You didn't expect this, did you? I've time-traveled again!

"Wow!!!!!"

Zenitsu Gasai shouted loudly while his legs moved backward with surprising agility.

"Zenitsu! What's wrong?" Suoh Takeshi ran towards him.

Zenitsu Agatsuma, upon seeing Suoh Takeo, immediately shouted, "Run! Suoh-senpai! There's a giant spider here! No, it's a demon!"

Evil spirit?

Suoh Takeshi looked ahead and, with his excellent eyesight, he did indeed spot a large, dark spider, its rear end wrapped in silk, hanging upside down from a tree.

This guy... is he the nameless brat who was instantly defeated by Zenitsu Agatsuma?

"Zenitsu, you're a swordsman in the Demon Slayer Corps, right? As a demon slayer, why are you afraid of demons?!"

Suoh Takeshi tried to encourage him, urging him to quickly use the Thunder Breathing Technique to destroy the spider imp in front of him in one move, so that Suoh Takeshi could successfully analyze and imitate his swordsmanship.

"No, no, no, no, no!!!"

Upon hearing this, Zenitsu Gasai quickly denied himself, saying, "I can't do it! I can't do it on my own!"

However, although he denied it verbally, he stopped running and turned to look at the giant spider in front of him.

As Suoh Takeshi approached, he also saw its true form clearly in the moonlight.

"Ugh...it's really ugly! It's disgusting! And what's this stench? It stinks!" Suoh Takeshi criticized its appearance without reservation, and also complained about the bad air quality.

This spider demon is so ugly it could scare a child to tears.

It's simply a giant spider's body combined with a human head, just like the low-budget chimera movies I watched in my previous life.

Suoh Takeshi suddenly recalled a soul-searching question posed by his predecessor:

If you are unfortunately lost on a desert island, you can choose a mermaid to keep you company.

So, which mermaid did you choose—one with a fish's upper body or a fish's lower body?

By the way, mermaids and Spider-Man are not the same thing!

At least mermaids have waists!

This spider brother only has one head, a dry head stuck on the spider's body!

It's incredibly ugly!

"Zenitsu, kill him right now!"

Suoh Takeru felt nauseous and couldn't accept it either physically or mentally, so he ordered Agatsuma Zenitsu to kill him quickly.

Zenitsu Gasai wiped away his tears, sobbing, "I can't do it, Suoh-senpai!"

This guy...

Zenitsu Agatsuma is too weak-willed right now; he hasn't transformed yet and is completely useless.

"Hehehe~ Run all you want, anyway, in half an hour you'll be lying on the ground, surrendering to me like those spiders!"

Spider Brother grinned wickedly and pulled out a pocket watch, pointing at the hands with his spider legs, constantly increasing the pressure on Zenitsu.

"Do you understand? After this long needle spins once, you'll turn into a spider!"

"..."

Zenitsu Gasai trembled with fear and could not speak.

"When the long needle reaches this point, your hands and feet will become numb and your whole body will ache; when it reaches this point, you will feel dizzy and nauseous; when it reaches this point again, you will experience unbearable pain, your body will gradually shrink, and you will lose consciousness; when you wake up, you will find yourself... hehehehehehehehahahaha!"

The spider brother didn't say the rest, but his increasingly twisted laughter told Zenitsu:

Yes, that's exactly what you think!

Zenitsu Agatsuma's mentality exploded to the point of near collapse. He screamed and grabbed Suoh Takeshi's clothes, pleading, "Suoh-senpai, please save me! I don't want to become one of those disgusting spiders!"

At that moment, Spider Brother also noticed Suoh Takeshi next to Zenitsu Agatsuma.

"who is it?"

His attire was strange; although he carried a long sword at his waist, he wasn't wearing the Demon Slayer Corps uniform.

'Could he be a demon hunter?'

Spider Brother was confused for a moment, but that didn't stop him from setting a trap for the other person who suddenly appeared. He secretly directed the spiders he controlled to try to inject poison into Suoh Takeshi using the same trick as before.

This was his strategy for dealing with enemies, and also his means of survival.

But before he could act, he heard Suoh Takeru say, "I'm sorry, Zenitsu. I'm not a swordsman of the Demon Slayer Corps, nor do I know breathing techniques. This sword is not a Nichirin Blade either; it can't kill demons."

"What?! Suoh-senpai really isn't a Demon Slayer?! Could it be that Suoh-senpai is just an ordinary person?! I actually brought an ordinary person to the presence of a demon?!"

Zenitsu Agatsuma felt even more desperate after hearing Suoh Takeshi's words, and kept screaming in disbelief.

