"Wait for me, wait for Komatsumaru, don't leave me behind."

"I won't hold it against you, I won't hold it against you hitting my head, my best Onmyoji!" [again, against my will]

.........

The monsters besieging the mountain wind were more numerous and stronger.

Among them were several demons whose bodies resembled giant pythons, winding and long, and the terrifying corrosive power they contained was self-evident.

Fortunately, their intelligence has not improved and remains very low. Apart from their predetermined goal of erosion, they have no other superfluous thoughts.

Therefore, with the help of Ara and Kidomaru, the solution became simple and straightforward.

Even though the number of monsters was as numerous as the tide, they were all wiped out within a short period of time!

However, Kidomaru's condition gradually became somewhat abnormal due to excessive killing.

"Ten, twenty, thirty, ... more, more!"

He began to count them in detail, almost uncontrollably, with each sentence consisting of units of ten.

Moreover, the chains it released remained coiled in the forest like eerie snakes, not being retracted after the hunt, and still making a chilling rustling sound after the battle ended.

Ara knew that the "details" Kidomaru mentioned were calculating the number of working days that could be exchanged, since the condition he had given was that ten demon spirits could be exchanged for one day of work.

But this agreement probably can no longer continue.

This is certainly not because Huang wanted to break the contract after seeing its enormous achievements.

Rather, it was because the chains that had not been retrieved exuded a chilling, eerie aura that captivated the soul. This aura was not merely the demonic energy of Kidomaru himself, but also the corrosive presence of those demonic spirits.

Including mountain winds,

The way those demons corrupt powerful monsters is by slowly seeping into them through their weapons.

The more you kill,

The deeper the erosion, the more profound the impact.

Unlike minor demons like Kaku and Komatsumaru, once a major demon is deeply mired in the abyss of desire, it is not so easy for him to extricate himself from it.

Seeing this situation, Ichimokuren and Shikaoko, who were deep in the forest, would inevitably encounter even stronger obstacles, and I would not have time to help them completely remove the demonic energy from their bodies.

"After I find my next partner, Ichimokuren, you will stop and rest, and you are not allowed to fight anymore."

Huang gave a command to the Asura demon who was gradually suppressing its demonic energy, his words calm yet resolute.

"Huh? Why should I? Are you worried that I'll pay off all my debts in a single day?"

Upon hearing the order, Kidomaru immediately showed his disbelief.

Even though he has stopped his almost pathological recounting, his sudden outburst of emotions still reveals his hideous, demonic nature to the fullest extent.

The black chains that hadn't been retrieved suddenly stirred under its will, coiling and intertwining behind it like black pythons, ready to attack at any moment!

Huang did not answer, but calmly looked at the hideous demons and monsters in his field of vision.

He wanted to use his eye technique to discern what kind of power it was that could corrupt powerful monsters like Yama-kaze and Kidomaru through weapons.

Those monsters clearly don't have any intelligence at all!

But it failed.

There was no familiar scent to be found.

"I will eliminate them all."

"Nobody can stop me!"

"Those who obstruct me shall die!!"

The Onmyoji's silence caused Kidomaru's ferocity to collide with the soft cotton, prompting him to utter harsh words.

But it was at this moment that Huang gave his response.

With a clanging sound of metal, the weapon carried on his back was drawn.

"Hey, interesting."

"I've been saving you for last, as the most delicious prey."

"Since that's the case, then this time, let's fight to the death!!"

The Onmyoji's actions immediately aroused Kidomaru's killing intent to its highest point.

But Huang's purpose in drawing his sword was no longer there.

With the blade slightly tilted, a cold glint, accompanied by a sharp and bright, shallow blade surface, came into the former's view.

Along with it came the rhetorical questions posed by the desolate calm:

"Are you prepared to see her looking like this from now on?"

Chapter 771 Lost Ruins, Moss-Covered Statues.

Because of the chaos he caused in Heian-kyo before, as a precaution, when Ara stepped into this plane, he not only used the power of [Mirror of Still Water] to conceal his aura, but also placed the demon sword [Manifestation], which was imbued with demonic energy, in the Kamui dimension, replacing it with an ordinary chakra sword.

