Demon Slayer: Upper 0 seems to be a waste

Chapter 110 Nuclear

Nightmare found a few helpers, and the work efficiency was visibly improved. Lin Guang's initial doubts about this decision gradually dissipated after seeing the decisiveness of these children.

After all, those kids wouldn't get in his way, and this was Nightmare's territory, so as a guest, he could just watch the fun.

"Just wrapping a rope around it can kill someone?"

Lin Guang picked up the rope, which looked like an ordinary rope, and swung it. Whether it was the appearance, weight, or touch, it was no different from the rope he knew.

"Because my blood is fused into it, just like the train ticket, it's just a medium. The operation still relies on me."

Nightmare patiently explained to the boy.

"If Rinko is so curious, do you want to try it?"

His tone was unusually gentle, and he seemed to have no ill intentions, but his eyes were staring straight at Lin Guang, like a beast lurking in the darkness.

"Okay."

Lin Guang agreed readily, even though Yu Hu was completely yelling at him to stop it in his head.

"Are you crazy, you little brat? That guy has been staring at the upper string position. Don't you know that? If you really want to die, you might as well get into my stomach!"

The voice in his head didn't stop until the rope was tied around his hands, and the other end of the rope was tied around the girl's wrist.

"Should I destroy his core..."

The girl looked a little helpless. She had been with Lin Guang and the others for a while and knew that the relationship between these two ghosts had always been very good, but now, she was going to kill one of them... Was this something she could do?

"You can try it, it's okay, right, Rinkou?"

Nightmare spoke softly. Lin Guang glanced at them, his silence as a sign of agreement. Then, without hesitation, he looked at the hand.

The mouth on the back of his hand opened and closed, and in the process, Rinkou closed his eyes and fell into the chair. He fell into a deep sleep.

"Can I really destroy his core?"

After tying the rope, the girl asked again uncertainly, and Nightmare nodded affirmatively this time.

"If you can destroy his core, I will give you a sweet dream."

The meat hanging in front of the eyes is the most attractive to hunting dogs. The girl's gaze changed from wavering to firmness in just one sentence. She clenched the rope with her hand, took a deep breath, and slowly adjusted her state, counting silently in her heart until she fell into a dream.

----

It was another long dream that lasted until his head was chopped off. When he opened his eyes, the rope was still around his wrist. He was still able to wake up, which meant...

"How strange...why? Even though he's been sleeping for so long, this kid still hasn't been able to destroy the core..."

Nightmare tilted his head in confusion and looked at the only girl who knew the answer. Unlike Rinko who had been sleeping very soundly without moving, the child frowned shortly after closing her eyes, and her breathing became gradually rapid, as if she was in great pain.

The girl opened her eyes a little later, as if she had woken up from a nightmare. She knelt on the ground and gasped for breath. Lin Guang sat up and looked over, tilting his head in confusion.

"What happened?"

Nightmare shared the same confusion as him, and both of them looked at the girl who was gasping for breath.

"Not at all! There's no nuclear weapon! Ghosts don't have nuclear weapons, right?"

The girl raised her head and yelled uncontrollably at the two ghosts in front of her.

"No, although I won't use blood demon arts on demons, but logically speaking, Rinkou's dream should also have a core."

Nightmare immediately denied the girl's words, but the latter stood up shakily from the ground, holding the back of the chair next to her, and shook her head fiercely.

"Impossible! There's nothing there! It's pitch black, I can't see a thing, there's only snow on the ground! Snow everywhere! The wind is like a knife... it hurts more than a knife when it picks up the snow! There's nothing but wind and snow! I've looked everywhere! There's nothing! It's completely pitch black!"

It would be more appropriate to describe her as collapsed rather than excited. It was hard for Lin Guang to imagine what the girl in front of him had experienced.

“Eh? Really…”

Nightmare dragged out a smile, stroked his chin with his hand, and looked at the boy with interest.

"Rinko is so docile...it's incredible..."

Nightmare had never thought of stepping into other people's dreams before. Such behavior was risky. If the mind was trapped in it and the body was attacked or the mind was damaged, it would be too dangerous.

