Chapter 63: The night is cold and the dew is heavy...
The night was cold, the dew heavy, and the moonlight hazy. In the forest, which should have been silent, a thrilling scene unfolded.
I saw a little girl in tattered clothes with messy hair, tears in her eyes, her upper teeth biting her lower lip tightly to suppress her voice, she didn't even dare to look back, but just kept running forward.
"Don't run so fast, little girl. Wouldn't it be better for you to stay here and keep me company?" A hoarse and mocking voice accompanied by saliva came from behind her ear, making her run faster.
[Hurry up, run faster...]
If I can't run any faster...
However, fate did not seem to be on her side.
The forest was dark at night, so she couldn't see clearly whether the road ahead was smooth. In a moment of carelessness, the little girl's foot hit a stone and she immediately fell to the ground.
This made her already injured foot completely unable to move, and she lost all hope of escaping.
[It’s… It’s over.]
With tears in her eyes, she couldn't help thinking so.
Mingming just wanted to pick more herbs to treat her mother's illness, so she came to the center of the forest with a lucky hope. However, she didn't expect that the forest was full of fog, and she not only lost her way, but also met the legendary cannibal.
Why...why did fate treat her like this!
"Such a delicate and tender girl, I really want to savor her!"
"Little girl, why are you running? Come play with me for a while, and I promise I won't eat you!"
As the rustling sound behind her became louder and louder, the girl felt even more sad.
[I’m dead now, Mom. See you in the next life…]
She couldn't help but close her eyes, waiting for her fate in despair.
Sudden--!
"Wuhu! Arrived just in time!" A pair of hands lifted her from the cold and wet ground in the forest, awakening her remaining emotions.
"Hey, kid, are you okay?" The player looked at the little NPC shivering from the cold and took off the coat that was casually knotted around his waist and put it on her.
"Kaguya... Kaguya-hime." The child opened his eyes with difficulty, with tears in his eyes still unwiped. He stared blankly at the player and fell into the player's arms.
A player who suddenly had a breathing gadget in their arms: ... (at a loss.jpg)
"It seems that he fell into a coma because of long-term running and mental stress, as well as because he wore too little and the temperature difference between day and night in the forest was large." Reborn took a casual look and guessed it was almost right.
"Now that you've seen it, you can't just ignore it. Send her out first."
"Mr. Reborn is right, Skarlu, please send her out." The player handed the little girl to the purple guy who arrived last.
"Oh, okay, Reborn-senpai... wait! Why should I go?" Skarsgard, who had subconsciously agreed, raised his head and only realized what he was saying halfway through.
"This is clearly a task assigned to you by Senior Reborn, right? Aurora?" Scarlu said angrily.
"Huh?" The player's tone was dangerous, and the player threatened manually.
Scarlu was angry but couldn't say anything: "...Okay...Okay, Sister Aurora."
Scarlu quickly agreed, but inwardly he was weeping. "Wow, why? I'm several years older than her, so why am I so timid in front of her? Is it because Willy always gets frustrated in front of Aurora?"
"Don't dawdle, Skarlu, send her out and come back quickly." The player took out his weapon and looked at the extremely ugly cannibal in front of him, saying expressionlessly, "Don't forget our ultimate goal."
"Yes! Sister Aurora!" The purple guy holding the child shuddered and ran away immediately.
“…What are you doing?”
Watching her food being rescued by a few people who suddenly appeared was not only a disaster, but they also tried to take her away! Even the best-tempered ghost couldn't stand it!
What's more, he is a ghost with a bad temper!
"Since you want to take my food away," the cannibal licked his mouth and said with a wicked smile, "then you can stay here!"
"As my food for Chubu Rentaro tonight!"
"How dare you say that." Reborn casually fired a bullet to repel the outstretched claws. "What do the Japanese say? Committing suicide by seppuku?"
"You can't even see the sun, and you're eating your former kin." He put one hand in his pocket, and a few bullets pinned the cannibal to the spot. "If this is the only way to survive, you might as well just commit seppuku."
"Huh, you don't think a mere bullet can hurt me, do you?" The cannibal Chubu Rentaro raised his head, revealing his eyeballs with words written on them. He casually swung his hands, and the bullet shot into his body by the killer was instantly bounced out.
The player who thought of someone familiar: "..."
The player shook his head violently, associating the cute little boy with the ugly cannibal in front of him. It was really an unpleasant association.
"That adult has given us eternal life and powerful self-healing ability, and we only need to pay a small price to live forever. What's wrong with that?" said Chibu Rentaro.
"It seems that you are one of the people who have personally encountered the Ghost King." The player laughed, "Mr. Reborn, it seems that we are lucky."
"Yeah. What good luck, I caught a big fish." Reborn gently brushed off the dust on his black suit, and the clear attribute of death flame ignited on his body.
"Let me test your depth first, cannibal."
Reborn's fighting style is just like his entire outfit: sophisticated, decisive, and murderous.
Before becoming a demon, it was clear that Rentaro was just an ordinary person full of fantasies. Even if he became a cannibal demon, or a cannibal demon of status, with faster speed and stronger strength, it could not hide the fact that he had never received systematic training.
