My avatar is the heroine

At dinner time, Mitsuri Kanroji ate more than fifty bowls of rice and dishes, which made Tanjiro very envious.

"Wow, that's amazing! I wish I could eat that much too."

"Really? I ate less today," said Kanroji Mitsuri, resting her chin on her hand.

Yukino's eyelids twitched: "That's terrifying, we can't afford to raise them."

The portions are outrageous; many of the bowls are bigger than your head. This is enough for dozens of people, and it probably wouldn't be enough for one person.

After finishing her meal, Love Pillar focused her attention on Yukino.

She had changed into Qiong's clothes, and in addition to her own fragrance, she also carried Qiong's scent.

However, this infatuated girl didn't care at all; she liked anything that Su Lin transformed into.

Her goal was to find a strong person, and now she clearly has one.

Obanai Iguro no longer wanted to talk to him; she must be heartbroken.

The miniature Nezuko approached Mitsuri with an adorable expression, and after receiving a few pats on the head, she ran up to Yukino.

The same head pat.

Come to think of it, I don't think I've had much interaction with Nezuko since arriving in the Demon Slayer world. But it seems like this little one has a good impression of me too.

"By the way, Tanjiro's missing a Nichirin Blade, right? I heard this village has a secret weapon that can make you stronger. You could go look for it," Mitsuri Kanroji suddenly whispered in Tanjiro's ear.

Although others couldn't hear it, Yukino, with her exceptional hearing, still managed to pick up on the information.

I guess I'm about to meet that one-person doll. It seems the enemy's attack is imminent.

"I need to see the lord," Yukino stated directly.

"Eh, should we disturb the lord at a time like this?" Kanroji Mitsuri asked doubtfully, but because Su Lin's clone had made such a great contribution, she eventually reported it.

So, before nightfall, Yukino came before her lord.

"Tell me what it is, my dear child."

It seems that they have already treated Yukino as an ordinary member of the Demon Slayer Corps. The Master has a smile on his face and calls Yukino a child, speaking to her in a very gentle tone.

At that moment, four pillars were standing around him.

"Today or tomorrow, Muzan may send demons to attack. As far as I know, there are at least two Upper Moon demons. The possibility of Muzan coming in person cannot be ruled out."

After all, the situation had taken an unexpected turn, so Yukino tried to make it sound as serious as possible. Some things are better believed than not, and the consequences of the slightest oversight could be disastrous.

“I will take your words into account, but I want to know, how exactly did you find out about Muzan’s actions? You know, for so many years, our Demon Slayer Corps has had no way of knowing about Muzan.”

"Perhaps it's just intuition; I have a slight sense of the dangers that are about to occur in the future," Yukino casually made up.

"Hmph, I think you're a spy sent by Muzan, aren't you? Your knowledge of the Demon Slayer Corps, especially of Shinobu Kocho's past, means you likely found out about her through some means. Without a doubt, the source is the demon who killed her sister—Upper Moon Two, Doma. This means you probably know him." The hot-tempered Wind Pillar, Sanemi Shinazugawa, gripped his weapon tightly. "And the fact that you can control the Upper Moon you killed is strange in itself. Everyone knows the relationship between these demons and Muzan; it's impossible for them to be controlled. I suspect those demons aren't dead; it's just your conspiracy to take advantage of the Demon Slayer Corps' inattention and strike."

"Sanemi," the lord said, giving a warning after he finished speaking.

"My lord, why are you still considering him? This person is very problematic; he might even be Muzan in disguise. Let me kill him." Shinazugawa Sanemi said, brandishing his weapon, ready to strike.

However, the Flame Pillar beside him stopped him, saying, "With his strength, he would have already made a move if he were capable of doing so."

“That’s right. I believe that Su Lin and these girls are all perfectly fine. Their past achievements are obvious to all. He would never do anything to harm the Demon Slayer Corps.”

So the controversy passed, but Yukino wondered if her lord had been deliberately involved in the matter.

But it doesn't matter. In fact, it's normal to be suspicious. To the people of this world, Su Lin's existence is a bit strange in itself.

