Chapter 400

Artoria, who had regained her balance in the constantly changing space, discovered a large group of mini-shin transformed into ghosts that had been reported by Abe Haruaki but had never been seen by anyone since.

"Strike Air!"

The invisible wind that suddenly spread out in all directions shattered the densely packed demonized mini-signs as well as the barriers between different nearby spaces, allowing many Demon Slayer swordsmen who had been separated from the high-end combat forces such as the pillars or servants due to the previous space changes to be in the same space with Artoria again.

"Gather together in teams of three or four people. This will effectively prevent you from facing the ghosts alone when the space changes again." Artoria gave instructions with her back to the nearby swordsmen. She once again grasped the Invisible Sword and left everyone behind. She directly dismantled the Japanese sliding doors that separated several spaces, "... and caught up."

"Breath of the Wind?" The ghost who was blown away by the strong wind asked as he looked at the door that was torn by the wind not long ago.

"I don't know how to breathe." Artoria answered the demon with six eyes, and blocked Tokito Muichiro behind her like she did when she protected the Lord of the Holy Grail in the past. "But you can try to see if the wind in my hand can tear you into pieces - come at me with all your strength."

Meanwhile, Bedivere and Tristan also arrived at Galahad, Mash, and Tanjiro Kamado's side, and heard Galahad's judgment:

"This open space is great. I will use it as a shooting position for the black gun."

"Is this place okay?" Tanjiro Kamado turned to ask the gunner standing next to him, "We haven't even seen the shadow of Muzan Muzan yet, right?"

"No need to go any further - even if there is space separating our perception, Galahad will know where Muzan Muzan is." Mash answered Tanjiro Kamado, while explaining the subsequent arrangements to Bedivere, "Mr. Bedivere, your Noble Phantasm is the Virtual Holy Sword, so I want to leave the rest of the work to you - because I'm not sure if Ms. Artoria can get to Muzan Muzan in time."

"This Holy Grail needs to be destroyed directly." Galahad looked at the two colleagues calmly, "So your mission arrangement has changed from restricting Muzan Mukuji's range of action to destroying the Holy Grail, and then restricting Muzan Mukuji's range of action - destroying the Holy Grail first. If the Holy Grail exists, the black gun body will not be able to measure the scale of Muzan Mukuji's existence."

"When are we leaving?" Tristan confirmed to Galahad.

"Just wait until I blast open the way to the Holy Grail." Mash looked at Galahad, "But first we have to do -"

"Let's turn this place into our own city, Lord Camelot."

"Although it's not a skill that can create a proper barrier or formation, it's still within the realm of possibility if it's just a short-term assimilation." Galahad raised his shield in front of everyone and closed his eyes. "Real name, reveal it. I stand at the Seat of Disaster - it's our homeland that can heal all wounds and all grudges. Reveal it!"

"The already distant ideal city "Lord Camelot"! "

With the huge round table as the center, the phantom of the chalk city began to devour the space of the ghost camp - at the same time, Ortenaus's shield transformed into a huge cannon in Mash's hand.

"This size..." Tanjiro Kamado was stunned at what was in front of him.

"After all, this thing is a replica. The real thing is indeed in the shape of a gun. Since we don't have the real thing, we usually just call this weapon by the name of the real thing." Mash used all her strength to hold the gun barrel and explained to Tanjiro Kamado, "Then, before using the life distance bullet 'Dead Counter' - let's use ordinary magic bullets to blow away all the obstacles in front of us."

"This vibration..." In another space, Ms. Okita, who was thrown together with two pillars, tried hard to stabilize her body in the violent vibration of the space. While dealing with the evil spirits, she distractedly thought about the cause of the vibration, "Is someone fighting fiercely with the demons? But this frequency... Eh? The vibration stopped!?!"

At the same time, white marble appeared beside them, replacing the original Japanese-style partition.

"Water Breathing, Type 4, Striking Tide."

Tomioka Giyu seized the rare opportunity and cut off the demon's head.

After a period of random and frenzied bombardment, Mash successfully opened up a route that could be used to bombard Muzan Muzan - even though Muzan Muzan had been moving from the beginning, because of the Holy Grail, Galahad was always able to make Mash immediately change the direction of the bombardment, so that Muzan Muzan now appeared in front of them unobstructed.

"The Holy Grail is inside that guy's body." Galahad pointed out the direction for Bedivere. "Anyway, cut towards the place where the hearth is usually - Muzan Mukuji will heal itself, so you just need to cut the Holy Grail. If you can't destroy it directly, separate the Holy Grail from Muzan Mukuji... It's not impossible to deal with Muzan Mukuji first and then the Holy Grail."

