Curse Shirou

"...you two, come with me if you have the guts."

Yiwozuo ignored Tong Mo and said to the two male Zhu, and then he set up another battlefield to try to stay away from this annoying guy as soon as possible.

It is obviously impossible for Purgatory Kyojuro and Tomioka Yoshiyuki to leave Butterfly Ninja to the stronger Kamizuru, so Purgatory Kyojuro raised the handle of the knife and said to Tomioka Giyuu:

"I'll just go by myself, I'll leave it to you here."

What he wanted to say was preempted, Tomioka Yoshiyuki could only keep silent.

I saw the flame cloak being put up, and Yanzhu had already chased after Yiwozuo.

"Tomioka-san, I'm going to fuck."

Butterfly reluctantly made a sound to remind, just like a fluttering butterfly, pounced on the wounded ghost in front of it alone.

Tomioka Yoshiyuki followed closely behind, and the two came to the front and back of Tongmo at the same time, using the breath of water and the breath of insects together.

There were two clangs, the friction of the collision of metals - the two sun wheel knives were resisted by a pair of iron fans at this time, Tong Mo smiled at the two of them:

"Did you actually decide to keep two people to deal with me? Are you the pillars of the Demon Slayer Squad? It's really an honor~ But anyway, I only eat girls. Just happened to not eat women."

Tong Mo enthusiastically introduced the recipes of himself and his colleagues, completely ignoring the deteriorating expressions of the two pillars.

Butterfly Ren's face turned livid, not only because of his aversion to ghosts, but also because of the opponent's two weapons.

Looking at Tong Mo's metal folding fan, Butterfly Shinobi recalled a long time ago.

Her older sister, the former style butterfly Kanae, was attacked and killed by a ghost using an iron fan many years ago.

The ghost evacuated the Butterfly House before the sun rose, and when she arrived, Kanae was seriously injured and died.

If she guessed correctly, this Shangxian should be the murderer who killed her sister back then!

At the same moment, on the other side——

Following Yiwozuo to the newly opened place, Purgatory Xingshoulang pulled out the Lieyanwen Sunlun Saber, and one person and one ghost started the final dialogue before the battle.

"Are you the only one here? That's fine, I really like you more than the other person."

Yiwozuo's aura gradually rose, and his whole body clamored for a hearty duel. He excitedly invited the other party:

"You have a strong fighting spirit. I can feel that you are close to the highest level. Why don't you become a ghost too? This way you won't grow old or die!"

"Impossible, I refuse."

"Oh, by the way, you are also Zhu, right?"

"I am Yanzhu, Purgatory Xingshoulang!"

"I am Yiwozuo, Xingshoulang, let me tell you why you can't reach the highest level. Because you are human, if you are a ghost, no matter how many years you want, you can exercise as you please. It will definitely be stronger than you can imagine.” ①

Yiwozuo has existed as a Shangxian ghost for hundreds of years, and he will try his best to persuade him before killing a Zhu.

"Become a ghost, otherwise with your aptitude. It's such a pity—"

Reinforced iron bones clashed with sword blades, Yiwozuo smashed towards Purgatory Xingshoulang, and at the same time, frost bloomed under his feet, opening the destructive killing Luozhen!

At the corner of the deserted street, a short figure pulled an even shorter boy and sneaked into the narrow alley to avoid it.

Because the two adults had been away for too long, Xiaohui became a little restless, and when she was tired, she dragged him and sneaked out, wanting to see where the priest and the others had found.

Unexpectedly, there was still a distance from the center of the street, and suddenly ran into the third of the first string, Master Yiwozuo, who appeared here.

Because he saw that it was Yiwozuo, he left immediately without taking Xiaohui, and saw the human beings of the Demon Slayer Squad following behind.

Lei felt that it was not good. Based on his understanding of the top three, no matter how strong this human being is, if he faced Yiwozuo alone...

must die.

Tired made a 'shush' gesture to Xiaohui, took out a piece of Jinpingtang from the cloth bag he was carrying, and put it into the child's mouth.

Xiao Hui puffed out her cheeks with candy in her mouth, and obediently hid in the alley with him, looking out secretly.

"Even though human life is short and limited, it is its beauty and strength. Although I don't hate you, no matter what you say, I will not become a ghost."

Yanzhu's voice was powerful and reliable, his saber energy was like a dragon's martial arts, he kept trying to cut off the opponent's neck in close combat, but was blocked by Yi Wozuo's fists.