But it was rare that he became curious about what Lin Guang's unconscious realm would be like and what its core would be like. He was very curious about both.

“Thank you for your hard work.”

What was it like to be in an endless snowstorm? What was it like to be in a wind as sharp as a knife, and what was it like to be in a snowstorm that was more painful than a knife? Lin Guang didn't know, and he had no interest in experiencing this kind of pain. He just looked at the girl who collapsed to the ground after her rage, and teased her leisurely.

"You're lucky, kid."

An indignant voice echoed in his head. Lin Guang supported his head and responded silently.

"It's not that I'm lucky, I just feel like I won't die here."

Such words would undoubtedly lead to stronger rebuttals, so after saying this, Lin Guang regained his consciousness, quickly closed the door, and did not listen to any more words.

"Speaking of which, I heard that this train is going to be sent for maintenance. Where are you going then?"

"We'll probably find someplace else to hide for a while. Those guys in the car have been making quite a racket lately. They might attract some stronger ghost hunters, or even the Pillars."

A Pillar? Rinkou propped up his head, not feeling the worry of a nightmare. Rather, he was actually looking forward to meeting a Pillar. Kyojuro and Shinobu were both Pillars he knew. He had also seen a guy before, as tall as a boulder and overly muscular. That guy seemed to be a Pillar, too. Speaking of which, the guy who sat with Kyojuro before...was his name Sanemi? That guy seemed to be a Pillar as well.

Although Muzan told him to make more friends, humans are fine, but those from the Demon Slayer Corps are the best.

But the number of Demon Slayer Corps members he knows now...isn't that a little too many?

If those guys really swung knives at him like in his dream, should he dodge backwards or stand still?

"Come to think of it, where is Rinkou planning to hide?"

Nightmare's words brought Lin Guang out of his memories, and he shook his head slightly.

"I'm not going anywhere. I'm just staying here."

Nightmare might need to dodge, but for Rinkou, he was already concealed enough by not hiding anywhere. He was not afraid of those ghost hunters, and he was confident that he could shake off those pillars he didn't know.

And if I stay and hang out with the 'stray dogs' lingering in the carriage, the chances of encountering members of the Demon Slayer Corps should be higher.

(Snow and Wind)

Tsumugi has seen the unconscious areas of many people and has also been involved in the dreams of many people. Sometimes she will observe other people's dreams more, and sometimes not.

Now is not that kind of special situation. The Lord promised that as long as she destroys the core of this guy, he will give her a good dream.

Although she didn't know what had happened between them to get to this point, and although the boy hadn't been bad to them normally... she needed a good dream, a happy dream that belonged to her.

So even if it was a child who looked younger than herself, she would not hesitate. Besides, this guy was also a ghost, and the infighting among ghosts could not be blamed on her.

The boy was having a dream that took place at night. The moon was high in the sky, illuminating the entire night. The owner of the dream was in front of the cabin at the foot of the mountain. She chose a direction with that place as the center and started running until she hit an invisible wall. The sharp awl pierced through the invisible wall. In just a moment, a strong wind gushed out from the crack. The wind brushed across her cheek like a blade. Tsumugi subconsciously touched the side of her face. The invisible wind did not cut her flesh, but the degree of pain did not decrease at all.

This is a world Tsumugi has never seen before.

It was pitch black, the endless darkness seemed to be able to swallow people up, and the moonlight here could only barely illuminate a small area in front of the eyes, and the ground was a blurry white.

The squeaking sound of her shoes made her realize that it was a snowy field.

The wind blew up without warning, blew hard, and then stopped without knowing it. There were no buildings or signposts in the dark snow. After walking for a while, she could no longer find the direction she came from. Even though she ran desperately and sweated profusely in the snow, she could not find anything that looked like a core.

During this time, the constant wind blew up the snow on the ground, almost taking away a layer of her flesh.

It didn't seem like she was here to assassinate someone, it felt more like she was thrown here to be tortured.

I can't find it, I can't find it anywhere. There's nothing in the snow, nothing in the sky. Looking around, there's nothing but endless darkness.

Just wind and snow.
