Chapter 1645 Setting (I am holding a meatball and chewing it)

Tengxi Mountain at night is dark and dead silent.

It was like a cold grave. There was no sound even from birds. It was pitch black without any light.

Until a shrill scream rang out, tearing the silence apart.

"Wow————!"

Duanmu Huai swung the sword in his hand, and the evil ghost that was chopped into pieces shattered and disappeared behind him, turning into a pile of dust.

"It's not that we can't play, but it feels a little bit boring."

Duanmu Huai sheathed his sword and glanced behind him boredly. He came here because he heard from Tanjiro that he had met him at Fuji Mountain. Duanmu Huai had hoped to meet someone like Upper Rank 3 or Upper Rank 6, or at least a Lower Rank, to have some fun.

The result was...all trash.

All of them.

Duanmu Huai walked in the mountains bored, casually slashing at the evil ghosts that rushed over, and he really had no interest in it. Because these ghosts were too weak, and they didn't have any special abilities. It felt like they were just slightly stronger than ordinary people. But if you think about it carefully, that Tanjiro himself was also very weak. If he really encountered an enemy like the upper-rank, he would probably have been killed long ago.

“Aaaaaaaaaaa——!”

At this moment, suddenly, a shout came from not far away, which made Duanmu Huai stunned for a moment, then he turned around and walked towards the place where the shout came from.

"Boom!"

When Duanmu Huai walked to where the sound came from, he saw a young man flying out from in front of him, then hit a tree next to him and fell to the ground.

Oh, isn’t this Tanjiro? He was beaten so badly.

However, Duanmu Huai was mentally prepared for his strength.

After taking a look at Tanjiro lying motionless on the ground, Duanmu Huai did not call him. After all, he and he met again on the Infinite Train "afterwards", which meant that he would not die here. This is the continuity of time. Since Duanmu Huai has observed Tanjiro in the future, he will not die now.

Even if it's like being hit by a truck and thrown into a tree at such a speed.

But compared to that guy...

Duanmu Huai raised his head and looked across, only to see a big fat man standing there with hands all over his body, and he even used several arms to hold his neck tightly.

Are you so afraid of death?

Looking at the ghost in front of him, Duanmu Huai was speechless.

He has seen many ghosts, but he seems to be the first one who is so afraid of death.

"Hooh?"

At this moment, the evil ghost also saw Duanmu Huai standing next to Tanjiro and chuckled.

"What? Are you here to die too?"

"………………………"

"That guy just took the opportunity to run away. Why, aren't you going to run away?"

Having said that, the evil ghost raised one hand and pointed at Duanmu Huai.

"But it doesn't matter. It's your turn next, little brat!"

"snort…………"

Duanmu Huai snorted coldly, put his sword behind his back, clenched his fists, and walked straight towards the evil ghost.

“Oh…”

Seeing Duanmu Huai coming, the evil ghost also revealed a sinister smile.

"You actually walked towards me. Why don't you run away? Are you willing to come to me and seek death?"

"How can I beat you down if I don't come closer?"

Duanmu Huai stared at the evil ghost in front of him with cold eyes.

“Haha… In that case, why not come closer?”

As he spoke, the evil ghost walked towards Duanmu Huai, and soon the two sides were getting closer and closer.

then…………………

"call---!"

The next moment, a hand from the evil ghost suddenly stretched out and hit Duanmu Huai directly in the face!

"Hahaha, is that all you can do? Brat! Can't you even let me try a move?"

The evil ghost looked at Duanmu Huai who was hit in the face by him and laughed loudly, while Duanmu Huai stood there, motionless.

"Your so-called testing move is to gently caress your opponent without leaving even a wound?"

"what?"

Upon hearing this, the evil ghost looked towards Duanmu Huai, only to see that under its fist, there was not even a trace of bruise on Duanmu Huai's face, and it looked completely intact.

"Okay, then I'll accept your boring provocation and play with you for a few more times!"

As soon as he finished speaking, dozens of arms suddenly stretched out from the evil ghost, clenched into fists, and turned into a torrential rain to blast towards Duanmu Huai!
At the same time, Duanmu Huai clenched his fists and rushed forward!

"OOLA OOLA OOLA OOLA!!!"

"You are just a human, you want to compete with me in speed? It's useless, useless, useless, useless!!"

"Ugh..."

Tanjiro also woke up at this moment. When he opened his eyes and looked forward, he was shocked to see that in front of him, the terrible demon was splitting out countless fists from its body and punching forward. On the opposite side of the demon, a petite white-haired girl was waving her fists to fight against it!

"Ola Ola Ola Ola Ola!"

"It's useless, useless, useless, useless, useless!"

The wind from the fists of both parties blew towards him like a whistling gale, causing Tanjiro to narrow his eyes involuntarily and put out his hands to block his eyes. He could see the evil ghost's fists being smashed, but soon more fists were reborn.

No, if this continues, the situation will only get worse!
Thinking of this, Tanjiro also clenched the knife in his hand and tried to step forward to help, and at this moment...

“Ola————!”

