Demon Slayer: Upper 0 seems to be a waste

Chapter 220: Chaos into a pot of porridge

"You rude brat!"

What hit the head was not the hard back of a knife, nor the sharp and dangerous blade, but even if it was a hand knife formed by putting the palms together, it would still hurt when it actually hit the forehead.

"pain."

Lin Guang did not dodge or evade, but took the lesson firmly before speaking and giving a crisp evaluation.

"It's okay if it hurts! Didn't I tell you to call me Master Tianyuan?"

Obviously, the man did not feel guilty about this. He retracted his four fingers, leaving only the index finger, and pressed Lin Guang's head again and again.

"Why should I call you Master Tianyuan?"

Lin Guang blinked. The hand that tapped his head occupied most of his vision, but even so, he could still see the man's dissatisfied face from the corner of his view.

What an overly arrogant face, exaggerated makeup, and an even more exaggerated headdress. What is that on the forehead, a gem? And what is hanging down, a stone?

"Of course, it's because I'm the god of magnificent celebrations!"

What nonsense is this.

Lin Guang blinked again, and he reached out to move the hand that had been tapping his forehead away little by little. After the thing blocking his vision was removed, the whole face came into view. It was different from the partial view he had just seen, but seeing the whole face did not change his perception at all.

He's really a person who dresses very exaggeratedly...

Does he have some special fetish? Speaking of which, with his face done up like this, Akaza might have something in common with him...

"Listen carefully to what I say and don't let your attention wander! You're such a complete non-champion from the beginning to the end!"

His eyes gradually became empty, his fingers just paused there after he moved his hand away, and his face showed no expression at all. The boy's distraction was too obvious. Tianyuan pulled out his held hand and was about to hit the other's head again.

"My name is Rinkou. I'm not a brat. I'm a ghost, but a very powerful one. I'm also a rude weirdo."

But this time the blow did not land firmly on the target, and the falling hand was caught halfway by the palm that had just broken free. Although it was just to teach him a lesson and not much strength was used, it was still somewhat surprising that it was caught so steadily.

Just as Butterfly said, and just as Tianyuan had previously thought, it looked completely human, yet it had no sense of existence at all. He called it a human only because he had never seen a ghost that looked that weak.

But contrary to appearances, both its reaction and strength are exactly the same as a ghost.

"Boy, it looks like you have some skills."

"Exactly. More than a little."

"I didn't stand a chance against you last time in Yuguo, but now it seems like you haven't improved at all."

The tone of objective commentary was the simplest and most effective provocation. Lin Guang's reaction to the provocation was not strong, but his interest was ultimately piqued.

"You think you're so great, weirdo? In my opinion, even Kyojuro is much more powerful than you."

It was also an accurate comment, but the man surprisingly was not angry at all. Instead, a smile appeared on his face.

"I'm serious, weirdo, do you want to try it?"

Although it didn't feel very good, Lin Guang was very bored at the moment, and having someone come to his door was a way to pass the time.

This was definitely not Shinobu's original intention, nor was it the scene Kyojuro would have anticipated.

Although he had received news from Crow on the way back that Butterfly had found someone to accompany Rinko, Kyojuro still rushed back as soon as possible because he remembered their agreement.

So this happened to be the case.

It was an astonishing movement.

As soon as they approached the Butterfly House, they heard strange noises. The little girls could only hide in the corridor and didn't dare to get any closer. When they saw him coming, they rushed over worriedly and said that there were terrible noises in the house. However, because Butterfly had told them not to go near that room, no one dared to go in to see what was going on.

Kyojuro comforted the frightened girls, held down the blade and rushed into the room. After opening the door, he saw a dazzling scene.

The sound of chains clashing, the explosion of blades cutting through the air, the clatter of walls and floors being stepped on, each sound was as lively as a concert.

It looks like it's going all out...

"What a big noise! ​​It scared the kids in the Butterfly House! What are you two doing?!"

"Kyojuro!"

Before his eyes could react, his body tensed up and he felt the impact before he even raised his hand. He caught the guy who threw himself into his arms completely by instinct. The moment he realized what it was, he quickly carried the guy into the house and closed the door.

The other protagonist in the field stopped because he lost his target. The long sword in his hand turned flexibly as if it had its own thoughts, and was finally hung back behind his back.

This brings the concert to a close.

"Hey, Kyojuro, you completed the task so quickly and magnificently, even earlier than I expected."

Tianyuan put away his knife and swept it around.

It's incredible. It would be fine if he just paid attention, but this kid was like a mad dog, running and jumping all over the room, on the ceiling and walls, and he didn't even knock anything down. Isn't this better than a cat's reaction?

"Yeah! Because I promised Rinko that I would come back immediately if I could make it! Speaking of which, what is Uzui doing with Rinko?"

Although he was indeed shocked by the flash of sword light when he first entered the scene, after a little observation, Kyojuro realized that the two people were just chasing each other with much ado about nothing, but they looked just as dangerous when the swords were swung past.

"I'm playing. Because Tian Yuan keeps provoking me."

"Hey! Brat! I told you to call me Tengen-sama! And! Stop pestering Kyojuro like a little brat!"

The hand reaching out to catch was one step ahead, but the leg that stepped out to dodge still made the opponent's capture plan fail.

Linkou hid behind Kyojuro, deliberately showing only her head and sticking out her tongue at him.

"No, Tian Yuan is Tian Yuan. There is only one person in this world whom I can call an adult, and you don't count."

The provocation was so obvious that it almost turned into actual malice.

"Show me some respect, little brat! I'm the Sound Pillar!"

The boy didn't know when to quit, and as soon as the other party reacted, he added fuel to the fire.

"The sound pillar that even a child can't catch, Tengen."

"Alright, alright! Stop arguing! Rinko, apologize to Tengen. You can't say that to him! Tengen, you too! Rinko is our comrade now! Showing your blade towards your teammates is not allowed!"

Before everything escalated into the next battle, Kyojuro immediately stood between the two and became a solid barrier.

"Hey, Purgatory, whose side are you on? It was this guy who offended me first."

"It was you who looked down on me in the beginning and used strange words to describe me. You were the one who was rude."

"Alright! Let's shake hands and make peace!"
