[Blade of Ghost Slayer] as bright as the sun

That ghost can at least last until dawn, and staying by the opponent's side is just getting in the way if he is not strong enough.

So she left Butterfly Chanae, and killed all other ghosts who wanted to get close to Butterfly Chanae.

But she failed again because she underestimated the strength of the ghost that Qian Huazhu faced.

——Why did you leave? If you were by my sister's side, maybe it wouldn't be like this!

Yeah, why did she leave Butterfly Chanae?The self-righteous "best decision" never brought her the results she wanted.In the end, her family died, as did Butterfly Kanae.

Even now.

Sacrificing thousands of miles to kill the ghosts lurking around the village can be exchanged for the safety of the entire village and travelers, so she designed the innocent little girl without hesitation, and used her as a bait to lure away the ghosts who could not resist the temptation of thin blood. come out.

But she still failed, because there were more than one ghost lurking around the village.

The humanoid monster took two steps forward, and Hinata suddenly felt heart palpitations.She raised her head, looked at the ghost with the bright firelight around her, and saw her own reflection in the other's bright red eyes.

"Are you right?" asked the monster, "Can 'happiness' at the expense of a few people really be called 'happiness'?"

Slaying ghosts is just a result. The real purpose is to protect people who may be killed in the future from the hands of ghosts, and for this reason, they will not hesitate to sacrifice the few "innocents" in front of them.

It was obviously well planned.

Atsushi Hinata is not sure that she can save Chisato from the ghost alone, so she pulls Yoshiyuki Tomioka into the mountain with her.In order to reach the little girl as quickly as possible, she even stayed a little further inward from the door of the wooden house.

She thought her plan was foolproof.

Kill the ghosts lurking here with the highest efficiency, and try your best to bring Qianli back.

but why?

There are two ghosts around the village, they kill one and they feel that the matter is over, even Giyuu Tomioka relaxes, so what greets the ghost hunters is a sea of ​​flames that devours everything and corpses all over the ground.

What went wrong?

Is your choice really okay?

If I'm right, why didn't things develop in the direction I expected?

"Why are you going to Yoshihara? Why didn't you stay with Butterfly Kanae? Why did you leave the village to 'kill ghosts'?" The monster smiled and took a step forward, "Sister Hinata, why do you always Are you doing something wrong?"

Yes.

If she stayed one more night, even if it was only one night, the victims would become a family of six, and she could die with her family instead of living alone.

If he stays with Butterfly Chanae, even if he can't defeat that ghost, he can at least die with Butterfly Chanae instead of existing in the world as an unqualified "ghost hunter" like now.

If I hadn't left the village, maybe other travelers would have been killed, but the people in this village would have survived.

Wrong, all wrong.

"Admit it, as soon as I enter Hinata," the humanoid ghost stretched out its hand, and its cold paws stuck to the side of the girl's face, "You are wrong, you were wrong from the beginning." She is wrong, that's why she is like this pain.

"But...do you know?" The girl didn't push the monster's hand away, she raised her head and smiled like she was crying, "I'm just a human being, and human beings can't be absolutely right. We make mistakes all the time, and regret them all the time. But that's not why we stopped!"

The ghost froze for a moment.

"I... Honestly, I'm very happy," she lowered her body slightly, and assumed an attacking posture, "It's great to see you again, Giyuu, it's my sister who is sorry for you—but one of the five corpses in the family It's too good of you not to be."

The breath of thunder, the shape of one, the flash of a thunderbolt.

In the golden knife light, the monster's head detached from its body, and fell to the ground with a "gudong".

Killed it.

So easily.

Just like killing ghosts so many times before.

"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh—"

The girl knelt down on the ground as if exhausted, opened her mouth, and let out a heart-piercing roar.

Suspicion

Yuya Ubuyashiki lowered his head slightly.

A girl with black hair and red eyes sat on the tatami in front of the man.

In order to show respect to the protagonist of the Demon Slayer Squad, Ichiri Hinata took the initiative to remove the Hinata sword.The girl who lost her weapon looked like a small animal whose thorns had been pulled out of its body, looking soft and harmless.

... If the character is not so difficult to deal with.

The lord felt a subtle anguish.

As soon as Hinata bowed her head, from Yoya Shiki's perspective, she could only see the curls on the top of her head.

