Where is that guy now?

Mumei is extremely sensitive to the aura of the Kabane.

Even with humans who have not yet transformed into Kabane, as long as the virus is injected into their bodies, Mumei can sense a slight aura even during the transformation process.

When Ikoma transformed into a Kabaneri, Mumei immediately noticed it as well.

This shows how sensitive Mumei is to the aura of the Kabane.

Perhaps this is an ability that can only be developed after becoming a Kabaneri?

But at this moment, Mumei couldn't sense even a trace of the Kabane's aura from Ikoma.

So, no matter what others may think, Mumei believes.

Ikoma has indeed returned to being human.

And among the people Mumei knows, there is only one person who can do such a thing.

"Only that guy could do it..."

After all, just recently, that guy had just done the same thing.

Therefore, Mumei has reason to believe that the Kabane virus in Ikoma's body was also eliminated by Fang Li.

No.

More accurately, it should be said that it was killed.

By killing the part of Ikoma that existed as a Kabane, Fang Li turned Ikoma back into a human.

"Not only the Kabane virus that is transforming, but even the Kabane virus that has already completed its transformation can be killed?"

In fact, strictly speaking, only after completely transforming into a Kabane can it be considered a complete transformation.

An existence like a Kabaneri, which is between human and Kabane, can only be considered half-transformed, almost no different from the pregnant woman who was bitten by a Kabane before.

Therefore, Fang Li can still rely on killing the half-transformed virus to turn Ikoma back into a human.

If it were a completely transformed Kabane, Fang Li probably wouldn't be able to do anything.

Because that is a completely Kabane, without any trace of a human part.

If it is a Kabaneri who still possesses a human part, then if Fang Li kills the part that is Kabane, then what remains is naturally only the human part, and the Kabaneri can return to being human.

But if the target is a completely Kabane, then if Fang Li kills the "Kabane" part, that is completely killing the Kabane, and it is impossible to revive it and turn it back into a human.

In the final analysis, the Mystic Eyes of Death Perception can only guide the target to death, and it is not an ability used for salvation.

However, as a matter of fact, Fang Li did save two people with the power of death.

Thinking of this, Mumei suddenly had such a thought in her heart.

"Since Ikoma can return to being human, then I too..."

This thought had just arisen in Mumei's heart when Mumei was startled by her own thought and shook her head desperately.

"No! It won't work! It won't work for me!"

Yes.

It won't work for Mumei.

It's not that Mumei can't turn back into a human.

Since Ikoma can rely on the remaining human part to return to being human, then Mumei, a Kabaneri who is also only half-Kabanized, can naturally return to being human as well.

However, once she turns back into a human, Mumei will lose something very important.

Something very important to Mumei.

"If I turn back into a human, then I won't be able to fight!"

---Fighting.

That is the only function given to Mumei since she became a Kabaneri, and it can also be regarded as Mumei's current reason for existence.

If she loses this meaning...

"Then, I will definitely be abandoned..."

Fear began to arise in Mumei's heart.

It was the emotion that arose because she didn't want to be abandoned.

However, in contrast to this fear, a hopeful emotion also began to arise in Mumei's heart.

"Turn back into a human..."

That was a small hope that she had never thought of before.

However, this small hope was also immediately erased by Mumei.

Suddenly, Mumei's heart became extremely complicated, and she stomped her foot and said angrily.

"It's all that guy's fault!"

That's right.

It's all that guy's fault.

If it wasn't for him, she wouldn't be so agitated.

"I'm definitely going to settle the score with him!"

With that thought in mind, Mumei glared at Ikoma.

"Y-you... what do you want?" Ikoma said tremulously, without any backbone. "I... I'm telling you, I'm not a Kabaneri anymore. If you hit me like you did before, I'll definitely be seriously injured."

"If you don't want to get hit, then honestly answer my question," Mumei said with dissatisfaction. "Where is that guy now?"

"That guy?" Ikoma was taken aback at first, then hesitated for a moment before tentatively asking, "Are you referring to Fang Li?"

"Who else could it be?" Mumei said directly. "Hurry up and tell me where he is. I'm going to settle the score with him!"

Hearing that, Ikoma opened his mouth, but couldn't say a word.

Looking at Ikoma like that, Mumei frowned and stared straight at him, saying, "You wouldn't be trying to protect him, would you?"

Ikoma didn't answer, remaining silent.

Seeing this, Mumei's frown deepened, and even the bystanders couldn't help but ask.

"Ikoma," Yomogawa Ayame said with some worry, "Did something happen to Mr. Fang Li?"

Yomogawa Ayame's words made Kurusu Kunoichi and Kibito Aragane exchange glances, and they also turned their attention to Ikoma.

Kurusu Kunoichi even questioned, "What exactly happened?"

Ikoma's expression immediately became troubled, as if he didn't know how to express himself.

This made Mumei furious.

"Just say something!" Mumei said extremely angrily. "You didn't do something to him, did you?"

"I didn't!" Ikoma retorted reflexively, then said with some helplessness, "I myself don't know what happened."

"What?" Everyone was stunned.

"I only remember my body suddenly becoming very weak, my throat was very dry, and then my consciousness became blurred," Ikoma said with uncertainty. "After that, Fang Li seemed to come to the carriage to see me and said a few words to me, but my consciousness was very blurred, and I didn't hear clearly at all. When I woke up, I found that I had turned back into a human."

"However, there was one sentence that Fang Li said to me that I still remember." Ikoma's expression tightened.

"He said that he was leaving soon."

"Leaving?" Yomogawa Ayame and the others were completely surprised.

Mumei's eyes widened slightly, and then she suddenly turned her head and rushed into the forest at the fastest speed.

On the open space, a commotion gradually spread.
