Toyokawa Shoko put down the girl she had just rescued. Apart from feeling a chill run down her spine, she felt a surge of anger.

"You bastard, you're not even human anymore!"

She swore and then pulled out two handguns.

"Go to hell, you bastard!!!"

Bang bang bang! ! ! !

With unlimited ammo, Gals fired three steel-core armor-piercing rounds in an instant. Doma unfolded his iron fan, smiling as he prepared to easily dodge by observing the direction of her gunfire.

but--

Three bullets, all of them, entered his body.

Two brains, one heart!

The bullets, through slight adjustments using telekinesis, achieved a trajectory change that would otherwise be impossible!

Douma suddenly had a burst of inspiration and a broad mind, and he lay straight on the ground, no longer moving.

Solved—no, the Supreme God didn't give any hints!

"Oh my, you also have abilities similar to their Blood Demon Arts? Interesting, really interesting."

Doma's headless body laughed wildly, sprang to his feet, and his injuries were almost completely healed in an instant.

"But these kinds of toys can't kill us."

Doma unfurled the iron fan in his hand and laughed loudly.

"Then let's have some fun—Blood Demon Art: Lotus Leaf Ice!"

He waved his folding fan, and in an instant, countless wisps of cold air enveloped the entire lotus pond!

"Found her! It's her! It really is Toyokawa Shoko!!!"

The opposing personality controlling Wakaba Mutsumi's body laughed maniacally in the mental world.

"How lucky! To actually meet her here! Hahaha, it seems we don't have to wait until the end of the war!"

"What about the other one? Where is the pink-haired one?"

Boom~~~~

Nakime didn't speak, but gently plucked the strings of her harp. Soon, through the shared vision of Nakime's clone, Wakaba learned of Chihaya Aine's whereabouts.

At this moment, Chihaya Aine is showing off.

"Ha! Sun Breathing - Ripple Dash!!!"

Just as a group of random Demon Slayer Corps members were surrounded by more than a dozen low-level demons, each said to possess Lower Moon strength, Chihaya Aine broke through their defenses.

Her landing point was in this vicinity, and unlike Toyokawa Shoko, who didn't watch much anime, she recognized the place immediately.

Infinity Castle, Demon Slayer!!!

So, does that mean I can finally pet Nezuko?

Hehe, Nezuko, adorable Nezuko~~~~

This woman, who was so oblivious to a certain extent, knew what kind of place and what kind of story it was, but instead of being afraid, she felt a kind of joy, like a chef entering her favorite world.

Then, as she ran forward, she bumped into a group of random members of the Demon Slayer Corps who were being attacked.

So, it's time for me to show off?

Chapter 64: 63. Holy Pillar - Chihaya Aine!

In the Infinity Castle, besides the main characters, there was also a group of unlucky bystanders. They were all dragged in by Nakime on Muzan's orders, caught off guard and without any warning, and ended up in this demon-infested Infinity Castle.

Many of them didn't even see the ghost's face before they fell to their deaths.

As for the vast majority, they didn't even qualify to participate in the Upper Moon battle; they were almost completely wiped out by the demons without any description.

So, after this battle, regardless of the circumstances, the Demon Slayer Corps was effectively wiped out, almost completely. But in a way, could this be considered a good thing for an organization that fought for humanity?

"Maintain formation and don't panic!"

Leading his men, Murata shouted for them to move closer to him, took a deep breath, and slashed at the enemy before him.

Type II: Waterwheel!

Although his swordsmanship is not as good as the protagonists', it's still more than enough to kill this small fry.

As a result, he missed a step.

It wasn't that he was stupid, but rather that the area beneath his feet had changed. He missed a step, and his attack completely failed.

The hideous demon had already opened its blood-red maw towards him.

—We're doomed!

Just as those words echoed in Murata's mind, a figure suddenly appeared from the side.

So, it's time for me to show off?

Seeing the Demon Slayer Corps members being surrounded and attacked, Chihaya Aine's mind was filled with nothing but showing off.

After all, she insisted on hanging out with that group of extraordinary people outside, all for the sake of showing off.

"Ha! Sun Breathing - Ripple Dash!!!"

Stylish moves, sharp techniques, and a handsome appearance.

I'm incredibly handsome!

With her superhuman muscle strength and reaction speed, Chihaya Aine suddenly appeared and, despite lacking breathing techniques, was still able to move at the level of a Pillar.

More importantly, she also possesses Ripple Qi Gong!

Although I don't know why, when I use Ripple Qigong, I always feel an itchy sensation in my body, like the feeling when I'm being attacked.

But since this move is said to be effective against dark creatures, it should also be effective against these ghosts!

As the ripple energy began to circulate, the itchy feeling all over my body returned.

And as I completed the circulation of Qi, I gathered it in my left hand—my left hand, burning hot like fire!!!

Ha! Take this Vampire Ripple Dash!

Golden ripples traveled to the vampire blade, and with two sharp slashes, the three demons were instantly cut down!

Before they could even be decapitated, the moment the ripples traveled through the blade into their bodies, they turned to ashes with a mournful cry!

At the same time, she also received 600 reward points.

Slay the enemy, sheathe the sword, and return it to its scabbard.

Chihaya Aine suppressed her urge to laugh, striving to maintain the image of a cool and imposing expert, until—

"Miss, your hand! Your hand!"

Murata pointed somewhat panicked at Chihaya Aine's burning left hand.

"Ah, it's so hot! So hot! So hot! So hot! So hot! So hot!!!"

It was only at this moment that Chihaya Aine realized her arm was on fire. She immediately abandoned the expert demeanor she had just managed to maintain and jumped around for a while before finally extinguishing the fire on her hand.

