Chapter 184 Death of Shadow Demon

The Shadow Demon was a two-star monster that Qin Shi encountered during the trial in the secret forest.

At that time, although he defeated the undercover agent from the Hundred Ghosts Group, he still let the other party summon the Shadow Demon from the huge tomb.

Later, Principal Bai and Teacher Qingzhi entered the forest and arrested the Shadow Demon.

"So it was sent here?"

Qin Shi immediately figured it out.

The undercover agent of the Hundred Ghosts Group had been annihilated, and there was no way to get the purpose of his undercover.

The remaining monster became the only key.

"The first thing we did to this Shadow Demon was torture."

The old man opened the door of the iron prison.

"But no matter how we tortured it, this Shadow Demon really didn't seem to know the purpose of its appearance here."

"So, in the second step, I searched its soul."

Speaking of soul searching, Qin Shi suddenly remembered that after he defeated Su Xiaoxiao in Linhai City.

Because the Su family father and daughter could not get key information from torture, they were sent to Push City by Senior Sister Lin Long for soul searching.

Soul search, as the name implies, is to search the soul. This is the most violent torture method, which can directly search for information that the target has seen.

But because it is a torture of the soul, not only is the process painful, but it is also easy to turn into a vegetable after the soul search.

"I have used soul search on this shadow demon many times, but every time there is only a blank in its soul, and nothing can be seen at all, just like a dead thing."

"Before the soul search, the performance of this shadow demon is no different from that of a normal monster."

Old Shi said slowly.

"Based on this situation, it is speculated that although this monster still has consciousness, this consciousness is like being controlled by someone, and it will freeze under certain conditions."

"Combined with the fact that it is a spiritual object of a member of the Hundred Demons Group, only one conclusion can be drawn."

Principal Bai looked serious.

"This monster was given blood by the ghost king of the Hundred Demons Group."

Qin Shi was shocked.

He knew that the inheritance of the ghost king of the Hundred Demons Group was Muzan Kibutsuji in Demon Slayer.

By giving your blood to others, you can turn others into "ghosts".

And a specific curse can be cast in the blood.

For example, in the anime Demon Slayer, the ghosts under the command will activate the "curse" to destroy themselves if they say the name of the Demon King.

"This shadow demon is likely to be cursed with a soul search, and its soul will become empty."

"To verify this, I let this shadow demon shine in the sun and found that it was extremely afraid of the sun, which means that the guess is very likely to be true."

Principal Bai nodded.

"But the strange thing is that this afternoon, this shadow demon suddenly... died!"

Old Shi sighed.

"My Push City belongs to a secret realm, isolated from the outside world."

"Therefore, even if this shadow demon has been given blood by the Demon King, the Demon King has the power to control it in a life-and-death battle."

"But in this Push City, the Demon King still cannot use his power. This has been tested on other members of the Hundred Demons Group who have been captured."

Qingzhi's expression also became serious.

"According to the intelligence the academy had obtained before, if the ghost king wanted to kill the person he gave blood to, he must be close enough and in the same space."

"But few people know the location of the city, and the city belongs to a secret space, which is not in the same space as the outside world. The ghost king cannot control the death of this shadow demon."

"But it just died like this, without any signs, suddenly."

Old Shi frowned.

"So far, no useful information has been obtained."

Qin Shi supported his head with his hands and asked a question.

"The most critical reason is why the shadow demon died at this time."

"Teacher Qingzhi, is today a special day?"

Teacher Qingzhi thought for a while.

"Nothing special... By the way, today is the deadline for freshmen to enroll."

Seeing Qin Shi's puzzled face, Teacher Qingzhi explained in detail.

"Although the enrollment is on the same day every year, not all students can enroll immediately after enrollment."

"Some students may postpone enrollment due to physical reasons, and some students may postpone enrollment due to family reasons."

"And today is the deadline for enrollment, and all new students must report before this."

Qin Shi was stunned.

"That is to say, all new students today, regardless of any special circumstances before, have come to school?"

Teacher Qingzhi nodded.

"You can say that."

After listening to Qingzhi's words, Qin Shi instantly thought of a possibility.

"Teacher, do you know the basic information of all new students? Especially the inheritance information."

Qingzhi smiled slightly and patted his chest.

"Of course, I am the director of the admissions office. Our college has only a little over a thousand new students a year, and I remember all the basic information in my mind."

"Is there anyone who has inherited the Demon Slayer legacy?"

Qin Shi continued to ask.

"There are seven people, and your roommate Li Shanyi is one of them."

Teacher Qingzhi said affirmatively.

"Then... is there a legacy of Tanjiro Kamado or Nezuko Kamado?"

Qin Shi felt that he was about to get the answer.

"Why are you asking this?"

Although confused, Qing Zhi teacher still answered.

"There is no legacy of Tanjiro Kamado, but there is a legacy of Nezuko Kamado."

"It's a girl in teacher Arnold's class."

"Is there anything special about her inheritance?"

The people in this world rely on the inheritance book to obtain inheritance information, and they don't know that Tanjiro Kamado and Nezuko Kamado are the main characters in Demon Slayer.

Moreover, due to the incomplete inheritance book, the inheritance information they obtained is mostly distorted and can only be used as a simple reference.

The mystery has been revealed, and Qin Shi exhaled lightly.

"If I'm not mistaken, this shadow demon is here for the girl who inherited from Nezuko Kamado."

"Many characters in the Demon Slayer world are not fully described in the inheritance book, but I... have heard a rumor."

Because of the lack of the inheritance book, the people will also make up reasonable stories about each inheritance character, and if they are passed on too much, it will become a rumor.

Qin Shi intends to use this statement to cover up the fact that he knows the strangeness of the anime plot.

"It is rumored that in the world of Demon Slayer, all the demons who were given blood by Muzan Kibutsuji are afraid of the sun, except for one person who can move normally in the sun after being given blood."

"That is Nezuko Kamado."

Teacher Qingzhi was shocked, "There is such a rumor!?"

He immediately guessed what Qin Shi meant.

If this rumor is true, then this inheritor of "Nezuko Kamado" is a very important figure for the Hundred Demons Group.

For demons, the sun is the biggest enemy.

And now, they may find a way to no longer be afraid of the sun from the inheritor of "Nezuko Kamado".

At the moment, this
