Life at Hunter x Hunter

Chapter 449 Shadow Empire, Story

It was seen.

These monsters are completely different from the ones we encountered before. They are more rational and stronger.

Judging intensity is Tamayo's intuition.

Of course another reason is that she herself is not very good at fighting. Even though she has lived for so many years, she has spent most of her time on research.

In addition, since they don't eat humans and can't replenish their "nutrition", they naturally can't be very strong.

"There is no such smell on your body. It is really rare to find a ghost like you. Tell me why you are here." Crow Tengu did not attack Tamayo directly.

Stink?

But after considering the context, Tamayo understood one of the meanings.

Since leaving Muzan, she has been studying how to free herself from Muzan's control, while also getting rid of her own desire for food.

Of course this does not reduce her guilt, she will go to hell anyway.

The monsters here are indeed different.

"I want to meet the master of this place, the master of the demons and monsters behind you."

Tamayo chose a more rigorous name. Although these monsters may also be ghosts, it is not completely confirmed now, right?

Suddenly dark clouds began to appear.

There was a dripping sound and it started to rain.

"You are such a bold ghost. You actually want to see the master. Do you have the qualifications?" Another figure appeared.

Holding an umbrella, he slowly walked out of the rain.

Monster Rain Girl.

This is what Tamayo thought of immediately. Of course, she was looking more at the sky, and the moonlight was also blocked.

Is this the opponent's "blood magic"?

If the other party was a ghost, then forgive her ignorance, but she had never seen this kind of blood ghost magic.

If one possesses the vampire magic that can affect the weather, then one can also take action during the day.

Of course, Tamayo knows that some blood demon arts will be restrained by sunlight. Will this kind of blood demon art be restrained?

"She did come to find the adults, but her more important purpose is to understand us and see if we are ghosts." Another voice appeared.

The figure is a boy wearing a mask.

Monsters appear one after another.

"Ghosts? We are monsters. How can ghosts compare to us?"

The masked boy had barely finished speaking when the Rain Girl became dissatisfied.

"But you can't deny that part of our origin does come from ghosts." The masked boy was revealing important information.

But then he changed the subject: "So it's related to Muzan Kibutsuji? Is that why you came to get to know us?"

The young man looked at Tamayo again.

Tamayo felt like she was being seen through.

But hundreds of years of experience made her think instantly, could this be a monster?

"You guessed it right. I'm Wu Xingui, but I prefer people to call me Wu."

This masked young monster has the ability to read minds.

A voice came from the air, another Crow Tengu.

"Your Excellency already knows the situation here and plans to meet this ghost." The Crow Tengu was conveying orders.

The Rain Girl looked unhappy, and actually she was planning to take action because she was hostile to all ghosts.

"Come with us." Wuxin Gui began to lead the way.

So when I came to Kyoto, everything was under scrutiny?

Tamayo thought to herself.

"That's right. Kyoto is now under our control, and we know everything."

Wuxingui answered the questions in Tamayo's mind.

But then his feet loosened and his whole body sank into the ground, or more precisely, into the shadows.

This is!

Tamayo seemed a little flustered.

"Don't panic. You want to meet us, right? Then go to my base camp."

The ability of space is naturally also mastered by monsters.

The only difference is that the emergence of this different ability was due to Lucci's intervention.

Otherwise, it would be difficult to develop sufficient power relying solely on the development of Nekomata.

The shadow of the entire Kyoto is now under the control of Nekomata, or to be more precise, his "blood demon art".

Similar to the Invisible Empire in Death Note.

It was a huge space, and Tamayo could even see the moon in the sky.

Another Kyoto appeared in front of Tamayo. If it weren't for the previous changes, she suspected that she was still in Kyoto.

She was not stupid, she made various guesses and figured out where this place was.

How is it possible to have such ability? It's unbelievable.

Is this the real monster?

Tamayo's mind was in turmoil, but this also made the secrets in her heart more vulnerable to being spied on by the Wuxin ghost.

