The Warrior of Love

Besides, he has to return to the Type-Moon world to save his family and protect his father, stepmother and sister.

He must become stronger, and keep becoming stronger, even if it means he has to face all kinds of dangers!

"I won't stop..."

In the dim candlelight, Jiang Liu looked at his right hand, most of the skin of which was burned.

"Since I've survived, there's no reason to stop."

First of all, make sure you are safe from this unfamiliar environment!

"Boom-"

At this moment, a dull sound suddenly came from the large urn placed in the corner of the room, which startled Jiang Liu.

"Rat?"

Chapter 6: Could the start be any worse?

"squeak--"

Under the dim candlelight, a gray figure jumped out from the corner in the blink of an eye and disappeared into the darkness in an instant.

"Huh...it turns out it really is a mouse."

Jiang Liu breathed a sigh of relief, and the wound on his chest began to hurt again.

"hiss--"

To be honest, the strange noise just now really made him a little nervous. After all, those large jars looked a little weird no matter how you looked at them, and the current environment could almost be said to be a scene from a horror movie, giving people a feeling that something might run out of them at any time.

Fortunately, it was just a mouse...but in this case, Jiang Liu's attention was naturally attracted.

After hesitating for a moment, Jiang Liu began to slowly move towards the corner.

Fortunately, despite suffering such severe injuries, his body miraculously retained basic mobility, but it was really slow. If he moved a little bit bigger, it might affect the wound.

It was only a few meters away, but Jiang Liu took nearly a minute, being very careful not to make too much noise. After reaching the corner, he opened the lid of the large jar and took a tentative look inside.

The candlelight was too dim, and he couldn't actually see clearly what it was, but the stench and indescribable fishy smell that hit him in the face almost made him vomit.

Rotten meat - this is the first thing that comes to mind.

Although both were rotten and spoiled, the smell of food and flesh after they had spoiled was absolutely different. Jiang Liu quickly determined which side the things in the large jar belonged to.

He suppressed the stomach acid that was about to reflux and opened a few other large jars. However, the air only smelled worse. They were all filled with the same thing.

Jiang Liu covered his mouth and nose and closed the lid of the jar again, but the smell in the room would not dissipate for a while.

Almost at the same time, Jiang Liu determined that there was something wrong with these containers!

The historical background of "Demon Slayer" is during the Taisho period in Japan. It is normal that there are no electricity in the countryside, but looking at the appearance of this room, it doesn't look like a wealthy family, so where did all the meat come from?

Even if a hunter happens to obtain a large amount of prey, he will definitely pickle or smoke the meat. He will never leave it in a clay jar and let it rot!

"call!"

After letting out a long breath, Jiang Liu struggled for a moment, but he finally opened the lid again and even reached a hand in -

I tried hard to ignore the terrible feeling as if I was sliding through mud, and when my fingertips touched something hard, I took it out decisively.

"This is……"

He covered his mouth and nose with his other hand, and placed his left hand, which was covered with dark brown unknown liquid, together with the hard object that was taken out, under the candlelight for observation.

In just a moment, Jiang Liu recognized what it was: teeth.

Human teeth, to be exact.

"It's terrible...haha." Not sure whether he was crying or laughing, Jiang Liu's mouth curled up in a subtle arc.

Human teeth are very distinctive, and are clearly different from those of ordinary livestock, and the one he was holding was undoubtedly the real thing.

This means that what is in the jar is...

Jiang Liu's face turned pale, but at least he was mentally prepared and didn't spit it out directly.

"I'm speechless. The one who found me turned out to be a ghost?"

Normally, shouldn't she be a beautiful girl carrying a heavy past, just waiting for the protagonist to save her? Jiang Liu is worthy of being a man who has faced the end of the world to be able to think of this at a time like this.

"Demon" is the evil creature in "Demon Slayer" and the enemy of the protagonist.

Almost all of them were created from the blood of the Demon King "Muzan". They were once human beings, but after becoming demons, they crave human flesh and blood and cannot control their appetite, becoming beasts dominated by desire.

Ordinary methods cannot kill them because even the lowest level ghosts have a certain degree of immortality. Even if their heads are chopped off, their hearts are pierced, and their bodies are cut into pieces, they can still be restored.

Their only weakness is the sun. Like vampires, they will turn into ashes if exposed to direct sunlight. Even the Demon King Muzan himself is no exception.

