~7 min read 1,202 words

After helping the Lizard Professor restore his arm, Karl returned to Zhang Manyue's dormitory.

He didn't do much else and went straight to rest.

For the next few days, Karl stayed at Zhang Manyue's place.

Because the TV series Zhang Manyue was filming had a great response, and according to the director, it was on track to break viewership records.

So the crew was already continuing to film.

Karl continued to accompany Zhang Manyue back and forth to the set.

At first, there were some reporters taking candid photos.

Because of the TV series' viewership, Zhang Manyue's popularity had also increased significantly.

However, Karl could turn invisible, and he could truly take Zhang Manyue with him into invisibility.

Those reporters naturally couldn't photograph them.

Demon Slayer World

Not long ago, Tanjiro Kamado, Zenitsu Agatsuma, and Inosuke Hashibira were resting together at a family estate with the Wisteria flower crest.

Because they had joined the chat group a few days ago, and with Zenitsu Agatsuma and the other accompanying him.

Even while recovering from their injuries, it was very lively.

After a period of recuperation, the injuries on their bodies had fully healed.

Now, it was time to set off again.

After bidding farewell to the old grandmother of the Wisteria crest, the group's next destination was Mt. Natagumo, located to the northeast.

On the road, because Inosuke Hashibira lacked much common sense.

Explaining things was quite troublesome, and the three of them were noisy and rowdy.

In the evening.

The three of them could already see their destination ahead.

Mt. Natagumo.

The entire mountain looked quite gloomy, and there seemed to be some kind of ominous presence upon it.

Looking at it from afar, one could feel an inexplicable heaviness.

"Wait!"

Zenitsu Agatsuma suddenly spoke, "Can we wait a moment?"

"Zenitsu."

Tanjiro Kamado looked at him strangely, "What's wrong?"

"I'm scared!"

Zenitsu Agatsuma suddenly sat on the ground, weeping bitterly, "We're almost at the destination, I'm so scared!" "What is this guy doing sitting on the ground?"

"How disgusting!"

Inosuke Hashibira, wearing a boar head mask, was very puzzled.

Clearly, he couldn't understand Zenitsu Agatsuma's actions.

"Mind your own business!"

"You have the nerve to talk about me, boar head."

Zenitsu Agatsuma retorted while crying.

"Uh..."

Tanjiro Kamado was somewhat speechless.

Although he knew Zenitsu Agatsuma's personality had always been like this.

But during the journey so far, he had been fine.

For him to suddenly become like this now was still somewhat surprising.

Zenitsu Agatsuma sat on the ground, pointing at the mountain not far away, "That mountain in front of us, didn't you two feel anything?" The two turned their heads upon hearing this, looking at the peak not far away.

That mountain range was shrouded in darkness, making one feel very uncomfortable looking at it.

Tanjiro Kamado was somewhat helpless, "But sitting in a place like this won't help." Inosuke Hashibira said disdainfully: "Disgusting indeed."

"I'm not disgusting!"

Zenitsu Agatsuma, kneeling on the ground, retorted, "This is normal, you guys are the ones who aren't normal!" !!

Suddenly, Tanjiro Kamado smelled an abnormal scent.

"What is this smell?"

He turned his head to look at the peak.

Then he ran a distance toward that direction.

Inosuke Hashibira followed immediately upon seeing this.

"Tanjiro?"

"Wait!"

"Don't leave me alone, don't leave me behind."

Zenitsu Agatsuma screamed and chased after them.

Tanjiro and Inosuke Hashibira ran for a distance and saw a figure lying not far away.

That person was wearing a Demon Slayer Corps uniform and holding a katana.

At this moment, the Demon Slayer Corps member on the ground saw Tanjiro and the other.

He couldn't help but cry, "Help... help me."

"It's a Demon Slayer Corps member, something must have happened!"

Saying this, Tanjiro immediately ran over.

Inosuke Hashibira didn't speak and followed along.

Zenitsu Agatsuma couldn't help but shout upon seeing this: "Wait... wait."

However, Tanjiro and the other ignored him.

They arrived in front of the Demon Slayer Corps member.

Tanjiro asked with concern: "Are you alright?"

At this moment, the Demon Slayer Corps member suddenly flew into the air, as if being pulled by something, and entered the mountain forest.

The Demon Slayer Corps member shouted in despair in the air, "I... I'm being pulled too. Help me!"

!!

Zenitsu Agatsuma turned pale with fright upon seeing this scene.

At this moment, a scent of blood drifted over.

Tanjiro's sense of smell was very keen and he smelled it instantly.

He knew that something must have happened to that Demon Slayer Corps member just now.

Tanjiro clenched his fists and said firmly: "I'm going."

At this moment, Inosuke Hashibira walked forward swaggeringly.

He even bumped into Tanjiro.

"I'm going first!"

"You can just follow along while shaking."

Then, he gripped his dual blades and muttered: "My stomach is growling..."

Beside him, Zenitsu Agatsuma, who was truly shivering and sitting on the ground, retorted: "You should be saying you're eager to try." "Haha, let's go!"

With a loud shout, Inosuke Hashibira ran toward the mountain forest ahead.

Tanjiro followed closely behind.

Zenitsu Agatsuma remained shivering on the ground.

Tanjiro and the other hadn't walked long before they discovered many spider webs in the forest.

"There are spider webs everywhere, what a nuisance!"

"Yeah..."

Tanjiro suddenly called out to the other, "Inosuke."

"What?"

"Thank you."

"Huh?"

Tanjiro smiled, "You saying you'd come along makes me feel much more at ease."

"Huh?"

"A twisted, evil aura is coming from the mountain, and I was a bit scared."

"Thank you."

"Oh..."

Inosuke Hashibira remembered what the old grandmother had said a few days ago, and felt somewhat strange in his heart.

"Inosuke."

At this moment, Tanjiro gestured toward the front.

Inosuke looked up and saw a Demon Slayer Corps member.

"Let's go."

The two ran forward.

Tanjiro walked up to the Demon Slayer Corps member and introduced himself, "We've come to support you. I am a Mizunoto-ranked swordsman, Tanjiro Kamado."

"Mizunoto-ranked..."

Who would have thought, the Demon Slayer swordsman said: "Why isn't it a Hashira!"

"It's all the same no matter how many Mizunoto-ranked ones come."

"It's meaningless!"

Demon Slayer swordsmen are divided into ten ranks.

They are Kinoe, Kinoto, Hinoe, Hinoto, Tsuchinoe... Mizunoto.

Because Tanjiro had only just passed the exam not long ago, he was a lowest-ranked swordsman.

As for the Hashira the Demon Slayer Corps member spoke of.

They are the nine highest-ranked swordsmen.

They are the pillars supporting the Demon Slayer Corps, undoubtedly powerful.

And this mission had already claimed the lives of many swordsmen.

So, the Demon Slayer Corps member was so disappointed to hear Tanjiro's rank.

"Bang!"

Just at this moment, Inosuke Hashibira punched the Demon Slayer Corps member in the face.

"So annoying."

Inosuke Hashibira grabbed the other's hair and shouted: "If you want to talk about meaningless, your existence is the one that's meaningless. Explain the situation to me, weakling!"

"The Kasugai Crow sent a message that ten members came here together..."

The member was helpless and could only explain what he knew.

In short, after they entered the mountain, the members began to kill each other.

Just as Tanjiro was thinking.

Suddenly, several Demon Slayer Corps members walked toward them.