With a roar, the next moment, the figure in front of Tanjiro suddenly disappeared. At the same time, the hundreds of fists that split from the demon suddenly exploded and spurted out a large amount of blood mist. The demon's head, which was originally tightly protected, flew high, and its fat body fell backwards.

It was only then that Tanjiro saw that the girl had appeared behind the demon and was sheathing her sword. The demon's head was spinning in the sky, and he was staring with eyes wide open, looking unbelievable. "How is this possible! How could I... How could I...!"

Before he could finish his words, the evil ghost's head turned into ashes and disappeared into the air.

"Well, it's a gain at least."

Duanmu Huai sheathed his sword and stretched. Although he was not as good as the Upper Rank Three, he was still quite interesting.

"Um...thank you for your help!"

At this time, Tanjiro also came over and bowed respectfully to Duanmu Huai.

"Are you also a candidate?"

"I……………"

"ah-----!"

Just as Duanmu Huai was about to answer Tanjiro's words, suddenly, a faint scream came from a distance. Hearing the scream, Duanmu Huai's expression changed slightly, and then his figure flashed. Before Tanjiro could react, Duanmu Huai disappeared into the forest without a trace.

"Amazing……………"

Staring blankly at the empty space in front of him, Tanjiro couldn't help but sigh, and then he tightened the sword in his hand.

"Okay, I will also work hard and must pass this trial and join the Demon Slayer Corps!"

When that time comes, I will thank this girl.

At the same time, in the open space at the edge of the forest, Ruby and others looked at the strange-looking man standing in front of them in horror.

The three of them were also startled when it suddenly turned dark. However, when they came to their senses, they found that the mountain road they were on seemed to have changed. There were street lights on both sides of the mountain road just now, but now there is nothing there. Not only that, just when they wanted to find Duanmu Huai, they were stopped by this strange-looking man who suddenly jumped out.

Seeing the man who suddenly appeared, the three of them screamed immediately, and the evil ghost was also frightened when he saw the three people's made-up faces.

"You, who are you? What do you want to do?"

"You are human......?"

Hearing MEM's question, the evil ghost came back to his senses. He stared at the three people in front of him fiercely and opened his mouth.

"What a weird outfit. Never mind. As long as I can eat it, it doesn't matter..."

"What do you want to do?"

Looking at the seemingly crazy man in front of them, Fengbin and Hua also raised their cell phones.

"If you come any closer, I'll call the police—Ah!"

However, before Fengbin and Hua finished speaking, a gust of wind suddenly blew over her head, frightening her so much that she sat down on the ground, and the phone in her hand disappeared. When everyone turned around, they saw the evil ghost lying on the tree trunk like a spider, reaching out to grab Fengbin and Hua's phone, staring at it curiously.

"What is this? Why does it glow at night?"

As he spoke, the evil ghost opened his mouth and bit Fengbin and Hua's cell phone into pieces with a "click", then chewed it and spat it to the side with a "pfft".

"It's not delicious. What the hell is this?"

The evil ghost threw aside the remaining wreckage of the cell phone and looked at the three people again.

"Forget it, I'll just eat you first!"

"careful!"

Perhaps it was a sudden inspiration, at this moment Ruby suddenly rushed over and pushed Fengbin and Hua away, but she was grabbed by the man, who then stared at Ruby with his bloody mouth.

"Let's start with you——!"

“Ruby!!”

Seeing this scene, MEM, Fengbin and Hua all screamed, while Ruby stared blankly at the man's cracked mouth.

"elder sister-----!"

"Don't shout so loudly, I can hear you."

Before Ruby finished speaking, Duanmu Huai's voice came from beside her, and then a blood-red sword flashed like thunder, and the next moment the man's head flew high up and then fell to the ground. Duanmu Huai also came to Ruby's side at this time and supported her.

"Really? Why are you here?"

"Little Love!"

"Miss Little Love!"

Seeing Duanmu Huai appear, MEM, Fengbin and Hua also breathed a sigh of relief, and hurried over to look at Ruby.

"Ruby, are you okay?"

"I, I'm fine..."

In response to the two people's questions, Ruby shook her head, but soon she looked at the scene in front of her with a pale face.

"But sister, you...you killed someone?"

"Hey?"

Hearing this, the two people's expressions changed, and they looked in the direction Ruby was looking, only to see the headless body of the man lying in front of them!
"Alas-----!"

"Why are you yelling? He's not a human being. Watch out."

Duanmu Huai rolled his eyes and spoke helplessly. Hearing Duanmu Huai's words, the three of them looked again, and this time they saw that the man's body was gradually decomposing and turning into dust, and disappeared after a while.

"Sister, sister, what is going on? What happened here? What are you doing?"

At this moment, Ruby couldn't help it, she grabbed Duanmu Huai and asked. Although MEM, Fengbin and Hua didn't speak, the way they looked at Duanmu Huai clearly showed the same question.

"……………………Why don't you just treat it as a nightmare and pretend nothing happened when you wake up?"

"………………………"

"Ok."

Looking at the expressions of the three people, Duanmu Huai sighed silently.

"Actually... I'm a magical girl now."

Then, looking at the three people, Duanmu Huai spoke.
