I don't want to be a heroic spirit

Ah Feng became very flustered because of Nightingale's words. She thought that the other party was angry and she didn't know how to speak for a moment. Then the next second she heard Nightingale speak again.

"If you want to help me, you should first learn some medical and nursing knowledge from me. Even if you are willing to help, you will only cause trouble."

After a pause, Nightingale looked at Ah Feng's confused eyes in confusion and asked, "What's wrong? Is there something complicated about what I just said that you can't understand?"

"No! No, no..."

Ah Feng waved his hands hurriedly, "I just... thought, Sister Nightingale, you were unwilling to teach me those medical knowledge."

"What stupid thing are you talking about?"

Nightingale frowned in dissatisfaction. "Even God doesn't know which will come first, an accident or tomorrow. No one can guarantee that there will be a doctor nearby when someone gets into trouble. Therefore, the popularization of medical knowledge must be done. As long as everyone masters the skills of saving lives, even if it's just the most basic knowledge, the casualties caused by accidents can be minimized! Even if you don't want to learn these things, I will force you to remember them! Fighting disease has never been a job that belongs to me alone or all doctors. It requires the joint efforts of everyone!"

Then, Nightingale added sternly, "However, since you want to help me, my requirements for you will never be so simple... Throw away your half-hearted determination now! My goal is to wipe out all poisons and destroy all harmful things. I don't have much time to waste on you, so be prepared! I won't even give you the chance to regret it!"

"Yes!"

Ah Feng had never seen such a powerful aura before, and his whole body tensed up unconsciously, just like a new recruit who saw a veteran coming back from the battlefield.

This is normal. Nightingale was a person who had truly experienced the battlefield. Although her position was a battlefield nurse, ordinary soldiers were not as good at fighting as her. The fact that she was able to come back alive from the battlefield and live to the age of ninety was not just due to luck and the enemy's mercy.

As if she was very satisfied with Afeng's attitude, Nightingale nodded, then raised her hand and gently touched Afeng's head, and a smile bloomed on her beautiful face like a flower.

"Sister Nightingale?"

Ah Feng relaxed slightly, with a hint of doubt in his voice.

“This is a thank you.”

The gentle temperament that made Afeng unable to help but indulge appeared in Nightingale again. It was because of this gentleness that Nightingale became the "angel in white" in the eyes of the soldiers.

"I'm willing to gallop through the cold night sky and dedicate my entire life to saving all lives... But my life is too short, and my power is too small, so... I'm very happy."

Nightingale looked at Afeng, with a touching tenderness in her eyes, "When you said you were willing to help me... I was really happy."

Although Nightingale, who came to this world as a Heroic Servant, possesses unrivaled power, she still lacks the confidence to defeat illness and pain, and it is impossible for her to stay in this world forever.

It was not until Afeng's proposal today that she had the idea of ​​teaching people the medical knowledge she...or "Nightingale" possessed.

Although it is not long since the death of Nightingale in this world, she was a "Super Nightingale" from Chaldea who studied medicine and hygiene with Paracelsus and Asclepius. The medical knowledge she possessed is epoch-making even today.

If Afeng and other people in this world could learn this knowledge... even if they don't learn all of it, it will still bring great benefits to the human beings in this world.

The more she thought about it, the more Nightingale felt that this idea was worth a try...but let's put it aside for now.

"If you don't drink it now, the tea that Afeng made for me will get cold."

Picking up the teacup, Nightingale took a small sip, letting the bitterness and the unique plant aroma of tea mixed in the bitterness spread in her mouth.

Nightingale didn't know how to taste tea. The bitter taste reminded her of the college entrance examination when her teacher went to the temple to pray and got two bags of tea for each of their classmates... She took it home and tasted it once, and it was really bitter.

She still prefers milk tea to tea... However, Nightingale's spiritual influence made her extremely resistant to modern drinks like milk tea, which are sweet and contain many additives.

After all, he was Santa Nightingale, the one who vowed to replace all the candy in the world with medicine...

"Shh!"

A Feng was startled because Nightingale suddenly stood up without any warning and showed a very scary expression.

Ah Feng didn't understand what was going on. Before she could say anything, Nightingale spoke first.

"This feeling is... there are lives that need me to save!"

Astonishing momentum erupted from Nightingale's slightly thin body.

Although Nightingale does not have skills such as [Mind's Eye] or [Revelation], she has an A+ level luck value.

Xuanzang Sanzang's EX-level luck is reflected in the fact that she always appears where she is most needed. For example, in the interlude, Xuanzang Sanzang accepted the task of resolving the anomaly. However, she did not act according to the clues given by Chaldea. Instead, she went west according to the guidance of her heart. In the end, she not only found the anomaly, but also prevented a town from being destroyed.

