Chapter 64

The rules of the final selection are still so simple. You just need to survive for seven days on Fujixi Mountain, where countless evil spirits are hidden.

The rules are very simple, and Shinichi finished them quickly. However, noticing the concerned eyes of the swordsmen in front of him, especially the Butterfly Sisters, Shinichi couldn't help but mention, "Fighting evil spirits is not a simple matter. Injury and death will always be with you. Please think carefully before you step into Fujixi Mountain!"

However, Shinichi's words did not shake any of the swordsmen present, and no one withdrew. In fact, every swordsman who came to participate in the final selection had a reason not to give up. Many swordsmen, like the Butterfly Sisters, had their relatives killed by evil spirits. Their ambition was to join the Demon Slayer Corps to avenge their relatives.

Seeing that no one withdrew, Shinichi sighed imperceptibly, and the sun was about to set.

"The final selection begins, I wish you all good luck."

Shinichi walked to the entrance of Fujixi Mountain, and under countless blooming wisteria flowers, he watched the swordsmen step into this trial field one by one.

Finally, when the Butterfly sisters passed by him, Shinichi couldn't help but call out to the two sisters, "Wait! Kanae, Shinobu!"

Kanae and Shinobu stopped, and both looked at Shinichi with confusion.

Shinichi opened his mouth, but he couldn't say "Why did you join the Demon Slayer Corps?" He held it in for a long time, and finally just said dryly "Long time no see."

Kanae smiled gently, bowed slightly and responded, "Long time no see, Shinichi."

Shinobu Shinobu had a stern face, but seeing that her sister bowed, Shinobu had to bow slightly with her, but she didn't say hello, and Shinichi wouldn't care about it.

"It's still very dangerous on Fujira Mountain. Pay more attention to safety. If possible, try to save some energy and don't worry too much about fighting evil spirits." Shinichi reminded softly.

"Okay! You're so nagging. We're not kids anymore. Sister, let's go in quickly!" Before Kanae could speak, Shinobu took the lead and said impatiently, pulling up her sister's sleeve and walking into Fujiki Mountain.

"Ala, Shinobu, you're too anxious. I'm so sorry, Shinichi-kun. Thank you for your reminder. Please rest assured. Shinobu and I have also practiced very hard. Goodbye." Kanae was pulled by Shinobu, and she turned back and waved to Shinichi while walking.

Shinichi also subconsciously raised his hand and waved, saying softly: "Goodbye..."

Soon, dozens of swordsmen all entered Fujiki Mountain, and only Shinichi and several members of the hidden team were left at the entrance.

Shinichi folded his arms and sat on a wooden box, his expression a little absent-minded.

When Shinichi was stunned, a hand suddenly appeared in front of him, holding a glass bottle in his hand, and a glass bead was sealed in the bottle mouth.

"Want a bottle? This is marble soda, delicious, very popular in the city." Goto raised the soda in his hand to indicate.

Shinichi shook his head, "Thank you, no, I'm not thirsty."

Goto didn't say anything, pressed the glass beads of the marble soda down with a click, lifted the mask and drank a big gulp, and burped.

"Do you know those two girls?" Goto asked.

Shinichi nodded, and then told Goto everything that happened in the Butterfly Medicine House, and then added: "I don't know where they got the teachings from. Isn't it too cruel for the two girls to kill evil spirits? Isn't it better to live peacefully as ordinary people?"

Hearing Shinichi's words, Goto immediately had an opinion and retorted: "What are you talking about? Shinichi, you are typical prejudice. What's wrong with girls? Can't girls join our Demon Slayer Corps? Can't girls kill evil spirits?"

Shinichi was stunned, and then explained: "No, that's not what I mean, I just said..."

Goto waved his hand to interrupt Shinichi, and said earnestly: "Okay Shinichi, I know what you mean, but Shinichi, have you ever thought about whether the best choice you think is really suitable for others?

Many members of the Demon Slayer Corps, like the sisters, lost their loved ones because of evil spirits. If they can choose, everyone certainly does not want this tragedy to happen, but we cannot choose.

Everyone knows that it is good to live in peace, but can everyone really forget the relatives killed by evil spirits? The deceased relatives may always appear in your nightmares, making you never forget them. Many members choose to join the Demon Slayer Corps because they are unwilling to escape from all this.

Although everyone's talents may vary, our goals are the same, to eliminate evil spirits, otherwise the tragedy we have experienced will be...The drama is repeated in other families. This can be regarded as the self-redemption of each member of our Demon Slayer Corps. "

"Is that so?" Shinichi pondered in silence. What Goto said made sense. Sometimes, what you think is a good choice is not the best choice for others.

"Okay, don't think about it. Since the lord asked you to host the final selection, you should put aside your distractions and concentrate on completing the lord's orders. Really, you are obviously an A-class swordsman, but you still need me, a hidden, to remind you. You are really an immature child. "Goto patted Shinichi on the shoulder, muttered a few words and left.

And Shinichi looked at Goto's back, smiled and shook his head, and said self-deprecatingly: "That's right, you are already an A-class swordsman, but you are still so immature. "

Goto's words made Shinichi, an "adult" who was over 30 years old in both lives, feel a little ashamed.

Shinichi stood up suddenly and raised his arm. Soon, Eizo flapped his wings and fell from the sky, landing on Shinichi's arm. At the same time, there was a chaotic flapping of wings above Shinichi's head. Looking up, he saw more than a dozen crows hovering above Shinichi's head.

"Eizo, please take your companions to keep an eye on Fujikiyama. If there is any unexpected situation, please notify me immediately."

"Ka! "Eizo called out loudly, rubbed his head against Shinichi's index finger affectionately, and then flapped his wings, rushed into the sky, and flew to Fuji Mountain. More than a dozen crows followed Yingzo's figure and flew towards Fuji Mountain.

Shinichi looked at the crows going away, then lowered his head to look at the chubby Yuaner who was snoring at his feet.

He squatted down and rubbed Yuaner's chubby body hard, "Yuaner, it's time to work. After completing this task, I'll take you to the Yinbu cafeteria for a big meal!"

"Ahhh!" Yuaner, who was originally lazy, immediately perked up when he heard the word cafeteria, and excitedly called out to Shinichi twice, and then rushed into Fuji Mountain like a flash of lightning.

Shinichi stood up, patted the non-existent dust on his body, and looked at Fuji Mountain in the night, "The final selection has begun."