In addition, the only weapon that can pose a threat to it is the Sun Blade, a weapon made from a special ore that absorbs the power of the sun and is specifically used to kill evil spirits.

The combination of the Nichirin sword and a fighting technique called "breathing method" will give humans the ability to kill evil spirits. The samurai who target evil spirits are the "Demon Slayer Corps", which is the camp of the original protagonist.

Since Jiang Liu has come to this world, the ideal situation is naturally to find a member of the Demon Slayer Corps first, try to join them, and work hard to learn breathing techniques, master swordsmanship, and improve physical fitness at the same time.

If all goes well, you may be able to team up with the original protagonist and join the main storyline against the Ghost King, which will increase your chances of becoming stronger.

However, he encountered the opposite development: the first thing he encountered was not the Demon Slayer Corps, but man-eating evil demons!

Although I don't know why the human flesh was stored instead of being eaten on the spot, the only suspect who can think of someone who would collect so much human flesh is a demon.

"Did they let it rot on purpose? It has a unique flavor."

Shaking his head to drive the unreliable thoughts out of his mind, Jiang Liu's face became serious and he began to examine his current situation.

There were no weapons in the room, and he had nothing to defend himself with. Although the door seemed unlocked, this body couldn't run far, and the evil ghost that had escaped for some reason could come back at any time...

"Well, it's over."

Jiang Liu grinned unconsciously: "Waiting to die?"

-

"Shh!"

The door was roughly opened, and two figures appeared in the simple room under the moonlight.

"A-choo, um... This smell is still as bad as ever. There must be something wrong with your brain that you like this kind of thing."

One of the figures said in dissatisfaction, while the other remained unmoved and just raised his nose to sniff the air.

"Strange, I should have sealed everything." Only then did he see the situation in the room clearly and was stunned for a moment.

The candlelight had gone out at some point, and the entire room seemed very dim. However, thanks to his inhuman night vision, he could clearly see that the "snacks" he had treasured and collected were now scattered on the ground, and large clumps of unknown substances mixed with liquid flowed out of the large jar, completely contaminating the already dirty tatami.

"What happened? Was there a stray dog ​​running in?!" Shocked and angry, this was the first thing he thought of. Because he was so heartbroken, he actually forgot about a certain "thing" that should have been in the room.

"Even wild dogs would stay away from this kind of garbage. Eating it would only cause stomach upset. Only a pervert like you would like it."

The other person's voice was somewhat gloating: "How about taking this opportunity to get rid of your quirk? It was because of your unfortunate hobby that we were exposed and targeted by the Demon Slayer Corps, and had to run to this remote place."

"That's enough. Didn't I already tell you that it wasn't my fault? I was just messing with a corpse. The warriors were clearly coming for a murderer like you.

Don't mess with me anymore. I finally got some fresh ingredients today, but I resisted the urge to "process" them, so I called you over to share with me."

"Hey, you idiot, is your brain full of shit?" another person sneered, "Or is it this kind of rotten meat that is worse than shit? Haven't you noticed yet? Your so-called fresh ingredients have escaped long ago!"

"what?"

The ghost with a special taste was stunned for a moment after hearing this, then looked around the room and started shouting.

"Damn it! It's actually like this!"

"Tsk, what an idiot." His companion smacked his lips in disdain.

Large urns scattered on the ground, rotten meat splattered everywhere, candles half buried in the rotten meat, vaguely visible messy footprints...

From all these signs, it's easy for people to imagine what happened here.

A man woke up from a coma. He felt extremely uneasy in the unfamiliar environment and naturally became curious about the conspicuous black urn placed in the corner. So he took the only light source in the whole room - the candlelight used by evil spirits to attract lost people at night, to explore the mystery.

There seems to be no need to say more about what happened next. The man saw what this thing was and was so frightened that he knocked over the black jar and destroyed the evil ghost's collection.

Then, of course, the terrified humans began to flee for their lives...

"What are you thinking? Even if you don't kill it directly for the sake of freshness, you should at least tie it up."

"Stop talking nonsense!"

The food that was about to reach his mouth flew away, and the owner of the room was in a very bad mood.

"I found him on the mountain road. He looked like he had lost his soul and was almost like a corpse. I just wanted to call you over before he died... I didn't expect he could still be alive."

