And this time Final Selection participated, but Kanae sister and Shinobu were not told.
The two column-level sisters love Kanae very much, after all, she is their sister.
Of course, she is not a biological sister, Kanae is adopted.
And Kanae's past was also very pitiful, even more pitiful than Aoi Kanzaki's.
At least I have enjoyed the blood-related father's love mother's love, but Kanae has not enjoyed the love of his parents since he was born. It is not that he was born without his parents, but that his parents did not treat the child well at all, and did not even give him a name.
In the end, Kanae was sold directly for money. Fortunately, he immediately met Kanae and Shinobu, and was rescued and adopted as his sister.
"Nervous and scared"
The reply was in a low voice, and as it was said, Kanae was quite nervous.
She can't always hide under the protection of her two sisters, especially the two Hashira-level sisters. She must set an example and not let others gossip.
"If you are afraid, then prepare to participate again and do it again in two years. Really, no one will say anything to you."
Aoi Kanzaki is not lying, really no one will say anything Kanae.
Kanae's efforts are well known to everyone in the Butterfly Mansion.
As for the Butterfly Mansion, Demon Slayer Corps is responsible for the logistics department of treatment, and the main person in charge is Lord Kanae.
Therefore, facing her words, Kanae in front of him shook his head.
"If I don't participate, Aoi will be scared by herself~"
"Uh, really, your words will make me feel guilty~"
Aoi Kanzaki just rolled his eyes and said.
Having been with Kanae for so long, of course I knew that she didn't mean it and was just teasing her.
"Then let's go!"
"Hmm~"
In the blink of an eye, when the two came to the foot of the mountain, they saw Wisteria flowers that could not grow in this season.
Under the moonlight, there is a unique beauty.
They also saw other participants going up the mountain, and they also saw the two girls, and they also looked at them with some astonishment.
Just when the two of them were about to embark on the road to the mountain——
"Ah——!!!"
The sudden scream made the two of them pause for a moment, and then immediately turned to look behind them.
Others who also heard the scream looked at the source of the sound in shock.
"Kanae!!!"
Aoi Kanzaki felt a little numb because she felt that there were more than a dozen ominous eyes staring at her in the dark area in front of her.
Those sights seemed to be extremely eager to eat them. They were the sights of ghosts!!!
Aren't ghosts supposed to be in the mountains?
Moreover, the number of sight lines seems to be increasing continuously.
What kind of situation is this? I have never heard of such a thing.
Could it be that Mt. Fujikasane had a ghost imprisoned and escaped?
Just hiding nearby and preparing for a sneak attack?
Just then——
"Danger! Everyone, go up the mountain immediately!"
This is the crow in the sky crying urgently.
"Aoi Kanzaki, Kanao Tsuyuri, get up immediately Mt. Fujikasane!"
This time the voice was not a crow, but a girl wearing a kimono, who looked slightly younger than them. She was a daughter of the Demon Slayer Corps master, and the person responsible for hosting this Final Selection.
"More than twenty ghosts are approaching here and are trying to surround us. Members of Demon Slayer Corps are also rushing to support us. Please take refuge in the mountains immediately!"
The mountain was originally a place of trial, but now it has become a place of refuge?
"The ghosts that come close to 170 are stronger than those on the mountain. Don't do anything stupid!!!"
The other party further reminded me.
"There are so many ghosts, but they are more powerful than those on the mountain? Haven't you noticed them yet?"
Aoi Kanzaki couldn't help but ask, he was touched nearby without noticing any movement?
"Sorry, no trace of the other party was found. It is speculated that there should be a ghost that can teleport through space, teleporting these ghosts nearby."
These words made Aoi Kanzaki look stunned.
"Sky, space teleportation?"
What an outrageous ability.
"Yes, according to the information obtained from Flower Hashira, this may be Wuhan's revenge for killing half of Twelve Kizuki!!!"
"Sister? Are they okay?"
Nervous concern from Kanae.
"Wait, wait a minute, what did you just say?"
Although Aoi Kanzaki is also worried about sister Shinobu, the information revealed in the words of Hina Tsuyuri in front of her is quite extraordinary.
Did she hear wrongly?
"You said half of Twelve Kizuki were killed?"
"Yes, the report from Flower Hashira two days ago confirmed that Upper Rank Five and all the lower strings were killed!"
This affirmative reply made Aoi Kanzaki feel dizzy.
And Kanae, who was first concerned about his sister's safety, also widened his eyes.
That was Twelve Kizuki, and more than half of it was killed in one go?.
Chapter 652: Corpses entangled in Blood-Red Ice Thorns
Kanae remembers that when he set out for Mt. Fujikasane, he heard the news that Upper Rank Four had been eliminated.
The person who was eliminated was someone who was suspected to be related to my sister.
