Please Call Me Cyber Ghost King

Chapter 165 Replacement of Flame Pillar

"Mr. Ke Ling, why did you look different before?"

On the way back from work, Kanroji Miri still asked her doubts. She still couldn't forget the scene she saw before.

Looking at Mr. Ke Ling's face now, she still remembered the evil ghost with a ferocious face, and she wanted to ask the matter more clearly.

"Because I'm a ghost."

Ke Ling replied in a calm tone, which made Ganluji Mili's eyes widen. She was stunned as if she had heard something terrible. This was an answer she had never thought of.

"How is that possible! Mr. Ke Ling, don't be ridiculous, how can a ghost be active during the day? I am an official member of the Demon Slayer Team! I still know the weaknesses of ghosts very well, okay?"

After being stunned for a moment, Ganluji Mili immediately retorted. She realized that Mr. Ke Ling must be joking.

"No, because I am a special ghost, very special. I am not afraid of the sun and I don't eat people."

Seeing Ganluji Mitsuri's reaction, Ke Ling felt a little amused. He continued to answer in a calm tone, which made Ganluji Mitsuri's smile gradually freeze, because she really wanted to believe it!

"How. How is it possible that you are not afraid of the sun and people-eating ghosts?"

Kanroji Mitsuri stuttered a bit when she spoke. She felt that the concepts she had just established a short time ago were greatly impacted.

But thinking about it carefully, all that knowledge was told to her by people from the Demon Slayer Squad, or to put it bluntly, it was all told to her by her master, Mr. Kyoujuro Purgatory. Is it impossible to make mistakes? Maybe Mr. Ke Ling is really the special one?

"Shh, this is a secret, a secret that only the leader of the Demon Slayer Squad and the pillars know. Miss Kanroji, please don't tell others."

Ke Ling raised his index finger, covered it with his mouth, and blinked at Ganlu Temple Mili.

"Well!"

Ganluji Mili was so frightened that she immediately covered her mouth. She looked at Ke Ling and nodded wildly, saying that she would never tell anyone about it.

And as she moved, another wave of snow-white waves appeared on her chest. This child was obviously only seventeen years old. In Ke Ling's opinion, he was not yet an adult, but his figure had already grown to an exaggerated size.

"good."

Ke Ling smiled and patted her on the top of her head. This girl was really not short, nearly 1.7 meters tall, which was considered very tall among girls.

Especially in the Neon Country, the Neon Country at the beginning of the 20th century, the average height of men was only nearly 1.6 meters. This was the result of the large-scale supplementation during the Meiji period.

Therefore, there is really no problem in saying that some members of the Demon Slayer Corps are gifted. The average height of everyone is 1.5 meters, and if you grow to 2.2 meters, one person would like to be taller than both others.

"Mr. Ke Ling, why did you tell me?"

When Ke Ling touched her head, Ganlu Temple Mili's cheeks turned red. She asked strangely, is it really okay to tell her such a secret? Why not just find an excuse to pass it off?

"Didn't you ask it yourself?"

Ke Ling's face looked strange. It seems like I didn't tell you on my own initiative, right?

".Can you tell others if they ask?"

Ganluji Mili looked surprised, but she quickly realized that Mr. Ke Ling was obviously deliberately making fun of her.

"Haha, actually it's because I believe in you, Miss Ganluji, you will definitely become a pillar. You have that talent, you have to believe in yourself."

Ke Ling shook his head and laughed. This little girl is really cute, a bit natural, her personality is very easy to control, and her thoughts are all written on her face.

"Really?! Can I become a pillar too?!"

After hearing Ke Ling's words, Ganlu Temple Mili had a look of surprise on her face. If others said this, she would definitely not take it seriously, but when these words came out of Ke Ling's mouth, she felt that they were very reliable. She Look, Ke Ling has put on a filter.

"As long as you keep working hard, it will happen sooner or later."

Ke Ling nodded seriously. He was not just talking nonsense. Kanroji Mitsuri's talent was visible to the naked eye. Of course, Purgatory Xingjulang had already told him something about Kanroji Mitsuri. As Kanroji Mitsuri's master, Of course Purgatory Anjuro has a very clear understanding of this child's talent.

