Chapter 24: Betrayal

Ren poured the last of his strength into his hands.

Shadowless Hand!

A black shadow was slapped away by Ren.

Fortunately, the opponent seemed to be very weak and couldn't stand up for long after being knocked to the ground by Ren.

Ren covered the wound on his back and took two sharp breaths of cold air.

Just now, he was running his breathing method, but his lungs were also damaged to some extent due to the sudden injury.

Fortunately, no vital organs were injured on his back.

Moreover, the wound wasn't deep, and it seemed that the opponent was very weak—a mere demon.

But when the black shadow in the distance slowly stood up, Ren was stunned.

"Old man?!"

The person in the shadow was the old man he had met at the foot of the mountain!

No wonder he didn't have much strength.

Although his mental power was exhausted, Ren had always been on guard against demons, able to detect even the weakest of them.

But Ren, subconsciously, hadn't considered the old man a threat, giving him the opportunity to strike!

But...

Why did the old man assassinate him?

How had he gotten to the top of the mountain?

The next moment, the old man provided the answer.

"What are you doing?" The old man wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and roared angrily, "Look at the good deeds you've done! How could the turn me into a demon after you killed them?"

The old man looked around at the chaos in the room, unable to accept it.

He had put in so much effort, planning to turn into a demon tonight!

But Ren had ruined everything!

There was only one female demon left in the huge house—the other had already died!

The incompetent and furious old man finally vented all his anger on Ren.

Ren fell into rare silence.

["Did you know? Sometimes, there are things more terrifying than human hearts and demons. Many times, I've saved them, but they don't appreciate it at all. They even bluntly say they want to become one of the demons!"]

At that moment, Ren finally understood the meaning of Kocho Shinobu's diary.

Sometimes, the human heart was scarier than demons.

People would help demons harm their own kind and even become one of them for their own desires.

Ren understood everything now.

Why were there people at the foot of the mountain, which was clearly teeming with demons?

Why hadn't the first demon he encountered gone after the old man first, instead of targeting him?

Even Ren couldn't figure out why Kocho Shinobu had been injured at first because he hadn't found any traces of winding here.

But Ren had overlooked one factor.

People.

Ren finally understood how Kocho Shinobu had been injured.

His eyes became colder.

The wound on his back felt like a ray of burning sunlight.

Soon, the old man made another move.

He saw Mukago sobbing softly on the ground, and with his last bit of hope, he rushed toward her.

"Please, turn me into a demon! I have cancer and will die soon!"

"Please, I don't want to die! Let me live!"

The old man burst into tears, looking pitiful.

Mukago blinked, glanced at the old man, then bit his neck.

The old man was overjoyed.

He died the next moment.

Ren watched all of this indifferently.

The contents of Kocho Shinobu's diary flashed in his mind.

["I'm very angry. I want to kill them! But I'm a member of the Demon Slayer Corps and I can't do that."]

But What does the demon-slaying have to do with me, Ren?

After putting aside these unrealistic thoughts in his mind, Ren silently raised the knife in his hand.

He walked toward Mukago, who was still devouring the old man's flesh.

There was still some minced meat on her mouth; she looked like a starving beast.

Ren showed no reaction as he raised the knife.

He silently observed her.

Although wisteria flower poison would inhibit the regeneration of demons, if demons consumed a large amount of flesh and blood, the toxin would weaken accordingly.

Ren silently kept this in mind.

Seeing Mukago swallow the last bite of meat while feasting, Ren picked up the knife and chopped off her limbs again.

She finally couldn't hold it any longer.

"Why?! Why do you do this to me?!"

"Obviously, as long as I survive, I will be the Lower Moon Two!"

"Obviously, as long as I kill you, I will be promoted!"

"Why is the world so unfair?! No! I can't die! Never!"

Phew!

Ren expressionlessly slashed at the demon again.

The accompanying wisteria flower toxin couldn't help but make the demon roar in pain.

Perhaps knowing she couldn't escape, she suddenly laughed maniacally.

"Hey, you care about that butterfly-colored girl! Our people stabbed her!"

"She was supposed to be the one who died tonight! Master Douma liked this girl very much!"

"I think when Master Douma eats the last bite of her meat, I can get some of it! Hehe!"

Click!

Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!

Ren raised the knife, swinging the Sun Blade, and cut the demon's head into powder.

But even after doing all this, Ren didn't stop.

Instead, he continued wielding the Nichirin Sword, cutting a half-meter-long hole in the floor before he stopped.

Douma... That's the name again.

Unexpectedly, the leader of the demons, demon king Muzan, would agree to let Douma gather Lower Moons to act. This was beyond Ren's expectations.

Just when Ren lowered his head and thought about this...

He heard some movement beside him.

Ren turned his head indifferently.

It turned out that Wakarube, who hadn't completely died yet, had now crawled next to Mukago's headless body.

While the female corpse had not dissipated, Wakarube opened its mouth and began eating like a wolf.

"You're really hungry," Ren shook his head lightly.

He walked up to the other demon and performed a skull-crushing operation on it.

Ren sent the body away.

---

Night.

A group of people strode across the middle of Natian Mountain, making their way to the summit.

They wore black clothes, equipped with sun disks at their waists, with a large word "Annihilation" written on the back.

The leader was a young girl.

She wore a rainbow-colored feather fabric, her purple-black hair tied up high with a delicate butterfly hairpin.

However, her hand appeared to be injured, and bright red blood stained half of her sleeve.

"Ninja-sama, stop and take a rest!"

Seeing how hard Kocho Shinobu endured, a team member couldn't help but step forward and say.

But Kocho Shinobu shook her head.

They had been here for several days. If they delayed any longer, the battle would soon be lost.

The enemies on the mountain were very smart and knew they couldn't defeat them, so they began using various vampire techniques to interfere, attempting to trap them alive on the mountain.

Moreover, Kocho Shinobu had suddenly been attacked by an old woman at the foot of the mountain, and the team's strength had been compromised for a time.

Why were demons gathering in crowds?

Kocho Shinobu had been thinking about this question.

"Is that the demon with the fan?" She suddenly recalled that disgusting figure.

Apart from that demon, Kocho Shinobu couldn't think of anyone else who could command all the demons.

Just then, a Demon Slayer member suddenly pointed forward, saying excitedly, "Look, the road ahead has changed!"
