Chapter 248

And so, Karl's figure vanished.

Hm?

Shinobu Kocho, who had been observing the three of them, immediately noticed something wrong.

That ordinary person from just now had actually disappeared?

Left?

Where did he leave from?

He was clearly just there a moment ago, wasn't he?

In that instant, Shinobu Kocho felt something was off.

Could it be that this person wasn't the ordinary person she thought he was?

But rather a person with powerful strength?

Otherwise, how could one explain the situation of him disappearing?

Shinobu Kocho's mood became heavy.

Of course, even so.

She didn't think Karl could destroy the Demon Slayer Corps.

After all, the Demon Slayer Corps possessed nine Hashira.

They were the most powerful swordsmen.

About twenty seconds later, Karl returned to the Demon Slayer world.

Because he remembered it was already late at night in his own world.

Jang Man-wol had already rested.

So Karl had returned to his own world to check in.

Now that he had finished checking in, he returned using his own power.

Shinobu Kocho looked curious, "Young man, may I ask where you just went?" "Of course."

Karl replied casually, "I just went to another world."

"..."

Shinobu Kocho was speechless.

A moment later, she said with a smile, "I didn't expect that, you're actually quite impressive." Although she said that, Shinobu Kocho didn't believe Karl's claim at all.

I'm afraid not only her, but anyone else wouldn't believe what Karl said.

A few dozen seconds of time, and he went to another world?

Who could believe such a thing?

Karl nodded, "Mm."

Beside them, although Giyu Tomioka didn't speak.

He also didn't think Karl had really gone to another world.

Only Tanjiro believed him.

He believed that Karl had truly gone to other worlds.

Because he knew that Karl was not originally from this world.

Being someone from another world, it was naturally normal to return to his own world.

And since the other party possessed powerful strength and could travel between worlds on his own, it didn't seem impossible?

The group hurried toward headquarters.

Karl, of course, followed along very easily.

He didn't arrive at the Demon Slayer Corps headquarters instantly, nor did he use excessive speed.

He just followed quietly on the side.

After traveling for a while, the sky began to brighten.

Because Nezuko was a demon, she could not see the sunlight.

So Tanjiro had her shrink her body and enter the box.

After a while longer, they reached their destination.

Demon Slayer Corps headquarters.

The environment here was excellent; it wouldn't be an exaggeration to call it a place of birdsong and fragrant flowers.

Moreover, there were large patches of wisteria flowers.

It was still early, so they didn't go to see anyone directly.

Instead, they were taken to a small courtyard.

Karl followed Tanjiro and the other to a small courtyard brought by the Demon Slayer Corps.

Giyu Tomioka and Shinobu Kocho had left.

Once at the Demon Slayer Corps headquarters, there was no need to worry about anyone escaping.

"I'm really sorry, Mr. Karl."

Tanjiro said apologetically, "I've troubled you."

Karl waved his hand, "It's fine, I wanted to come myself."

As he spoke, he took a bottle of red wine and a glass from his different-dimensional space and drank casually.

"Gulp..."

Seeing this, Tanjiro subconsciously swallowed his saliva.

Having fought continuously before, he hadn't replenished his water.

Tanjiro was very thirsty now.

"Want a drink?"

Karl asked.

"Uh... Mr. Karl, do you have water?"

"Of course."

Karl took a bottle of pure water and a bottle of orange juice from his different-dimensional space and handed them to Tanjiro.

"Thank you."

"You're welcome."

After resting for a while, a Kakushi member entered the courtyard.

"Tanjiro Kamado, come with me to face judgment."

"Oh."

Tanjiro responded, carried the box, and followed the person out of the courtyard.

Karl naturally accompanied them.

"The people you are about to see are Hashira."

Suddenly, the Kakushi member spoke, "Do not talk back to them."

"Hashira?"

Tanjiro was stunned.

He didn't know what Hashira meant.

Before this, he hadn't heard any news about Hashira.

What are Hashira, and is there anything special about these people?

Seeing Tanjiro's expression, the Kakushi member knew he didn't know what a Hashira was.

So he explained, "Hashira are the highest-ranking swordsmen in the Demon Slayer Corps."

"Every one of them is a powerful existence."

The Kakushi member explaining to Tanjiro was naturally not out of kindness.

He just didn't want Tanjiro to offend the Hashira.

"Hashira..."

Tanjiro was stunned; it was his first time learning of the existence of Hashira.

"Heh."

Karl, however, laughed indifferently.

Not long after, they arrived in a huge courtyard.

By this time, there were already several figures in the courtyard.

There was a person with gold and red hair, a person with pink and green hair, and a white-haired person with strange patterns painted on their face... there were men and women, all with very non-mainstream styles.

Well, in Karl's view, that was about it.

The so-called nine Hashira of the Demon Slayer Corps were, in terms of appearance, about the difference between a good student and a non-mainstream person compared to ordinary Demon Slayer Corps members.

Of course, only in terms of appearance.

Karl knew that many of the nine Hashira were quite good.

Especially the Flame Hashira, Kyojuro Rengoku.

This was a person with a cheerful personality, as passionate as fire.

His personality was very good, and he had great personal charisma.

Like Tanjiro, he was someone Karl admired.

When Karl originally saw this character die, he felt regret for a long time.

Now that he had come to the Demon Slayer world, surely this Flame Hashira wouldn't have to die.

This Flame Hashira was also in the courtyard.

In the courtyard were the Flame Hashira, Insect Hashira, Sound Hashira, Love Hashira, Stone Hashira, Mist Hashira, Serpent Hashira, and Water Hashira.

Hm, one Wind Hashira was missing.

Karl thought.

At this moment, the Hashira also discovered Karl and his group.

"What is this."

The Sound Hashira, Tengen Uzui, was somewhat disappointed.

"I heard there was a Demon Slayer Corps member carrying a demon, I thought it would be flashy. It turns out to be so tacky."

The Flame Hashira, Kyojuro Rengoku, nodded, "Mm, so we are to judge this boy next. I see."

Tanjiro looked at these people, somewhat curious, "Are these... the so-called Hashira?" "Idiot!"

The Kakushi member scolded, "You dare to talk back knowing they are Hashira!"

"I advise you..."

"It's best not to speak anymore."

Karl looked at the Kakushi member with a smile.

"..."

For some reason, although Karl was smiling.

The Kakushi member felt danger.

This was an instinctive reaction of life.

Compelled by this pressure, the Kakushi member who had wanted to rebuke Karl.

Actually didn't dare to speak anymore.

For a moment, the atmosphere was somewhat heavy.

"Tanjiro Kamado."

Suddenly, Shinobu Kocho spoke, "We are now going to judge you."

"Before the judgment begins, let's explain the crimes you have committed."

"There's no need for a judgment!"

Kyojuro Rengoku said on his own, "Protecting a demon clearly violates the corps rules, we can handle it ourselves. Behead him along with the demon."

"Sorry."

Karl said calmly, "You cannot kill this person."

Although he admired Kyojuro Rengoku, if the other party wanted to kill Tanjiro, Karl could not stand by and watch.

Of course, he also knew that in the end, Tanjiro and his sister were not killed.

But Karl didn't want to see the idiotic things that happened in between.