But it is precisely because it is an ordinary chakra sword that it has a smooth blade that is different from the one used in the Manifestation Strike, and this allows a demon who is on the verge of losing control to see himself clearly.

The blade of the horizontal sword is very narrow, only about two or three fingers wide, which is not enough to fully show the appearance of Kidomaru.

However, for the Asura demon in its current state, even just a glimpse is enough to imagine its entire ferocious and terrifying nature.

Upon seeing himself reflected in the blade, Kidomaru suddenly fell silent.

Especially when the unscrupulous Onmyoji's question reached her ears, it made her heart clench.

No words,

He glanced up at the little monsters from Seven Horns Mountain with whom he had briefly traveled, but both the frail monster girl and the audacious little squirrel who had previously tried to eat him showed fear after their eyes met.

That guy carrying two swords must be one of the kings of Seven Horns Mountain.

Although there was no clear indication of hostility, the other party subtly positioned themselves in front of their companions, their taut hands suggesting they were ready for battle at any moment.

There haven't been any drastic actions yet, probably out of consideration for this bastard Onmyoji.

Ah, yes.

His current appearance would frighten and terrify even those traveling with him, so who could he possibly see?

I can't see anyone.

Not to mention her.

'Wow. '

As his thoughts reached this point, the chains that had been coiled around his back like eerie snakes all fell to the ground, or rather, slipped from his wrists at their source.

After calming down, he could clearly feel a hidden force slowly seeping into his body through the chains in his hands.

Even though the monster that served as the vessel is dead, it can still affect someone like him, which is a truly terrifying thought.

"I will rest after the next battle."

"But now, I can still keep things in check."

He looked directly at the Onmyoji in front of him and spoke slowly and deliberately.

"There's really nothing I can do about you."

"All right,"

"However, I will teach you another principle of human nature."

"There is no end to the money in this world, and even if you earn a lot of money, you still need to be alive to spend it."

Ara raised his hand and gently patted Kidomaru's shoulder, the implied message of "take care of yourself" was self-evident.

The latter did not respond to this, but there was a subtle emotional fluctuation in his narrow, demonic eyes.

After remaining silent for a short while, he turned around, intending to follow in the footsteps of that unscrupulous Onmyoji and continue deeper into the forest.

But just as he was about to make a move, he suddenly realized that a little girl was standing timidly in front of him.

She has an adorable, delicate appearance, but to Kidomaru, a demon, she is nothing more than a potential prey.

Moreover, she was more concerned about the great demon standing not far away, watching the girl nervously, than about her beautiful appearance.

If I could have a proper fight with them, then this trip would be perfect.

Unfortunately, under the constraints of that bastard Onmyoji, this is highly unlikely to happen.

Therefore, he didn't even bother to ask any questions; he merely glanced at the object and then turned to leave.

But at that moment, the girl standing in front of him suddenly spoke:

"that,"

Its crisp sound reveals tension and fear.

Upon hearing this, Kidomaru, who had already turned most of his body to the side, did not answer, but remained standing there, giving the yokai girl who dared to approach him a cold, sidelong glance.

"This, this is an owl's feather. It has some protective abilities and may be of some help to you in the future."

"Thank you for saving Komatsumaru from the monsters before."

"Please take it."

Although Kaoru involuntarily took a small step back when their eyes met, she still mustered up her courage and spoke to the demon in front of her.

As she spoke, she raised the owl feathers, which were faintly visible in her palms, high in the air with both hands.

This situation was somewhat beyond Kidomaru's comprehension, and he subconsciously wanted to look at the unscrupulous Onmyoji and seek his guidance.

But the fading footsteps beside him told him that the bastard had no intention of guiding him this time.

Suddenly, a nameless sense of irritation welled up inside me.

Rescuing the little squirrel was not his true intention; it was merely to obtain more rewards, and he had already received the corresponding rewards from that despicable Onmyoji.

"Thank you for saving Komatsumaru earlier."

The little squirrel, which had been hiding behind the mountain wind, cautiously poked half of its body out.

She is a much stronger demon than Kaoru, so she can sense the former's power more clearly and specifically.