And the repair ability of the winding is extremely fast, even if both hands are cut off at the same time, they can be regenerated instantly.

Yiwoza's fist collided with the opponent's blade, making a sound of golden iron clanging. When the two of them fought close to each other, their destructive power was second only to that of Wu Mi and Tanjiro.

"Oh, it seems that Your Excellency Yiwozuo is having a good time playing, should I work harder?"

Compared with other Shangxian ghosts, Tong Mo's attack was always slow at the beginning.

After all, if he wanted to make the ice crystals in the air effective for his ice blood ghost technique, the sky restraining breathing method, the most effective way was to delay the time.

There is absolutely no ghost hunter who can display his original swordsmanship strength after inhaling his frost for a long time.

His blood ghost technique, frozen cloud and cold white princess, also opened the eyes of Kotomine Shirou who was watching the battle.

"It's really a trick to deal with. This kind of ice crystals that invade the body through breathing is indeed the nemesis of human beings."

Kotomine Shirou was amazed, but Zenyuan Shier snorted and commented disdainfully:

"As long as it is fast enough, kill the opponent in one breath, and you don't have to worry about freezing your lungs."

"Yeah, as expected of a magician killer, I really have experience."

"..."

"By the way, I always have the illusion that these ghosts are using spells. Do you have this feeling?"

"No, it's not a magic power reaction, it should be the same as your magic power, it's all other kinds of energy."

"Is there a difference in your eyes? That's it."

"Tsk, the winner is decided..."

Kotomine Shirou took a closer look, and indeed, in the beautiful phantom of frost and water waves, interspersed with the whistling of insects, the battle between Tong Mo, Tomioka Yoshiyuki and Butterfly Shinobi finally had a preliminary result.

Before the neck of the ghost is cut off, only flesh and blood will be injured——

When the sound of sharp blades cutting across the bones and muscles sounded, Yoshiyuki Tomioka's pupils shrank suddenly, and he swung the knife vigorously towards Tong Mo's neck, forcing him back.

A large amount of blood fell on the ground, and Butterfly vomited blood from his mouth, and stepped back step by step.

Because the alveoli were partially frozen, she just made a careless move and was hit by Tong Mo's iron fan. Her upper body was cut open from the left shoulder to the right abdomen, and she was almost cut in two by the opponent.

"Are you OK?"

Tomioka Yoshiyuki saw her injury with his own eyes, but he couldn't say a suitable word in panic.

"Tomioka-san, the ghost is still here, so leave me alone."

Butterfly endured a lot of blood loss, and her skin was covered with cold sweat, but she still bent her lips firmly:

"Dawn is not far away. You must not let him go this time. Promise me, Mr. Tomioka."

Tomioka Yoshiyuki no longer looked back, looked at Tong Mo intently, and only replied in a low voice:

"Ah."

Facing the second of the first string, the Chongshui two pillars fell into a hard fight, but facing the third of the first string alone on the other side, it was even more difficult for Purgatory Xingjulang.

Although the Shangxian Six Ghosts have not changed for hundreds of years, they are well-deserved the strongest ghosts, but their strength is also divided into three, six, and nine grades.

If counted by the pillars without markings, the Shangxian ghost ranked [-] can at least compete with more than three pillars at the same time, while Si Wulu can probably match two.

It's not because the pillars are not strong enough, but because the repair speed of the upper string is too fast, no matter how serious the injury is, as long as it is not beheaded, it is intact.

The ghosts can make countless mistakes, but as long as Ke Zhu is hit once, the injury he receives will affect his strength.

"It should be almost right?"

Zenyuan Shier turned his head and asked, Kotomine Shirou nodded in reply.

Even if the lover doesn't say anything, Shier can know his mind.

"Hmph, don't blame me if you hit hard later."

Hearing this, Kotomine Shirou couldn't help shaking his head, he smiled kindly:

"It doesn't matter, it's just a dead disciple."

--------------------

The author has something to say:

Note ① Paragraphs are partially quoted from the original dialogue.

If the protagonist is not in a hurry and cares about these ghosts, the title of the next chapter will probably be: "Cruel"

Because only these two words can describe how the church treats the dead.

Trivia:

The only ancestor of the Dead Apostles who belonged to the church, Mei Lian Solomon, worked in the heresy sanctioning department "Buryling Agency" outsourced by the jury, similar to a killer group that specializes in killing vampires and Dead Apostles.

Note that Shirou and Kirei usually refer to their work as exorcism or exorcism, but the work of the burial agency is called "killing".
