Chapter 54: ch52
As he was dying, Kai Isagi had only one thought: ghosts really... exist!
Feeling a deep sense of unwillingness, he had managed to win over Tsutako Tomioka, the brightest flower growing in the slum, but he couldn't enjoy it.
Already...
Unwillingly, he fell.
The demon broke open the door, grabbed a bright red heart that was still faintly beating, and opened its mouth full of fangs.
Sucking and slipping.
Kai Isagi's heart was swallowed by it, and it licked its tongue in remembrance. "Humans... are truly delicious food."
A pair of scarlet eyes fixed on the people in the room, eventually settling on Sam Miller alone.
Here, there was another of its kind.
But this was its territory; having someone rob food in its territory was truly... infuriating for the demon.
Sam looked at the scene in front of him indifferently, already having covered Kanao Tsuyuri's eyes with his hand long ago, lest Kanao see this cruel scene and be unnecessarily traumatized.
At the same time, he looked at Tsutako and Giyu Tomioka.
Giyu was already limp on the ground at this moment, horror in his eyes as he looked at the scene before him. Here, he could hardly be seen as the calm and unsmiling Water Pillar he would become in the future.
In contrast, it was Tsutako who surprised him a little. Although the girl was pale and trembling with fright, she firmly pulled her younger brother Giyu behind her to protect him.
A very respectable sister.
Sam didn't speak, but patted Kanao's little head.
Kanao obediently closed her eyes and backed away.
Finally, she retreated to the corner and stood there with her eyes closed like a marionette.
Sam nodded and stepped forward with his hands on his waist.
From the moment his hand touched the sword, his whole body glowed with joy.
At the same time, a message appeared in front of his eyes:
Name: Daisuke Nakazai
Ghost Level: Elementary Ghost (levels: Primary Ghost, Evolution Ghost, Lower Rank, Upper Rank, Ancestor of Ghosts)
Abilities: Immortality (Basic), Ghost Tongue, Super Healing, Danger Warning
Cons: Photophobia, Wisteria, Curse (from Muzan Kibutsuji), Nichirin Blades
This was all the information about the demon in front of him.
The moment he saw all the information about the demon, his sword was already drawn.
A fiery red arc slashed at the demon.
The demon seemed to have an intuition long ago and dodged to the side.
The fiery red arc struck the wall behind it. The earthen walls of the slums couldn't resist the sword at all, and a big hole was directly cut by the fiery red arc.
"Roar..."
The demon roared angrily, staring at the little demon who was robbing its food in its territory with scarlet eyes.
Sam didn't say a word, but hurriedly followed the demon's figure, gripping the hilt of his sword tightly with five fingers, and the tip of the sword touched the ground. As he moved, the tip of the sword scraped against the ground, bursting with brilliant sparks.
"Damn imp."
The demon licked its tongue, staring at Sam with scarlet eyes.
Almost the next moment,
The tongue jerked out.
In a flash, it whipped toward his face like a lash.
And almost at that moment,
The sword sliding on the ground, glowing with brilliant sparks, slashed violently.
"Clang clang."
There was a metallic vibration, and his sword didn't cut through the opponent's tongue.
"So hard."
He couldn't help murmuring.
And the opponent's tongue was also hurriedly withdrawn following the Nichirin Blade's slash, covering its mouth with both hands, and jumping backward.
Obviously, though the sword didn't cut off the demon's tongue, it still hurt the demon.
But at this time, Sam was closing in on the demon.
He raised the fiery red blade.
Facing its neck, he slashed over.
A bloodstain appeared on its neck, but it was so close that the demon reacted within a hair's breadth and dodged the sword.
Touching its neck, the demon's body bounced back, a pair of scarlet eyes glowing with fear.
"Damn, damn, damn, kid, you managed to piss me off, kid."
The demon roared.
Sam squinted his eyes, his expression extremely serious. This demon was a bit difficult to deal with; it could easily react to his attack and dodge it.
"Is it the ability to warn of danger?"
He muttered in his heart, but his eyes were burning with determination.
