Teiichi looked at Inosuke who was walking towards him with his sword away.

So... Inosuke still doesn't like to use his brain in battle!

However, Inosuke didn't seem to notice this. As he walked towards Teiichi, he pointed at himself with a thumbs-up and laughed:

"How about that? Pretty awesome, huh?!"

"..."

"Do you think the battle is over?" Teiichi asked, looking at Inosuke.

"Ha?"

Inosuke was taken aback at first, then immediately looked at the demon from before.

After confirming that the other person was indeed dead, and that only a pair of legs remained of the body dissipating, he pointed at the corpse and looked at Teiichi:

"Isn't that the end of it? Didn't you see that the ghost is almost completely dissipated?"

"..."

This... even after being reminded, I still didn't think...

You can clearly tell from the color and speed at which they dissipated...

Teiichi pointed in one direction.

"Hey, that's not it!"

Upon hearing Inosuke, Inosuke immediately looked in the direction Teiichi was pointing.

Two sharp ghostly claws appeared out of nowhere, and then a ghost that looked exactly like the one from before crawled up from below.

"Huh? What's going on?" Inosuke looked at the demon who had climbed back onto the roof with a puzzled expression.

After being bandaged up and lying on the roof, Hase looked up at the ghost. After confirming that it looked exactly like the two ghosts from before, he immediately began to share his information.

"Before you arrived, I had already killed a ghost. That ghost looked exactly like the one we just saw and this one, except for their clothes!"

"Huh? You just killed a demon?" Inosuke but ask, looking at him.

"Yes!" Hase nodded.

"Looks like you're not as weak as you look!" Inosuke said.

"..."

"So what's going on now? Why did they kill one, then another came, and now yet another one has appeared?" Inosuke asked Hase.

"I originally thought they were twins, but now it looks like they're triplets!" Hase said with an air of seriousness.

Teiichi: "..."

Just as Kanae gave her Teiichi look and gently closed her mouth.

"Triples... triplets?" Inosuke looked at Hase with a puzzled expression.

Seeing this, Hase explained, "It means she gave birth to triplets in one pregnancy."

"Ah, I know that. Wild boar mothers also give birth to several offspring at a time."

Inosuke nodded to indicate that he understood, but then asked somewhat strangely:

"But all the wild boar babies born from the mothers look different! Why do they all look the same?"

Teiichi: "..."

"Ah... this..."

This question falls outside Hase's area of expertise, and he didn't know how to answer it.

However, he quickly realized that he didn't need to answer. Hase shook his head and said:

"I don't know, but all people are born looking the same! Stop talking, he's about to attack!"

"Ah--!"

The demon roared and rushed towards Inosuke.

Inosuke turned his head to face the demon, and with both hands, he drew his Nichirin Blade from his waist once more.

"Hahaha... You've come at the perfect time! I was just thinking that the demon was too weak and I didn't get enough fun. You've come at just the right moment!" Inosuke shouted happily.

With that, Inosuke gripped his twin swords and charged at the demon once more, the blades clashing again.

Clang! Clang! Clang!...

Teiichi stood at a distance, watching the two fighting.

Inosuke's strength was clearly much greater than that of the demon, but instead of using his sword to cleanly and efficiently defeat the demon, he kept exchanging blows with it.

This is Teiichi, because although the Demon Slayer Corps now has specially arranged training and sparring, the opponents for these sparring are all other team members.

In other words, all the players' opponents used knives.

While this can increase combat experience, it clearly has its drawbacks.

That is, once you spar a lot, you will often subconsciously use the same mindset you had when fighting swordsmen to fight oni in actual combat.

And most ghosts don't use knives.

Currently, the only one known to possess a sword is Kokushibo.

Using the experience gained from sparring with teammates to fight demons is like...

You participated in a competition, and for this competition, you specially hired a sword master to train with you.

When the match started, they discovered that the opponent had pulled out a long spear.

This situation undoubtedly has a significant impact on the players' performance.

But there's nothing that can be done about it, since the Demon Slayer Corps members' strength is basically all contained in their swords.

Although Teiichi knocked Gyutaro unconscious with his fists, it was only because Gyutaro, not Teiichi knew much about boxing.

Back to the scene.

Kanae watched Inosuke and the demons fighting for a while, then leaned slightly towards Teiichi and asked in a low voice:

" Blood Demon Art?"

Teiichi nodded slightly and smiled gently at Kanae:

"Hmm, guess what type of Blood Demon Art it is?"

Kanae nodded thoughtfully, her gaze remaining fixed on the location of Inosuke's battle, her mind replaying the scene she had just witnessed.

It doesn't bleed when injured, dissipates differently from ordinary ghosts after death, and has the same face...

A moment later, Kanae tilted her head and looked at Teiichi:

" Blood Demon Art like clones?"

Teiichi chuckled and nodded, not surprised that Kanae had guessed.

Kanae was very intelligent; otherwise, she wouldn't have become a Pillar.

Back in Kuroishi Village, the reason she needed to Teiichi reminded was simply because, in her mind, no one ever intentionally harmed another.

Her guess was confirmed, and Kanae's lips curled into a slight smile. Then, as if she had thought of something, she looked at Teiichi and reminded him:

"Have you found the ghost's location yet? Don't let it get away!"

"Okay, don't worry, we found it!" Teiichi nodded.

When Inosuke was fighting this demon, and his Nichirin Blade struck the demon but the demon didn't bleed, he realized something was wrong and immediately activated his Wind Field.

After the Wind Field was activated, the ghost was successfully found inside the building downstairs.

Well, right now, my only fear is people like Muzan and Upper Rank Wind Field, who are no different from normal people and live in places with many people.

In that kind of place, even if Teiichi's Wind Field blew fiercely, Teiichi wouldn't be able to discover any information.