Even though the pain receptors were blocked, the burning area still felt incredibly hot. Chihaya Aine looked at her charred hand with a mournful face, took out a bottle of blood and drank it down in one gulp. Although it was slowly recovering thanks to the vampire's excellent self-healing ability, it was still so hot!

Murata and the other Demon Slayer Corps swordsmen watched this 'performance' in utter bewilderment, and an awkward atmosphere spread throughout the area.

"Hello, miss, are you also a member of the Demon Slayer Corps?"

Ultimately, Murata stepped in to ease the awkward situation, and after a moment's thought, Chihaya Aine decisively admitted it.

"Yes, I am an unofficial member of the Demon Slayer Corps, the Holy Pillar Chihaya Aine!!!"

Ju, is it actually a pillar?

The Demon Slayer Corps members were shocked. Their identities could not be verified, but there was no doubt that her strength was genuine.

To be able to deal with so many powerful demons so easily, it's no exaggeration to say that he has the strength of a Pillar.

Although this 'Sacred Pillar' is highly suspicious in terms of name, appearance, and speech, now that he is in Muzan's Infinity Castle, the only difference is between a human and a demon.

As long as it can kill ghosts, whether it's suspicious or not is completely unimportant!

Therefore, Chihaya Aine easily blended into the group of Demon Slayer Corps members and even became their fan and focus.

This undoubtedly pleased her greatly, but it didn't escape the notice of Yushiro, who had infiltrated the Demon Slayer Corps...

That woman, she wasn't a ghost, but she wasn't human either!

Yushiro narrowed his eyes. He didn't know why this woman of unknown origin had come in, but it seemed... her enemy was also Kibutsuji Muzan.

Considering that his identity was not something that could be made public, he decided to observe for the time being.

Just a short distance away, an eyeball with legs spread wide, bearing the mark of this arrogance, took in everything.

"Is it a ripple-based energy enhancement...? But why is she on fire?"

When Wakaba Mutsu witnessed Chihaya Aine's battle, he first pondered the opponent's enhanced abilities, and then wondered why she had suddenly become so passionate.

However, that's not important. The important thing is—

She wasn't particularly strong, and Xiangzi's abilities weren't exactly impressive either, so why were they matched up behind her?

While this is partly due to her specifically targeting one person with "war preparations," if we consider the relative strengths of different factions...

Just how strong is their mysterious third teammate?

Forget it, I'll stop thinking about this for now.

Evil Wakaba Mutsu shook his head, his gaze fixed on Nagasaki Motoyo standing to the side.

"Su Shi, you absolutely mustn't let me down at this crucial moment."

Evil Wakaba Mutsu glanced at the sleeping Wakaba Mutsu in the spiritual world, a slight smile playing on her lips, and spoke earnestly to Su Shi.

"Your abilities are the key to our victory in this game!"

Su Shi raised her head blankly, her eyes devoid of any light. Finally, she simply nodded slowly, a smile appearing on her face.

"Yes, I will do my best... Xiao Xiang."

A faint, blissful smile graced her face, while her eyes reflected the slowly rotating magatama.

'The "Illusionary Technique: Not Here" applies to most reincarnation worlds. This skill can be obtained upon exchange. This illusion can envelop and cover what the caster sees with a layer of illusion, making the target believe that what they see is actually something else. Requires a chakra energy system, 1500 reward points, and one D-rank side quest!'

This is a C-rank genjutsu, one of the many ninjutsu skills from the Naruto world. Its practical value in actual combat is not high, but it has great uses in other aspects.

Especially in the hands of the evil Wakaba Mutsumi—she directly used this technique to control Nagasaki Motoyo's 'cognition'.

In the Naruto world, genjutsu (illusionary techniques) is a power based on the chakra system, but that doesn't mean genjutsu is useless to you if you don't have chakra. In fact, if your brain isn't protected by sufficient energy or mental strength, the effects of genjutsu can be even more deadly!

Although Nagasaki Motoyo had acquired the bloodline of a novice sorcerer, her mental strength was completely insufficient to resist the illusionary control of Wakaba Mutsumi, who had awakened two tomoe. Since the world before that, Nagasaki Motoyo's perception of the outside world had been altered since entering the cycle of reincarnation!

"Mu, aren't you going too far...?"

Sanjiao Chuhua couldn't help but speak up, but Ruoye Mu didn't even look at her and retorted with just one sentence.

"Do you still want to find your Xiangzi? Don't forget why you transferred points and side quests to me every time."

Upon hearing this, Misaka Hatsuka bit her lip slightly. Yes, under the guidance of this seemingly transformed Wakaba Mutsumi, she was the 'meat pig' used to control the war effort.

Although it was entirely voluntary, she handed over all the reward points and side quests from each game to the other party. Apart from maintaining her attributes to barely qualify for the Secret difficulty level, she didn't have a single penny of savings.

And isn't all of this ultimately for Xiangzi's sake?

Chapter 65: Sixty-Four. Holy crap, fire!

"If you find cruelty repulsive, then don't harbor any illusions about staying in this world. We're progressing much slower than Xiangzi; without some special methods, it's impossible for us to catch up with her!"

Back then, Wakaba Mutsumi used such decisive, almost ruthless rhetoric to persuade Mikami Hatsuka to become that 'sacrifice'.

Abandoning all enhancements and all initiative, she exists solely as a "meat pig" to mitigate the team's difficulty. All reward points are given to Wakaba Mutsu, focusing all efforts on enhancing her alone!

Isn't the goal to defeat Chihaya Aine and take Shoko back?

Although it's a loophole-exploiting tactic, it's undeniably effective. At least so far, they've successfully passed three consecutive levels of classified difficulty!

And now, they have finally met Xiangzi...

The opportunity is right in front of us. If we give it up, we might not get another chance until the final battle of the first season.

So you're going to give up just because it's cruel?
