One Slash, One Kill-Now There Really Are Only Two / Flashing Strike: A Finger Breaks the Swamp
"If you're here, hurry up and come out! Don't dawdle!"
"I know, what are you yelling about?"
A voice suddenly appeared on the deserted street, and then ripples began to appear on the ground.
A demon with two horns on its head crawled out, clutching a human in its hand.
"He, Mr. Kazumi?!"
Tanjiro and Nezuko were stunned for a moment when they saw Kazumi being held in the hands of a demon.
"No, I'm sorry."
An embarrassed look appeared on his face, Kazumi a wry smile.
He had been following Tanjiro and Nezuko since evening.
After discovering that they had suddenly moved, I didn't think much of it and followed them.
I just wanted to see what was going on, but I never expected to be captured by such an ugly creature.
With a hearty laugh, the tension on the Triangle-Faced Demon completely vanished.
"I have two here, and we also have hostages. You'd better surrender obediently."
"Two?"
With a frown, the Scribe looked at the Triangle-Faced Demon and said coldly.
Are you sure there are really only two?
After saying that, he clenched his left fist and slammed it hard against the wall next to him.
Chapter 243 One-hit kill, now there are indeed only two left.
Seeing the Scribe swing his fist, the Triangle-Faced Demon's calm face suddenly changed.
"Idiot, you've been spotted! Run!"
Suddenly, a vortex appeared on the previously calm wall, and then a ghost with only one horn and a terrified face jumped out from it.
Seeing the fist hurtling towards him, in order to save his life, he threw away what he was carrying.
"A girl?"
Seeing the girl being thrown towards him, Scribe raised an eyebrow, then changed his fist into a palm.
He grabbed her and was surprised to find that it was Tokie.
"Holy crap, they still brought them here."
He shook his head slightly, then hoisted the unconscious Tokie Hui onto his shoulder, freeing one hand.
Watching the One-Horned Demon's retreating figure, Scribe suddenly smiled at the Triangle-Faced Demon.
"Didn't you just say there were only two?"
After saying that, he drew his Nichirin Blade from his waist.
Without even glancing at it, the Scribe casually slashed, sending a slash flying.
The fiery strike tore through the air and blasted towards the already fleeing One-Horned Demon.
Sensing the increasing heat behind him, the panic on the One-Horned Demon was completely uncontrollable.
"Holy crap..."
The Two-Horned Demon, seeing the situation of the One-Horned Demon, was about to rush over when it was stopped by the Triangle-Faced Demon.
"No need, he can't be saved."
Just as the Triangle-Faced Demon said, no matter how the One-Horned Demon tried to escape, the slashes behind him seemed to have eyes and kept following him.
"Damn it, damn it, damn it!"
With a roar, he was finally hit by the slash.
Amidst the pitiful screams, the One-Horned Demon was struck.
First, his clothes were cut off, and then his body was chopped into pieces.
The flesh was charred, and the air was filled with the stench of protein.
Before long, the entire body of the One-Horned Demon was burned to ashes and disappeared into the air.
The only evidence that a ghost once existed here not long ago is the charred remains.
"Alright."
With a slight smile, Scribe sheathed the Nichirin Blade.
"Now, there are indeed only two left."
"I kill you!"
Upon seeing the One-Horned Demon killed, the Two-Horned Demon was instantly enraged.
He tossed aside the Kazumi he was holding and then rushed toward the Scribe.
"Don't even think about it!"
Nezuko dodged him in a flash.
Seeing the One-Horned Demon being eliminated, the Triangle-Faced Demon was also furious, but he did not lose his mind.
Before becoming a demon, he was a ninja, just like the Sound Hashira Tengen Uzui.
After being transformed, in addition to the Blood Demon Art that was born, the clone technique that it originally possessed also changed.
If the original self is willing, it can split into two other individuals with independent self-awareness.
These two individuals are the One-Horned Demon and the Two-Horned Demon.
However, since this is not due to Blood Demon Art, the personalities of the One-Horned Demon and the Two-Horned Demon are quite different from their original forms.
In addition, since their strengths are roughly equal, it's easy for them to clash, so Triangle-Faced Demon usually only uses his clones as a trump card.
Now, the One-Horned Demon has been killed by the Scribe.
