"Alright, let's go our separate ways here."
Ryuga said indifferently to the three people behind him at the fork in the road at the foot of Fujiki Mountain.
"That's true, I should return to Mr. Linlong's place."
Saomon Tanjiro nodded with an expectant look on his face. "My sister is there too, I can't wait to see them."
"Ryuga Jann, Shan Yi, and Yamashita, let's go our separate ways here. Thank you for taking care of me this time, I hope we can meet again in the future."
"Mm, you take care too, Zaomen Kun," Yamashita replied.
"Eh?"
Only Shan Yi was shocked when he heard them talking about going their separate ways. He then rushed to Ryuga's side and hugged his thigh.
"I don't want to, I don't want to! I want Ryuga Jann to go back with me! "
It took less than five seconds for Shan Yi's expression to change from the smile on his face after he had passed the final selection to the tears on his face as he begged Liu Xia to go with him.
"Ryuga Jann, come with me from now on! That way, there will be someone to protect me, and I won't die miserably in the hands of ghosts! "
Ryuga lowered his head and looked at Shan Yi, who was hugging his thigh and crying loudly. There was no hesitation or pity on his face.
"Shan Yi, stop it …"
Tanji Jiro hurriedly stepped forward and grabbed Shan Yi's arm, trying to pull him off Ryuga.
"My wife, you're forcing me to do something I don't want to do."
Yamashita covered her forehead and looked at Shan Yi with an expression that said she couldn't bear to look at him.
Ryuga looked at Tanji Jiro and Yamashita in silence.
He had already established a basic persona in the Ghost Killers. In front of these two people, it was inappropriate for him to say something like, "The deal is over, and your life or death has nothing to do with me."
At the very least, Ryuga did not intend to ruin her character before using the Ghost Killers to complete the Spiritual Base Upgrade Mission.
However, this did not mean that Ryuga could not get rid of Shan Yi.
"Shan Yi, if you want to follow me, it's not impossible."
Ryuga's indifferent words made Shan Yi's spirits rise. Just when he thought that he could continue to receive Ryuga's protection in the future, Ryuga's next words mercilessly shattered his fantasy.
"Next, I plan to search for the 'Twelve Ghost Moons'. The so-called 'Twelve Ghost Moons' refer to the twelve strongest ghosts among all the Man-eating Fiends. Against the Twelve Ghost Moons, even I don't have the confidence to survive. With your strength, I'm afraid you'll be instantly killed by such ghosts."
"If you can accept the risk of dying at any time, you can leave with me."
The expression on Shan Yi's face suddenly froze.
Even Tanji Jiro and Yamashita froze in place, somewhat frightened by Ryuga's words.
Ryuga's strength was the strongest among them. She was so strong that she could completely crush all of them combined. However, even such a Ryuga said that she did not have the confidence to survive against the Twelve Ghost Moons. Then, how terrifying were the Twelve Ghost Moons?
Perhaps it was really like what Ryuga said, if he faced the Twelve Ghost Moons, he would be instantly killed, right?
Just thinking about this made Shan Yi unconsciously let go of Ryuga's thigh.
Liu Xia glanced at him and didn't say anything else. She took her suitcase, her zither case, and four katanas hanging from her waist. She turned around and left along the fork in the road, completely parting ways with the others.
Shan Yi could not risk his life to accompany her to find the Twelve Ghost Moons.
Ryuga also could not protect his life without any benefits.
People were selfish creatures, whether it was Ryuga or Shan Yi.
… …
Ten kilometers north of Mount Fujisaki, there was a small village with about forty to fifty families and two hundred people.
However, although a sparrow was small, it had all the essentials.
In this village, there was not only a small restaurant, but also a hotel that doubled as a bathhouse, and two grocery stores.
Ryuga temporarily stayed in the hotel, bought two sets of this era's clothes, and washed away the seven days of fatigue and dust on Mount Fujisaki.
Although he did not have the currency of this era, after selling a bracelet in his suitcase to a rich family, he had enough money to use for half a year.
At night.
Ryuga wore this era's pajamas and stood in front of the window of the hotel.
A pitch-black crow circled down from the sky and landed on the windowsill in front of him.
Ryuga stretched out his hand and held the black crow in front of his eyes. His amber pupils looked directly at it without any emotion.
"There is no mechanism on it, not even a letter."
Ryuga looked up and down at the crow, and there was a look of thinking in her eyes. "Such a bird is used by the Ghost Killer Team to communicate and pass information … You can't talk, right?"
It was no wonder that Ryuga thought so. In his original world, the [Type Moon] world, [Anonymous Spiritual Base] gave him the [General Knowledge] of the Inner World.
Magicians in the magic world usually raised some strange creatures as [Familiar]. Many of these creatures that became [Familiar] could not only talk, but also had the logical ability to talk with magicians. Some even had powerful combat power that could not be ignored.
Moreover, in the end, [Servant] itself was also a kind of [Familiar]. However, [Servant] was the highest level of [Familiar], and it could not be controlled by ordinary magicians.
"Ahem!"
The crow cleared its throat, and then spat out a hoarse voice from its mouth like a withered tree. "Of course ~ can ~ talk ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~"
Not only could it talk, but it could even drag out its voice.
"This is not just talking, but it can even talk. There is no mystery, but the Ghost Killer Team can do this. It's incredible."
Ryuga's tone was full of admiration. Then, he looked at the crow in his hand. "Since you can understand me, it's great. From tomorrow onwards, immediately arrange a ghost killing mission for me. It's best if there is a suspected evil spirit of the 12 Ghost Months. Do you understand?"
"If you can't do it, I'll roast you and eat you."
"Oh!"
The crow immediately trembled, and hurriedly flapped its wings and flew into the sky, making a panicked 'caw caw' sound all the way.
Ryuga watched the crow leave, turned back to the room, extinguished the oil lamp, and fell asleep.
He only hoped that he would not waste too much time in this world.
