Chapter 2059: What is the situation with the evil ghost who takes care of people?
When Fujimaru Ritsuka woke up——
"Well......"
It hurts——
It's not just one place that hurts, it hurts in many places all over the body...
As long as he moved a little, he would feel pain all over his body, but after a slight pause, Fujimaru Ritsuka still struggled to open his eyes.
here it is--
Where?
It's so dark, is it still night?
Wait, that is...fire...
So the reason for the darkness shouldn't be that it's dark. The time is unclear. The most important thing is...are you in a cave?
Ah, next to the bonfire...that's the shadow?
Whose shadow?
Fujimaru Ritsuka was a little dazed.
Recall what happened before... It seems that I was walking along the mountain road to the mountain to the agreed place for the duel, and then suddenly encountered an ambush by Huasheng...
During the battle...
Thinking of this, Fujimaru Ritsuka was shocked.
Shuten Doji is coming.
When Zuo Cun, Musashi, and Senko Muramasa were all concentrating on fighting, the poisonous wine that could melt all things came like a flood——
Mr. Samura first saved his own Musashi, and then turned around to save others, but during this period——
Shuten Doji drove the big snake and rushed down from the mountain. Then, when the big snake entangled Musashi...
So, that shadow next to the campfire...
"Hey, good morning. Are you awake?"
Almost instantly, the shadow by the campfire came in front of Fujimaru Ritsuka, it was the evil ghost's beautiful face.
Shuten Doji smiled and stretched out a finger, lifted Fujimaru Ritsuka's chin, and felt Fujimaru Ritsuka's trembling.
"you--"
Fujimaru Ritsuka's expression became fierce, and she struggled hard to fight back.
"Oh, don't move?"
"When I brought you here, you struggled very hard. To be on the safe side, I used a slightly rougher approach. So - if you move around, it will be very painful, right?"
Hearing this, Fujimaru Ritsuka stopped struggling, but still looked at Shuten Doji with an angry look.
This is the kind of person she is - if she knew that she would definitely die here, she would definitely try her best to get a piece of flesh from Shuten Doji's body.
"Okay, okay, don't look at me like that, and don't worry, it's still night and there's no dawn."
"...Haha, if possible, how about we get along well?"
She squatted in front of Fujimaru Ritsuka, licked her lips, and looked at Fujimaru Ritsuka's eyes - as if she was looking at a big meal.
Fujimaru Ritsuka didn't say anything. He couldn't give up on survival at this time, he had to find a way to escape...
"You told me not to look at me like that, but actually I did this just on a whim? I was still on the top of the mountain before, and then I was kicked out by Miss Black Rope - didn't you see those thunders? In fact, those thunders
Are you targeting me?"
"'I really want to eat children' - just when I was thinking this, I suddenly saw you guys going up the mountain. If that's the case, you must do something, right?"
Saying that, Shuten Doji licked his lips again.
"Oh, I wanted to eat you right then, but - you are still a living person after all. In this case, it would be better to eat you alive."
Fujimaru Ritsuka's pupils narrowed.
——To be honest, she is ready to die now and then, but before that——
"Hey, hey, don't move. I'm just joking with you. Don't be so teasing."
"I, I don't take special care of the prey I want to eat. If I wanted to eat you, you would be dead by now? So, please relax a little."
"After all, this kind of thing doesn't happen often, so - come on, do you want a drink?"
As she spoke, Shuten Doji held the wine bowl, poured a glass of wine from her gourd, and then handed it to Fujimaru Ritsuka.
"Think of it, having a drink before going to war - how elegant it is."
Fujimaru Ritsuka looked at the strange-looking ghost wine and his body trembled for a moment.
"...No, not anymore."
She has calmed down now...
In Chaldea, Fujimaru Ritsuka and Shuten-Douji have been getting along for a long time, so...she actually knows Shuten-Douji very well.
Although he has become a heroic swordsman now, some of the original things of the heroic spirit will still remain in this spirit foundation.
Prey that you don't want to eat should be treated well...perhaps, this is what Shuten Doji would do.
This may also be your chance to fight for that glimmer of hope.
"Why do you want to take care of me? We are enemies, right?"
Fujimaru Ritsuka raised his head and asked.
Listening to Fujimaru Ritsuka's question, Shuten Doji showed a thoughtful look on his face.
"Well, as for this question..."
"Look at this."
Shuten Doji moved closer to Fujimaru Ritsuka, and then gently tapped a pair of horns on his head.
"I was born a ghost. These sharp horns make people feel unhappy when they see them, right?"
"But what's surprising is that after I died, I was still a ghost."
"Although I don't know why, I turned into something like a heroic spirit, but a ghost is a ghost, and I will always be a concubine. So-called ghosts——"
As she spoke, she showed a smile.
"Isn't it just to plunder, invade, and love as you please, laugh as much as you want, destroy, and devour?"
"This is a ghost - you have seen it in human stories, right? Is this the ghost that everyone is afraid of?"
"Ghosts are evil people, ghosts are thugs - everyone is afraid of ghosts and hates ghosts."
——Such words came from the mouth of a ghost.
But the face of Shuten Doji...
But there was no impatience or malice whatsoever.
"It doesn't matter if you hate it or not."
"It doesn't matter what a wicked person is."
“Because it’s the nature of ghosts to wreak havoc as they please—isn’t that the nature of ghosts?”
Fujimaru Ritsuka listened to Shuten Doji's arguments in complete silence.
This was not a question she wanted to know.
"What's going on on the mountain? Where are the villagers?"
"I have no idea."
Shuten Doji replied simply.
"But at least in the end, I saw that they were fine."
"I said, I said."
With that said, Shuten Doji moved closer to Fujimaru Ritsuka again, and the two of them were already very close.
Shuten Doji had a very interested expression on his face.
"Don't you have anything else--anything else you want to ask?"
"After all, I am in a good mood right now? We are going to fight next, right? You are a general in my enemy's camp, right?"
"It's amazing, isn't it! And I'm still taking care of you now!"
