Chapter 100: Inosuke Hashibira

“It’s so hot! So hot! Aaaaaaahhh!!”

In the dark night, two figures burning with pink flames were running back and forth in the open space, while Tianyin, who was standing by, looked at them helplessly and murmured softly.

"I told you not to go there..."

Then he shouted loudly at the two people who were screaming.

"Don't run anymore, stop now, or you'll faint from exhaustion!"

But how could the two people who were suffering from the unbearable heat just stay where they were and let it burn? They turned their eyes to the stream not far away and took a step forward to run towards it.

But Tianyin saw their intention and spoke up to stop them in time.

"Water cannot extinguish this flame..."

Maidong stopped walking and Youchiro turned to Tianyin in despair.

"So what is this thing? And what should we do now?!"

After thinking about it carefully, Tianyin didn't know what the Divine Flying Snow was exactly, and he and Youichiro had no idea what to do now.

I could only speak slowly to him as if guessing.

"This is the treasure that Mr. Hirata sold to the Demon Slayer Corps. As for you two brothers... it's better for you to lie down first and not move around to waste your energy..."

Gritting his teeth, Youichiro cursed in his heart, but he still listened to Tianyin's words, forced himself to calm down, and lay on the ground. Seeing his brother do this, Wuichiro naturally did the same.

Gritting their teeth, the two tried hard to resist the burning sensation that was constantly coming from their bodies. However, after a while, whether it was because the ground was particularly cold on autumn and winter nights or for other reasons, the burning sensation seemed to have subsided.

At this moment, I just feel like I'm being exposed to the scorching sun. It's painful but acceptable.

The two people who were twisting and struggling before now calmed down, put their hands on their chests and waited quietly for the powder flames to dissipate on their own.

Seeing this, Tianyin also breathed a sigh of relief, but at this moment, a voice sounded behind her, making her heart rise to her throat again.

"what happens?"

He quickly turned around and saw a wild boar head with gray hair and blue eyes appeared in front of him. He was about to scream, but suddenly he remembered that the previous voice was particularly familiar.

Looking up, he saw that the pig head was held in Busui Kawai's hand. He let out a sigh and looked at Busui Kawai with some worry.

"Just now, a ghost attacked... Brother Tokito was holding him back... I secretly used the God's Snow to get rid of him..."

Hearing this and looking at the two pink figures on the ground, Busei instantly understood what had happened. He sneered and pretended to be ignorant.

"These two rookies were defeated by the evil spirits. How pitiful! They have already reached the cremation stage."

When they heard Busei's voice, the Toru brothers sat up together and roared at Busei.

“Who are we cremated because of?”

And Yuichiro was obviously even angrier, and after saying this, he looked at Busei with sarcasm.

"I don't know who was the one who boasted before he left, saying that there was nothing to be afraid of even if there were thirty more of the Twelve Demon Moons, but you and that Hirata showed up later than the other!"

Ichiro thought that he could irritate the other party, and thought that even if he got beaten, it would be worth it just to see the other party get furious.

But what he didn't expect was that Busei didn't care at all. Instead, he looked at him as if he was a fool.

"How could Hirata come back so late? You just didn't notice him."

Hearing this, Ichiro laughed out loud.

"Oh, how is that possible? You are probably just talking nonsense out of anger..."

Before he could finish, the wolf's voice sounded behind him.

“…Good job…”

After saying that, he walked straight past Youichiro, still playing with the magical little pot that Wuichiro had held before, which could release flames. Youichiro immediately reacted and was furious.

"Damn it! They're using us as experiments!"

Hearing this, the wolf stopped, thought for a moment, then took out many small pots from his arms and placed them in front of the two brothers.

“…Thank you.”

After saying thank you, he walked to Busei Kawai, but when he saw what he was carrying, he showed a rare look of surprise.

At this time, Ichiro also saw the wild boar in Busui's hand. Although they could only see the pig's head due to the perspective, Ichiro still rolled his eyes and asked him.

"So you came back so late because you went to hunt a wild boar?"

Fortunately, this time Ichiro saw the constipated expression on Busui's face, and before he could be happy, Busui turned the thing in his hand over and showed it to everyone.

“Actually, I picked up a person…”

Everyone was shocked to see that what extended from under the pig's head was not a pig's body, but a young but quite strong body.

When seeing this creature with a pig's head and a human body, Wuyilang spoke first.

"Wow, it's a pig spirit!"

And Busei rolled his eyes and said to him.

"Stupid, didn't I tell you I'm a human..."

As he spoke, he took off the wild boar head from the child in his hand, revealing the beautiful white and tender face inside. Wuyilang immediately covered his eyes shyly and stammered in a low voice.

"You're a girl! Why aren't you wearing any clothes... How embarrassing!"

As he said this, he tried to cover Yuichiro's eyes, but Yuichiro dodged it easily. At the same time, he slapped Wuichiro lightly on the head and pointed at the handsome child who looked about the same age as them and said helplessly.

"Are you stupid? Well... um... your body is obviously that of a boy."

When Muichiro heard his brother Youichiro say this to him, he suddenly became angry.

“…Why do people say I’m an idiot…My brother is also an idiot!”

"Um!?"

The two burning figures immediately ignored Tianyin's instructions and started tearing at the ground.

Ignoring the two children's 'playing', Tianyin walked to Busei Kawai, took the boy from his hands, and asked him curiously.

"How is this going?"

Seeing Tianyin asking questions, Fuzugawa squinted his eyes and began to recall, telling Tianyin and Lang about the scene at that time.

"I walked in the direction Hirata pointed, but I couldn't find the ghost. When I was about to return, this little ghost rushed out of the woods, shouting 'Give the delicious food to the mountain king!' and attacked me..."

Having said that, Busei didn't continue because the result was obvious.

Tianyin looked at the boy in her arms, stroked his handsome face, and murmured.

"What a strange child..."

Just at this moment, the boy in his arms suddenly opened his eyes. His emerald green eyes stunned Tianyin, and then he slipped out of Tianyin's arms like a loach and picked up the pig head that Busikawa threw on the ground.

He put it on his head, ran in front of the crowd, and made a gesture to them that he thought was very intimidating.

"Hahaha!! Let's give this food to the great mountain king - Hashibira Inosuke!"