"I have heard the details from the crow's report," the man stared at the girl condescendingly, his voice was so gentle that it made people dizzy, "About your behavior of involving ordinary people in danger, It will be discussed at the meeting later, but this time I called you over to ask about something else."

Once Ryu Hinata didn't look up, her voice seemed to relax a bit.

"If you want to ask Yi—about my brother, unfortunately, I don't know the inside story very well."

Probably to distinguish it from Suizhu Tomioka Yoshiyuki, or feel that the family members who have become ghosts are not suitable to use the same name as the teammates of the Ghost Killing Team. The girl swallowed those syllables consciously and changed it to a smoother one. statement.

Hinata is always very persistent in strange places.

"I know, because Hinata left home when he was very young." Yoya Miyayashiki was not at all surprised by the girl's answer, "What I want to ask is what happened after that... Why do you treat that ghost?" Will there be any clues?"

Everything in the village is like a trap designed in advance. Even if the ghost chooses to massacre the village in a rage when he finds out that his companion has been killed by a ghost hunter, it is unrealistic to kill everyone in such a short period of time. of.

In other words, the actions of ghosts should start after they go up the mountain as soon as the sun sets.

The person who designed this trap knows Ichiri Hyuga far better than anyone expected. He can accurately judge which method Ichiri Hyuga will choose to solve the troubles he is facing, and on this basis make the most efficient reaction.

It doesn't seem like something a lower-level ghost can do.

The Oni who was beheaded by Ikiryuga did have a mind of his own, but no one thought it was that strong.

"The only one who can turn a person into a ghost is Mumai Tsuji." The black-haired girl raised her head slightly, her voice was calm, Yoya Ubuyashiki was not sure if she was sad, "I thought it was the one who attacked my family Humans are ordinary ghosts... I didn't expect it to be Wu Mi."

The protagonist of the Ghost Killing Squad didn't speak. He wanted to comfort the person in front of him, but he didn't know how to do so.

In fact, Hinata does not need comfort from others, if she needed it, she would not appear here at all.

"When I came home, I saw five dead bones, so I preconceived that all my family members were there." The voice of the girl with black hair and red pupils gradually became louder, and she seemed to be laughing. Yi, is it my younger brother who ate a certain child?"

It is quite normal to lose one or two children in a village in the deep mountains. The terrain of a small isolated village is complicated, and it is possible to run into danger if you take a few steps outside the village.Presumably, the child's family did not find the body, so they believed that the child was taken away by wild animals.

When a dead person enters the house, it is a haunted house in the eyes of the villagers, and no one will take the initiative to go to the haunted house.

"What I don't understand is, who would deliberately use my brother to set up this situation."

It is not uncommon for a boy who turned into a ghost to escape to other villages. According to Qianli, the first ghost drawn out by Hinata with his thin blood may be the first missing herb picker.

No one has ever seen the body of the herbal picker. He may not have died, but turned into a ghost.

But why did Guiwu Tsuji Wumi turn the herb picker into a ghost?

With so many people coming and going, and the two ghosts staying in that village for such a long time, how could Wu Mi be sure that the ghost hunter who passed by the village was Yirui Hinata and not someone else?

Too coincidental.

So much so that it was so coincidental that Hinata didn't want to believe that this was a trap.

Besides, Iryu Hinata thought that he didn't have the qualifications to be so carefully designed by others.Unlike the Zhus, she is just an ordinary second-class team member with no outstanding achievements, and there are a lot of messy old accounts behind her.

"You are indeed not a 'pillar'," Ubayashiki Yoya said softly like a teacher explaining difficult problems, "but in the eyes of ghosts, there is no difference between you and a 'pillar'."

The criteria for the selection of the ghost killing team are relatively complicated, but ghosts do not need such a complicated judgment process when judging whether a ghost hunter is a threat - they have the same strength as Zhu, and they will not let go of anyone they see. Oni, these two points alone are enough for Oni Wu Tsuji to include Ichiryu Hinata on the hunting list.

Maybe it was just an accident that her brother turned into a ghost, but what she experienced in the village was not.

In Onimai Tsuji's eyes, "Hunting One Into Hyuga" and "Hunting the Pillars of the Demon Slayer Team" are matters of equal priority.

That guy is very afraid of death, and it is absolutely impossible to let a powerful ghost hunter stay in the world.

"Even if you say so..."

"In short, Hinata, you are being targeted now." Yoya Ubuyashiki interrupted the girl, "The one brought back by you and Giyuu
