Pillar Destroyer Call Me Captain

Chapter 30
Bai Ye was able to coldly refuse because he couldn't empathize with the man.

There are too many miserable people in the world, and there are too many things that can't be done. He can only do things within the scope of his ability.

But Tanjiro was different, he could smell the desperate aura on the man, as if he had fallen into a bottomless abyss.

So he, like the man, shed painful tears.

"I……"

Tanjirou's gentle eyes with watery light relieved the man from despair.

The atmosphere relaxed a little.

But the pain of parting will not disappear because of Tanjiro's tenderness.

The man's son seems to have been pronounced dead.

The man wiped away tears.

Maybe he didn't want Tanjirou to be sad because of his tears.

And it was this relaxation that seemed to make things take a new turn.

"Maybe, the reality is not as bad as we think."

Bai Ye, who had been silent all this time, suddenly spoke.

Because just now, his quest system, which had been silent for a long time, actually released a quest on its own initiative.

【Limited time task】

Help find Yuta Liuyuan, son of Liuyuanxiong.

Reward: Mercenary qualification certificate × 1
Time limit: 24:00:00
At first, Bai Ye thought that his eyes were lost.

After all, the mission reward this time is a mercenary qualification certificate, which is an item worth [-] yuan!

Now it's just a task of finding someone, but Bai Ye is really surprised that there are such rich rewards!
here.There should be a lot of hidden secrets.

Bai Ye murmured secretly in his heart.

"You, what did you just say?"

Others couldn't understand Bai Ye's astonishment at the mission rewards.

But they were attracted by Bai Ye's words just now!

A gleam of light suddenly flashed in the man's gray eyes, and he quickly grabbed Bai Ye's hand, like grabbing a life-saving rope, and shouted excitedly:
"What did you just say!? Things aren't that bad!?"

"Are you saying that Yuta is still alive?"

"The specific situation, let us tell you after we confirm it."

Bai Ye smiled, and unobtrusively removed the hands tightly held by the uncle, showing an awkward smile on his face.

Instead of answering the question of the man, that is, Liu Yuanxiong, Bai Ye turned his attention to Tanjirou and said:

"Tanjiro, I wonder if you can help me complete this task together?"

"Task?"

Tanjiro didn't know the meaning of mercenaries, nor did he understand the meaning of missions, but he knew that Bai Ye was talking about finding the uncle's son.

For this, he is of course obliged.

"Hmm! No problem!"

"Well!"

Bai Ye stretched out her thumb, showing a row of white teeth and said with a smile:

"Uncle, I will accept your commission!"

The sun shone through, revealing a star-like white light on the white teeth.

……

……

After a hasty breakfast, Bai Ye took Tanjirou with him and started on the road.

Bai Ye, who originally planned to pick up Nezuko, had to entrust this matter to Aman, and asked him to pick up Tanjiro's family with Tanjiro's personal letter.

Fortunately, their home is not far from Qingshan Village, and it only takes a few hours to come and go. In addition to the delay in packing their luggage, they can still reach Qingshan Town at two or three o'clock in the afternoon. Dangerous possibility.

It's a pity that Taketen Shinichi needs to stay to protect Qiandao Sakura, who is a thin blood, otherwise he will be sent to protect Nezuko, and it will be safe.

With the sentence "professional things are left to professional people", Liu Yuanxiong, who wanted to follow, was sent to Qingshan to wait for the good news.

Bai Ye and Tanjirou followed Liu Yuanxiong's introduction and started walking along the path to the mountain they often went to.

Now it is the tail of autumn, the leaves turned yellow and then turned brown again, and fell to the ground one by one, telling people that winter is coming.

The sun is dim and the weather is gloomy. Walking among the trees, Bai Ye only feels a sense of desolation.

Having said that, this is the first time he has walked out of Qingshan Town by himself after time travel.

Since Tanjiro's home is nearby, maybe he will have a chance to meet Tanjiro's "senior brother" Tomioka Yoshiyuki when winter comes!

I don't know if it is possible to let the members of the Ghost Killing Squad join the mercenary group!
With the aptitude of "Pillar", the worst thing to do is the potential of SR.

Maybe most of them are SSRs!
After all, this year's pillars are all extremely powerful.

"Brother Bai Ye..."

Tanjiro, who was following Bai Ye, spoke suddenly, and the two of them stepped on the withered leaves all the way forward, making a rattling sound.

"What's the matter?" Bai Ye tilted his head slightly, with his arms resting behind his head, and while looking at the surrounding environment, he showed a relaxed smile, obviously looking like he was out for a picnic.

Tanjiro is still a little uncomfortable with Bai Ye's relaxation. After all, according to their previous assumptions, this trip between the two is a "ghost hunting trip".

Thinking of this, Tanjiro felt goosebumps all over his body.

"Are there really ghosts in this world?"

"That depends on how you look at it..."

Bai Ye replied leisurely.

Tanjiro was puzzled, and cast doubtful eyes on Shiroya.

"Ghosts, generally speaking, should refer to the souls of dead people. Most of them are imagined by people who are reluctant to die."

"As for the real result, this is unknown. After all, no one can say with certainty that they have seen dead souls."

"However, such a ghost is different from the ghost we are looking for..."

"different?"

Tanjiro was slightly taken aback, so they are really going to find ghosts?

Bai Ye continued to explain:
"What we are looking for this time is actually a man-eating monster. They come out at night and are afraid of the sun, but they have the habit of eating people!"

"And what's even more frightening is that their essence is actually a real human being!"

Bai Ye's eyes suddenly became serious, and a thick murderous intent permeated the air.

Bai Ye doesn't hate ghosts, but he hates people who make trouble for others!

Tanjiro couldn't help trembling when he smelled this breath, he could feel what this killing intent meant...

Brother Bai Ye, he killed someone! ! !

"Tanjiro, there are always all kinds of miserable people in this world."

"There are people who can get through misery and get on with life on their own."

"However, some people stepped into the abyss and sacrificed their souls to the devil, thus becoming monsters called ghosts."

"Although the latter is equally pitiful, and most of the time they are forced or unaware..."

"But after gaining strength, they began to indulge, and they are no longer worthy of being called human beings."

"At that time, we can't have any hesitation."

While talking, Bai Ye suddenly stopped, stretched out his hand and pointed in front of him:

"Tanjiro, it looks like we've arrived."

"I seem to smell it, a sad breath." Tanjiro murmured.

"That's not grief, that's death."

Bai Ye patted Tanjiro on the head, and walked over directly.

Compared with the lushness of the forest, the environment here is indeed a bit more desolate, but the sunlight can still shine in directly.

After looking around the surrounding environment, Bai Ye couldn't help feeling strange.

There is plenty of sunshine here, so it stands to reason that there should be no ghosts...

It should be said that it is a task to reward [-] worth of essence items, and it really can't be solved so easily.

Fortunately, he came prepared today, and specially brought a cheat to go out!
Bai Ye turned around and asked Tanjirou directly:
"How about it, Tanjirou, can you smell it?"