The seventeen-year-old beautiful girl, without any training, is comparable in strength to a professional ghost hunter like Purgatory Anjuro who has been systematically trained since childhood. In less than half a year, she officially passed the test. Lian became an official team member. This kid is obviously a talented player.

According to Purgatory Anjuro, as long as Kanroji Mitsuri is given time, she will definitely be stronger than him in the future, because this girl's upper limit is higher, her muscles are much stronger than ordinary people, and her starting point is higher than most The end point for people is still ahead.

In terms of combat ability, it is entirely possible that the starting point is higher than the end point of others. Talent is so unreasonable, and sometimes hard work is not worth mentioning.

"I will definitely continue to work hard!"

Ganluji Mitsuri was inspired again. This experience gave her renewed confidence in her future. She will definitely not disappoint Mr. Ke Ling's expectations, and she will definitely become a pillar!

Regarding the fact that Ke Ling is a ghost, Ganluji Mili easily accepted it. Firstly, because she and the ghost had no deep hatred. Secondly, her intuition told her that Ke Ling was definitely not a bad person. Even if he was a ghost, he would not be a bad person. It's definitely not a bad guy!

"I feel relieved to see you two getting along so well."

Infernal Anjuro, who had just sent a group of Demon Slayer members away, came back and saw Ke Ling and Kanroji Mitsuri talking and laughing. He was very happy about this.

Mr. Ke Ling is a very positive person and is a good friend to Kanroji Mitsuri who lacks self-confidence. Mr. Ke Ling will encourage Kanroji Mitsuri to make the girl confident.

"Xingjuro, is it time to go back?"

Seeing Purgatory Anjuro coming over, Ke Ling asked. He urgently wanted to go back to the Demon Slayer Headquarters. The sweetness brought by killing a genji made him want to stop. Can this kind of low-risk and high-yield thing be done forever? Don't stop? !

"Yes, Mr. Ke Ling, I want to go back to recover. Do you want to go back with me?"

Purgatory Xingshoulang nodded. Now he and Ke Ling were familiar with each other. After learning that he was only eighteen years old, Ke Ling directly called him by name, and the relationship between the two parties became closer.

"Of course, you have to prove yourself, and I also have to prove myself. Not all pillars recognize my existence so much. Taking you to complete this mission is my proof. As a ghost, I have not hurt you people." You’ve all been killed, you should trust me, right?”

Ke Ling smiled and joked, but this was also a fact. Although the thin blood of Immortal Kawa Saneya was used as verification, it still could not eliminate the vigilance in the hearts of the pillars. They must still be on guard.

And Infernal Xingjulang, who had fought with Ke Ling, undoubtedly trusted him. Ke Ling still hoped that this young man would become a pillar. At least there would be one more person who could say a few words for him without asking these pillars for help. , I just hope it can be less frustrating.

As for Mr. Nintaki's apprentice, the current Sui Hashira Tomioka Giyu, Ke Ling had no hope at all. The first time he saw that guy, Ke Ling knew that he definitely couldn't count on him.

With an iceberg face as if everyone owed him money, he stood there alone, wishing he could isolate everyone, and counting on that kind of person to help him speak, maybe he didn't want him to help?

"Mr. Ke Ling, I will report everything truthfully."

Purgatory Xingshoulang nodded seriously. He believed in Ke Ling. This Mr. Ke Ling was indeed special. Mr. Ke Ling was not afraid of the sun and did not eat people. He could survive by eating himself. These were all things he had seen with his own eyes. See things.

"Be flexible, Xingjuro. I took your head because I didn't want to waste it. My shadow wolf devoured the ghost and helped me replenish my energy. It's better than letting you kill it directly.

If I hadn't intervened, you would have been able to defeat that guy on your own. I'm convinced of this. I made it clear in my reply that you had all the credit, so don't let it slip. "

Ke Ling did not erase the achievements of Purgatory Xingjulang. Except for the fact that he snatched a man's head in the end, Purgatory Xingjulang defeated the evil ghost entirely by his own strength.

In his reply, Ke Ling specifically stated this point. He believed that Ubuyashiki Yōya must understand what he meant. This trial was specially designed for Purgatory Anjurou. Of course, Ke Ling cannot share the credit. go.

As the nominal captain of the expedition team, Ke Ling was of course the one responsible for writing reports to Ubuyashiki Yōya. In fact, he did not speak Japanese, but the powerful system not only gave him the ability to communicate, but also gave him the ability to read and write. ability.

