Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba: The Second Sun after the Nation

"Can you bear with it? We have known each other for such a long time. Apart from anything else, as your successor who you have worked so hard to train, I don't think I will be killed by you with just one blow."

Ji Zhuyu first made an exaggerated gesture, then asked mischievously, and then before the man in white could react, he instantly switched to a serious look and spoke.

"Of course I'm reluctant to let you go. After all, I haven't seen a friend as good as you for a long time. But you don't seem to want to inherit this power. So in order to prevent today's events from being leaked, I have to do it myself and end this farce between you and the World Tree before I die completely."

When the man in white started talking, he looked like a gentle and elegant man with a warm and elegant appearance. But when he started to speak the second half, as the wind blew in again and again, taking away his warmth, he became like a piece of ice, wanting to freeze everything around him.

"You look so cold, just like that system, but even so, I know you still care about me, right? After all, if the World Tree comes, I think I will become like you, so shouldn't I thank you, old friend?"

Ji Zhuyu was very sensitive to the changes in the surrounding temperature, but even so, a certain pufferfish was still madly testing the edge of death. At least he didn't want his friend to carry that heavy heart and think of himself as a sinner even at the moment of death.

"Saying thank you to someone who wants to take your life, your train of thought is really becoming more and more incomprehensible to me. How come after fighting against pollution for so long, you have also been polluted, causing your IQ to decline?" The cold air around the man in white suddenly broke, the corners of his mouth twitched slightly to reveal a smile, and he said jokingly.

"If my IQ really regressed, do you think you would still be here talking nonsense to me?" Ji Zhuyu looked at the smile on the white-clothed man in front of her. Although she wanted to sigh that the other person's smile was really beautiful, she didn't say much.

"Of course not, so what is your answer?"

"From the perspective of cherishing life, do you think I can say no to your conditions?"

"You can do it. At least I think the outcome if you say no will be much better than the outcome if you agree. After all, if you agree, you will be gambling with your life like me, and you will be extremely easy to be abandoned."

"Both ends are death, so can't I live?"

"I can't give you a definite answer, but I can only say that it's difficult..."

"You can hear it."

"Since we are both going to die, why don't you tell me about your past? Please, for a friend like you who has secrets, I will die with regret if I don't dig out your secrets."

“I can tell you books, but I hope my story can be remembered, so if you really want to listen, then promise to inherit this power, otherwise I would rather be forgotten by everyone with everything.

After all, at this stage, if I still talked about the past, sought help from friends and moved forward, I would have already fallen into despair, although I am not much better now. "

"What do you think of me?"

"Almost. But you're such a good actor. You almost fooled me."

"What? If I had known you looked so relieved, I wouldn't have tried every way to comfort you."

"Then should I thank you? But the past is the past. You should have seen in the long river of time that those regrets can never be made up for."

"I should be glad that I wasn't stupid enough to actually change this, right?"

"Don't belittle yourself. You are not stupid at all, otherwise you would not have been favored by that world consciousness. It's a pity that the world consciousness abandoned you."

"Since you said he is a consciousness, that means he is very similar to a human. Since he is a human, isn't it normal that he can't recognize others? Besides, if I get rid of him, I will be more carefree."

"Indeed, but you can't get away from it all the time."

"So you want to do it now? I think I have disturbed him just now?"

"Don't worry, he won't care about these things for now. He has more things to worry about every day than you think. There are many people who seek death, but this is the first time I've seen someone like you do it."

"So you helped me again?"

"That's it."

"How long can you last?"

"Not much, maybe an hour."

"Indeed, since there is only one hour left, let's not talk about those things. I still want to hear about your past."

"Do you really want to die with me?"

"So what? Even if I don't die, as long as I show up, I will only bring bad luck to the people around me, just like in the past."

"You know this bad luck is not that bad luck. You are no longer that unlucky. Besides, your fate is not like this."

"Maybe it was like that before, but it's different now. Just like you said, I'm courting death. As someone who has read a lot of novels, I understand a little bit. If a person courting death doesn't have the aura of a protagonist, he will definitely die miserably. So in order not to implicate the people around me, I think it's better to just disappear from this world silently. After all, isn't Yang Hui still there to support everything?"

"Don't tell me this now. With your strength, although you don't have the ability to face the World Tree, it's not that difficult to kill yourself in this world. At least if you have called people in advance, you won't be beaten up. In this case, you should have a better idea of ​​the combat power you can release than me."

"Can I just say I want to accompany you? After all, I don't want to watch my old friend die alone."

"Do you think I need your company?"

"I think it is necessary. Although there is hope only when people are alive, how can going to hell together and starting a new life not be a kind of hope?"

"You say that as if you don't even know that I have no future."

"I know, that's why I don't want you to leave alone like that."

"But you should know that I would prefer someone to remember all this, right?"

"But you should also know that I don't want to work for a heartless boss who killed my best friend."
