Chapter 4: I Took the Task

In front of a boulder that was split in two.

Tanjiro stood in front of the boulder in a daze.

"Ugh......."

Mr. Scales sighed and walked slowly.

Tanjiro turned his head and looked at Mr. Scale, who didn't seem to have recovered from the results of his own chopping rocks.

"Mr. Scales."

Mr. Scales reached out and touched Tanjiro's head, looking at his long hair, which had become unkempt due to his long exercise.

"Speaking of which, I didn't actually intend for you and Shepherd to participate in the final selection at all....... I thought you wouldn't be able to split the rock until the end, and I didn't want to see any more children die. ”

"Good boy, you really work hard, Tanjiro, you are really a very powerful child, you must live to pass the final selection, Tanjiro."

Mr. Scales hugged Tanjiro tightly.

"Your sister and me, as well as Shepherd, will be waiting for you here."

Tanjiro muttered, "Muxing, did he give up?" ”

"Hmm." Mr. Scales patted Tanjiro on the back, "He hasn't split his rock yet, he doesn't have enough strength, I won't let him die." ”

The voice did not fall.

Bang.

A golden glow flashed not far away.

There was the sound of stones rolling.

Mr. Scales was stunned.

Tanjiro was also stunned, and then looked at Mr. Scales and showed a bright smile, "Mr. Scales, I knew that Muxing would definitely do it, I can feel that he is very strong!" ”

"How is it possible, it's a rock bigger than yours," Mr. Scaly took a breath, "If I don't think it's possible on your side, it's absolutely impossible on his side!" ”

"Yo ~ Mr. Scale! Hi Tanjiro! In the final selection, I don't worry about you going alone. ”

In the fog, a figure approached, leaning relaxed against the rock that Tanjiro had split.

"It's too strong, how did you do it! I've seen your rocks, and they're so much bigger than mine! Tanjiro patted Xia Muxing's shoulder excitedly.

"That's it...... I'll go back and make you some delicious food with Nana, and I can celebrate your completion of this final practice. Mr. Scales seemed to think about something, and turned to leave.

"Mr. Scale, walk slowly!" Xia Muxing and Tanjiro waved.

Mr. Scales didn't turn around, just waved his hand.

When Mr. Scales is far away.

Xia Muxing looked at Tanjiro and mentioned it without a tail: "Rabbit and real mushroom." ”

Tanjiro heard this, and his eyes widened, "Muxing, are you also the rock that was cut under the guidance of the rabbit and the real mushroom?" ”

"No, you know, Rabbit and Maha......." Xia Muxing sighed and changed the topic randomly, "Tanjiro, I want to do an experiment." ”

"What, Shepherd, you're so strange." Tanjiro looked confused.

However, Xia Muxing's right hand made a sword finger shape, slashing in the air, and mysterious air currents gathered at his fingertips.

"The Supreme Pardon! Super Lonely Soul! Ghost everything! Four lives are gracious! ”

Curse of the Dead!

With Xia Muxing's spell.

Next to the boulder.

Two figures gradually appeared, and behind them, there were many children's figures, but they could no longer be condensed and formed.

"Bunny! And the real mushroom! Tanjiro shouted in surprise, "You just split the stone and you're gone, I thought you'd disappear." ”

The young man named Rabbit came to Xia Muxing.

"It's great."

The rabbit smiled, a little sad, but relieved.

"Sheikhoshi, Tanjiro, Mr. Scales will ask you in the future."

Xia Muxing nodded, "I will, and so will Tanjiro." ”

"This smell ......." Tanjiro's nose moved slightly, and he smelled a sad breath, from Xia Muxing.

The girl named Makoto also spoke.

"If you want to be a master and Tanjiro, you must win, especially that guy."

"Don't worry." Xia Muxing looked down at the knife in his hand, and swung it hard, hundreds of thousands of times, like an arm swing, "I'll overtake that guy with my own hands." ”

Hearing Xia Muxing's words, then everyone's figures turned into points of light and disappeared.

The mission panel, which had been silent for a long time, lit up.

"The hidden mission has begun, "The Last Wishes of the 13 Children".

The goal of the mission is to purify the obsessions and souls of the 13 children, and to surpass the alien ghosts in the final selection.