"This! How could this be possible?! It was obviously the ghost you killed!"

It's a pity that Purgatory Anjuro didn't appreciate it at all. He stared wide-eyed and couldn't accept this statement at all. Whoever killed him got the credit. How could he forcefully give all the credit to him? !

If anything, he was able to defeat the evil ghost without any damage, thanks to the personal protection of Mr. Ke Ling's shadow!

Those bullets, those bombs, and those Molotov cocktails were all a great threat to him as a mortal. If Mr. Ke Ling hadn't been protecting him, he would have suffered serious injuries. There was no way he would have taken all the credit. Give it to him!

"You kid."

Ke Ling couldn't help but shake his head and laugh. This was because he had miscalculated. It was indeed a bit impossible for a hot-blooded eighteen-year-old boy to accept such a thing.

The character of Purgatory Anjuro is obviously very upright and aboveboard. He will definitely not be able to accept this kind of thing of taking the credit of others as his own.

"Whatever you say, I think Mr. Uyashiki will be able to see your performance."

Ke Ling didn't say anything more. He had actually given Purgatory Xingjulang enough stage, and the kid also gave a convincing performance.

Ke Ling wrote clearly in his letter to Ubuyashiki Yōya that Purgatory Anjurou could have killed the ghost with one sword, but he deliberately interrupted it because he needed to let the shadow wolf devour the ghost to replenish energy.

This is very reasonable. Although Ke Ling said that he can relieve hunger by eating himself, this kind of thing that does not conform to common sense must be very puzzling. Now he is patching it up and saying that he still needs to use the shadow wolf to swallow evil spirits to replenish energy. , it will definitely make outsiders more willing to believe it, which makes it seem much more reasonable.

And this can be regarded as another reason for the cooperation between the two parties. He also hunts those evil spirits in order to survive and not to eat people.

Soon, Ke Ling, Purgatory Anjuro, and Kanroji Mitsuri returned to the Demon Slayer Headquarters with some wounded people. They were all "transported" in, while Ke Ling walked all the way by himself. After all, he had the video , the route has been recorded.

The wounded were sent to the "Butterfly House" for treatment. In fact, there were not many wounded. Most of them were injured by the bombs deployed by Peilang. Some were injured by the shadow wolves scattered in the city. There were also a few unlucky ones. He was disemboweled and had no time to receive medical treatment. Of course, the body was brought back by the "Anbu" people.

The Demon Slayer Corps has a cemetery, but those who have families will definitely be sent home with high pensions. This is the only thing the Uyashiki clan can do. They are never stingy with money.

Once you become a pillar, you don't even have to worry about money at all. There is no limit to the pillar's salary. You can spend it however you want. Even the lowest-level swordsman has a higher salary than most people outside. This is why some people are willing to do it for The reason money sells one's life.

When Ke Ling and Purgatory Anjuro arrived at Ubuyashiki's mansion, Ubuyashiki Yaoya had been waiting here for a long time. The hidden people had been passing on the news, and he knew when the two would come without prophecy.

"Xingjuro, I'm very happy that you have proven your ability."

The first time he saw the two of them, Ubuya Shiki Yoshiya praised them. It was obvious that the leader of the Demon Slayer Corps was really happy to have a new Flame Pillar on top.

As for what Purgatory Anjuro said about cheering up Purgatory Makijuro, in fact, Ubuyashiki Yōya no longer had much hope.

After so many years, if he could come out, Purgatory Makijuro must have come out long ago. If he doesn't have to wait for Purgatory Makijuro to become a Flame Pillar, it's better not to worry too much.

"Purgatory Anjuro, starting from today, you officially take over your father's position as Flame Pillar. As Flame Pillar, you will continue to be responsible for the Tokyo area in the future. Please protect everyone."

Ubuyashiki Yoshiya made a decision quickly and directly announced that Purgatory Makijuro became the Flame Pillar. Purgatory Makijuro had been delaying for so long, and now he finally got the confirmation to retire.

Of course, although Ubuyashiki Yōya didn't approve it before, Purgatory Makijuro went on strike directly, and the whole house was ruined. Do you still care whether you approve it or not? Is that still called showing off?

"My lord, this is against the rules. I wasn't the one who killed that evil ghost. It was Mr. Ke Ling who killed him."