"You are just too stupid... There is no other way. We must catch them back. We were almost killed by the Demon Slayer Corps, and now we might be chased by others. We can't let anyone escape alive, otherwise we will definitely attract those samurai."

"no problem."

The ghost was confident: "That guy won't be able to run far, and he smells like my lees, so I can find him no matter where he goes."

"The only advantage you have left is that you have a good nose, humph!"

The two ghosts accused and mocked each other, and then ran out of the room in a hurry to look for "ingredients" without waiting for a moment. The room returned to a dead silence, leaving only a disgusting stench and a mess on the ground...

It was not until ten minutes later that an inaudible sigh of relief came from under the floor.

Chapter 7: Hunting in the Dark

In traditional Japanese wooden houses, there is actually a small space between the floor and the ground.

The legendary "Ninja" would often choose to drill into this narrow space to eavesdrop or assassinate when performing missions. It is said that some Ninjas could even hide under the floor for several days in a row, waiting for their target to arrive without making any noise.

This time, Jiang Liu learned from a ninja and acted as "Voldemort". Although it was not very professional, it was good enough.

Didn't run away directly? Of course!

Use this tattered body to escape from the evil spirits in the strange dark night?

How is this any different from turning your back to a wild beast?

Jiang Liu estimated that if he really ran away, he would be caught up within a kilometer, even if the evil ghost came back later. After all, he really couldn't run fast in his current state.

It's a bit funny to say, he was a man who dared to chat and laugh with the World-Destroying Demon God in the last world, but in this life he was forced into such an embarrassing situation by two small-time evil spirits.

But there was nothing he could do, because his body was still weak. Even in the last world, he had to rely on the spiritual protection of the three mechas to face the Great Demon.

Honestly speaking, after clearing a world, Jiang Liu did not grow at all. Even if we put aside those skills, in the process of long-term contact with the Great Demon God's consciousness, he had already grown his mental strength to an extremely tenacious level.

This is why in the final battle, he can harass the Great Demon and assist the three Mechas.

But this cannot change the fact that he is seriously injured!

Mental power is not a superpower. Jiang Liu's injuries will not heal automatically, and he cannot use things like telekinesis - he did not have time to learn the skills to convert mental power into physical attacks.

At present, his only means of attack is the mental "stun bomb", which is a very crude mental shock. However, this puts a heavy burden on the brain, and it is the kind that kills one thousand enemies but loses eight hundred of his own. Considering his current physical condition...it is better not to use it if possible.

Hiding under the floor seems to be risky because evil spirits, like wild animals, are extremely sensitive to the smell of their prey (humans).

But Jiang Liu created a perfect "crime scene" and used that weird human wine lees to cover up his smell.

Let alone an evil spirit, even if Tanjiro, the protagonist of Demon Slayer, came, he would probably be suffocated by the stench and would not be able to tell that there was a person hiding underneath.

Besides, this room was where Guo Jiangliu was imprisoned, so isn't it normal to smell some "human scent"?

"Susu..."

About ten minutes after the two evil spirits left, Jiang Liu slowly moved his body and crawled out of the narrow space under the floor. Of course, he was covered in dirt, but when he saw the bright moonlight and stars outside, he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

"That way, I have about two hours... No, demons are much faster than normal people, so I guess it'll only be an hour. Come on, my cute little mice, the faster you run, the more time you can buy me."

What the two ghosts were chasing was not Jiang Liu who was there, but the rats that were covered with "wine lees" and were running away at the mental suggestion of Jiang Liu.

Mental suggestion - this is not an inherent skill, but a technique that Jiang Liu has developed himself.

In the previous world, the Great Demon had invaded his dreams many times... As the saying goes, long illness makes a good doctor, so he naturally learned some tricks like hypnosis and bewitching.

However, he is still far from that and cannot be compared with the big guys like the Great Demon, Ancient Gods, and the Old Ones. Let alone controlling people's hearts, it is difficult for him to force suggestions on primates like monkeys.

Therefore, his ability is actually closer to "communication".

Low-level insects have no intelligence at all, but high-level primates have very high intelligence. Things like mice, cats and dogs are just within Jiang Liu's control.

It may be difficult to order them to "die", but it is easy to just make them panic and run away.

Jiang Liu made about ten mice roll in the wine lees, and then they fled into the dark forest.