Is this Zenitsu Agatsuma's style? Always shouting and yelling in a panic?

However, Spider Brother laughed instead, thinking there might be some unexpected changes, but it turned out that the newcomer was just a dessert after his meal.

"Hehehe, don't be afraid. Once the toxins have spread throughout your body and you become spiders, you will lose your personalities and won't need to think anymore!" The spider brother continued to exert pressure, further breaking down Zenitsu's mental defenses.

"Stop talking! I just don't want to become like that! You're obviously someone nobody likes, someone who's been ostracized!"

Don't let Zenitsu's gentle demeanor fool you; his sharp tongue really annoys Spider-Man.

"No!!!" Zenitsu Agatsuma cried out in despair, clutching his hair.

But he froze the next second.

He lost a lot of hair!

"My hair is falling out!!!"

Zenitsu Gasai screamed and then fainted.

Chapter 017 The God of Sleep's One-Sword 999

Zenitsu Agatsuma was overwhelmed by the shock and fainted.

Hehehe, hahahahaha~

Spider Brother laughed even more wildly, his mocking expression undisguised. "Is this guy really a demon hunter? He's such a loser!"

It's right, Zenitsu Agatsuma's behavior was indeed appalling.

If Tanjiro Kamado and Inosuke Hashibira were there, they probably would have punched him long ago, instead of making him pass out.

Spider Brother licked his lips, looking at Suoh Takeshi with malice, as if he were looking at a delicious feast, and he couldn't wait to devour it!

"Next up is you, hehehe~"

He wasn't worried at all about what trouble Suoh Takeru could cause. Without the Nichirin Blade, he couldn't kill him, so there was nothing to fear.

"You, with your keen eye, must have noticed the strangeness on that kid, right? That's right, his body is covered in toxins, with bluish marks all over it—that's a sign he's about to turn into a spider." He deliberately pointed out the strangeness on Zenitsu Agatsuma, trying to disturb Suoh Takeshi's composure.

Unfortunately, Suoh Takeshi, who knew the outcome, remained completely calm and watched it with composure.

Spider Brother was very annoyed by Suoh Takeshi's confident demeanor, so he threatened, "Hey, aren't you going to run? You'll end up just like that kid who's already passed out!"

"Oh, yes."

Suoh Takeru waved his hand dismissively, "Then let's defeat Zenitsu first."

"What are you talking about? That kid is already unconscious..."

He couldn't say anything more, because he saw Zenitsu, who had been unconscious, get up from the ground.

With his eyes tightly closed, he took a deep lunge, gripped his sword with both hands, and was poised to strike, exhaling a hot and intense breath!

"This is?!"

Spider-Brother looked at Zenitsu Agatsuma with surprise and suspicion.

Logically, the poison should have already eroded his nerves, rendering Zenitsu unable to stand up again.

"Why?! How can I still stand up?!"

He cried out in alarm, then frantically summoned his little spiders to attack, while simultaneously spraying venomous slime from his mouth, intending to kill Zenitsu Agatsuma on the spot.

He changed his mind about turning Zenitsu Agatsuma into a spider demon.

"Wow, this is a godsend for people with trypophobia!"

Seeing the dense swarm of small spiders approaching, Suoh Takeshi quickly dodged to the side and jumped away.

Seeing this, Spider Brother laughed and said, "Are you just going to run away like that and not care about him anymore?"

He had the upper hand verbally, but in reality, it was hard to say.

"Ah, Zenitsu will be fine, no need to worry."

Suoh Takeshi jumped onto the tree. "He doesn't need me to worry. On the contrary, you're in trouble!"

"Huh? I'm in trouble?! Don't joke around!"

Spider Brother looked at Zenitsu Agatsuma, who was surrounded and enveloped by the little spiders, and had an expression that said the situation was already settled.

However, he was soon proven wrong.

Dense golden lightning erupted within the circle of spiders, and with a deafening roar, Zenitsu Agatsuma blasted away all the attacking spiders, revealing his form enveloped in lightning.

Zenitsu Agatsuma was enveloped in lightning, which perfectly complemented his yellow suit!

Like a thunder god favored by heaven!

He kept his body extremely low, taking a wide lunge, his eyes still tightly closed, his hands gripping the knife, ready to strike.

But this time, it's different!

"Breathing of Thunder, First Form, Thunderclap Flash, Six-Strike Combo".

His tone was calm and understated.

The next second, he disappeared, vanishing from Suoh Takeshi's sight!

fast!

Extremely fast!