Although she did not have the extraordinary luck of Xuanzang, Nightingale's A+ level of luck combined with her iron will to save all lives made her occasionally have a premonition that there were people who needed her help.

Nightingale's amazing ability to take action was revealed at this moment.

Before Afeng could come to his senses, Nightingale rushed out of the room like a gust of wind and disappeared in the pitch-black darkness in an instant.

"Sister Nightingale..."

Ah Feng chased to the door, but could see nothing but the terrifying darkness. "You didn't even bring a light... Is that really okay?"

Chapter 575 Upper Moon Two.

The night was deep, with only a crescent moon in the sky emitting a faint light, and the wind blew the dense leaves, making a rustling sound.

The evening breeze seemed to carry the fragrance of flowers, and the butterfly Kanae floated down to the ground like a petal riding on the wind, and behind her, a demon with a severed head let out an unwilling roar before dying.

“Damn it… Damn it! Damn Demon Slayer Corps… I don’t want it… I don’t want to be like this… How can it be like this… I don’t want to die…”

However, no matter how unwilling or angry this evil ghost was, he could not stop the power in his body from dissipating or stop his body from disappearing.

Even an evil spirit with strong vitality will turn into ashes like charcoal thrown into fire once its neck is cut by the Nichirin Sword.

The floral scent in the air was gradually replaced by a burnt smell.

Not until the last bit of the evil ghost's flesh turned into ashes in the wind did Kanae Kocho close her eyes and hide the trace of compassion in her eyes.

All evil ghosts are transformed from humans. If they were to know that they would become evil ghosts and eat other people in the future, how painful would they be?

She had no way to save them who had already fallen into evil spirits, so in order to prevent more innocent lives from being lost, she could only harden her heart and kill these evil spirits... This is what Kanae Kocho thought.

After that, Kocho Kanae began to think about another thing.

"There's something wrong with the strength of this evil ghost..."

Kanae Kocho clearly remembered that before she came here, several members of the Demon Slayer Corps had been killed by evil spirits here. However... although the evil spirit she had just killed was not weak, it was not so strong that the members who died before would not even have a chance to escape.

According to their speculation, there is a high probability that the evil ghost here is one of the Twelve Kizuki, so the Demon Slayer Corps sent her here as the pillar.

"Have you left already?"

Butterfly Kanae sighed with regret, "I thought I could finally find clues about the Twelve Demon Moons this time..."

Suddenly, the wind direction around changed.

Coldness is spreading and malice is laughing wildly.

Before her brain could react, Kocho Kanae's body had already responded, pulling out the sheathed Nichirin Sword and pointing it directly at a shadow in front of her.

Cold sweat soaked the clothes on her back. Kanae Kotobukiya was breathing very hard. The cold wind rushed into her lungs and then turned into a hot stream that was gently exhaled. Her heart was beating extremely vigorously. Oxygen flowed through her limbs and bones driven by the blood. Her energy was highly concentrated, her brain was clear, and her physical state reached its peak in an instant.

All of this... is because of the man who appeared in the shadows.

"Ah? Is that poor little guy dead?"

The source of the coldness slowly walked out from the dark shadows.

"I originally thought that person was very talented, which is why I gave him some blood before he died and turned him into a ghost. He...eh? What's his name? Um...never mind, since I can't remember it, I'll just leave it alone. I came back to take a look on a whim, and I didn't expect to find such an unexpected gain."

He was a man with hair as pure as white oak and a terrifying smile on his face. Although he was smiling, there was no emotion in that smile, and there was only emptiness in his strange rainbow eyes.

His attire had a very strong religious flavor, with a red top, a black cloak, a tall hat, and a golden iron fan in his hand.

However, none of this matters...

When Butterfly Kanae met those rainbow eyes and saw the words in them, a bone-chilling chill poured down from her head, as if she was standing in the cold winter wind with her clothes wet.

"Upper...Two..."

The Twelve Demon Moons represent the twelve strongest demons under the Demon King, and are further divided into upper and lower demons.

Although the Pillar-level swordsmen can easily defeat the Lower-rank demons, every Upper-rank demon has destroyed multiple Pillar-level swordsmen.

This results in the lower-rank demons changing in every era, but the upper-rank demons have not been killed for hundreds of years.

The one in front of Kocho Kanae is the Second Upper Moon... In other words, the opponent's strength is second only to the Demon King Muzan and the First Upper Moon!

The pressure that was like a volcano about to erupt also proved this point... No evil spirit had ever been able to bring such terrible pressure to Butterfly Kanae. Even just standing there made her feel like she had no chance of winning.

"I... I won the grand prize."

Butterfly Kanae gave a wry smile.

No matter how hard I breathe, I can't suppress the uneasiness in my heart. I feel an uncontrollable horror. If I don't tense up even my fingertips, my whole body will tremble immediately.