However, the serious Purgatory Anjuro directly rejected the appointment. He would never take credit for Mr. Mo Keling's achievements.

"I have seen it, Xingshou Lang. Mr. Ke Ling took action only after he judged that you could kill the evil ghost. This is my permission."

Ubuyashiki Yaoya glanced at Ke Ling, and then said directly. This was what Ke Ling had agreed with him in advance in the letter.

"this"

Purgatory Anjuro is a little confused. Is this true?

"Mr. Ke Ling's situation is special. I hope you can understand, Xingshou Lang. He had no choice but to save the ghost from you."

Ubuya Shiki Yōya struck while the iron was hot and started playing the emotional card. In order to stop eating people, Mr. Ke Ling had to eat himself every day. Finally, he met a ghost who could replenish himself with some energy. He had no choice but to do so.

"."

Purgatory Xingjulang was completely dumbfounded. Only then did he realize that the shadow wolf that knocked away the evil ghost was controlled by Mr. Ke Ling! No wonder his inevitable blow missed!

"It's not that exaggerated. It's just that there is a need. There is no other way. I hope you understand."

Ke Ling laughed and avoided Purgatory Xingjulang's eyes.

"That being the case, I accept it."

After understanding the truth, Purgatory Anjuro accepted the result, and for the sake of what he said, continuing to pester him would appear to be ignorant. Although he has a serious personality, he is not that old-fashioned.

Because he is very sensitive to other people's emotions, he is actually quite considerate, so he can be friends with everyone.

Moreover, if Mr. Ke Ling had not intervened, he would indeed be able to kill the evil ghost with one blow. He was confident about this.

"Okay, Anjuro, I hope you can restore the glory of the Purgatory family."

Ubuyashiki Yoshiya nodded happily. He liked Purgatory Anjuro very much. This was a child who could bring warmth and sunshine to everyone, just like his father once did.

"My lord, if there is nothing else, I will take my leave first. I will tell my father the good news. I believe he will cheer up after hearing the news!"

After Purgatory Anjuro decided to accept the appointment, he immediately thought of his father. He firmly believed that this good news would cheer up his father.

".good."

Ubuyashiki Yōya had a complicated look on his face, but he didn't say anything more. It would be useless if he did. Purgatory Anjuro was definitely going to do it.

After receiving permission, Purgatory Anjuro exited with excitement on his face. He looked confident. Of course, he would be like this no matter what he did, as if he would never waver.

"You don't seem to think he can do it?"

After Purgatory Anjuro left, Ke Ling asked Ubuyashiki Yoshiya. Ubuyashiki Yoshiya made this very obvious, and he didn't know whether Purgatory Anjuro didn't see it or didn't care.

"Things are very complicated, Senior Purgatory. It's difficult anyway."

Ubuyashiki Yoshiya shook his head. He had actually seen the ruined Purgatory Makijuro more than once, but that man was already devastated, as if the fire in his heart had been burnt out. No matter what he said, there was nothing he could do. It worked, and his wife Tianyin also tried to persuade him, but in the end she returned without success.

To put it cruelly, Purgatory Anjuro's efforts may not be able to wipe out any fire in Infernal Makijuro's heart. I hope this will not hit Infernal Affairs Anjuro who only thinks about his father.

"That's it. By the way, do you have any more records about Onimbutsuji Muzan here? Or about the starting breath? It has been passed down for so long, so nothing is left, right?"

Regarding the matter of Purgatory Makijuro, Ke Ling was noncommittal. He had never seen the ruined Qian Yanzhu. Besides, this was Purgatory Makijuro's family matter. It was best for outsiders not to interfere indiscriminately. It was difficult for an upright official to intervene in the family affairs. It will cause a lot of trouble.

Ke Ling was more interested in getting more information than the Purgatory family affairs. He had never read the original work and could only find clues on his own. The Demon Slayer Corps was obviously the best source of information. This organization had been passed down for so long. There's definitely a lot of stuff.

"."

Ubuya Shiki Yōya was silent. Ke Ling's words were a bit hurtful, because the truth is the sharpest weapon. The information that the Demon Slayer Squad could provide to Ke Ling was very limited. Even part of the information about Muzui Demon Slayer came from Ke Ling's previous experience. Provided by oneself.
