Hunter × Hunter: The Seven Deadly Sins

Chapter 597: Kintaki Sakonji

The sky gradually darkened, and Ilumi still walked leisurely through the forest of Sawu Mountain.

"Um?"

Suddenly, Ilumi stopped because he felt the gaze of others.

"Rintagaki Sakonji."

Sensing the gaze from Nintaki Sakonji, Illumi paused for just a moment before taking another step to continue climbing the mountain.

On the right side of the forest trail, on a bamboo six hundred meters away from Ilumi, Rintagaki Sakonji stood on the top with one hand and one foot, observing Ilumi.

"With such keen intuition, he can detect the sight of others even from hundreds of meters away."

"According to his own statement, he didn't use the Nichirin Sword to kill eleven ghosts. It seems he wasn't lying."

Thinking of this, Nintaki Sato adjusted his posture for the last time, exerted force on one foot, and jumped onto another bamboo. The bamboo bent because it could not bear his weight.

The last time Rintagisa let go of the bamboo when it bent to its limit, his body fell to the ground like a leaf without making any sound.

After landing, he rushed out with a whoosh, lowering his body while running to cover himself in the grass, approaching Ilumi.

"coming."

Yilumi, who was going up the mountain, noticed that the line of sight staring at him secretly was becoming more and more obvious, and it should be approaching quickly.

"You must be Kazusa Tezuka, whom my lord arranged to come here to be nurtured."

Just when Ilumi thought he was about to appear, a rich man's voice echoed over the forest.

"The information says that you can kill eleven ghosts on your own. You must be very confident in your physical strength and strength."

"I want you to climb to the top of the mountain before the moon reaches it tonight, and then run from the top to the bottom of the mountain."

"If you understand, then hurry up and get on your way."

Ningtaki Sa did not show up to meet him this time, but instead presented him with such a test.

He wanted to test how good this ghost-killing master recommended by his lord was.

"Before the moon reaches the top of the mountain..." Yilumi looked up and saw the first quarter moon in the sky through the gap between the branches. "When the moon reaches the top of the mountain, it will be around twelve o'clock in the night."

"Climb to the top of the mountain before twelve o'clock, and then run from the top to the bottom of the mountain." Yilumi frowned slightly when he heard this, "I remember that twenty years later, the main requirement for the protagonist is to run down to the bottom of the mountain before dawn."

"And he personally led the way up the mountain."

"This situation..." Yilumi looked up at the dark and gloomy forest ahead, "It requires me to go up the mountain in the dark and not get lost."

"The treatment between me and the protagonist is quite different."

"But forget it."

"It's just a matter of climbing up a mountain and then descending it. It's like experiencing a mountain climbing activity."

After finishing speaking, Yilumi took out his pocket watch and looked at the time with the help of the moonlight pouring down from the branches.

It's nine o'clock in the evening, there are still three hours until twelve o'clock, and we can't be as slow as before.

"Start climbing."

Yilumi tightened his grip on the knife at his waist, tightened his grip on the leather suitcase, moved his legs, and accelerated the climb. He avoided all traps and hidden weapons along the way.

"Whoosh! Whoosh!"

On both sides of the dark forest path, one or two darts were thrown from time to time, hindering his climb.

Although this body has yet to be developed, fortunately, Ilumi has experienced many battles. The sound of the darts cutting through the air helped him dodge smoothly, and no hidden weapon could hurt him.

Late at night, 23:49.

At the foot of Mt. Saagiri, at the end of a forest path that was barely a road, Nintaki Sakon sat cross-legged for the first time, quietly waiting for the arrival of his first disciple.

At this time, the waning crescent moon in the sky is about to reach its peak.

"Wow..."

A sound of branches and leaves being pushed aside reached his ears. Linlong Zuo opened his eyes for the first time and looked at the source of the sound.

An embarrassed figure in a bright red kimono slowly walked out of the grass. His short hair and bangs were damp and messy, but his eyes were clear, he was full of energy, and his breathing was steady.

After going up and down the mountain, I was only slightly tired.

There were many small cuts on his face and hands, which were caused by leaves of vegetation in the grass while climbing down the mountain.

The bright red kimono on her body was soaked with dew and sweat, and the leather suitcase she was carrying was also dirty.

"As agreed, I climbed to the top of the mountain and came down again." Yilumi walked out of the grass and looked up at the sky, "It seems that the moon lost."

"Well, come with me."

"I'll take you to your home at the foot of the mountain."

Nintaki Sakonji stood up and walked in the other direction towards the foot of the mountain, while Illumi followed suit.

Ten minutes later, Ilumi was taken to the foot of the mountain in the west by Lintaki Sakonji, where there was a spacious trail opened by humans.

After walking up the trail for twenty minutes, Ilumi saw the forest cabin standing at the end of the trail.

"You wait outside."

Rintaki Sakonji asked Irumi to wait outside, and he went into the house alone.

A moment later, when he walked out of the hut again, he already had a sun blade on his waist.

"It's rare that someone can finally feel the difference in me."

When Ilumi saw the Sun-Run Sword on the old man's waist, he immediately understood that he had discovered his identity.

"Are you going to do something to me?"

Ilumi gently put down the leather suitcase in his hand, holding the sheath with his left hand, and the handle of the knife with his right hand, holding tightly with the little finger and ring finger, and loosely holding the other fingers.

This holding method can draw the sword the fastest.

"Before I take action, I want to ask a question." Nedaki Sakonji did not take action directly, but asked: "The smell on your body is very strange, the smell of humans and the smell of ghosts."

"I have never seen a being like you, with the scent of both man and ghost on your body."

"Are you a human or a ghost?"

"It doesn't seem like the type to act indiscriminately."

Yilumi raised his eyebrows slightly when he heard this, put down the left hand holding the sheath, and released the handle of the knife with his right hand, smiling and saying:

“I was first a human, then a ghost, and then I became a human again.”

"What do you mean?" Hinataki Sakonji looked puzzled, "Speak clearly."

"My name is Tezuka Kazusa. I live in Asakusa, Taito-ku, Tokyo. I am a medical student at Imperial University. My father teaches at Imperial University and my mother is a hospital nurse."

Ilumi talked about his origins, and Nintaki Sakonji stood there and listened quietly.

"Half a year ago, Oniitsuji Muzan came to my house, killed my parents, and turned me into a ghost."

Yilumi told the story of his family's tragedy with a calm expression.

"What!?" Lin Takizao's eyes suddenly changed when he heard this recently, and he exclaimed: "Can you shout that name?"

Kintaki Sakonji was both surprised that Irumi still retained the memory of when he was a human, and also exclaimed because Irumi could shout the name of Kibutsuji Mukai without dying.

"The reason why I can call him by his name is because I am no longer under his control." Yilumi explained with a smile: "Not only that, I can also temporarily transform back into a human being."
