Demon Slayer: Upper 0 seems to be a waste

Chapter 142 Chapter 321, ghosts arrest people

It was a quiet night, the moon was bright and the sky was cloudless. It was a beautiful day. The air was fresh and the forest was silent, with only the sound of running water. It was a beautiful night.

If the ghost hunters who rushed into this forest were not the ones holding the hilt of their knives tightly, everything might have seemed better, both for the party in charge of the pursuit and the party being hunted.

This is a perfect night for a leisurely stroll, under the moonlight, stretching your legs, leisurely and comfortable, chatting with your companions, sharing some unimportant past events, and finding something to eat if you are hungry.

It is a pity that two groups with the same idea met on such a night.

So no one's dream came true.

The ghost hunters worked in perfect harmony, keeping a vigilant eye on their surroundings as they pressed forward step by step, trying to drive the evil ghosts that had recently harmed the nearby villages out of the forest. The encirclement became smaller and smaller, but they still found nothing, until they surrounded the dilapidated temple on the top of the mountain. The dilapidated temple had long been deserted, and in front of the door that creaked in the wind stood an exquisite pot, placed abruptly in the middle of the open space, looking out of place with everything around it.

The ghost hunters exchanged glances cautiously, some moved closer to observe and test, some retreated to be on guard and ambush, and some just stayed where they were, ready to provide support at any time.

The trapped 'prey' with nowhere to escape revealed its true form from the pot under the threat of swords, and the situation was reversed, and the status of hunter and prey was exchanged in an instant.

"Welcome—it's hard for everyone to come all this way—and I feel guilty for not being well prepared—"

His tone was as natural as that of a shop owner, and even the movement of rubbing the baby's hands was so natural. His voice was full of smiles and could even be described as gentle.

"Yes, it's the upper rank!"

"Why is there a Upper String here?!"

"Let Crow out! Let Zhu come and help!"

It only took a moment for the noise to go from silence. The crows spread their wings from the branches, making noisy calls and flapping their wings to fly away. It was a signal for help, but Yuhu didn't care. In fact, he was eager to try his hand at a few pillars. If he could get rid of a few more pillars, Muzan would reward him.

What's more, he is not here alone now.

"Back, back, be careful! This is an upper-rank demon! It's different from those ordinary demons!"

This is probably what the saying "a newborn calf is not afraid of a tiger" means.

In fact, the stronger the ghost swordsman is, the more accurate his assessment will be when facing a more powerful ghost. The victory or defeat can actually be sensed the moment they face each other, but if the gap between the two is too large, misunderstandings like this will arise.

"Even though he's very strong, I might still have a chance."

This kind of lucky mentality always exists among those who are not strong enough but not the weakest, but Yuhu does not hate such people. After all, who would hate dinner that jumps into their mouth on its own?

"Since you have confidence... then give it a try."

Yu Hu issued a provocation. The difference in numbers and the not-so-obvious pressure from his figures, everything seemed to give the ghost hunters some false confidence.

There were so many of us, and he was just one... He might be an Upper Rank, but only an Upper Rank Five... He looked a bit scary, but he wasn't very big, and his movements seemed clumsy, and we even forced him into a corner...

He didn't need to guess what such thoughts and ideas were; he had seen too many idiots like that.

But like he said, he doesn't hate snacks.

This was a victory without any suspense. The only problem was that Yuhu was too playful, and the Demon Slayer Corps sent a lot of people this time.

"Hey...how long are you going to play? I still have to go to the river."

The boy's voice came from above, and the battlefield froze for a moment. Yu Hu was the first to stop. Although he always complained that Ling Guang had no ability to appreciate art, it had to be said that the boy himself was actually very suitable to become a work of art.

The high moon is the light source, and the night sky, which was originally dark but now appears deep blue after being illuminated by the moonlight, is the background. The stars dot the curtain. The young boy complains in a childish, plain and lazy voice, looking down from above but with a casual attitude. He just sits there, leaning on the eaves, shaking his legs in the air.

In the shadow created by the backlight, the pair of blue eyes lit up, contrasting with the brightness of the moon, yet echoing the starry sky in the distance.

As beautiful as a painting.

Lin Guang also said that his appearance was grand, but this kid was much more exaggerated than him when he put on airs. I don’t know who he learned this from, but he does have some skills.

"child?"

I don't know who asked the question first, and everyone's attention was drawn to it.

Judging from his body shape, he is undoubtedly a child, and based on his voice, he is a boy, but his glowing eyes prove that he is not human.

"The ghost is going to start catching people——3——"

The boy sitting on the eaves raised his hand, held up three fingers, and a harmless smile appeared on his face.

"Upper, upper rank! Another upper rank! Is this true?!"

"How is it possible! Such a young child, it's impossible..."

"Upper Rank, Upper Rank Zero... How is it possible! How could he appear here?!"

The swordsmen were shouting at each other, and for a moment no one realized the seriousness of the situation in this chaotic situation.

"2--"

The boy's voice interrupted the quarrel. His calm and gentle tone carried the most terrifying sense of oppression. No one knew what was going on, but everyone knew that the so-called 'catch someone' could not really be just a game. Even if it was, it was a game with lives at stake.

"Run!"

No one knew who screamed first, but the silly calf finally realized that the tiger in front of them was not something they could fight against, so it turned into a confused lamb, bleating and started running around.

“1—0.”

The last finger was raised and pointed forward, counting the number of people from far to near. The ghost hunters pointed by the finger fell into endless darkness in the next second, losing their balance and stumbling.

It might take some time to deal with a group of ghost hunters, but how difficult is it to catch a blind man?

When the last person was called, Lingguang retracted his fingers and clapped his hands together.

"What a shame—I won!"

The young male voice was filled with unconcealable joy, and he even hummed a song with joy. But for the ghost hunters groping in the darkness, the humming from high to low and from far to near was like a funeral song sending them to the other side of death.

"What fun can I have if you play with me like this?"

Yuhu didn't hate Lingguang's help. After all, his prey was still healthy and even easier to replenish. He was just looking for something to provoke the boy. Lingguang looked at him with his head tilted, as if he was unaware of the malice, or as if he was deliberately pretending to be stupid.

"Really? I'm so sorry, I'll let you play next time—"

Lin Guang smiled cheerfully, but no matter how Yu Hu looked at it, that smile didn't seem well-intentioned. Instead, it looked like a bastard with bad intentions was provoking him.

The ghost hunters lying on the ground were kicked one by one to the side of the jade pot, and the blood ghost spell was lifted after that. But after they escaped from the darkness, what they faced was a pot falling from the sky and the hell it brought.

“It’s great that we can go to the river now.”

The last thing the ghost could hear was the boy's innocent and happy voice.
