My clone invades all realms

Steel Mound Firefly practically fled in panic.

After he delivered the sword, it should have been a momentous occasion, since it was a bright red Nichirin sword, the lifelong pursuit of any swordsmith.

But right now, all he wants is to stay away from that boy named Roya.

The stench of blood that emanated from the very marrow of his body sent chills down his spine, even for this big man who wielded a hammer all his life.

Before leaving, he didn't forget to pull Urokodaki Sakonji aside and whispered mysteriously, "Old man, your apprentice... his methods are a bit wild. You'd better keep an eye on him and make sure he doesn't use his sword inappropriately."

Urokodaki Sakonji did not answer, but his gaze beneath the tengu mask grew even more profound.

Inside, the atmosphere was somewhat tense.

Luo Ya casually stroked the bright red blade with his fingertips, savoring its unique texture.

Nichirin Blade is a powerful weapon against demons, but its material is not top-grade and it is easy to break.

However, once it masters Nen or Haki, the fate of this sword may be different.

"What's with that murderous aura emanating from you?"

Urokodaki Sakonji sat cross-legged on the wooden floor and asked in a deep voice.

Luo Ya paused in stroking the blade, then said calmly, "It just appeared naturally like that."

The experiences and memories of the clones all returned to the original body, and the original body then spread everything to the clones. The killings in the Hunter world affected all of Roya.

However, this murderous aura was impossible for members of the Demon Slayer Corps, an organization with such keen senses, to conceal.

Moreover, it was once a water column.

Urokodaki Sakonji, of course, did not believe it.

The murderous aura was extremely strong; it could only be created by the deaths of at least a hundred people.

But if a major case involving hundreds of deaths were to occur in this area, it would have caused an uproar long ago.

Moreover, Luo Ya had been staying in the Misty Mountains the whole time, never leaving, and had been under his watchful eye the entire time.

No matter how you look at it, it doesn't make sense.

As for the claim that he concealed his presence from the very beginning?

Urokodaki Sakonji didn't believe that Roya had the ability to hide such a huge killing intent in front of him without making a sound.

He took a deep breath, suppressing the heavy doubts in his mind: "Fine, I won't ask about your secret anymore, but you must remember, never go astray because of your obsession with power."

"I know," Luo Ya replied casually, clearly not taking it to heart.

Just then, a jet-black raven flapped its wings and flew in through the window, landing steadily on the roof beam.

"Gah! Roya! Makomo! Mission assigned!"

"In the northern part of Songwu Town, someone is missing!"

People are disappearing every night! Find the ghost lurking in the town and slay it!

"Roya! Makomo! Please be careful, this is your first time slaying a demon!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Roya sheathed his sword with a clang, grinning, "A demon? Only one?"

That's not enough.

The amount of energy required to open the fourth world is not small.

There's no way to find a replacement in the Hunter world for the time being, so all our hopes are now pinned on the demons in this world.

The crow froze, its black bean-like eyes blinking, its beak opening but seemingly stuck.

This reaction is wrong!

Shouldn't they be looking serious and on high alert? Why do they sound like they're complaining?

"Never mind, we'll go somewhere else later." Roya pouted.

He already had a few good locations in mind, such as Yoshiwara, where an Upper Moon demon was hiding. With his current strength, he should be able to make a run for him.

And there's also Mount Natagumo, where a lower crescent moon is located.

Let's start with these two places and take it slow.

I just don't know how much energy a powerful ghost can provide him.

"Then, let's set off today." Roya gripped the hilt of his sword and stood up.

"Do not underestimate our enemy!" Urokodaki Sakonji's voice came from behind, his voice heavy: "Demons can make countless mistakes, but you, if you make just one mistake, you will die."

"Don't worry." Luo Ya waved his hand without turning his head.

A crow flew onto his shoulder.

"Makomo, let's go."

"Mmm!" Makomo quickly got up, sheathed her azure Nichirin Blade, and hurried after him.

……

Night fell, and a bright, full moon hung high in the sky.

On the rooftop of the town of Songwu, Luo Ya stood against the wind, the moonlight casting a mysterious silver rim around him.

Makomo beside him was also warily looking down at the entire town shrouded in a thin mist.

Luo Ya closed his eyes and expanded his five senses to the maximum.

Although he has not yet mastered Observation Haki, his physical acuity is already far beyond that of ordinary people.

The ears twitched slightly.

A short, sharp scream came from the depths of the alley in the distance.

"Found it."

Luo Ya opened his eyes, and before he could finish speaking, he had already leaped off the roof several meters high, landing silently on his feet.

Makomo followed closely behind, the two of them moving swiftly through the intricate streets like two ghosts.

They quickly located a secluded house.

"Bang!"

Luo Ya had no intention of using the door; he simply kicked the wooden door, shattering it into pieces.

The scene inside the room instantly came into view: a small, thin demon was about to extend its claws at the woman who had collapsed to the ground, but upon hearing the noise, it suddenly turned its head.

"Sorry, I'm in a hurry."

Roya's voice still echoed in the same spot.

"Light and Shadow!"

He pushed off with his feet, leaving a blur in his wake, and appeared before the evil spirit, a red blade that had been drawn from its sheath and was now silently falling.

He didn't even use breathing techniques.

The demon's expression froze in shock; it hadn't even seen the other's movements, only feeling a chill on its neck.

The next second, its head rolled to the ground, while its body rapidly turned into black ash.

With a flick of his wrist, Luo Ya executed a beautiful sword flourish, drawing a cold arc in the moonlight before neatly sheathing the blade with a clang.

The rescued woman still had her mouth open, unsure whether she should continue calling out.

"Alright." Luo Ya didn't even glance at her before turning and leaving.

Under the moonlight, the woman could vaguely make out his handsome profile, and a blush involuntarily rose on her face.

I think I should say something.

"benefactor……"

"The evil spirit has been vanquished, you don't need to know who we are." Makomo stepped forward with a gentle smile, standing between Roya and the woman.

The Demon Slayer Corps is an unofficial, secretive organization that does not need to leave its name.

"Makomo!" Roya's shout came from afar.

Makomo then hurriedly followed.

The woman stared blankly at the two figures disappearing into the night.

no……

What exactly happened just now?

Her brain hasn't finished processing the information she just received.

In the distance, the faint sound of two people talking drifted over.

"Makomo, do you know which direction Mount Natagumo is in?"

"I know, it's not too far from here."

"Let's go there."