After that, all the members took Yukino's words seriously and began to prepare to face the enemy. The swordsmiths were asked to hide in a safe place.

Everyone was even prepared to welcome Muzan's arrival.

However, considering Muzan's cautious approach, Yukino felt that this battle would likely be the same as the plot, with only two demons arriving.

Sure enough, that night, when a small pot appeared somewhere on the village road, everyone knew that the battle was about to begin.

Upper Moon Five: Jade Pot.

Upper Moon Four: Half-Heavenly Dog.

The former was a man carrying a kettle, and the latter was a decrepit old man.

The first to greet them were not the Pillars, nor ordinary Demon Slayer Corps members, but Upper Moon Six siblings and Upper Moon Three Akaza.

Among them, Upper Moon Six is ​​paired with Jade Pot. Although this guy's pot is very powerful and can trap people underwater and suffocate them, it is difficult for him to face two people at the same time.

The combat power of the Upper Three is superior to that of Hantengu.

Chapter 168 God's Words: Head Severed

Akaza? Impossible!

Upon seeing a fellow with Upper Moon Three etched in his eyes, whose aura and strength were identical, standing before him, Hantengu's eyes widened in disbelief.

"You betrayed Lord Muzan?"

He's not dead... He really isn't dead, and it doesn't seem like he's faking it. Akaza in front of me is perfectly fine, and his aura is strong, but Muzan-sama definitely believes he's dead.

But in reality, this guy sided with the enemy.

This is absolutely, positively impossible.

Akaza didn't answer him, which made Hantengu both angry and uneasy.

In fact, even the relationships between the Upper Rank Demons were a mess. If it weren't for Muzan's absolute control, they probably would have already started killing each other without the Demon Slayer Corps even having to lift a finger.

For example, when Upper Moon Three faced Upper Moon One's Black Death Eyes, he had the urge to kill him.

However, compared to the internal dissatisfaction, the current situation is indeed more despairing.

Among the enemies is a being capable of silently controlling demons. In several battles, Muzan has been able to share the memories of the Upper Moons, allowing him to see who killed them.

Therefore, the biggest suspects are the mysterious girls like Kurome, X, and Yukino.

In his initial fury, Muzan calmly ordered the Upper Moons to eliminate all members of the Demon Slayer Corps, leaving none alive. The most important task was to kill anyone wearing a certain type of earring, and the second most important task was to eliminate the Pillars.

As for Kurohime, the girl he considered a Pillar, she was on the priority list for handling.

Hantengu's ability is quite unique; several demons reside within one body. When its neck is severed, it splits into demons with different emotions. After several splits, the strongest demon, representing hatred, emerges. Only by simultaneously severing all of its heads at that point can the target be considered killed.

It could be said that dealing with this demon is even more difficult than killing Upper Moon Three, because one of its bodies is only the size of a rat, and it is very timid, only knowing how to hide and run away.

Without a word, Akaza charged forward under Kurome's control.

A palm.

Because he deliberately allowed Akaza to break his neck, Upper Moon Four did not put up any resistance at all.

Almost instantly, he split into a ghost holding a tin staff and a ghost holding a fan.

"It's been separated!"

"It's so good that we're separated..."

The Staff Demon slammed its staff into the ground, generating a tremendous electric current. However, this electricity had negligible effect on Akaza, so the Fan Demon unleashed a ferocious attack, even snapping nearby trees.

It's useless. Upper Moon Three is definitely stronger than the opponent, not to mention that Upper Moon Four hasn't fully split yet.

In the second attack, the target split into two: a winged flying demon and a demon wielding a spear.

“Akaza, demons cannot kill demons. Even if you are stronger than me... no, even if you have the weapons of the Demon Slayer Corps, you cannot deal with so many of my bodies at the same time.”

The Upper Moons knew more or less about each other's backgrounds, and Upper Moon Four naturally knew how powerful this guy was. But in terms of how difficult he was to deal with, Half-Heaven Dog was definitely much more formidable.

"Who said only he can deal with you?"

Black Eyes suddenly appeared and easily severed the spear demon's neck.