Then, when Kanae sister went to pick up Shinobu, she took the opportunity to participate in the selection of Demon Slayer Corps's official members.
When we started to carry out Final Selection, we actually received the information that half of Twelve Kizuki had been eliminated?
Upper Rank Five plus all six lower strings?
If Upper Rank Four is added to the list, Twelve Kizuki will be eliminated by seven people.
This kind of thing is simply unheard of.
For thousands of years, in the duel between Demon Slayer Corps and ghosts, in terms of the ratio of ordinary members to ordinary ghosts, Demon Slayer Corps has the upper hand.
However, in the high-level duel, that is, the duel between Hashira-level and the opponent Twelve Kizuki, the ghost side has the upper hand.
After fighting for so long, Twelve Kizuki has won the most.
Of course, the one who killed the most Demon Slayer Corps Hashira-level was mainly Upper Rank demon. As long as Lower Rank Demon was not a bit negligent in the newly promoted Pillar-level member, the normal chance of winning would be Demon Slayer Corps.
In short, after the struggle between the two sides, there was no such situation as killing half of Twelve Kizuki in a short period of time.
And Hina Tsuyuri actually told her that just two days ago, half of Twelve Kizuki were wiped out?
Same day? At the same time?
Demon Slayer Corps found Twelve Kizuki's lair, a sudden attack?
No, if this happens, the selection will be suspended.
Judging from Hina Tsuyuri's tone, she herself was still a little unbelievable about the news.
This means that it seems that it was not Demon Slayer Corps who destroyed Twelve Kizuki, but someone else?
Just like the case of Upper Rank Four?
By the way, Kanae sister was originally going to pick up Shinobu, and Shinobu had been with the person who killed Upper Rank Four. Did he get any ghost-killing secrets from him?
"Well, that's not a joke, right?"
Aoi Kanzaki is still a bit unbelievable.
"Don't know"
Hina Tsuyuri replied.
As a child of Ubuyashiki family, she knew how powerful Twelve Kizuki was, so she found it hard to believe the news.
But——
"This is the information sent back by Flower Hashira. Afterwards, after confirming the replies from Love Hashira and Insect Hashira who were also at the scene, Twelve Kizuki, Upper Rank Five and the rest of Lower Rank Demon were all wiped out in Nata Spider~ Mountain."
"Ah? All three of them are here? We eliminated them together?"
With the three Pillar-level member, plus the remaining Demon Slayer Corps members, it might be possible.
The battle must have been quite brutal. Sister Butterfly Shinobu and Mitsuri are afraid——
"No, Flower Hashira defeated Lower Rank Five, and the rest was done by the one who destroyed Upper Rank Four Hantengu."
When Hina Tsuyuri said this, his originally pale voice became a little uneasy.
The person who was supposed to be dead turned out to be alive, and this time six Twelve Kizuki were eliminated at once. This was outrageous.
There should be some special method.
According to the information, Miss Tamayo, who was studying how to turn ghosts into humans, was also at the scene. It seemed that he had some cooperation with that person, and that person's blood seemed to have a suppressive effect on ghosts.
So, the secret should be here.
Therefore, I just received a warning from the headquarters and found that ghosts suddenly appeared frequently, searching for something.
And here Mt. Fujikasane was accidentally exposed, and was suddenly surrounded by a large number of ghosts.
"Ah, Kanae, what are you—"
Kanae was shocked by Kanae's sudden action of pulling out Nichirin Blade and slashing Wisteria flowers, but halfway through speaking, Aoi Kanzaki immediately realized Kanae's plan.
So, she joined in and spread some of the Wisteria flowers she cut down on the mountain trail they were currently climbing.
Next, there was silence along the way, trying to fill the road with Wisteria flowers.
But I don't know how long I can withstand this.
If a high-level ghost appears, it doesn't necessarily need to be at the Twelve Kizuki level. As long as the ghost that eats more than a hundred people has a Blood Demon Art ghost, there will be a way to get rid of it.
In the blink of an eye, I arrived at the mountainside and saw more than twenty people participating in Final Selection.
Everyone was nervous.
Um?
Aoi Kanzaki saw a corpse, which was a mutilated corpse.
Through other people's words, it became clear that he was attacked and killed by ghosts in the mountain.
Looking at the woods leading to the mountain, Aoi Kanzaki also sensed some sinister sights. Those ghosts were hidden inside. As long as anyone was alone, they would rush out and eat them.
About a moment later, everyone was holding their swords nervously. One-third of the people were wary of the back, and two-thirds of the people were wary of the road leading up and down. The roar of the ghost could be heard.
You can even see the flying Wisteria flowers, and those ghosts are clearing the way here.
Coming!!!
A ghost jumped up and threw the ball in his hand.
Bang--!
A person was hit directly, his head exploded, and some blood spattered onto Aoi Kanzaki's face.
The next second——