Although it takes some time and after replenishing enough nutrients, he can still "revive" the One-Horned Demon.
The problem now is that he doesn't seem to have the time.
With his Nichirin Blade raised high, Tanjiro charged towards the Triangle-Faced Demon and engaged it in battle.
The Scribe walked up to Kazumi and lifted him off the ground.
"Stand still, aren't you a man?"
Scribe patted him hard on the back, poked his forehead, and said.
"If you don't want to regret it, just watch how Tanjiro and Nezuko avenge you."
"Revenge?"
Upon hearing this word, Kazumi Si froze, a bad premonition rising in his heart.
She handed the Tokie to him, and then Scribe walked to the side and picked up the torn clothes of One-Horned Demon.
He grabbed a pile of rags and then walked over to Kazumi's side.
"I sensed it earlier; this guy seems to have a hobby of collecting things."
With a sigh, the Scribe slowly unwrapped the tattered cloth.
Inside were many sparkly ornaments.
Judging from this, they should all be girls.
"That's right, those are the things from the girls we ate!"
The Two-Horned Demon, who was fighting Nezuko, laughed wildly Kazumi.
"If it's inside, then it means we've already eaten it!"
As soon as she finished speaking, Kazumi grabbed one of the pink Kocho.
This is a birthday gift he gave to Miss Riko; he absolutely cannot be mistaken.
In other words, his fiancée would never come back.
Large tears streamed from his eyes, Kazumi knelt on the ground, weeping silently.
This time, Scribe didn't finish speaking; he simply patted his shoulder lightly.
Not everyone has a strong heart. His fiancée was kidnapped by a ghost, and now he finds out she has been eaten.
The fact that Kazumi didn't collapse is already quite a good performance.
At this point, the battle between Nezuko and the Two-Horned Demon, and Tanjiro and the Triangle-Faced Demon, had reached its climax.
As time went on, the Triangle-Faced Demon realized that he was no match for Tanjiro.
If this continues, let alone eating people, we'll all perish here.
"No, this can't go on."
A chill ran through him; he knew he had to do something.
"You hold off that woman, I'll take care of these two first!"
He shouted at the Two-Horned Demon, then jumped back, creating distance between himself and Tanjiro.
Immediately afterwards, he pressed his hands on the ground, and waves of energy spread outwards.
"Feel the power of the swamp!"
As the Blood Demon Art was activated, the Scribe found the ground beneath his feet becoming increasingly soft.
Soon, my entire calf sank into it, and a sticky sensation kept washing over me.
Tanjiro's body was more severely entangled in the rubble than his own.
"Die!"
With a cold look in his eyes, the Triangle-Faced Demon turned the swamp up to its maximum.
With a few thuds, the figures of the Scribe and Tanjiro disappeared from the spot.
They were dragged into the swamp created by the Triangle-Faced Demon 'Blood Demon Art.
Chapter 244 Bullet Flash, a finger piercing the swamp
Before being pulled into the swamp, the Scribe didn't forget to call out to Nezuko was not far away.
"Nezuko, keep an eye on that guy, don't let him hurt Kazumi and Tokie."
But Nezuko simply nodded, and before she could speak, Scribe and Tanjiro were pulled into the swamp.
"Brother Tanjiro, the Mister Scribe!"
Seeing the two disappear, Nezuko wanted to go forward to help, but the Two-Horned Demon roared.
"It's not good to be distracted during a battle."
Gritting her teeth, Nezuko had no choice but to temporarily abandon her idea of helping and turn back to continue fighting her opponent.
"They should be alright, right?"
The reason Nezuko had this thought was because, in the instant she was pulled closer to the swamp, she saw a faint smile on the corner of the Scribe's mouth.
The Scribe clearly didn't take this Swamp Demon seriously.
On the other side, after confirming that his Blood Demon Art had been successfully activated, Triangle-Faced Demon also chose to enter the swamp.
"So this is the swamp that guy was talking about?"
With his arms crossed, Scribe felt the thick, yellowish liquid around him and a look of disgust appeared on his face.
If it weren't for the strange smell, he would have thought he had fallen into that thing.
As he searched for the ghost, a ribbon suddenly came into his field of vision.
One, two, three...
