Infinity, I became stronger by practicing with the female characters

The last scene the evil ghost saw was a streak of green light that seemed to have crossed space and was coming towards him.

“Squeaky——!”

Amidst the crackling sound of boiling water being poured on ice, the evil ghost's head was transmitted to the March of the Dead of ripple energy and cut in half.

"Eh?"

The evil ghost's head rolled several times on the ground. It stared blankly at the tall body standing there, feeling extremely familiar.

"That's me? Am I going to die..."

As its vision gradually blurred, the evil ghost recalled the warm memories of its time as a human, and tears as big as beans slid down its ugly face.

If it were the male protagonist of Demon Slayer, Tanjiro Kamado would be here.

Smelling this sad breath, one would probably extend a warm hand to give the ghost some warmth before it dies.

But it was different for a merciless guy like Dongfang Shangcan. He took advantage of the fact that the ghost was not completely dead yet and used the March of the Dead to turn it into his own puppet.

From then on, the ghost's allegiance changed from the Ghost King Muzan to Dongfang Shangcan.

Well, they both require it to work hard, so there is not much difference.

Kill an intermediate ghost and gain 500 experience points and 500 reincarnation points.

"So, my sword can really kill demons, right?"

Dongfang Shangcan raised his eyebrows at the silent Tomioka Giyu and said proudly.

"Well, I made an error in judgement."

After his target was solved, Giyu Tomioka nodded to the two of them and turned to leave.

Seeing this, Dongfang Shangcan hurriedly took Leah to follow.

He wanted to follow Tomioka Giyu's lead and join the Demon Slayer Corps to learn (meow) the various breathing techniques within the Demon Slayer Corps. How could he let the other party get away so easily?

Furthermore, he also needs the Demon Slayer Corps' intelligence network to provide him with information about evil spirits.

Even if his [Luck] attribute is as high as 13 points, it is impossible for evil spirits to hit his sword easily every time.

"Is there something wrong?" Tomioka Giyu turned and looked at the two of them.

"I just feel that you are very strong and are fighting against evil spirits. You should be the legendary ghost hunter. I want to get to know you." Dongfang Shangcan said quite familiarly.

Originally, he wanted to show his uniqueness in front of Giyu Tomioka and arouse his interest.

Then, the two had a conversation and even fought.

Giyu Tomioka was amazed and recruited him into the Demon Slayer Corps.

I never thought that the other party would play by such an unconventional method.

This simple plan failed at the first step.

Where's your curiosity? Has it run away from home?!

It's not normal to see an ordinary person who is not a member of the Demon Slayer Corps chop an evil demon to death with an ordinary knife. Normal people would know to get some information, so turning around and walking away is a very bold move.

Tomioka Giyu: "Don't you know me?"

Dongfang Shangcan, who already knew that the other party couldn't judge according to common sense, clasped his hands together and asked politely, "May I ask your name, sir?"

Tomioka Giyu: “…”

Tomioka Giyu, who was unfamiliar with Eastern etiquette, was silent for a moment, then clasped his hands together like Dongfang Shangcan and said:

"My name is Tomioka Giyuu, and I'm a member of the Demon Slayer Corps."

Dongfang Shangcan pretended to be puzzled and asked, "Are the Demon Slayer Corps the legendary demon slayer? You guys do exist, so impressive."

There is no way, at this time his character is that of a man whose entire family was killed by ghosts.

Then he went into the deep mountains and forests to practice in seclusion. After his magical skills were perfected, he came out of the mountains to kill evil spirits. He was a simple boy.

With this kind of character setting, he definitely doesn't know the specific information about the Demon Slayer Corps.

"Don't you know the Demon Slayer Corps?"

Tomioka Giyu was really surprised at this moment. He originally thought that Dongfang Shangcan knew breathing techniques and could kill demons with a sword, so he must be someone related to the Demon Slayer Corps, but he didn't expect him to be a complete novice.