Upon completion, you will receive a Tier 1 World Chest token.

Current progress: Obsession 13/13√, Soul 0/13, Alien 0/1. “

Tanjiro, who was dazed, didn't seem to understand the situation yet.

"Mr. Scales used to have 13 disciples." Xia Muxing stroked the knife in his hand, "All died in the final selection, in the hands of a special alien ghost." ”

"What? Could it be that the rabbit and the real mushroom? Tanjiro seemed to think of something, and his breath became short.

"Gentle people, they will also be treated gently, that's the obsession of the rabbit and the real mushroom, they don't worry about Mr. Scales, and they are also worried about you who are about to participate in the selection." Xia Muxing sighed, "I have surpassed their obsession, I am almost invisible, and sticking to this only adds to the pain, I promise them to save their devoured souls." ”

"Count me in." Tanjiro took a deep breath, turned around, and bowed deeply to the place where the rabbit and the mushroom dissipated, "For this half a year, thank you for taking care of me, and I am grateful." ”

"Let's go, go home for dinner!" Xia Muxing closed the knife and closed the sheath.

============================

Lodge under the mountain.

Two young men who were in good spirits, dressed in new clothes, facing the morning sun, wearing fox masks on the side of their heads, holding a little girl's hand, ran into the distance.

"Mr. Scales! Here we go! Tanjiro waved.

"Mr. Scales! Let's go! Xia Muxing held Nana's hand and waved his hand to Mr. Scale.

"Go, children, Muxing, since you insist on taking Nana away, take care of your sister, Tanjiro, don't worry, I'll leave your sister to me!" Mr. Scales watched the figures of the three men disappear into the distance.

It seems to see that Tanjiro is preoccupied.

Xia Muxing couldn't help but speak, "Tanjiro, don't worry, your beans will wake up, just after we come back!" ”

Tanjiro scratched his head and looked distressed, "Muxing doesn't need to comfort me, you haven't woken up after sleeping for so long, I'm just worried about ......." ”

"Peace of mind, for sure, trust me." Mu Xing almost said, I read the script, your sister woke up.

"Thank you, Mosei" Tanjiro sighed.

"You're really so polite." Mu Xing sighed, pulled Nana up like a balloon, and floated behind him, "Nana, help me check the equipment sequence of the space storage compartment, and how long will it take for the Nichiren Knife to enhance the mimicry casting speed." ”

"Eh, eh, ????" Tanjiro was shocked.

"Ah, didn't I tell you? Nana can fly. Mu Xing smiled brightly.

"When did you tell me that kind of thing, hey!" Tanjiro shouted, "Could it be that Nana is also a ghost?" Is it a ghost with the ability to fly? ”

"You're the ghost!" Nana glanced at Tanjiro angrily, floated over, and the small fist hammered into Tanjiro's head, and then floated to the front of Mu Xing, "His Royal Highness Mu Xing, the space storage compartment is arranged in sequence, throw away two hundred useless items, and there are still one hundred items left, which are arranged in the order of recovery items, summons, functional consumables, etc., which can be customized by yourself, and the Nikcha Knife enhances the mimicry, the cast time is 0.5 seconds, and the duration can last, according to the same attribute value of Nana and His Royal Highness, the magic power can only be supplied for ten minutes." “

"Ten minutes is enough, don't call Your Highness, have you ever seen whose sister calls her brother Your Highness!" Mu Xing pushed Nana down from the air.

"What are you talking about? Why can't I understand? Tanjiro felt a little confused.

"Check the equipment." Muxing is a matter of course.

Tanjiro, looked down at himself, a set of clothes, a Nichiren knife, touched the mask on his head, a total of these few pieces of equipment, what else do you need to check???

Brush.

Out of thin air, Shepherd pulled out a massive, black six black tubes together.

"Tanjiro, do you know Buddhism?"

"Buddhism? What is that? ”

"Nam no Gatling Bodhisattva,

Six large clean tubes.

Three thousand six hundred revolutions in one breath,

Great mercy and compassion cross the world. “

"I don't understand what it means, but it's a powerful thing."

"Ahem, almost, it's just that this thing doesn't have bullets........"

"Your Highness, please stop playing in moderation, Tanjiro doesn't understand it at all!"