Even though she has lived for hundreds of years, Tamayo is not very skilled in managing her emotions. Sometimes, when she tries not to think about something, all kinds of thoughts will haunt her.

"So your goal is to kill Muzan Kibutsuji? I have to say that's a really ambitious goal."

Wuxin Gui’s words continued.

Tamayo knew that her heart was being constantly spied on, but she couldn't find a good solution. If she used her blood demon art, it might be seen as a provocation and she might die.

She was very familiar with the gaze of the Rain Girl next to her.

That is a kind of resentment towards ghosts.

Wu Xin Gui said so much, naturally he was also using words to stimulate Zhu Shi, wanting to find out more.

In fact, I also got a glimpse of a lot of things.

"But with your level, you won't have any chance even if you continue to live." Wu Xin Gui said bluntly.

This is not about stimulation, but about stating the facts.

Now, Muzan Kibutsuji can definitely be regarded as the real "Demon King" with the enhancement of Lucci.

He is also becoming more and more confident, but now he is still creating monsters and ghosts in order to become stronger.

There is another purpose, which should be to kill the adults.

Soon they walked from the original slums to the prosperous place, and then Tamayo saw an incredible scene.

In the prosperous area, she saw many monsters, and even monster children.

This is totally a world of monsters.

Do monsters really exist? But what about the previous statement that they are related to Muzan Kibutsuji?

There are more and more doubts in Tamayo's mind.

But Wuxin Gui stopped talking at this time.

Nijo Castle in Shadow Kyoto, which is also the residence of Nekomata.

As they entered Nijo Castle, Tamayo could feel that the powerful aura was becoming more and more intense.

These monsters are very strong.

Soon they arrived at a palace. The cat was already sitting at the top seat, with monsters on both sides.

The ones worth mentioning are all human-shaped monsters, of course some of them have other appearances, such as Crow Tengu.

The cat at this time is of course not the cat it used to be, but a young man, dressed in a somewhat modern style, with a knife on his waist.

"Sir, the person has been brought here." After saying that, they walked towards their respective positions.

There are six monsters on each side, twelve in total.

Now that they were here, even though she was a little worried and scared, Tamayo was looking around at everything without restraint.

I also fantasize that there is some possibility in my heart.

"Tamayo, I know you. Muzan Kibutsuji deceived you, so you wanted to kill him. If it weren't for Yoriichi Tsugakuni, you wouldn't be able to escape his control."

The cat looked at Tamayo with its vertical pupil eyes.

Tamayo was a little surprised. Apart from Muzan, her and Tsugaru Yoriichi, few people knew about what happened back then.

It's the Demon Slayer Corps. Time is like the vicissitudes of life and can wash away many things.

"You can call me Mo Ying."

"Lord Mo Ying, may I know what is your relationship with Muzan Kibutsuji?" After hesitating for a long time, Tamayo asked this question.

At least from the current situation, these monsters cannot be Muzan's subordinates.

This shadow city and the monsters here are really too exaggerated.

If she hadn't heard what she heard before, she would even suspect that monsters really existed, but this couldn't explain why she had only recently seen a real monster after living for hundreds of years.

"Come to think of it, part of the reason for their birth does come from Muzan Kibutsuji." Some things do not need to be hidden.

If you want to make up a lie, then the lie cannot be completely false, because it will be too easy to be exposed.

So they are all ghosts.

"Lord Mo Ying, you are talking about them." Zhu Shiyou quickly understood.

"You are very smart!" Mo Ying praised.

Strictly speaking, as a "monster", even without demon blood, this special cat can definitely be called a monster in Neon.

It’s just that the existence of ghost blood allows him to adapt to this world better and allows him to quickly realize his potential.

Otherwise, relying solely on Lucci's help, you can certainly become stronger, but it's really too slow.

"Any other questions then?"

Tamayo's mind was constantly thinking, and of course she still had many questions, but she was also worried that her questions might be too presumptuous.

"The reason I want to see you is because in the original future, you are a part of killing Muzan Kibutsuji, so I want to see you."