"I have heard of the legend of ghost hunters, but I didn't know they were called the Demon Slayer Corps." Dongfang Shangcan continued to pretend to be ignorant.

"Who taught you the breathing technique you used earlier?"

Dongfang Shangcan said seriously, "I figured it out on my own. After all, normal people can't beat ghosts, so I can only think of a way myself."

Tomioka Giyuu pressed on, "Then who gave you the Nichirin Sword in your hand?"

"This is my family heirloom sword. It shouldn't be the Sun Blade you mentioned."

"Apart from the Sun Blade, how could there be another sword that could kill evil spirits? Did you use poison?"

"No. Transfer the energy converted from breathing into the knife in your hand, and then you can kill the ghost. Isn't that what you do?" Dongfang Shangcan asked curiously.

Tomioka Giyu: !!!

Chapter 44: What a terrible chapter title

Compared to the cunning Dongfang Shangshen, Tomioka Giyu seems too "simple".

After being fooled by Dongfang Shangcan, he decided to test the truthfulness of what Dongfang Shangcan said.

If Dongfang Shangcan really could kill demons without using the Nichirin Sword, he would take him to see Ubuyashiki Kōya, the leader of the Demon Slayer Corps.

The reason why the Sun Blade can slay demons is because its blade is made of "Gorilla Scarlet Iron Sand" and "Gorilla Scarlet Ore", materials that absorb sunlight.

If only there were someone who could kill a demon without using the Nichirin Sword or poisoning it.

This proves that the other party's breathing method has the same effect as sunlight.

This is a completely different style from the various breathing techniques currently circulating within the Demon Slayer Corps.

If this breathing method could be mastered by the members of the Demon Slayer Corps.

This will probably be of some help to the Demon Slayer Corps in their future actions.

Just as Dongfang Shangcan and Leah followed Giyu Tomioka to cause trouble for a nearby evil spirit.

In another small village far away from this small mountain village, a young man who was a player like Dongfang Shangcan was standing in front of an evil ghost.

"This is troubling. Honghong really can't kill this creature called a ghost. Whether it's beheaded, dismembered, or sliced, it will regenerate. Can't deal real damage to the same attribute? What a broken mechanism.

Is it really true that we can only wait for the sun to come out? Then what about this derivative..."

【drop!!!】

[We have detected that the player is mentioning information related to the park, and we are issuing a warning again.]

Looking at the amusement park prompt that suddenly popped up, the young man decisively changed his words and said, "Then this game won't be fun at all."

The young man who was talking to himself looked no more than twenty-five or twenty-six years old.

He has a handsome face with a full three-dimensional sense, wears a pair of black half-frame glasses, and has an elegant and calm temperament.

If it weren't for his bright, vivid blue eyes, he could easily be mistaken for an ordinary young scholar. Although he was smiling and his tone was very gentle, it didn't seem to carry any emotion.

As for his weapon, it was a scarlet sword that was very inconsistent with his gentle temperament, and he carried it on his back.

What is strange is that there are evil spirits who act as hunters all year round.

Although he was not restrained at all, he stayed obediently in front of the young man.

No.

It should be said that the evil spirit is afraid of the young man, extremely afraid.

The young man was clearly standing in front of the evil ghost and talking to himself, but the evil ghost had no intention of attacking.

Instead, he let out a sound that was almost like a wail.

"Woo..."

It curled up in front of the young man, trying to make itself into a ball.

It should be to reduce the volume exposed to the eyes of young people.

The evil ghost raised his head tremblingly and looked at the young man in front of him with fear and anxiety, just like a lamb to be slaughtered looking at a butcher sharpening his knife.

Under the guidance of the Crow, the Class A members of the Demon Slayer Corps rushed to kill the demon as quickly as possible. Seeing the evil demon trembling in front of the young man, they were a little confused for a moment.

But he was carefree and quickly put the problem behind him.