"I'm going to attack." Bedivere nodded to the others and rushed towards Muzan Muzan. His silver right arm emitted an extremely bright light. "All magic power is released. I can do it. Activate the Noble Phantasm. Tear everything apart, my arm——"

"Hold the sword tightly, Silver Arm "Switch On Agateram"! 】

The Holy Grail took the initiative to break away from its owner the moment the Noble Phantasm approached Muzan Kibutsuji - but Bedivere's Noble Phantasm brought even greater trouble.

"The blood of the demon that has transformed into the physical curse 'Black Mud'..." Even Tristan was shocked by this change, "We must immediately make those ordinary people retreat--"

"Just kill Muzan Muzuki before the demon blood spreads to other places." Mashu interrupted Tristan and said in a steady tone, "You go and cooperate with Bedivere to control Muzan Muzuki's actions - I will get rid of Muzan Muzuki before the demon blood spreads to places we don't know."

"Aplish Measure, start measuring!"

"The existence scale of Demon King Muzan Kibutsuji Muzan is 1000... 2000... 3000... and it stops at 50000!"

"Paradox construct 'Black Barrel' is formed. Life range bullet 'Dead Counter' is imprinted in the barrel!"

"——Connection completed 『Set』."

"The fate of the Demon King, Muzan Kibutsuji, has been observed. The life distance bullet "Dead Counter" has turned from a paradox to a truth."

"Bunker-buster torpedo, maximum limit! The gun barrel is completely fixed, synchronization is complete!"

"...Start loading."

The damaged Holy Grail was still gushing out dark demon blood, Archer's strings, Saber's sword, and the Cretaceous City together confined the demons in place - and in the distant artillery position, Tanjiro Kamado followed the gunner's instructions and continuously swung out swordsmanship like a blazing sun to fill the barrel.

"The God of Fire Kagura: The Burning Sun Red Mirror!"

As if lead was injected into his muscles, Tanjiro Kamado's movements became visibly slower and slower.

——More tiring than any previous training!!!

Tanjiro Kamado took a deep breath, cleared his mind, and swung his next sword.

"The God of Fire Kagura: Sun Phantom Rainbow!"

——As expected, it is too risky to let the locals load the ammunition. The life-distance bullet "Dead Counter" requires a lot of destiny, which is a heavy pressure that ordinary people cannot resist. Even the predecessors in the past were required to only fire one shot... Although according to New Chaldea, three Command Spells should be enough to fire three shots.

Mash was watching Tanjiro Kamado through Ortenaus's armor, and frowned slightly when she saw Tanjiro Kamado gasping for breath.

——But, we must not stop at this time!

The obsidian-like Nichirin Sword in Tanjiro Kamado's hand turned into a rare red color when he subconsciously clenched it again, and the scar on his head also changed shape unconsciously.

"The God of Fire Kagura Train!"

"The God of Fire Kagura: Burning Bones and Flaming Sun!"

——His movements suddenly became faster, and it looked like his whole body was on fire.

Galahad withdrew his gaze from Tanjiro Kamado and increased the magic power injected into the Noble Phantasm, isolating the filth gushing out of the Holy Grail from the rest of the battlefield.

"The God of Fire Kagura: Enma!"

As Tanjiro Kamado used his final move, Muzan Kibutsuji Murei, sensing a sudden crisis, tried to split himself to avoid the bombardment.

"Mash!!!" The two Knights of the Round Table surrounding Muzan Kibutsuji shouted to remind their gunners.

“It doesn’t matter, we are faster!” Mash tightly grasped the handle on the side of the gun, “Load the Breath of Sun into the spirit chamber! Barrel Replica, Full Trans…! Everything that is tangible must come to an end!!!”

The black magic bullet with an ominous red glow hit Muzan Muzan's flesh and body before it could completely split.

——The conceptual weapon of "Tenju" is a curse and a poison. It has an effect as long as it hits. It is similar to the devil's eyes of Balor, and it can drag the end far in the future to the present.

“Ah, although according to the records of the Demon Slayer Corps, Muzan Muzan seems to have only the sun as a weakness, which can be called the myth of immortality…” Mashu tried to adjust his breathing and restore his muscles. He watched Muzan Muzan’s flesh and body constantly split and died, while putting away the black gun, “But even fairies can grow—”

"He just aged too slowly, so death hasn't reached him yet - the scale of existence is 50,000..." Galahad sighed and finished unfolding the Noble Phantasm, "I will go and completely destroy the Holy Grail, and you go and notify the others to return to the train. While Muzan Muzan is not completely dead yet..."

"Let Tanjiro go alone." Mashu shook his head, took out a recovery potion from Ortenous' shield and injected it into Tanjiro Kamado. "We can leave later, but the Demon Slayer Corps can't."

"That being said..." Galahad frowned slightly, but quickly agreed to Mash's proposal, "Well, if Merlin is here - indeed, we can do it this way."

So, when the sun rises, all traces of the guys who shouldn't exist in this world have disappeared - just like a daydream without any reason.