In terms of combat skills, these old ghosts who have lived for hundreds of years are really no match for this teenage girl, Kuroko.

The different laws governing the worlds they were born from resulted in different limits and achievements for both sides. The most wondrous aspect of the system is that it allows Black Eyes to use abilities permitted by the laws of other worlds in this world.

The target split again, and then the black pupil directly opposite it took the brunt of the target's sonic attack.

"Uncomfortable..."

After all, she was just an ordinary little girl, not a monster like Yukino, and the attack caused her a slight pain. The electric current from the Staff Demon also struck, forcing her to grit her teeth and retreat.

This time, it was Yukino who went up.

Yukino held the sword forged from her own body in her hand. With a single swing, she unleashed a burst of frost and flames, along with the power to counter demons.

The target's neck is broken again.

The organs affected by the aftershocks also showed signs of being reclassified.

Rikka Takanashi also joined the battle this time, her automatic weapon with eyes flying in all directions, searching for the coward who had run away.

Soon, the Love Pillar, Flame Pillar, and Serpent Pillar also joined the battle, along with Genya and Tanjiro.

This lineup is so much stronger than the original story. The only downside is that several of them haven't been able to activate their Demon Slayer Marks.

But it doesn't matter, it's enough to terrify Upper Moon Four.

When a ring appears behind him, and a ghost with multiple "hate" characters written on it appears, a wide-range wooden dragon attack is unleashed.

It was as if the Tree World from the Naruto world had descended, with countless vines and thick branches instantly appearing and launching an attack on everyone present.

Love Pillar smashed through a tree with a single punch, demonstrating a power that instilled fear in its opponent.

"Su Lin... no, Hei Tong, you must accept me."

"So what's with confessing your love on the battlefield?"

Seeing the Love Pillar's adoring and longing gaze, Yukino was speechless.

The biggest problem this girl has always faced is not being able to find true love. In her previous relationships, she scared people away because of things like her hair color and physical strength.

So her dream is to find a man who loves her.

But I guess those men were worried they couldn't afford to support her because she ate so much.

One person can eat as much as forty or fifty people; how terrifying is that?

The mournful cry also appeared, and the strength he displayed was simply the strongest among the Pillars. With a meteor hammer, he pierced through the trees and smashed into Upper Moon Four's body.

Taking advantage of the opportunity, Kuroko accelerated, enduring the electric current from the Staff Demon, and severed its head with a single strike.

It can't split anymore.

Akaza's attack was equally ferocious. Taking advantage of the Gun Demon's recovery, he once again snatched its head and then charged towards the Fan Demon.

Upper Moon Four was quite frustrated this time, unable to unleash his true power against so many strong opponents.

The bird-like demon in the sky was also injured by Rikka's magical power.

"Explode, reality, endless—the thunder of destruction of all things, the core of a supernova explosion, the spear of cosmic destruction!"

Okay, no matter how much nonsense we spout, the power can only get infinitely close to the upper limit of the Evil King's True Eye activation.

However, this attack also carried hypnotic, poison, mental damage, and paralysis effects, causing the bird-man ghost to fall to the ground after a series of screams.

“Announcing your end, God says, head severed.”

Snapped!

Legend has it that some fantasy novels love to describe great prophetic abilities, where whatever the gods say will happen.

Actually, God said that with light, even the Upper Moons would be finished off, but it's just that we're afraid Muzan will be scared away, so it's a bit more complicated.

"You monster!"

The bird-man's head flew automatically into Rikka's hand.

This battle is in the bag.

Chapter 169 New Pillar?

"Compared to me, you are inferior in both quantity and quality. Do you still dare to dream of surviving? You pathetic creature." Holding the head in her hand, Rikka mocked her opponent mercilessly.

The bird-man's expression was one of extreme terror. As one body after another was beheaded, he drew ever closer to death.

At this moment, only that rat-sized creature remained, its neck so stiff it couldn't be cut off.

"Let me do it."

Black Eyes landed in front of the old man, and with a flash of his hands, he appeared behind him.

The little devil was still completely bewildered when he realized that his body was gradually moving away.

The head... fell off.
