[Lord Demon Slayer: Hiiragi of Kuhara]

==============================

The moonlight was bleak, and there were no people around beside the abandoned tram tracks, not even the sound of insects.

Chisaya Asai felt that she was going crazy. Ever since she woke up on the tram, in just a few short 10 minutes, the things that had been shaped by more than ten years of life had been completely overturned.

If only this were all a dream, she couldn't help thinking.

But the scalp-numbing weight behind him showed that this was not a dream, the thing seemed to be still there.

She didn't dare to look back, she could only stand there trembling.

Is Qin Du also entangled by this thing?Qin Du was also brought here after falling asleep on the tram?Am I dying?Qindu...

"How nice it would be if tomorrow was also a sunny day."

The bright smile of my best friend in my memory seems to be still in front of my eyes.Asai Chisaya was stunned for a moment, and when she came back to her senses, she saw the ghost in kimono walking towards her with a malicious smile like teasing a bug.

The chaotic brain was gradually filled with another emotion.

why?

Why should Qin and I have to suffer from this kind of thing?

Why should something like this exist?

Qian Shaye has always been a big-hearted person, and the first thing she feels in this desperate situation is not fear.Rather——ah, since you can't escape, then at worst, you have to fight with it, such a feeling.

The girl gritted her teeth and was about to explode, but suddenly saw the ghost frowning and turning its head to one side: "Who?"

Is anyone here?

A little hope rose in Qian Shaye's heart, and he quickly turned his head to look at the past.Through the moonlight, she indeed saw a figure appearing on the street in the distance at some unknown time.

Although the appearance is not clear when the light is turned away, it can be vaguely judged to be a boy.

And Ling Yuzi in front of her also temporarily put aside her cannibalistic thoughts, and fixed her eyes on that figure.

I don't know what it is, although it's not a ghost, it's not a swordsman from the Demon Slayer Squad - he doesn't even have a sword.So after being on guard for a while, Ling Yuzi regained his composure.

As long as she doesn't have the Sun Wheel Knife, she is an extraordinarily bloody underdog who was awarded by that adult. As long as she doesn't match up with those ridiculously strong pillars, she will never be defeated.Just as she was thinking this, and wanted to raise a malicious smile again——

Blood ghost technique - calling eyes.

One eye snapped open from the man's forehead, with a scarlet gleam.The moment the eyes meet, it seems that the line connecting with Changshi is cut off.

There was no hatred in that eye, no hostility, no emotions that she had seen countless times in human eyes, just a pure and cruel... sense of abnormality.

Incomprehensible.

Can't understand, can't judge, what is this...

"What the hell are you!?"

The surging restlessness made her cry out, and at the same time, the pale white figure formed by several blood ghost spells with both hands rushed forward.But before reaching the person, the figure suddenly disappeared.

No way.

Ling Yuzi's eyes widened, and he looked at his hands in disbelief.

Her vampire technique is suddenly useless?

No.

After realizing this, a thought of retreating emerged in my heart.

Even if you won't be beheaded, it's not good to be an enemy of such an unknown thing, and it's best to leave as soon as possible.

Thinking of this, she no longer hesitated, turned around and fled.

Blood ghost art - suppressing evil spirits.

"...!"

Ling Yuzi stopped, and when she fled to a certain critical point, she found that she couldn't move forward suddenly, as if she had reached the end of the space.

what happened?Is this the ability of that guy?

"Tell me the information about Onimai Tsuji Wumi." The figure who had already stood behind her at some time said so.

"What are you talking about? How could I possibly tell..."

"Don't care about his blood, since I saw you, you no longer exist to him."

When Ling Yuzi heard the words, his face became more frightened, as if he had seen something extremely frightening.

"How, how is it possible..."

"answer my question."

"I have no idea!"

It seemed that the time had come, and the blood ghost technique was finally condensed in her hands again, but before she could take any specific actions, she saw the figure approaching suddenly, her sight could only catch the haori flying in the air, and the above Dense spells.

Without even having time to think, the world turned upside down.

what happened?

When the beheaded ghost under the moonlight dissipated, the remaining consciousness was only dazed.

Although I already guessed such a result, but even Kizuki Wailing hadn't been able to say anything.

