Chapter 88 The Most Gentle Person so Far

In the arena, after the young ghost's head was thrown away, the spider threads extending from his fingers also dissipated, and Nezuko fell from midair.

Tanjiro also fell to the ground due to physical exhaustion and the sequelae of a sudden change of breathing method. He gasped rapidly, with a strong bloody smell spreading from his mouth.

In desperation, what he used was the Kagura dance that his father taught him when he was a child, which he saw in the revolving lantern near death.

Although he doesn't know why Kagura Wu was able to transform into a sword skill, he somehow defeated this unprecedented enemy and regained his sister——

The moment he had such an idea, a smell full of blood and anger penetrated into his nose like quicksilver, making his body stiff instantly.

"It's really infuriating...! Do you think you have defeated me? I didn't cut off my neck just now, but I cut it off with my own silk thread!"

The severed body of the young ghost climbed up from the ground, and the head hung by the spider silk was reattached to its neck.

Different from the previous attitude of being generous and not caring, the anger that was visible to the naked eye appeared on his face after his head was almost cut off, and his eyes released a biting murderous intent towards Tanjiro.

"The same goes for the flame just now. Why was I the only one who was attacked, but you didn't have anything to do? Is your sister deliberately distinguishing the difference between me and you? Ahhh! It really makes me unhappy! I decided, I'm going to kill you brother and sister together here, there is no need for fetters or anything like that!"

The young ghost seemed to be angry from embarrassment for some reason. He gathered the spider silk extending from his five fingers into his palm, and condensed it into a silk cocoon that swirled like a whirlpool and was smooth like a jade plate.

"Blood Ghost Art Reticle Rotation!"

The other party drank like this, and launched the cocoon of spider silk in his hand towards Tanjiro who was trying to regain his spirit on the ground.

Already completely exhausted, with injuries all over his body, and severely affected heart and lung functions, Tanjiro has lost all possibility of resistance. As long as this shot falls on him, his body will be torn apart without hindrance broken.

"Boom!"

In an instant, a roar like a thunderbolt from the blue resounded through the dense forest.

Followed by several lightning slashes intertwined like dragons sputtering from the forest, cutting the entwined cocoon of spider silk in an instant with a destructive momentum like shredding paper.

"Varied--!?"

Before the young ghost realized what happened, he was hit by the aftermath of the slash. His body was torn into five or six parts like a piece of cloth, and fell to the ground.

"sand--"

"sand--"

The sound of footsteps trampling on the muddy ground on the shoe surface reached the ears of Tanjiro, Nezuko, and the young ghost who were on the ground.

Under the moonlight, the figure of a boy in his early ten years came out from the forest with dense tree shadows, presenting his appearance in Tanjirou's eyes.

"... Lucia Sauce?"

The expression on Tanjirou's face was very shocked, he really didn't expect that Lucia, who had just saved the lives of their brother and sister ten days ago, would appear in the Spider Mountain again and save him from Twelve Ghost Moon's hands Life.

"Damn! Who!"

The young ghost glued his body together again with silk threads, and the anger visible to the naked eye appeared on his face, and his face was a little distorted.

Because he was not directly slashed by the He Dao, but was hit by the lightning-like sword slash, his resilience was not sealed, and the young ghost was able to put his body back together again, and once again stood in front of Liu Xia .

"I'm Twelve Ghost Moons! What are you one by one——"

next moment,

Before he could finish speaking, a saber light flashed across the forest, as swift as thunder and as steady as the surface of water.

Before the young ghost came back to his senses, his vision suddenly spun, and then he felt pain from his body and head as if he was being burned by the sun.

Not even sword skills, just a random slash, as the Twelve Ghost Moon, he was cut off without the power to resist.

It looked exactly the same as the spider ghost that Liu Xia had killed before, and Twelve Ghost Moon's identity was almost the same as that of the weak alien ghost, leaving no value at all.

Liu Xia didn't even pull out the second saber, she simply returned the saber to its sheath.

The young ghost with only his body left in front of him didn't know what kind of thoughts came into his mind. He swayed and wanted to walk in the direction of Tanjirou and Nezuko, but after taking two steps, his legs disappeared. , could only lie on the ground, and crawled towards Tanjiro's direction.

Liu Xia glanced at the body crawling on the ground, then at the half-disappeared head beside her, and put her hand on the handle of the knife again.

"Wait...wait a minute, Lucia sauce!"

Seemingly seeing Liu Xia's intention to draw his sword to destroy the corpse, Tanjirou who was lying on the ground hurriedly said, "That kid has no malicious intentions... I can smell sadness from him."

Tanjirou has a keen sense of smell that can smell the other person's emotions, although Luca feels that this has actually surpassed the level of smell, and it is considered a special ability.

He smelled sadness from this ghost, that's why he interrupted Liu Xia's movements, and even took the initiative to stretch out his hand towards the body of the young ghost that had already started to dissipate.

What should this behavior be called?

gentle?

Lucia looked at Tanjirou as if he was an elder brother, half-embracing Nezuko and the young ghost's body together, and raised her eyebrows slightly, "Are you sympathizing with the ghost? Why is this behavior necessary?"

"Ghosts were also human beings before they were alive."

Tanjiro looked at the young oni's gradually dissipating body with very gentle eyes, "Of course I know that oni is the enemy of human beings, and I will not be soft when facing ghosts, but ghosts were once human beings, and they also have a past as humans. I also have to become a ghost, so I won't insult them."

It's not like Liu Xia has never seen someone with a gentle personality.

But Tanjiro was by far the most gentle of all he'd met.

But this behavior is still meaningless.

Lucia understood Tanjirou's intentions, and she didn't agree with Tanjirou's behavior in her heart, but she didn't intend to express her negation either.

Human life is inherently wandering between meaningful and meaningless, and it is impossible for people to pursue meaningful things all the time. Lucia understands this, so he never demands others.

"as you like."

In the end, Liu Xia didn't comment on his thoughts, and let him exude her gentle personality.

But the next moment, another uninvited guest arrived here with a light and swift figure, and stabbed the poisoned rapier mercilessly at Nezuko in Tanjirou's arms on the ground.
