Chapter 64: Lower String "In that case, deal with it...
"In that case, we must be even more careful when dealing with the man-eating ghost Chubu Rentaro. Otherwise, we might just end up catching a ghost that looks high-ranking, only to have it instantly reduced to a firework." Reborn, playing with his pistol, asked, "Viper, when can your real body arrive?"
The forest, seemingly due to the presence of the clown Rentaro, was shrouded in a strange mist. Enveloped by this mist, communication equipment was nearly unusable, forcing them to rely on illusions.
"Feng and I are on our way. But it will take some time..." Viper's figure became vague and a little transparent. "What about Luche? Is she okay?"
Due to physical reasons and the fact that she is not a combat-type person, Luche is still staying at their daytime residence.
"Don't worry, Lal Milch will protect her. And..." Reborn smiled confidently, holding a small object in his hand - it was the super mini communication bug that Aurora once gave him.
And the one in Aurora's hand...
He looked in the direction of his landing point.
In the huge villa, a woman with long dark blue hair and a large white witch's hat was resting with her eyes closed on a recliner, while a woman with short shoulder-length hair was leaning against a nearby railing, holding a sharp weapon, and looking around from time to time with a vigilant look.
The super mini communication bug held in Reborn's hand had only one brother bug, which was quietly lying in the hand of the woman on the recliner, waiting for her to wake him up.
"Really?" Viper's voice gradually faded away. "Then just wait for news from Feng and me. We'll be here as soon as possible."
His illusionary clone completely disappeared.
Reborn glanced at the place where he disappeared and continued to watch Aurora's battle with Chibaku Rentaro.
The battle situation has become very intense. The purity of the Sky Flame possessed by Aurora is extremely high. Once it touches the body of Chubu Rentaro, a big hole will be melted in Chubu Rentaro's body immediately.
Except for the fact that Bu Rentaro has a very strong self-healing ability, the two of them can be considered a draw.
"You damn girl..., you're just a piece of food..." After being burned away by the heat of the sky flame once again, Chibu Rentaro gritted his teeth and said unwillingly.
Countless needle-like objects once again spread from Chubu Rentaro's body with a crackling corrosive sound.
"Blood Demon Art—Thousand Needles and Blades!"
"Want to use that move again?" The player's sword erupted in flames, and the anti-damage shield in his hand was ready for defense. His golden eyes became even clearer because of this movement. "Some moves can't be used a second time after the first time. Didn't your boss teach you why?"
"because……"
"The first time you use it, someone will crack it!"
"Fall down, you cannibal who should have perished!"
The golden slash accurately avoided Chu Bu Rentaro's vital points and knocked him to the ground with one sword.
If Bu Rentaro is eliminated, there will be no chance of re-emergence——!

Wuhu, what a great harvest, the players are very happy.
Waving his claws at the black-haired killer who was watching from the side, the player asked, "When will Viper come? I kind of want to go back."
The player recalled Luqie's expression when they left the house, and always had a bad feeling.
Before Reborn could answer, a familiar voice came from not far away.
"Why are you rushing me? Blame the wind." The venomous snake floated over, expressionless. "Otherwise, with my speed alone, I'd be very fast."
Feng, who appeared in everyone's sight after him, did not refute, but just smiled faintly, "Sorry for the long wait."
Looking at an expressionless face and a face as bright as spring breeze, although I don't know what kind of unpleasantness has arisen between them, but...
Player: Isn’t it clear who is better?
Viper saw an unhappy message from Aurora's expression, snorted in dissatisfaction, turned to look at Chubu Rentaro who was lying on the ground, his life or death unknown, and used an illusion.
Chubu Rentaro's expression changed from calm to ferocious, and then to fear, and the venomous snake was also brought into Chubu Rentaro's perspective, and in the process he caught a glimpse of the figure of the Ghost King.
On a cold night, a drunken Chibu Rentaro sat under a tree outside his house, a bottle of wine in his hand. He accidentally saw a beautiful but strange woman passing through his yard.
The drunkenness magnified Chu Bu Liantaro's inner thoughts, causing him to follow involuntarily, but he didn't expect that he would step into the abyss of hell.
"It's cold late at night, but my wife kicked me out. Can I only drink to relieve my sorrow?" A beautiful woman in a black kimono with gold edges asked condescendingly the man who she had severely punished after discovering him - he was now crawling on the ground, shivering.