Kuhara Hiiragi frowned and took off the palm cover on his hand. Although it would not hurt him, he would still inevitably feel pain when his hand was touched by the orangutan Hisaite.

After connecting the power of Xiangshu with the blood ghost technique, he has already used the "blood ghost technique - smelling evil sounds" to find the ghosts around him, and chased them from the countryside to the city, but whether it is an ordinary ogre ghost or the ghost moon just now , is always tight-lipped about Oni Wu Tsuji's affairs.

Even if they could use Xiangshu's eyes to temporarily block the connection between the ghost and the ghost king, they would instinctively never reveal the news.

In the eyes of his subordinates, is Guiwu Tsuji Wumi more terrifying than death?Jiuyuan Hiiragi couldn't help thinking, never thought that he was also scary in the eyes of ghosts.

Forget it, let's leave here quickly and look for clues elsewhere.

He turned around, and out of the corner of his eye, he saw a girl with a terrified face who almost fell into the mouth of a ghost.

Is it me next?Asai Chisaya trembled, wanting to cry, but then heard the ghost in front of her say: "Go along the road illuminated by street lights, and you can find the security team..."

"Oh!"

A loud noise interrupted his words, and the dust was suddenly lifted up, forcing Chisaya Asai to close her eyes.

"You hide aside." A cold voice.

The smoke and dust dissipated, and there were deep sword marks on the ground.The crimson feathers fluttered, the guy with the three eyes was no longer in sight, and only the man named Yoshiyuki Tomioka, who claimed to be a member of the Demon Slayer, was left.

Things were developing so fast that Qian Shaye's mind had gone blank.

That guy is the real murderer of Sumino Kototo.Giyuu thought so, and once again pointed the sun wheel knife at the ghost that retreated to the distance to avoid his attack.

"Water Breathing-Seven Shapes-Shizuku Ripple."

The sharp knife light flashed, pointing directly at the ghost's throat, but it was flashed sideways.

"You misunderstood, the ogre lurking here is not me."

Hearing this, Yiyong didn't even change his expression. He had heard this kind of words countless times, whether it was 'I will never eat people again' or something else, ghosts should never be believed.

He continued to attack, but for some reason, this ghost in a strange haori was just defending blindly, and he didn't look half embarrassed.

Is this strength Twelve Ghost Moons?Yi Yong couldn't help but frowned slightly.

Looking at the waves in the sky, the ghost's tone was a little appreciative, "If Sato didn't become a pillar of water, I'm afraid you became a pillar."

What is he saying?

Tomioka Yoshiyuki was stunned for a moment, he suddenly felt that the ghost's voice had a strange sense of familiarity.

No, I can't think about it any longer.

"Courageous."

All in one!Water Breathing - One Shape - Slashing on the water surface.

"I can't eat people, so can I stop for a while?"

The azure blue solar blade had already touched the ghost's neck, but it couldn't move any further, which seemed to indicate the swordsman's confusion and hesitation.

In this way, there was a stalemate for a while.

"You've become a ghost."

Giyuu didn't take the knife back.

Once turned into a ghost, even close relatives must be beheaded. This is an iron rule, and of course the former fellow disciples are no exception.It's just that the ghost in front of him seemed to be conscious and had no intention of attacking people at all, which made him hesitate to do it right away.

"I'm a ghost, but it's not necessarily true. I don't need to eat people to preserve my sanity. I have been staying in Sawu Mountain for the past three years. Master Lintaki and the Lord Master know about it."

The swordsman didn't respond, and there was no intention to waver in his quiet and firm eyes.

Jiuyuan Hiiragi sighed, and he also knew that it was difficult to explain this kind of thing clearly: "If you want to do it, do it, I won't hide."

He won't die from being cut in the neck by the sun wheel knife, at most it's just a pain.

"Mr. Tomioka!"

At this time, a girl's panting voice suddenly came from the other side, and Chisaya Asai ran all the way over, "You, you may have misunderstood something, he should not be the ghost you are looking for!"

"...Don't believe what ghosts say."

"But he killed the ghost who wanted to eat me just now." Although he didn't know what happened, Qian Shaye reacted because he didn't know much about ghosts, so he had the courage to subconsciously think that he should save his life for this one. The ghost said a few words, and then said incoherently, "He also asked me to go to the security team, so that's, that, I think it's best not to kill him rashly..."

