Chapter 120: The rules of the ghost's eating and shuttle return
When Lu Xia heard this, he mobilized the small amount of magic in his body and gathered it into the stomach in his body, so that the magic power was integrated into the stomach.
"It works."
Ryusha nodded in surprise, the hunger from her stomach was indeed weakening.
In the hour since she turned into a ghost, Ryuxia has been suppressing her hunger as a ghost, in the world of [Demon Slayer] because there is a great enemy to deal with first, and when she returns to the world of [Moon] because it is still daytime.
He had planned to go out to hunt a few humans after the night came, but now that he learned that magic can suppress hunger, he didn't need to hunt for food for a short time.
"In our world, known as [Shigetsu], there were ghosts in ancient times in this country, and there are many powerful ghosts that are not inferior, and even surpass the oni dance Tsuji that you encountered, such as Ibaraki Boy and Sakutsu Boy, who still appear in various fantasy works, so I also know the habits of oni creatures."
[Two Rituals] raised a finger and introduced to Ryuxia: "Because magic is the essence of life extracted from one's own body, there is no problem in using one's magic power to erase hunger, but it is impossible to become strong because of it. ”
"Although the habits of oni creatures are also somewhat different because of the different worlds, they are generally not much different."
Liuxia knows that the reason why ghosts can become strong by eating people is also because they ingest nutrients in the human body - roughly speaking, it is because of vitality, as long as they ingest enough vitality, they can not only suppress their hunger, but also make their strength stronger.
The essence of magic is the life force extracted from one's own body, although there is a difference in form from flesh and blood, but in the final analysis, it is the same thing, as long as the magic is taken from the body and integrated into the stomach, it can relieve hunger.
It's just that because it's self-soothing and self-satisfying, it's like a ghost eating its own body parts, so it won't get stronger.
Because there is no such thing as magic in the world of Demon Slayer, ghosts can only relieve their hunger by eating people, but the ghosts in the world of [Moon] are different, they only need magic to suppress hunger, and most of them eat people because they are greedy, or they are malnourished due to lack of magic power, or they are simply to become stronger.
Lu Xia silently raised his head and glanced at the [Two Rituals].
The reason why she was able to say the name of Onimai Tsuji and knew his strength was probably because she watched his memories again.
[Two Rituals]'s face showed a subtle embarrassment at the right time, and then she immediately eliminated this embarrassment, and admonished Lu Xia with a solemn face.
"One more thing I have to tell you, Ryuxia, you'd better not eat people easily."
Her expression was very serious, and this was the first time she had shown such an expression in front of Ryuxia, like a strict father who was admonishing his son about the rules of life.
"Is there any particular reason?"
Ryuxia stared at the [Two Rituals], her gaze wandering over her, giving people a scrutinizing feeling.
"Reason? Hmmm......"
[Two Rituals] paused, then pondered for a while, and that look was not so much to wonder if the reason could be said, but to try to make up a plausible statement on the spot.
"Hmm...... Do you think, once you eat someone, don't you have the same filthy demonic nature as the ghosts you see in that world? It's easy to be targeted. ”
As if he felt that he had found a suitable reason, the [Two Rituals] eyes lit up, and then explained to Ryuxia.
This statement is not without reason.
The ghosts in the world of [Demon Slayer Blade], because they have eaten people, are always contaminated with a foul aura that is different from people, so that the swordsmen of the Demon Slayer Team can quickly find and then eradicate each other.
If Ryuxia also eats people, then his body will definitely be contaminated with that foul aura, although it will not affect his strength, but it will undoubtedly bring trouble to his future interpersonal interactions.
As soon as a person with a sense of justice senses the filthy aura on his body, he will never be willing to associate with him, which will add a lot of trouble to the benefits that can be easily obtained, and some may even plan to eliminate the evil.
Although even if it is a ghost, even if it does not eat people, like You Bean, it will still be contaminated with the 'demonic nature' of ghosts, but at least it will not give people a sense of filth, and it will only give people the feeling of being different races at most, not extremely evil people, and will not be too repulsive.
Even if Lu Xia has a B-level [Breath Blocking] that can perfectly hide his own aura, this natural demonic nature emanating from his body still can't be hidden, so it may be necessary to upgrade the [Breath Blocking] to A-level to be possible.
"Makes sense."
Ryu Xia nodded, but then changed his words, "But you don't have to bother thinking about reasons, I said earlier, you are better than me, as long as you give me an order, I will do what I can." ”
It's just that he doesn't eat people, Ryu Xia doesn't care at all, anyway, his ghost blood concentration has reached the bottom string, and cannibalism can't improve his strength much, as long as it can suppress his hunger and doesn't affect his usual actions.
Moreover, the food of ghosts is not indispensable, ghosts are only the staple food of humans, but ghosts can eat everything that ordinary humans can eat, but the effect is not as good as that of eating people.
"If you can, I don't really want to order you in that coercive way."
I don't know what I remembered, I sighed slightly, and my eyes became a little sad, "You have a lot of mandatory obligations that need to be completed...... Okay, aside, is there anything else you want to ask me? ”
Mandatory obligations?
Lu Xia's eyes flashed slightly, this should be a question related to the reason why the [Two Rituals] chose him...... But judging by her appearance of changing the topic, she probably doesn't plan to say more about this matter.
What he didn't plan to say, even if he was forced to ask, it would be impossible to ask it.
Although this woman may have a kinder personality, she has always carried out the ultimate mysticism, and her actions are always confusing.
"Yes, indeed."
Ryuxia didn't get into the horns of the bull's horns in the questions that couldn't be answered, so she quickly adjusted her mind and asked the doubts hidden in her heart one by one.
"Can I go back to the world I've been to?"
This is one of the doubts of Ryuxia.
Although the interests of the [Demon Slayer Blade] world have indeed been almost squeezed, this incident has reminded him that it is entirely possible for him to use the [World Passage] as a way to escape in the future, and if he escapes without having his vested interests in hand, he will definitely go back and loot again.
"No problem, you can go back."
[Two Rituals] replied very affirmatively: "After a month's cooldown time has passed, you can travel through the world again, you can communicate with the [Anonymous Lingji] in your body, and let it open the world passage of the previous world, there is no restriction in this regard, you can go back and forth between the worlds you have been to at will - and you can still trigger the Lingji mission when you return to the world you have been to." ”
"Even after the shuttle cooldown is over, it is completely feasible not to return to this world, but to directly make a second shuttle and go to other worlds."