“Yes…yes.”
"How pitiful! Such a young and energetic man has to be wasted by his heartless wife." The beautiful woman lifted the man's chin and said seductively, "Do you want to... possess a powerful power?"
"Yes... yes, sir." The bewitched man's voice was stuttering, but his tone was full of hope.
"Then... it'll be as you wish." The woman's scarlet eyes flashed, and the man instantly lost consciousness. Viper's perspective was also completely dark.
When I woke up again, I saw human remains in my hands, and the warm wooden house was filled with blood splattered everywhere. The man was numbly sucking blood, seemingly unconscious.
But the last bit of consciousness deep in his mind allowed Viper to hear the disdainful sound uttered by the incredibly beautiful black-haired woman.
"What a weak man! It took so much of my blood to transform this kind of thing into a Lower Rank. What a waste."
"But, there's no Demon Slayer Corps, no Nichirin Sword, and no Yukari... why are you still awake?!"
"No! You're not that weak man. Who are you—?!" The Ghost King, furious at having his territory invaded, drove the venomous snake's consciousness out!
[Oh no, the Ghost King has discovered us!]
"I've found a useful clue!" Viper suddenly opened his eyes and shouted subconsciously, "No, retreat quickly!"
Sure enough, just as he expected, after everyone retreated quickly as instructed, Chu Bu Liantaro's body began to swell rapidly, exactly the same as the state of the ghost self-explosion that Dushe and Feng had seen before.
"No...don't...! I can still be useful!"
"I don't want to die yet... I don't want to die! Lord Ghost King! Save me, save me!" Chubu Rentaro's wails echoed throughout the forest.
"I want to tell you the truth." The player looked at the cannibal's miserable state and said silently, "Isn't your current situation caused by the Lord Ghost King you mentioned?"
And now you ask him for help?
"Shut up! You don't think I'm the only ghost here, do you?" Even though Chu Bu Liantaro was in such a miserable situation, he still couldn't say anything good. Instead, he became even more vicious.
"What do you mean?!" the player asked harshly.
"Demons cannot be killed. They will wipe out all those who dare to resist. Lord Demon King will become the king of the new world!" This man, who had been transformed into a Lower Moon less than two weeks ago, had become crazy under heavy pressure and just kept repeating those ridiculous words.
"Your leader's name is Muzan Kibutsuji, right?" A player, sensing something ominous, stared intently at Chibu Rentaro's engraved eye. "Tell her to clean her neck and wait for us to take her life."
Except for Bu Rentaro who wanted to say something more, unfortunately his life was doomed to end the moment he heard the name of the Demon King - Muzan Kibutsuji would not allow anyone who knew his name to live.
With a sharp squeezing sound, there was no longer any cannibal ghost other than Bu Rentaro in the world.
"Hyuna, I'm sorry, it's all my fault..." Chibu Rentaro's cloudy eyes gradually became clear, and tears of grief flowed out.
He finally came to his senses in the end, and felt deeply remorseful for not being able to resist the temptation and becoming a ghost, and for killing his wife, with whom he was in a cold war, while he was unconscious.
Now, he also wants to go down to accompany her.
“…”
The player looking at the mutilated piece of meat said: "If I had known this would happen, why did I do it in the first place?"
You chose to agree to become a demon with the Demon King Muzan Kibutsuji, but he killed your wife with his own hands. You lived a strong life for a while, but he still took advantage of you. And you rejected the Demon King Muzan Kibutsuji and was killed by him with his own hands...
If you were given another chance, what would you choose besides Bu Rentaro?
But this question will never be answered.
"Hurry back." Reborn looked at the super mini communicator in his hand, his face a little unhappy. "Something must have happened with Luche and Lal Milch."
"What?" Viper asked, "Didn't you say it would be okay?"
"Could it be that...?" Feng's expression was also a little bad.
"Could it be that the ghost that Chubu Rentaro mentioned ran to Luche and the others?" The player's eyes became dark and he asked with some concern.
"Ah, but she didn't send much information, so it shouldn't be a big problem. Let's go back and check it out first." Reborn said this while looking at the communication bug.
"Um."
"Uh-huh."
Everyone responded and hurried towards the temporary resting place.
