Simultaneous travel: I am a talented person in all the worlds

Chapter 228 Demon Slayer Mo Yu
Demons destroy the world.

Night, midnight.

All was silent except for the low chirping of insects. The pale moonlight could not penetrate the dense foliage, casting dappled, ghostly shadows in the forest.

"Faster! Faster! Get your body moving!!"

Mo Yu's heart pounded wildly in his chest, the burning sensation almost incinerating him.

In order to gain every breath that could determine life or death.

He abandoned the relatively flat but roundabout mountain path and plunged headlong into the dark and rugged forest!

The Nichirin Blade in his hand gleamed coldly as he swung it repeatedly, forcefully cutting through the thorns, vines, and low branches that blocked his path, carving out a passage through the dense forest where no one had ever set foot before.

Without stopping for a moment, his figure moved like the wind, swiftly traversing the forest.

Not far behind him, a petite figure was gritting her teeth and following closely.

"Mo Yu!" The girl's voice was rapid and panting, yet still clear and crisp. "Are you sure... my sister... is really in danger?"

The one who asked the question was Shinobu Kocho, who was only fourteen years old. Looking at the boy's almost crazed back in front of her, her unease grew stronger.

Upon hearing this, a deep sense of regret and self-reproach flashed in Gui Mie Mo Yu's eyes.

Having been in this world for over a year, he almost forgot those life-and-death 'plots' etched deep in his memory!
Thinking it was just a normal mission, Kanae and I split up into two groups.

Who would have thought that while he was gathering information, he would inadvertently overhear a famous shrine nearby—the Eternal Bliss Shrine!

The simultaneous appearance of the keywords 'Kanae Butterfly' and 'Eternal Bliss Cult' was like a lightning bolt, instantly triggering a search of related memories in the brain:
The Lord of Eternal Bliss!

Upper Moon Two: Doma!

Please stay tuned for the next episode—

No misfortune, death of the style! !

"Damn it! Damn it! Damn it!!" Gui Mie Mo Yu roared madly in his heart, "Why didn't I think of something this important sooner?!"

Regret and fear gnawed at his heart like venomous snakes, transforming into an even more violent force.

He swung his Nichirin Blade even faster, slicing through all the vines and branches that blocked his path!

Shinobu Kocho felt even more uneasy seeing him completely ignoring her and frantically rushing on his way!

Since more than a year ago, when her older sister Kanae rescued this mysterious boy from the clutches of a demon during a mission, everything seems to have quietly changed.

To repay the debt of gratitude for saving their lives, the boy who called himself Mo Yu stayed by the sisters' side.

And he demonstrated amazing talent.

It only took one year!
He passed the extremely rigorous Demon Slayer Corps selection test and became a full member.

The older sister, Kanae, often praised Moyu's talent without reservation, which made the younger sister, Shinobu, who was born with a lack of strength and had been working hard in secret, very resentful. However, rationally, she had to admit the boy's talent.

His excellence is not only reflected in his combat talent.

This boy, who was suspected to be from the "Celestial Empire," also possessed superb medical skills that were enough to astound everyone in the Butterfly Mansion.

He is not only proficient in the ancient and mysterious methods of traditional Chinese medicine, but he also has a more thorough and skillful grasp of the emerging Western medical knowledge that Butterfly House is working hard to learn and promote than those who have been exposed to it since childhood!
Officially, he came to the Butterfly Mansion to help out, to assist his sister and himself, but more often than not, it was Kanae and her who turned to him for advice on medical matters.

The admiring and trusting look in his sister's eyes often ignited a nameless jealousy in Ren, who was extremely 'sister-obsessed', making him feel that this outsider was taking away most of his sister's attention.

Despite the complex emotions she felt, she had to admit one thing:
The degree of concern and care that Mo Yu has for his older sister is perhaps only slightly less than that for his own younger sister.

Therefore, when someone who is usually calm, focused, and even occasionally aloof suddenly erupts into such a manic and reckless outburst, it can only mean one thing—

The seriousness of the situation has far exceeded his capacity to bear it!

Sister, we're facing a potentially fatal crisis!!

Shinobu bit her lower lip hard, forcing herself to muster all her strength and willpower to keep up with the speeding figure ahead.

However, just as she was fully focused on the chase.

A swift black shadow suddenly pounced out from the shadows to her left without warning!

"!" Ren's pupils suddenly contracted!
In the face of life and death, her instincts, honed through long-term training, caused her body to react naturally.

Her footsteps moved swiftly, her body nimbly shifting to the side like a startled butterfly, dodging the deadly sneak attack.

The sharp, knife-like claws grazed the hem of her clothes, making a tearing sound.

While dodging the attack, Shinobu flipped his wrist, and the Nichirin Blade was drawn from its sheath in a reverse grip, precisely slashing at the neck of the attacking demon!

laugh!
The blade pierced the flesh, but only halfway in.

It was then firmly grasped by the other claw of that evil spirit, which was covered with a hard keratinous shell, and could not move!

Shinobu Kocho is naturally weak in strength.

Moreover, she was only fourteen years old at the time.

Whether in terms of physical development or the cultivation of breathing techniques, he is far from reaching the full potential to inherit his sister's will and become a capable Insect Pillar!
Facing this powerful demon, she failed to break its neck with her first strike, and instead her weapon was seized by the demon!

Worse.

Almost at the same time, another dark figure silently appeared on her right!
A long, scarlet tongue, covered in barbs and twisting flexibly like a flail, lashed out at her vital back with a stench-filled gust of wind!
There's no way to retreat!
The butterfly gritted its teeth.

