Infinity Castle Melee (I)

"Every time I see your pretty face, it makes me angry."

Gyutaro scratched his face with his fingers, and after saying that, he was about to Doma.

"Are you sure you want to get vaccinated? Your sister is in real danger."

Doma completely calm and mumbled something in his sleep.

Upon hearing this, Gyutaro had just taken a step, suddenly stopped in his tracks.

Kokushibo, who was standing next to Doma, was also glancing at him.

"Hmph, these trash... they?"

Before Gyutaro could speak, Daki let out a mocking laugh, "A bunch of ugly bastards."

These words drew hostility from the inheritors.

These people came for Muzan and never expected things to turn out this way.

"They're here."

Suddenly, Kokushibo said something.

As soon as he finished speaking, the ground beneath everyone's feet suddenly transformed into a door or window, which opened in an instant.

Everyone except Doma and Kokushibo originally wanted to dodge.

But then Doma laughed and said, "Let's go see Lord Muzan."

Immediately afterwards, he and Kokushibo did not resist and entered the Infinity Castle through the open interdimensional passage.

Muzan?

Some of the inheritors showed hesitation.

They suspected that Doma was up to some trick or conspiracy.

Although Doma and Kokushibo have turned against Muzan, it's Muzan impossible for them to join forces again. Nothing is absolute! Moreover, the two were once Muzan's trusted subordinates, and their Muzan gathering of successors would undoubtedly be a good opportunity to wipe them all out.

"Come in."

Just then, a familiar voice rang in the minds of several of the first generation of inheritors.

It is Oboro.

Upon hearing this commotion, neither Daki nor her brother hesitated and immediately descended into the black space beneath the door and window.

The successors who rose to power in the post-era looked at each other in bewilderment, and finally gritted their teeth and entered the Infinity Castle.

Spacetime transformation.

A few seconds later, when their vision cleared, they found themselves separated and teleported to a series of floating platforms.

Numerous pavilions, side rooms, and staircases floated around, scattered as if weightless.

This is an alternate dimension.

Hmm? Immediately afterward, before they could even observe carefully, the inheritors felt Mount Tai Crushing the Top, oppressive aura.

The atmosphere inside the space was incredibly oppressive, filled with murderous intent.

They followed the source of the aura and saw a figure standing high up, looking down at them.

He wore an elegant black suit and a top hat, beneath which were a pair of all-too-familiar scarlet eyes and a pale face.

Their target was Muzan Kibutsuji! However, when some of the inheritors looked up further, they spotted another person.

The floating platform where this person sits is located high in the sky behind Muzan, at the very top of the space.

Who could Muzan be above Muzan?

Half of the inheritors' descendants did not recognize the other party, but... the fact that he was dressed in the same black haori as Gyutaro already made his identity obvious.

Hazy.

The origin of the inheritor's will.

The one who bestowed the power of the soul, the man who single-handedly changed the world.

He is also the famous God of Imperial Martial Might.

In the eyes of many, this one... is already comparable to God.

Swish.

Then, everyone knelt down in the direction of Muzan.

They were not worshipping Muzan, but bowing to Oboro.

Muzan was well aware of this, and remained expressionless and silent.

Seeing the 'senior's' actions, the remaining successors and descendants quickly followed suit.

"No need to be so formal... This place is called Infinity Castle, Muzan's territory. I am just a guest today." Oboro said with a smile, resting her chin on her hand.

His gaze swept over the faces of the people he had personally trained.

Aside from a few unfamiliar faces who only began to emerge after the Edo period... the transformation of these descendants is all thanks to the original generation of successors like Teshimaga and Yasuhara. Oboro's blood helped the original successors break free from Muzan's control, but when they transformed others later, Oboro's blood would be diluted, and the 'connection' between them would not be as close.

"Ah, it's so good to see you again."

A long-haired woman in a white kimono raised her head, revealing a flushed face through her falling hair. Her gaze, filled with admiration and reverence, looked up at Mt. Lonely.

"Qiluo, you've become more beautiful."

Long gave a compliment.

"Really?"

Upon hearing this, the woman immediately cupped her cheeks in her hands, her expression one of happiness.

"Um."

Long nodded.

There are also outliers among the inheritors. Although Oboro saved these people and made them bear the burden of their beliefs.

However, some, like the woman in front of us, do not have a strong purpose of reshaping the world. The reason they are able to hold firm to and pass on this will is simply because of Oboro. In order to fulfill Oboro's expectations, she is willing to give everything.

In truth, Oboro did not believe that he possessed such great charisma. Some inheritors of the same lineage only had this mindset because their experiences during the human era were too dark, and he happened to appear and save them, thus giving them a halo.

"I am just a witness today... Regardless of who wins or loses in the end, this will temporarily mark the end of an era."

Oboro continued.

When I saw him, I heard him say those words again.

The wise have already realized... that they were able to gather in the Infinity Castle not because of Muzan.

It was Oboro who was in control.

"Kill Muzan Kibutsuji, and from now on, the power of the demons will belong to the successors... You will experience unprecedented growth and improvement, and be able to better create an era that suits you, a world that you believe is right."

"Daki, Gyutaro ...you are to kill Doma and Kokushibo. This is the mission I gave you and your brother back then."

"In addition to eliminating traitors, Muzan also wants to get rid of all of you. To him, you are all obstacles."

"I will not intervene in today's battle. Although I played a part in causing your fates to intertwine, the way things have turned out is also inseparable from your own thoughts and actions. You all have your own positions that you cannot back down from... So, fight to your heart's content."

After Long finished speaking, he brought the tense atmosphere in the space to its peak.

A major battle is imminent.

Everyone was as tense as a bowstring.

This is a chaotic battle.

Of course, the person in the worst situation is undoubtedly Muzan.

The only person he doesn't need to be too wary of right now is Gyutaro.

However, he had also hunted down Gyutaro before, so it's hard to say that the latter didn't have the intention to kill him.

Besides, this is a mad dog.

If given the chance to kill him, Gyutaro would never hesitate.

"Don't forget what you just promised me."

At this moment, Muzan turned around, looked up and met Oboro's gaze.

After this battle, if he wins, Oboro will no longer be able to attack him or interfere with any of his actions, and will also have to help him become a 'perfect life'.

"Nature."

Long responded.

As soon as they finished answering, the figures on the floating platforms disappeared.

The Infinity Castle's power, controlled by Muzan, reversed its orientation, leaving only one person: Doma.

If he didn't do that, Muzan knew that the successor would definitely join forces with Kokushibo and Doma.

Doma brought the inheritors here because he wanted them to form teams.

Only Doma ... Muzan cannot forgive him.

Let's start by killing this traitor.

"It really was me... Should I call it lucky or unlucky?"

Doma chuckled, showing no sense of crisis whatsoever. "I still harbored a sliver of hope that you would choose Kokushibo."

Muzan be bothered to listen to Doma.

The next second, the floating platform under Doma's feet, which was as hard as rock, instantly turned into a huge ball of flesh, and the flesh and blood rapidly increased and split.

It has expanded exponentially.

A thin slit opened in the middle, revealing a gaping maw full of sharp teeth, which instantly swallowed Doma whole.