Yiyong just frowned slightly.

And Jiuyuan Hiiragi was stunned for a moment, he didn't expect this girl who was trembling because she was afraid of him just now would say that.

Her words may not have much persuasiveness in the ears of the ghost killers, but no matter what...

"Thank you."

Dawn came quietly.

In Giyuu's surprised eyes, Kuhara Hiiragi who was standing in the sun put back his ghostly form, the face was exactly the same as three years ago.

"Can I explain now?"

……

"Phase pivot?"

"Well, Ghost Dance Tsuji Mumi intends to obtain this power to obtain immortality."

Speaking of this, Jiuyuan Hiiragi couldn't help but feel a little ironic.

The power that the person who longed for eternal life did not get, instead made him, the person who wanted to die in the first place, survive.

"I will find a way to turn back into a human. At that time, as long as other people get the recognition of the hilt and the power of Taiwu, I can completely return to the state of an ordinary person." Kuhara Hiiragi looked at Giyuu who looked a little dazed , "Is it still hard to accept?"

"...The letter crow has been sent to confirm the information, it depends on what the lord says."

Even so, he did not show any intention to kill Kuhara Hiiragi again.

Asai Chisaya has been sent to the police force to wait for her family to find her. The two walked on the road and chatted for a while. From Giyuu's words, Kuhara Hiiragi learned that her name was written on the list of dead soldiers three years ago. .

Sato concealed everything after he turned into a ghost, only saying that he fought the ghost to the end, and there was no bones left.

And the lord also acquiesced to such a statement.

The letter crow came back very quickly. It seemed that the lord had already prepared for such a thing. He asked Giyuu to believe Kuhara Hiiragi's words and not to kill him. If there is any objection, he can ask him face to face.

Giyuu rubbed his eyes.

"It's really you."

Have you believed it until now?Kuhara Hiiragi smiled bitterly in his heart.

"So Sato knows you're still alive?" Yoshihiro asked.

"...No, he doesn't know."

Because Kimai Tsuji could not know that he was still alive after his neck was cut off, otherwise the ghost king might send his men to chase Sagiri Mountain, ruining the plan, so the only person who knew that he was still alive in those three years was Master Rinaki Yozai and the lord.

When Kuhara Hiiragi thought of this incident, he felt extremely complicated. He lowered his head and thought for a while, then looked at Yiyong, "Can you tell him for me?"

"what?"

"It's just to tell him that I'm still alive." He explained, "I don't have a letter, and I can't find him for the time being."

Yi Yong didn't think too much, and nodded: "I understand, I will tell him when I meet him."

"Thank you."

Kuhara Hiiragi secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

With this vaccination, it shouldn't be too embarrassing to see you again.

Just a few days later, Yoshiyuki who met Satoshi mentioned this matter.

"Sakura, do you want to go on a mission?"

"Ah, Yoshiyuki, you just got back from the mission? Are you injured?"

"No." Tomioka Yoshiyuki shook his head, and then he remembered something.

"One more thing, I saw Hiiragi."

"What did you say?"

Sabito showed a look that didn't seem to understand.

"I said Hiiragi, he didn't die three years ago, if you don't believe me, you can ask the lord."

"..."

How is this possible?

By the way, Yiyong didn't know that that person was his own hand... But if this was a joke, it would be too much, it is impossible for Yiyong to do such a thing.

Sato thought for a while, and finally said with a serious expression: "I understand."

"Ah."

Yi Yong's mind is so simple, maybe he was deceived by some evil ghost who tried to escape with blood ghost technique.

"Don't worry, I will kill him when I meet him."

After all, the water column who was in a hurry to get out of the mission disappeared in place.

"...?"

The author has something to say:

The blood ghost techniques used by Jiuyuan Hiiragi are basically auxiliary types, all of which come from the abilities of the phase pivot in the Taiwu picture scroll, with (big) changes.

Eye-calling: Use Xiangshu's eyes to stare at the enemy, and temporarily block the enemy's vampirism.

Hearing evil voices: You can find ghosts within a certain range, except those hidden by blood ghosts like Yushiro.

Suppression of evil spirits: (for a certain period of time) prevents the enemy from leaving its attack range.
