Reincarnation as Lower Rank Five in Demon Slayer

In the vast and empty Infinite City, Li Lei wandered around aimlessly, playing wherever he went. The wonders of the Infinite City captivated him, and with each small wonder he saw, Li Lei grew to love Nakime's Infinite City even more.

"Alas! Compared to Nakime's Infinity Castle, my alternate dimension is like an ant compared to an elephant, utterly incomparable."

"How wonderful it would be if the Infinite City of Another Dimension were mine!"

"That's strange, where did Nakime go? She's nowhere to be seen."

Li Lei strolled around, talking to himself.

In the distance, Nakime used her eyeballs to constantly monitor Li Lei's movements, trying her best to avoid encountering him. As long as she didn't meet him, she wouldn't be at a disadvantage.

However, there was one thing that puzzled Nakime: she had tried her best to avoid meeting Li Lei in the Infinite City, so why did her heart still feel so cold?

"Narukae, stop hiding. I know you're nearby. Come out for a moment, I have something to ask you."

At this moment, Li Lei took out the Nakime eyeball clone from his alternate dimension and spoke to Nakime.

Seeing that there was no way to avoid it, Nakime had no choice but to step out from the shadows. After all, Nakime didn't want to know what bad things her eyeball clone would transmit from Li Lei.

"Lower Moon One is exhausted, is there anything I can help you with?"

Nakime suppressed her displeasure and said.

Seeing Nakime emerge, Li Lei smiled slightly and casually tossed Nakime's eyeball clone into his alternate dimension.

"Narukae, really! I always have to call you to come out. I'm not some man-eating monster, do you have to be so afraid of me?!"

"Ah--"

Nakime didn't want to talk. "Look at what you're saying! Are you even human? If you're not a monster, then am I some kind of innocent white lotus?"

Nakime looked at Li Lei with disdain through her bright, single eye.

Li Lei didn't care about this at all, since no one here could hear his nonsense.

"Nakime, I have a very important question to ask you. You don't have to answer it, but you must listen."

"Nakime, how many years have you been a ghost?"

"This is the important question you want to ask."

Hearing Li Lei's question, Ming Nu became even more displeased.

"Uh, no, no, I was just asking out of curiosity."

"What I really want to ask is, how come your infinite city in another dimension is so big? Is there some secret to it?"

"No, the Blood Demon Art Infinite Castle, which was created right after the demon was transformed, was already very large."

Nakime replied impatiently.

"When you were a human, did you ever eat anything strange?" Li Lei asked persistently.

"No, I don't know!"

"You have nothing here, and you don't know anything there either, so what use are you?"

Nakime: "You—"

"Fine, I won't ask you anymore. Just take me to Upper Moon Six." ┐(′-｀)┌

Li Lei impatiently told Ming Nu to escort him out of the Infinite City. Upon hearing that Li Lei was leaving, Ming Nu immediately perked up. Her backache and leg pain disappeared, and she felt much better.

"Why didn't you say so earlier, Master? I'll arrange it for you right away."

Seeing Nakime's anxious expression, Li Lei suddenly wondered, "Am I that scary?" But it seemed that Nakime really didn't know why her Blood Demon Art was so powerful.

Li Lei emerged from a corner of the pleasure quarters, and the hidden doorway disappeared behind him. Looking at the pleasure quarters, which seemed no different from usual, Li Lei couldn't help but sigh inwardly.

Who would have thought that Upper Moon Six was hiding in this bustling red-light district, and that countless people had lost their lives here?

"Hello, everyone, uncles and aunts, brothers and sisters, could you give me some food? I haven't eaten for several days."

On the street, a little girl, about seven or eight years old and covered in dirt, was begging for food from passersby, but no one would give food to a dirty little brat.

"Sister, can I have something to eat?"

The little girl saw a woman holding a sesame seed cake and cautiously approached her to ask for some.

"Get out of my way, you filthy beggar! My clothes are very expensive. What will I use to compensate you if I bump into you? Don't let your filthy stench get on me."

"Sorry, I didn't mean to."

"Then get out of here, you stinking beggar."

The woman yelled at the little girl, then covered her nose with her hand and watched the little girl leave. Because she was in a bad mood, she only took two bites of the meat pie in her hand and threw it on the ground.

"Pah! Today's meat pie is really awful."

What was happening before Li Lei's eyes was so glaringly obvious. What might be a life-saving meat pie for the little beggar girl was nothing more than a casually discarded snack in the woman's eyes.

Seeing the meat pie on the ground that had only been eaten twice, the little beggar girl swallowed hard, and her stomach began to rumble. Just as she was about to pick it up, a hand stopped her.

The frightened little beggar girl, like a startled kitten, quickly dodged away.

"The things that fell on the ground are no longer edible. If you're hungry, eat this instead."

Li Lei held up a chicken leg and said to the little girl.

"Is it really for me?"

The little beggar girl looked up at Li Lei and asked cautiously.

Yes, it's especially for you.

Li Lei smiled and said to the little girl.

At this moment, a glimmer of light appeared in the little beggar girl's gray eyes, and her gaze became a little more lively.

"Thank you brother!"

The little girl carefully took the chicken leg and began to eat it quickly.

"Slow down, don't choke, I have more."

Seeing the little girl wolfing down her food, Li Lei said with concern.
