.

But no matter what, Yul Tianyuan didn't dare to risk that possibility. The decision he made would affect the lives of everyone present, so he could only choose to test.

"I'm delicious? Can I take this as a provocation? You are still carrying a knife many years after the sword abolition order was announced. You are not an ordinary person. Why don't we discuss it - please give me some advice!"

Yul Tianyuan, who found an excuse to start a war, did not kill him.

The fighting style is like playing chess. You can see the opponent's character. He just wants to test it out, and does not really want to enmity. I believe the opponent can also see this - he chose the young man who is the leader.

, not the most suspicious girl, because this young man is the target of communication.

If the other party's goodwill is a disguise, no matter what he does, he will not be able to escape. You can also detect the other party's true face in advance and give the team members a chance to escape.

But if they are not pretending, everything is a misunderstanding, and the other party is not really eating people, but just talking about it, then if his actions anger the other party, he is willing to pay any price to get the other party's forgiveness - there is an old saying in the country across the sea,

A gentleman can be bullied, and he does seem to be bullying an honest person. He feels that a truly kind person will not make any excessive demands, so he dares to take such a risk...

Having achieved his goal, Yul Tianyuan suddenly stopped.

This time it was Qiye's turn to be surprised: "Aren't you going to fight?"

The game has only lasted less than two minutes, and the test is over? It’s pretty fast.

"No fight, I have indeed seen your sincerity." Having already roughly judged Qiye's character, Yul Tianyuan said simply, "You have no murderous intention, and... is that a gun? You are completely useless.

I have been showing mercy... I was really sorry just now, but you should understand, right? What would we think when we hear those words... I hope you can give us a suitable explanation."

Nanaya glanced at the gun that came with Ryoma Sakamoto, the Heroic Spirit Card.

Guns are not as easy to control as swords to the extent that they do not hurt anyone, so Qiye only used swords. It is great that Yul Tianyuan can get this.

In short, we can finally communicate. Qiye also put away the knife and signaled Aaron, who was flying above, to come down: "I also have many problems here, but I understand your concerns... So let's start from me. What do you need me to explain first?

?”

Yul Tianyuan asked without hesitation: "Does that girl eat people?"