Without hesitation, he forcefully pulled back the stuck Nichirin Blade and turned to parry the deadly tongue chain.

But doing so would mean that her entire back would be completely exposed to the attack range of the first Claw Demon!
Just as she was fully focused, preparing to use her agility to maneuver...

Suddenly! A cold, sharp blade of light appeared out of nowhere! It slashed horizontally across!

Click!

The demon claw, hard enough to grab a Nichirin Blade with bare hands, snapped off instantly!

Blood gushed from her wrist like a fountain, and a few drops of warm liquid splashed onto Shinobu's face, making her pause slightly.

However, Mo Yu's movements did not stop at all.

The instant he severed the demon's claw, he lunged forward, his blade flashing across the clawed demon's neck, and a hideous demon head shot into the sky!

Immediately afterwards, his figure passed by Shinobu Kocho like a ghost, their clothes briefly intertwining in the air before separating in an instant.

Demon Slayer Mo Yu's figure had already rushed up along the barbed tongue that was attacking.

The blade flashed again in his hand!
With a single stroke, he severed the long tongue along with the head of the demon behind it!
Not a word was spoken, and there was not a pause.

After quickly dispatching the two evil spirits blocking his path, Mo Yu didn't even glance back, continuing his frantic run towards his destination without pausing for a moment.

Shinobu Kocho stood frozen in place, watching his figure disappear rapidly into the depths of the forest, biting her lower lip hard, a faint taste of blood spreading in her mouth.

She seemed to hear two silent words echoing in her ears—useless!
This was not an insult from Mo Yu in the novel "Demon Slayer".

In fact, Ren knew very well that Demon Slayer Mo Yu had always treated her quite well, and had never lacked guidance and care on a daily basis.

Otherwise, he wouldn't have been able to keep an eye on her movements even when he was so anxious and frantically rushing to get there.

And the moment she was in danger, they immediately turned back to rescue her!

The reason he remained silent was because time was of the essence; every minute and every second concerned his sister's life or death, and he dared not waste even a single word!
That word "trash" was Shinobu Kocho's deepest self-reproach and humiliation.

My sister may be facing the biggest crisis of her life.

And this younger sister, who always said she loved her older sister the most and wanted to protect her the most, couldn't help at all!

Not only can they not help!
Instead, she almost became a hindrance, forcing the Demon Slayer Mo Yu, who was already focused on saving his sister, to be distracted and save her instead!
And he even said he wanted to protect his sister, but... does he even deserve that?
At this most critical moment, they were so weak and powerless!

It seems that all she can do is...

She simply strode forward with even greater effort, closely following the figure ahead who held all her hopes, while desperately trying to take good care of herself.

I pray that nothing else happens and that he won't be distracted by me again.

For Mo Yu, the Demon Slayer at this moment, that's already enough!
The strength or weakness of something is the result of a combination of factors.

In teamwork, being able to recognize one's own role, avoid holding others back, and remain calm at critical moments without wasting time on pointless erratic behavior already puts one ahead of countless "bad teammates" in reality!
As for leaving Shinobu Kocho alone in the previous town to wait?

Putting aside the fact that this order is almost inhumane, would Ren obey it if her sister's life were uncertain?

Even if she heard it, what if... what if Demon Slayer Mo Yu, after exhausting all his strength to save Kocho Kanae, rushed back only to find...

Shinobu Kocho also met with misfortune?!
He dared not gamble on how much the butterfly effect he, as a transmigrator, would change the fate of this world.

Keeping Ren by his side, at least so that he can take timely remedial measures if anything happens, is the limit of what he can do.

However, even at its maximum speed.

A heavy question still lingered in Mo Yu's mind.

"Right now I can only achieve 'Total Concentration Breathing,' not yet at the level of 'Total Concentration - Constant Focus.' My strength is probably still far inferior to that of the Pillars..."

"Even if I arrive in time to face the legendary 'Upper Moon Two' Doma... can I really... really save Kanae?"

He forced himself to stop thinking about the problem.

He only knows one thing!

If he chooses not to go at this moment because of fear, hesitation, or the perceived gap in strength.

So even if he becomes stronger in the future, strong enough to easily kill Doma and avenge Kanae...

He will never, ever forgive himself for standing idly by and cowering in the face of adversity!
"If...it really can't be saved..."

As Gui Mie Mo Yu ran at top speed, a smile that was almost one of relief and determination suddenly appeared on his lips. He murmured to himself, "Then dying here with her... might not be such a bad outcome."

This is not despair, but a transcendence of life and death, an awareness of putting one's own life aside.

Since suddenly arriving in this perilous world, he has been like a piece of duckweed, without any clear goals or pursuits.

According to his original fate, he might have perished in the belly of a ghost more than a year ago on that night.

It was she, Kanae Butterfly, who pulled him back from the brink of death!
She took gentle and meticulous care of his injuries, providing him with food and lodging, but never asked for anything in return.

Those eyes that always held warmth, that smile as warm and gentle as the spring sunshine…

Mo Yu will never forget Demon Slayer.

From that time on, 'protection' became the only reason for his survival.

This has nothing to do with whether she is the gentle and beautiful 'anime wife' from his past life memories.

This has nothing to do with whether she is a highly respected 'Flower Pillar' of the Demon Slayer Corps.

It's not because she is Kanae, but because Kanae is her!
She was the one who gave me new life and warmth when I was at my most desperate and helpless.

[Qin Shi: Oh, finally a new person has joined the group? Welcome, welcome!]
