Chapter 190: The Ghost Begging for Mercy and the Person Who Protects It

What a strange evil ghost! Are there any ghosts with such an attractive appearance?

Gan Ye looked at the white ghost in front of him with a cold expression, and he did feel a little emotional.

I have to say, but in terms of appearance, the ghost in front of him with a look of fear on his face is much more pleasing to the eye than those ugly creatures that he had killed with his sword before.

The special attack on the Yan people has long white hair, skin that is so pale that it has a morbid beauty, and a towering chest that reveals half of the northern hemisphere. Apart from her identity as a ghost, she is indeed a very beautiful young lady.

What a pity! If you weren’t an evil ghost, it might be nice to take it home and raise it.

Gan Ye had some obscene thoughts in his heart, but his pair of black eyes were full of clarity. He stood in front of the evil ghost who seemed to have no intention of resisting, and slowly raised the Sun Blade in his hand.

“Ah—no, no… please, don’t kill me!” The flashing sharp cold light made the spider demon, who already thought he had encountered the Demon Slayer Corps, even more frightened. He dragged his loose white kimono and trembled as he retreated. “Please, I have never eaten humans, please let me go!”

Never eaten a human? Is that true...

The knife in Ganye's hand paused slightly, and his black eyes reflected the spider ghost with tears of fear in the corners of his eyes and trembling.

The next second, the Sun Blade fell again.

"Wait! Save someone under the knife!"

call--

The sharp blade stopped at the neck.

The cold and sharp breath traveled a millimeter's distance and directly penetrated into the man's brain, instantly drenching him in cold sweat.

Just as Gan Ye was about to kill the spider ghost in front of him with a knife, the man who had broken free due to the spider silk losing its power suddenly rushed up and stood in front of the spider ghost.

"Ah..." Feeling the coldness on his neck, the man uttered a cry of pain, but still took a deep breath, then looked at Qianye and said righteously, "No matter what, this is too much. She obviously has no intention of harming anyone."

ha?

Gan Ye tilted his head in confusion and looked at the man standing in front of the spider ghost with a strange expression.

This guy, is there something wrong with his brain?

"You... don't know what she is, right?" Gan Ye asked.

"No, I know, of course I know!" the man said, "I read in an ancient book before that she should be a creature called a 'ghost', a monster that eats people."

Although it was just a record like a monster biography, the man still wrote it down because the description was too realistic.

I didn't expect that I could actually meet him.

"Then you should also know what the other party wants to do by kidnapping you, Stockholm syndrome?" Gan Ye said in a cold tone, and the Nichirin sword in his hand made a slight sound.

"Gu... But, not everything recorded in the story is necessarily true. At least during the few days I was tied up, she didn't hurt me. She even prepared food and water for me." The man felt the sharpness on his neck, swallowed, and continued.

"Huh?" Ganye raised his eyebrows and made a strange sound.

The man in front of him looked straight at him with clear eyes, and it looked like he didn't want to lie.

Ganye glanced around and saw some food packaging bags and empty bottles that looked like they were left recently. If what he said was true, then...

"I'm telling the truth. She really didn't hurt me." Seeing that Ganye's cold eyes showed signs of melting, the man hurriedly continued to explain, "From the beginning, she just didn't want me to expose her whereabouts, so she trapped me here. She really didn't mean to eat me."

Although sometimes, the Spider Ghost looked at the man with a very hungry look, but he always endured it, and even threw him into another room and no longer looked at him.

Even food and water are delivered through spider silk.

Even though he was kidnapped by the other party, he didn't want to watch this ghost who didn't want to eat people being killed just because of this.

"..."

Feeling the surprised gaze behind him, the man turned around and looked into the Spider Ghost's azure eyes that were full of disbelief and sparkling with tears, and smiled gently.

Don't worry, I will protect you - that's probably what it means.

"Emmmmmm, I always feel like I'm becoming the villain." Kanye complained, then slowly moved the Nichirin Sword away from the man's neck.

Seeing this scene, the man breathed a sigh of relief.

However, the next second, Gan Ye suddenly reached out, grabbed the man's collar and threw him aside.

"Ah! It hurts..." The man who was pulled down by a huge force cried out in pain and the back of his head hit the floor.

As for Gan Ye, after pulling the man away, he stepped forward on the floor, which scared the Spider Ghost so much that it trembled again and looked up at him nervously.

At this moment, Gan Ye's eyes no longer had the previous coldness, but he still didn't look like he was going to let her go.

He took out his cell phone and fiddled with it for a few seconds, then just froze in place.

The man who got up from the ground with his head covered saw the spider ghost with fear in his eyes. He opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but when he saw Gan Ye standing frozen in place as if thinking, he was silent for a moment.

Looking at Kan'ye's overly young appearance, he was also wondering about Kan'ye's identity.

Although he looks like a high school student, the strength he used to throw him away just now doesn't seem to be the strength a normal person should have.

It won’t be some inhuman monster like the spider ghost... It hurts!

"Don't think too much, I'm a real human being." Kanye realized that the man was suspicious of him behind his back, so he turned around and hit the man's head with the back of the knife.

Although he was older than him, Gan Ye was polite without thinking.

However, after he no longer focused his eyes on the spider ghost, the spider ghost, which was trembling with fear, relaxed.

"Um, please ask..." The man didn't care about these, but wanted to ask Qianye carefully.

"Don't worry, I'm still waiting for the judgment." Gan Ye said, his ears moved slightly, and the corners of his mouth curled up, "Here it comes."

Deng, Deng, Deng...

From outside the room, another cautious sound of footsteps was heard.

