Chapter 52: Resisting Destiny

The Professor did not exaggerate; he truly possessed a special talent. It was not merely the uniqueness of being a 【Chosen One】; what 【Blue Sky】 had valued from the start was his keenness for the plots of various anime, movies, and television shows.

In this regard, he seemed to naturally possess a unique comprehension.

The 【Blue Spider Lily】 is, by nature, the greatest hidden treasure for Reincarnators entering this world; if used properly, one could obtain considerable benefits and convenience from Kibutsuji Muzan.

Of course, given Muzan's 【scum】 nature, if you use it improperly, you might also suffer a round of torture.

But at present, this convenient Intelligence has clearly already been utilized by those two Reincarnators who joined the Muzan Faction.

The Professor knows this and has immediately initiated his own counter-measures.

The unique Tese of the 【Blue Spider Lily】 (it only blooms during the day) dictates that this item cannot be picked by Ghosts.

Excluding the combat power of the Ghosts, the strength of the Muzan Faction is actually far lower than that of his own Demon Slayer Corps side.

By pointing this out now, the Professor can not only pull the rug out from under them, using the power of the 【Demon Slayer Corps】 and the Ubuyashiki Clan to cut off the enemy faction's opportunity to strengthen Muzan and gain Reputation in advance.

He can also use this Intelligence to obtain a massive amount of faction Reputation.

More importantly, the Professor is currently in urgent need of an event to keep the powerful combat strength of Himejima Gyoumei by his side, and to find an enemy to divert the attention of "Tao Baibai".

Whether the other party's words just now were a malicious joke or not, they made him afraid to appear in the other party's field of vision alone again.

Since the opposing factions have such terrifying monsters, and he does not want to become bait, he can only find an equally plump enemy.

Bai Cangshu stood in the crowd, following the procession; it seemed the Demon Slayer Corps was indeed quite knowledgeable about the situation in the mountains and towns across the various regions, and after careful consultation with the Professor, they determined the general area.

Bai Cangshu knew that the information from the original work could be used to infer the distance between the location of Tanjiro's family and Sayagiri Mountain, given the Demon Slayer Corps' current concealment in the mountains and the influence of the Ubuyashiki Clan.

Finding their specific location was not impossible.

Likewise, since his side could find it, then Kibutsuji Muzan, who now had government support, could naturally find it as well.

This was a race.

Moreover, Bai Cangshu suddenly remembered one thing.

The so-called 【Singularity】, as explained by the space, is a special fate node, marking a special change in the world that will lead the world toward a new branch.

He killed Tao Baibai in the Dragon Ball World, which would cause a butterfly effect of changes in a series of subsequent events related to Tao Baibai.

The world would undergo changes, resulting in a large amount of information.

Therefore, this kind of 【Singularity】 has a high enough value.

But often, characters who can have a huge impact on the world are not necessarily powerful, for example... Tanjiro's family at this moment.

"Speaking of which, Tanjiro's family is still alive and well at this moment, right?"

Bai Cangshu spoke; it sounded abrupt and aimless, like an opening line for casual chatter between acquaintances. Kochou Kanae and Himejima Gyoumei had no reaction.

But the several Reincarnators in the team at this moment were all sharp.

They understood Bai Cangshu's implication in an instant.

Liu Qi frowned but did not speak, while Elizabeth and Vincent were very tempted.

In fact, aside from fearing Bai Cangshu's murderous nature, Elizabeth was actually quite satisfied with the gains from this mission; things like Singularities are often only obtained in a very small number of missions.

Killing an ordinary person like a Left Minister and getting one Singularity was already a huge stroke of luck.

Seeing that this "murder star" had ideas again, she was also somewhat tempted; she had actually thought before that if she could kill the world's protagonist, no matter what, the Singularity grade shouldn't be too low.

Bai Cangshu took in the expressions of the few, but he actually didn't have much intention of carrying it out.

He knew that if 【Singularities】 could be harvested so easily, such things would not seem so precious. Bai Cangshu looked at the Professor in front; sure enough, the other party's Footwork slowed down, and his voice appeared in the ears of the few out of thin air again.

Bai Cangshu guessed that this Professor must be a Reincarnator specialized in 【Spirit】, or possessed some special ability to use skills similar to 【Telepathy】 or 【Psychic Scan】.

This could also explain why the combat power of the reserve candidate valued by the powerful 【Blue Sky】 was so weak.

Reincarnators with this kind of attribute are indeed very weak in the early stages when their abilities are lacking in all aspects.

"I advise you not to have such thoughts."

"Even you, Mr. Tao Baibai, might not necessarily be able to bear the backlash brought about by that level of mutation."

"Wanting to kill the Child of the World is to be an enemy of the World Will. I am certain that when you strike at the current Tanjiro, an unimaginable upheaval will inevitably occur."

"Whether it is a passing swordsman suddenly wanting to draw his sword to save someone, or some Sun-Breathing swordsman who doesn't exist at this moment appearing, or even the sky changing and a meteorite falling, I wouldn't be surprised."

"The weaker the protagonist is, the more intense the Destiny of 【Must Be Able to Survive】 accompanies them."

"Being an enemy of Destiny, Mr. Tao Baibai, are you prepared?"

The Professor's words made the few fall silent.

Bai Cangshu revealed a satisfied smile; he had obtained the Intelligence he wanted.

He had never intended to do such a thing; he had killed many people in the Infinite Dimensional Space, not because he liked killing.

What he liked was the tension that made his heart beat more intensely, the pleasure of that slaughter.

Slaughtering weak people who had no ability to resist was merely bullying those who were already weak.

Bai Cangshu did not even realize that he actually had a terrifying Arrogance in his bones.

Whether it was facing the attack of Joker Evans and choosing to fight him one-on-one instead of contacting Song Xian, or at this very moment.

He had an Arrogance that looked down on others from the depths of his Soul.

The Professor turned back, and beneath his black-rimmed glasses, his eyes swept over Bai Cangshu with a hint of a different meaning.

"Mr. Tao Baibai, let me give you one more piece of Intelligence."

"In the Infinite Dimensional Space, there are not only human Reincarnators like us from the real world..."

"Legend has it that in this space, there exists an organization called the 【Black King Society】; it is a special Reincarnator team Gathering composed of kings who have had their entire worlds stolen. Their only goal... is to kill all Reincarnators who have committed evil acts."

Bai Cangshu clicked his tongue; he glanced at the others from the corner of his eye, and it seemed none of them had heard it, realizing this was the Professor's warning to him.

Black King Society... listening to the Professor's Description, it seems to be a Reincarnator team composed of powerful Plot Characters? Interesting... — 【Hunter】's face was pale, his whole body trembling, his chest heaving violently, but the air he could suck into his lungs was becoming less and less.

He looked at the several figures in front of him, the fear in his heart growing more and more intense.

"Are you afraid?"

"Rest assured, I won't eat you."

Hair the color of pure, unblemished white oak, and the characters for "Upper Rank" "Two" clearly revealed within his seven-colored irises.

Why on earth does a "Paper" grade Reincarnator like himself have to encounter such a situation, damn it!

But if he wants to survive, he must...