On the contrary, every move of Reborn was mature and effective, causing a lot of damage to Chibunari Rentaro.
only……
"The damage caused by the Qing attribute's Death Flame to the Ogre doesn't seem to be as ideal as I imagined..." The player who was observing carefully touched his chin and muttered to himself.
Before this operation, Emperor Weil had made some assumptions about the damage that the Flame of Death could cause - it should be the Flame of Great Sky, the Flame of Clear Death and the Flame of Mist Death that could cause the greatest damage to the Ogres.
Now it seems that the Qing attribute's Death Flame does cause some damage, but not much.
"Although his name is Qing, his main focus is healing." Players have even greater respect for Reborn, who has Qing attributes but is still super invincible and powerful.
Since the Qi Qi Flame of the Qing attribute is not very effective, it is time for the player with the Dakong Flame to come on stage.
"Mr. Reborn, do you want to exchange?" the player asked loudly, waving his claws.
"Then I'll leave it to you, Aurora." Reborn withdrew his hand quickly and prepared to retreat.
The conversation without paying attention to others instantly angered Chubu Rentaro who was still fighting hard.
"Damn it! Disgusting human! Don't underestimate me!" Chibu Rentaro looked at the two people talking in a relaxed manner. For him, who had obtained extraordinary power, this was simply adding fuel to the fire.
"Blood Demon Art - Thousand Needles and Blades!" Furious, Chibu Rentaro used his strongest attack.
In an instant, countless giant needle-like objects spread out from his body, and all the surrounding trees were killed.
Swish, swish.
This strange sound came to the player's ears.
"It's actually poisonous?" The player looked at the corroded trees around him, somewhat shocked. "If it has such a strong power, why did it act like a little Karami before?"
"This is a common problem for ordinary people who suddenly gain immense power, Aurora." Reborn, still easily dodging, leaped over to the player. "Once possessing immense power and overturning everything before, one either begins to frantically indulge in boundless desires, or becomes complacent and indifferent to progress."
"Obviously, everyone except Buretz has a little bit of both," said Reborn.
"So what do I do now?" the player wondered, watching the Hedgehog Ogre version in front of him grow larger and larger. "Should I just go all out?"
For players who have fought several battles, this ogre, who has clearly just gained extraordinary power and has been bullying the weak, poses no threat at all. Instead, the players worry about his fragile life.
"Anyway, let's first try out the damage the Flame of the Sky can cause to the Ogres," said Reborn.
"Okay, then I'll go." Familiar weapons, familiar flames, and familiar players, all the needle-like objects that dared to invade their territory were shaved bare!
"You disgusting girl, how shameless!" Chu Bu Lian Tai Lang roared, "I'll teach you a lesson!"
"Really? Everyone who said that to me is basically dead now!" The player cut off one of Chibu Rentaro's claws with his sword and pointed it directly at his forehead. "And you, too!"
…
…
"What's the situation?" The figure of the poisonous snake suddenly appeared beside Reborn.
"Where's Scarlu?" He looked around with some doubt. Besides Reborn and Aurora, there was only this cannibal. "Why can't I see him?"
"Aurora just rescued a child and sent him out." The black-haired killer said lightly, "But Scarlu hasn't come back yet. Maybe he got lost."
Viper: “…Oh.” There were too many flaws and he didn’t want to complain.
"Let's not talk about him. The ghost in front of me is called Chubu Rentaro. It is much stronger than I thought, and the words in its eyes make me feel something is unusual. It should be a big fish." Reborn said seriously while watching the battle between Aurora and Chubu Rentaro.
"He has an ability called blood magic. The erosion of the trees and the damage to the ground that you see are the result of him using blood magic just now."
"I just tried the Flame of Clear Death, and the damage it caused to the Ogres was less than Weldi expected." Reborn continued, "As for the Flame of the Great Sky, you'll see from what I saw above. While it's quite effective, it might be difficult for Aurora to use it alone. Luche is inconvenient and can't play, so we have to find another way."
"What about you?" he asked.
I feel unlucky when I think of this venomous snake. He actually got together with Feng, the person he least wanted to be a partner with. Who came up with this stupid idea?
The player who came up with the bad idea: Hey.jpg
Business was more important, so he quickly explained the information, "We also discovered a cannibal, but there are no words in its eyes, and... although its speed and strength have increased, it's still very weak, and it doesn't have any so-called blood magic."
Reborn: "It seems that the blood demon magic is just like the flame of death, only a few people can possess it."
"Maybe." Viper continued to talk about the news they had received, "Wind's Mist attribute Death Flame has a good effect on it, and my Mist attribute can't cause much damage. But..."
Facing Reborn's question, Viper said expressionlessly, "As soon as we mentioned the name of the Demon King Muzan Kibutsuji in front of him, that man-eating demon instantly exploded."
"Self-destruct?" Reborn asked.
"Yeah." Viper nodded, then added, "It was blown to ash, into pieces, with no chance of rescue at all."
"It seems that this Ghost King is really cautious..." Reborn smiled.
"Oniitsuji Muzan."

The author has something to say: Except for Baku Rentaro, who is a randomly appearing name, his blood demon art is because the author was pricked by a needle today, and it hurts.