The voice was very light and sounded like that of a girl. As the voice got closer, a cute little head poked out from outside the door.

"Um...Izumi-san, what's the matter?"

It is the seeds of the four grains.

After being informed of the news, Ganye walked into the abandoned house with some fear.

Thin blood! What a nice smell!

As mentioned before, Jianzi has a very rare blood constitution. As soon as ordinary evil spirits smell her scent, they will lose their minds and pounce on her to attack.

And now, Jianzi poked his head out from behind the door, less than five steps away from the spider ghost who was kneeling on the ground and shivering.

The smell of thin blood was sniffed into the nose, and the irresistible aroma made the spider ghost's eyes instantly become hungry.

His whole body was shaking, veins popped out from his forehead, and his face became extremely hideous.

The next second, the Spider Ghost, which had been paralyzed by fear, instantly jumped up from the ground. As the man stretched out his hand to stop it, he pounced on Jianzi who had not yet reacted.

At the same moment, Gan Ye turned around and swung his sword.

puff-

Blood splattered.

Chapter 191: We still have to kill Wuzan

The man's hand froze.

Blood dripped onto the rotten tatami, and Jianzi's eyes were full of astonishment.

Gan Ye pulled out the Sun Blade that had been chopped off the wall. The blade was as smooth as new, without a trace of blood on it.

His pair of black eyes softened completely as he looked at the spider ghost that showed its man-eating fangs and was about to bite his fair arm.

The huge bite force almost broke the slender wrist, and blood spurted out, staining the white kimono red.

Tears flowed from his eyes and streamed down his hideous face that had become hungry due to the thin blood.

"I... don't want to eat people anymore..."

"I remember it now. I remember it all... I did a lot of unforgivable things in the past."

"Dad, mom, brother... everyone, I ate them all..."

"sorry Sorry sorry……"

The body that had originally jumped up suddenly collapsed again.

The spider ghost recalled the memories of being a human, used the pain to offset its appetite for thin blood, and cried and confessed helplessly.

She was once controlled by the instinct and consciousness of a ghost and ate all her family and friends. But now that she remembers it, in addition to endless remorse, she cries out that she does not want to continue living as a ghost.

After all, few people would want to survive by eating their own kind. Ghosts, after all, are just sad creatures that were transformed from humans.

…………

……

"Thank you for your hard work. Here, it's freshly baked."

"Ah, thanks."

On the park bench, Kan'ya handed the steaming hot Taiyaki in his hand to Miko, while he leaned back in his chair, fiddling with his cell phone.

As a result, the Taiyaki was so delicious that I took a small bite.

The soft and glutinous red bean filling spread in the mouth, bringing a hint of sweetness, and finally made Jianzi, who had been dealing with terrifying evil spirits all day, smile.

He turned his head and looked at Gan Ye, who was sitting one body distance away from him. Staring at the other's profile, which was young but had a special sense of maturity, he felt his heartbeat seemed to speed up.

However, after seeing that expression that remained solemn and thoughtful from beginning to end, my heart, which had been inadvertently agitated, gradually calmed down.

"Well, is it okay to just let the ghost and the gentleman go like that?" Jianzi asked hesitantly.

In the end, Gan Ye still failed to kill the spider ghost.

After witnessing the helpless cry of the demon who hated her own identity, even Kanye couldn't kill her without paying any attention.

Then, he just let the two of them go.

As for the man who was tied up at the beginning by the spider ghost because he was afraid that his identity would be exposed and attract the Demon Slayer Corps, although he was rescued by Kanye, he didn't seem to be ready to leave.

"Well, my parents are out drinking and partying all day long and don't care about me, so it's nice to have a companion, right?" The man said this to the two of them, scratching his head.

When night falls, he will take the Spider Ghost back to his home and hide it well so that no one can find it.

Emmmmmm, I feel like I can write a light novel.

"It doesn't matter. I don't think a ghost that can endure even Jianzi will eat people so easily." Gan Ye stared at the screen of his mobile phone without raising his head and said, "Alas, if other ghosts are like this, I don't have to run around like this."

After leaving the abandoned mansion, Kan'ya dragged Jianzi to several places.

Several evil ghosts were also discovered, but there was no other one like the spider ghost.

"And originally, defeating these evil spirits is a natural thing to do. At least now, we have a clue to our ultimate goal, right?" Gan Ye raised his head and pointed the screen of the mobile phone in his hand towards Jianzi.

On it is information about shrines around Tokyo.

This was learned from the spider ghost.

These ghosts were not transformed from modern humans by the ancestor of ghosts, but came from the past hundreds of years ago.

Whether it was her or those evil spirits killed by Gan Ye, they were all evil spirits that were rampant in this country a hundred years ago and were killed by the Demon Slayer Corps.

It is more appropriate to use this concept to describe the undead who have gained physical bodies.

It is also because of this that the spider ghost can control its appetite and will not be completely dominated by the evil ghost's tyranny.

"I remember that I was killed by a very gentle boy, in a way that didn't hurt at all... It's probably because of this that I can remember the past as a human being."

He was redeemed before being killed in the past, so he is different from other evil spirits.

But it is precisely because of this that the culprit seems unforgivable. Turning good people into evil spirits and trampling on human nature at will is Kanye's ultimate goal.

"A shrine?" Kanye muttered to himself.

According to the Spider Ghost's recollection, when she was suddenly resurrected in modern times, she saw a shrine in the haze.

It seemed as if she was resurrected from there into this world, and she indeed felt that the culprit who caused her current miserable situation was right there.

"Muzan Kibutsuji... So, Izumi-san, are you going to go find him next?" asked Miko.
