Demon Slayer: Upper 0 seems to be a waste

"Akoza, I think you can just put me down and walk on your own. At least I still have my hands and feet."

Lin Guang's arm was pressed on the peach-pink head, and his two hands were supporting his own little black head. He looked up, counting the stars in the sky, and made the application for the umpteenth time.

Akaza likes to compete with demons. According to him, practice is just accumulation, and real competition can show whether there is progress and where there are shortcomings.

But Lin Guang thought that he was just simple, young and energetic, so he loved fighting.

It is unknown how Akaza understood the words left by Muzan, but he believed that Rinko could not act alone. This understanding led to a result that wherever Akaza went, he would be taken there.

At first, they carried it by hand, but later, due to the practical conditions (after all, Akaza's height was no match for Kokushibo), after Rinko was almost thrown out several times, they changed the method of carrying to carrying, lifting, and hugging. In short, they tried various ways of transporting it.

In the end, Akaza compromised and allowed Rinko to become smaller and sit on his shoulders, just making sure she didn't fall off. Although it was not very elegant and polite, it was a rare way for Akaza to travel with his hands free and Rinko looked good.

"Stop joking. If we ask you to come down and follow us, we won't be able to cross this mountain tonight."

Akaza still doesn't believe in Rinko and is even unwilling to give Rinko a chance to prove himself.

Lin Guang didn't mind, and even thought it was understandable.

After all, Akaza has been trying to teach him boxing recently, and Akaza has been teaching seriously for a month. Rinko has also been studying seriously for a month. The current progress is that he can do the horse stance, but he doesn't understand the starting posture. The movements are in place, but there is no effect at all.

To use Akaza's own words, "After studying for so long, you've only learned a hollow framework?"

The disdain in his tone and the confusion in his expression were far worse than when Kokushibo watched him use the long sword.

Rinkou is an obedient child. Unlike most children who may not understand or remember what you say, Rinkou will remember everything you say. Even if there are some things he doesn't want to hear or doesn't want to hear, he will still remember them.

Even if it's something he doesn't want to do, after you tell him to do it, he will do it with an expression of unwillingness that he tries hard to suppress, like the training Akaza gave him.

In summary, Akaza actually didn't have a very bad impression of him, at least he could accept such a guy continuing to breathe beside him.

After becoming a demon, Akaza has been running around alone almost all the time. After getting used to this kind of life, the demon has become taciturn and silent. After all, his fellow demons are either extremely weak or have disgusting behavior. Akaza is unwilling and disdainful to communicate with them.

Only occasionally, when he met a few capable ghost hunters, would his sewn-up mouth open and his mood would improve.

In this situation, having a little one who can walk around with him, run around, and play with him is indeed a different experience. Lin Guang doesn't have much talent for martial arts, but he will go with him when he is asked to train. Most importantly, this child will not cry out that he is hungry and want to eat.

Although he did not learn the talent for fighting, Rinko still learned a few things from him, such as how to judge the strength of the opponent. Akaza himself based it on the degree of fighting spirit. As for Rinko, he had his own way. Akaza did not quite understand the little guy's strange description.

There was a bang and a boom, and it looked like it was about to be destroyed.

But in short, he can tell the strength of his opponents.

That's good. But not entirely good.

Because the only two living things around Rinko before were Muzan and Kokushibo, Akaza completely found it difficult to agree with his classification and degree of how strong his opponents were.

For example, Rinko often says nonsense like "They don't look as strong as Lord Muzan and Lord Kokushibo."

Those ghost hunters and lesser-known ghosts certainly aren't as powerful as them, but you look even weaker than they do. Don't just stare at others, look at how weak you really are.

Every time Akaza heard that kind of comment from him, his veins would bulge.

What's scary isn't the weak, but the weak who don't know how to judge themselves. What's even scarier is that he still has to keep an eye on this brat who could lose his head at any moment.

The book says that when you try to find something, you usually can't find it, but when you hide, something appears.

This sentence is also applicable to ghost hunters.

"Are we really going to run? That leader looks quite capable... Mr. Akaza. Is it because we haven't fought demon hunters in so long that you're worried we won't be able to defeat him... Well, there are four of us, after all, and one of us is quite formidable."

This was a cheap way of provoking someone. Lin Guang learned it from a book. His tone was not as rich as in the book, nor did it have the ups and downs that it should have. This provocation might not work on others, and it wouldn't work at any other time, but now, the time, the place, and the people were all right.

To Akaza, this bland and indifferent tone was like a pot of hot oil that added fuel to the flames.

"What a joke."

Even if it was just pressing on his head, Rinkou could feel that Akaza's veins must have bulged, and he might even have frowned and forced a not-so-friendly smile. It was just that he was above his head and could not witness this interesting scene.

"Wait."

Rinko was torn off the head by Akaza and placed between the branches. The movements of his hands were quite rough, and even the collar was pulled a little deformed, but Rinko accepted it well. He supported himself on the tree trunk and swung his legs as he fell, watching Akaza jump three feet high and then land heavily on the ground in an extremely oppressive manner.

You see, opportunities are earned by yourself.

Like a beast hunting at night, it emerged silently from the darkness, its golden eyes lighting up dangerously in the darkness.

In fact, Akaza's appearance alone is very oppressive. This does not refer to his height or appearance. Akaza is not very tall, although he is much taller than Rinko, but compared with someone of Kokushibo's level, Akaza looks a lot gentler.

Lin Guang was referring to the tattoos all over his body.

Rinko still remembers their first meeting.

The man knelt on the ground, his head bowed. He couldn't see his face, but his gaze was drawn to the tattoos on his pale skin, which gave him a unique sense of oppression. Pale skin, covered in tattoos, short peach-pink hair, and a physique so excellent that he was somewhat envious. This was Rinko's first impression of Akaza.

After Muzan left, the head raised up, and facing him was a young face that looked more like an elder brother than an elder. There were words written in the eyes, and the expression was subtle as he looked up and down at him, but Rinkou at that time did not care about the scrutiny of those eyes, and just lamented that he even had tattoos on his face.

For him, this was enough to leave an impression, but for humans, it would probably be even more oppressive...