Nekomata's words caused quite a stir, and the monsters in the palace became curious as well.

This ghost can kill Muzan, she is so weak.

Of course, we also noticed the original future. Can Lord Mo Ying see the future?

What an amazing power this is! This is the worshipful thought in the Rain Girl’s heart.

"Unfortunately, that was just the original future. Now it has changed. The current Muzan has received the help of XXXX and has been reborn."

Mo Ying said a name, but it was extremely obscure in everyone's ears and no one could hear the name clearly.

Tamayo didn't hear the name clearly, but she understood that the Lord Mo Ying in front of her had come into contact with Muzan Kibutsuji. Even the appearance of these monsters might be related to the existence whose name she couldn't hear clearly.

"This name is a taboo. Knowing his name will revive his power a little, and will also make this world easier to invade."

World invasion? The monsters in the palace are also listening to this secret.

Although they have only been around for a short time, their special structure does not mean they have no brains.

After all, some beings still have memories of their previous lives.

Except for two, all the others in the palace were human beings in their previous lives, but they have transformed into ghosts.

It is not uncommon in Neon for humans to turn into monsters.

Needless to say, the reason why Yu Nu hates ghosts so much is because she was "killed" by ghosts during her lifetime, and even her family members were killed by ghosts.

Ghosts exist in this world, but they rarely show themselves.

A common sight in anime is ghosts falling into hell after death.

The only time they appeared in front of Ikuto was to teach Tanjiro.

One possibility is Tanjiro’s uniqueness. After all, he can dream about the memories of his ancestors.

Another reason may be the uniqueness of Narrow Mt.

As a Nekomata, he awakened his telekinesis and obtained demon blood. With the help of Lucci, he can now observe the ghosts in this world.

Since it can be observed, it can naturally be influenced.

The situation in hell is unknown, but there are many ghosts in the world, but it is difficult for normal people to see them, unless they are gifted.

Of course, not all ghosts will stay in the world. Some will disappear over time according to the records of some Yin-Yang masters or wizards.

There are only three possibilities: reincarnation, becoming a Buddha, and disappearance. Reincarnation is untraceable unless you live for hundreds of years and see similar people.

But they look similar, so it cannot be said to be reincarnation.

Even in the modern era at the end of the comics, Lucci is still skeptical about reincarnation.

Maybe I can learn something about it later.

Mo Ying didn't say much, but let them guess and use their imaginations on their own.

"If you want, I can also turn you into a monster." Mo Ying asked.

This is Lu Qi's order.

Rengoku Makijuro was injured by the hands of the Snow Woman, which made him pay more attention to the situation here. Of course, the main reason was the successful development of the talisman.

After understanding the situation, I no longer need to make adjustments.

Become a monster?

Tamayo had not thought of this possibility.

The main reason why Lucci is interested in Tamayo is that she has certain research capabilities and can research a way to create a ghost city.

Of course, the subordinates of the scientific researchers cannot be let off.

Of course, we did not force the other party to join.

"Is there any difference between ghosts and monsters? You said that part of their power comes from Muzan?" Tamayo was very curious.

Of course, the monsters present were also somewhat curious.

Mo Ying has never talked so much as he did today.

"I don't know if it's a change in the world, but there are always special creatures in this world. Ghosts are never unique, they're just in Neon."

"Generally speaking, these beings that are very different from the human world are collectively referred to as aliens. The universe operates according to its own rules. Due to the opposition between yin and yang, aliens will appear and cause impacts."

"There will be something in the world to restrain them, and Heaven will give birth to a son of destiny to restrain them."

The first person that Tamayo thought of was Yoriichi Tsugakuni.

"That's right, Tsugikoku Yoshiichi is such a person, but unfortunately he did not complete his mission."

"But our birth is different from that of the aliens. Theirs is a coincidence, but ours is..."

The cat hesitated again.

"I don't know when I started to have these memories, but ever since I gained spiritual memory, there has been a voice telling me to look for Muzan Kibutsuji..."

The cat began to tell stories again.
