Chapter 2338 Better
Life is the most precious, so choosing to give up life for the sake of justice under free will is a greater thing. It takes great courage to entrust your life to others and give others the credit for achieving justice.
The Flame Pillar and the Water Pillar are willing to gamble their lives on the insignificant possibility. They believe in Tanjiro, even though he is now unconscious.
They have never fought so hard, but they will not give up. The markings have raised their strength to a higher level, but facing the Upper String 3 who has taken medicine, they still have to make the worst plan.
At this time, the Upper String 3 is getting more and more crazy and is about to break through the limit, but there seems to be a force in his body that hopes he will not fall into the ghost way completely.
The phantom of his master and fiancée is calling him.
The plot killing seems to be coming. In the original work, the Upper String 3 and the Upper String 1 are both plot killings. In the setting, the neck of the demon is a weakness, but if the demon is obsessed, the weakness of the neck can be overcome, such as Muzan Kibutsuji is not afraid of being beheaded. Upper String 3 and Upper String 1 were both beheaded but not dead, but unfortunately they were killed in the end. They were not killed by the demon hunters but by themselves.
Upper String 3 was going to break through the limit, but he saw the phantom of his master and fiancée, and then died. Upper String 1 could have overcome his weaknesses, but he saw his ugly appearance reflected in the blade and remembered his pride as a samurai, so he died.
Samurai pride? Why didn't Upper String 1 think about the pride of a samurai when he betrayed humans? It was just because he became ugly that he remembered his pride. It was too forced. And becoming ugly is not necessarily permanent. Just look at Muzan Kibutsuji and you will know that his form is constantly changing. He can be big or small, male or female. In other words, as long as he is not afraid of being beheaded, the form of a demon can change. Besides, if you have become a demon, what is the point of being entangled in the ugliness and beauty of humans?
So it is barely understandable that Upper String 3 was killed by the plot, but it is too much to be killed by the plot. A guy who would do anything for power would regret and seek death because he became ugly. His character collapsed.
"You ghosts are really something. You are dead, but you still can't let go of the people in the world of the living."
"It's because of love." Ji Guoyuan thought to himself, wasn't he also pulled back to the world of the living by Duran? What qualifications does he have to say about the people in the underworld? "If it wasn't love, who would wait for a hundred years? Before Upper String Three turned bad, he must have been a good person."
"I can't say he was good, I can only say he met certain standards. Because of the misfortune of his original family, he made mistakes, but after meeting his master, he turned over a new leaf, concentrated on martial arts, and fell in love. But because his master and fiancée were poisoned to death, he killed the kendo hall that he had always hated, and finally became a ghost. After becoming a ghost, he didn't eat women, but only strong men, and kept challenging ghosts, and finally became Upper String Three, but it was a pity that he didn't have time to defeat Two before he arrived at this battlefield." Duran summarized his life.
"So? Master, what do you want to do?"
The situation on the battlefield changed at this time. The plan of the Flame Pillar and the Water Pillar succeeded. Although it was risky, Tanjiro did not let them down. The three striped warriors worked together and risked their lives to finally cut off Upper String 3's neck under absolute trust.
The obsession prevented Upper String 3 from dying immediately. He wanted to continue fighting and continue to take revenge on humans. But the phantoms of his master and lover wanted to stop him.
The three ghost hunters were already at their limit. They needed to rest and take a breath. If they continued to fight, they would surely die.
He died but did not fall, because Upper String 3 had too many regrets, too much resentment, and too much anger in his life. Even his parents did not care about him. They only cared about the so-called face and did not care whether they were hungry or not.
At the beginning, Upper String 3 did not choose animality by himself. He also wanted to choose sociality, but everyone was forcing him, even his parents. But just when he completely turned to animality, his master and fiancée pulled him and pulled him to sociality. Once they died, Upper String 3 completely slid into animality.
If the two of them can pull once, they can pull a second time. Projected from Sanduhe to the world of the living, they want to pull San again.
"They will succeed." Jiguo Yuanyi said.
"Yes, but that will only make it worse, not better." Duran said that he came to make the world a better place.
As soon as Duran finished speaking, he was already on the battlefield. The headless ghost was still moving, and his fighting spirit was still rising.
"Mage?!" Everyone was surprised to find that the mage was also in the Infinite City. What was he doing here?
"Although the neck is the weakness of the ghost, some ghosts can overcome this weakness. The ghost ancestor you are going to deal with is not afraid of having his head chopped off, he is only afraid of the sun." Duran said: "Now Upper String Three is also going to cross this limit and become a real ghost."
"You have to do something." The water pillar said.
"Don't worry, I won't come here in vain." "This man needs to atone for his sins."
The rare reunion was broken by Duran. The phantom in front of Upper String 3 disappeared, and his fighting spirit became completely violent. Everything was like a replay of history. The master and lover were taken away in front of him, and Upper String 3 could do nothing.
"What did you do?" Upper String 3's fighting spirit doubled and was still increasing. It was already difficult to fight, but now it was completely impossible to fight.
Another head grew out of his neck, staring at Duran, because he knew that it was Duran who had just fought off his master and lover who came to pick him up: "You deserve to die?!" He once again suffered the pain of loss, and now he just wanted to kill people.
Duran picked up the ghost head in his hand: "Don't talk about life and death, I'm going to give you a task, you have to use the rest of your ghost life to be loyal." Nezuko wants to be the ancestor of ghosts, she needs a thug: "If you want, I can arrange for you to meet your fiancée every Qixi Festival in the future. Of course, if you want, you can also meet your master by the way, if you are not afraid of being disturbed on the date."
"?!" Upper String Three said what is this condition? Does he look like a cowherd?
"It seems you don't understand yet. You have done too many evil things, so you can't die yet."
"Then I will kill you."
"Haha." Duran waved his hand, and the head in his hand suddenly opened its eyes, and a new soul appeared in it: "There is already a soul that looks exactly like you in this head. If you refuse, I will crush this head now and send the soul inside to see your lover. At that time, they can live together in the underworld, and your head will be green." "I won't kill you, but I can make you feel worse than death. The people in the kendo hall will take away your lover's life, and I can take away her soul."
The three ghost hunters said that the wizard is more like an evil ghost, so bad that he doesn't even let ghosts go.
"If you accept the conditions, you can date one day a year. If you don't accept it, you can watch your fiancée with others." Duran smiled cunningly, and he was sure, as if he knew that the other party would not refuse.
"Do you think I really care? Now that I have overcome my weaknesses and I am a complete ghost, do you think I still care about a dead woman?"
"If you don't care, I will send this imposter down." Duran pretended to blow his head off.
"Wait!" Upper String 3 found that he still cared, and he still wanted to see his fiancée: "I pledge my loyalty to you."
"It's not me, you wait, she will appear soon and establish a new order of people and ghosts, and she is the one you should be loyal to." Duran said.
Tanjiro was stunned, he thought of his missing sister, he had looked for his sister during this period, but he felt that his sister was safe now, so he was at ease with the special training. Now he felt that his sister was by the side of the wizard, and the wizard also arranged for his sister to do things.