He drew his sword, stepped forward, and with a flash of silver light, he beheaded the evil ghost.

He didn't know if it was his illusion, but when he cut off the evil ghost's neck with a knife, the evil ghost smiled at him with relief and gratitude.

After dealing with the man-eating demon, the Class A member came up to the young man with a bright smile.

"Hello, my name is Hanzawa Chikage, and I'm a member of the Demon Slayer Corps. You should have a blood feud with demons just like me. You should be very powerful. Join us, and together we will kill all the evil demons without leaving a single one alive."

The young man pushed his eyes on the bridge of his nose with the base of his palm and asked in a gentle voice:

"The Demon Slayer Corps, are they the legendary ghost hunters?"

Hanzawa scratched his head a little embarrassedly.

"The members of the Demon Slayer Corps are indeed demon hunters, but they are not legendary. It's just that the existence of demons is not suitable for ordinary people to see, so we appear to be more mysterious."

"Is that so? What does that pillar represent?" the young man asked.

"Have you heard of the Pillars?" Hanzawa was a bit surprised, but he didn't think much about it and told the other party directly. "The so-called Pillars refer to the strongest fighters in the Demon Slayer Corps. We currently have nine Pillars in the Demon Slayer Corps, and they are all very powerful."

"Oh, there are nine of them. That's pretty good." There was a flickering light in the young man's eyes.

"Well, with so many powerful swordsmen here, I feel like our generation has a good chance of killing the Demon King and completely eradicating the existence of evil spirits."

Hanzawa Swordsman spoke with passion, a look of hope on his face, as if he had already seen the day when the demons would be completely annihilated.

Noticing the scarlet sword on the young man's back, Hanzawa reminded him:

"Demons cannot be killed with ordinary weapons. Join the Demon Slayer Corps and pass the entrance exam to receive your own Nichirin Blade. However, if you're used to using this type of greatsword, you'll have to work hard.

Ordinary team members do not have a swordsmith who will make weapons specifically according to your requirements.

However, I believe you should be able to reach the standard soon, let us work hard together."

Hanzawa spoke enthusiastically and gave the young man a thumbs up.

At this moment, he did not notice that the young man's face had darkened. His gentle face turned ashen, so gloomy that it seemed as if water was about to drip out of it, and his bloodshot eyes spewed out raging anger!

"You mean, you want me to abandon Hong Hong and use your so-called Nichirin Sword?!!"

"What is Honghong?" Hanzawa, who had not reacted at first, asked in confusion.

But he soon guessed what the young man meant based on the context.

"Is this sword precious? Sorry, I don't know, but it's true that the only sword you can use to slay demons is the Sun Wheel..."

Hanzawa didn't have time to finish the rest of his words.

Because the young man had already placed his hand on the hilt of the greatsword behind him.

This sword is really big. The width of the blade is almost as wide as the young man's thin body. The hilt and blade are almost two meters long. The young man, who is less than 1.8 meters tall, naturally carries the sword on his back in a slanted manner.

The greatsword was not put into the scabbard, but automatically stuck to the young man's back, as if it was attracted by a magnet.

"call!!"

The next moment the young man's hand rested on the hilt of the sword, he swung the sword forward heavily, cleanly and neatly, without any delay.

He abandoned his indifferent hesitation. That was a swordsmanship honed entirely on the battlefield, not for self-preservation, but for killing the enemy. Just one strike of the sword, yet it felt like a mountain pressing down on one's head.

The unprecedented sense of oppression instantly turned into a tangible existence, imprisoning Hanzawa Chikage from all directions.

Under the influence of this pressure, Hanzawa Chikage, who was rated as Class A, roared angrily and drew his sword under the huge pressure, trying to block the sword.

However, the gap between the two sides is huge.

The Sun Blade had almost no effect, and the greatsword chopped it into pieces with unstoppable force.

"puff."

Without even a scream, Hanzawa's seemingly strong body was cut in half by the powerful blow.