Facing the Upper Two, Kanae Kocho recalled the scene of her first encounter with the evil spirit... They were both equally helpless.

Compared to the being before him, all the ghosts that had appeared so far were no different from babies.

"Are you here to avenge the ghost I just killed?"

"Revenge? Haha! What a funny joke... It should be funny, right? Sorry, I don't quite understand. When you hear someone joking, you should laugh, right?"

The Second Upper Moon poked his chin with his iron fan and said with a vain smile, "Whatever happens to that kind of stuff? I just made it on a whim. Since he's already dead, there's no point caring about it. Now I like you even more. You... are a 'Pillar', right?"

"Don't deny it,"

The Second Upper Moon continued, "After all, I've killed quite a few Pillars, so I know exactly what your Pillars are like. Although most of them are weak, there are occasionally some impressive masters."

Then, the Second Upper Moon opened the iron fan in his hand, and his cold eyes reflected the figure of Butterfly Kanae.

"Are you afraid? But you didn't run away, just like most of the Pillars I've encountered... I get it, I get it. That's called courage, right? It's called duty, right? The thing that keeps you from being crushed by fear and running away... I envy you so much. What does that feeling feel like? Could you please give me a rough description?"

The other party was more talkative than she had expected, but...Kanae Kocho didn't have the time to respond.

The rhythm of breathing cannot be disturbed, and the intensity of breathing cannot be reduced... All attention must be shifted to breathing so as not to be affected by the fear of death.

At this moment, the slender legs showed amazing explosive power. Kanae Kocho approached the Two Upper Moons rapidly like an afterimage. At the same time, she tightly grasped the Sun Blade with both hands, aimed at the opponent's neck, and suddenly slashed out a series of sword lights with fluttering petals.

Nine slashing blows came from four directions, and amidst the flying petals, the trajectory of the sword was like the petals of a peony.

The fifth type of flower breathing is fruitless peony!

"Ohhh! What is this? What a beautiful slash."

Facing those fatal blows aimed at his neck, the Second Upper Moon didn't care at all, and even commented that they were "beautiful".

"Then take a look at mine. Don't blink."

The next moment, the Second Upper Moon swung his iron fan violently, and the slash from Kocho Kanae seemed to be frozen. The ice stream emitting a terrible cold air forced Kocho Kanae to stop.

"Is it a vampire magic that creates ice?"

Kanae Kocho's beautiful eyes narrowed, and her ethereal figure moved through the ice cones, collecting information about the enemy while counterattacking.

Not only do evil spirits have physical abilities far beyond those of humans, some powerful evil spirits also possess a special ability called "blood magic".

Kanae Kocho was unwilling to escape in a panic without doing anything. Although many lower-rank demons died because of the Demon Slayer Corps, they still knew too little about the upper-rank demons. Whether it was their appearance, names or abilities, they all urgently needed them.

After finally meeting an Upper Rank, Kanae Kocho wanted to at least get information about his abilities.

From the beginning to the end, the Two Upper Moons maintained a teasing and playful attitude, but this did not make Kanae Kocho dissatisfied. On the contrary, Kanae Kocho wanted to be looked down upon by the other party.

As the battle progressed, Kocho Kanae was certain... that she did not have the ability to kill the opponent. If the opponent did not underestimate her, she might not even have the chance to escape with the intelligence.

The ability to manipulate ice is more difficult than Kanae Kocho had initially imagined.

The opponent's blood magic had an unreasonable attack range, which made it impossible for her to get close to him. At the same time, being in the cold, her body coordination and reaction ability were greatly affected.

"We're almost at our limit... We have to retreat."

Forced to retreat a long distance again, Butterfly Kanae exhaled heavily and made a calm decision in her heart.

There was still a long time before dawn, and she didn't think she could drag the other party into the sunlight just by relying on the other party's contempt, so she probably had no choice but to retreat.

In fact, if she didn't run now, she would never have the chance to run away again.

"Ah, are you planning to escape already?"

The Second Upper Moon saw through Butterfly Kanae's thoughts and said with a cruel smile, "We were having so much fun."

Kocho Kanae still didn't reply. From beginning to end, it was only the Two Upper Moons who talked to himself, and he was quite patient.

"Really? Are you sure? That's a shame."

The Second Upper Moon narrowed his eyes slightly, "Hmm... it should be about time. I've been exercising with you for so long, your meat should be at its most delicious now. It's almost time to eat it."

Breathing hard, this time Kanae Kocho was not trying to attack, but to escape.

Then… her eyes suddenly widened in shock.

"Can't breathe...?"

Even if I opened my mouth wide and used all my strength to breathe, I couldn't get the oxygen my body needed, and my lungs felt like they were torn apart.

“Cough cough…cough cough cough cough!”

Butterfly Kanae covered her mouth and coughed a few times, and then she felt a hint of heat in her palm.
