39. Death of the Immortal.

In the winter forest near the house, crimson lightning was shining brightly. In the center of this lightning was a huge amount of cut flesh, which formed small mounds. These mounds of flesh gave off an awful sickening smell, as if someone was frying rotten meat with mold.

When the lightning faded, a neatly dressed figure with a crimson katana appeared near the huge amount of "fried" flesh.

Tengoku, after the speed of two swings, felt incredibly cool, at the speed of two swings, it seemed that time itself had slowed down, with such a speed he felt that his body became weightless and he could even stand on the ceiling without using chakra. ...

While Tengoku was enjoying this incredible sensation, on the ground, some pieces of flesh began to bend together. When several dozen pieces of flesh had grown together on the ground, the pitiful figure of Muzan appeared. Now Muzan had an incredibly miserable and terrible look, he was missing both legs and his left arm, and there were no ears on his head, and his nose looked like the nose of some amphibian. Due to the fact that most of his body was destroyed, Muzan was missing about 65-70% of his body, even his hair!

* Author's Note - Imagine Voldemort from Harry Potter, but without legs and one arm. *

Despite the terrible state of Muzan, Tengoku did not regret it at all, Muzan simply killed a huge number of people. Although it was said in the anime and manga that Muzan killed many people, etc. But this was the real world, Tengoku read many reports from demon hunters. Many of these reports talked about the death of people, transformation into demons, massacres, cruel experiments on people, etc., Thousands of other reports. And all these thousands of reports occupied only a small corner in the huge library. Just imagine that Muzan killed 1000 people every 10 years, and during his 1000 years of existence, he killed more than 300,000 people and turned 10,000 people into demons.

Looking at Muzan's wretched body, Tengoku came closer ...

"Well ... How do you feel about despair and death?" Tengoku asked dispassionately.

- I just wanted perfect immortality ... But ... you ... pitiful insects ... always hindered me ... - Muzan barely said.

`` Now only you look the most pathetic. Saying this, Tengoku stuck his katana directly into Muzan's forehead.

Although Muzan was immortal, he still felt pain. With a katana in his forehead, Muzan could only endure the pain by clenching his teeth. (If anyone is wondering why Tengoku stuck a katana in Muzan's forehead, the answer is simple. Tengoku thought Muzan would try to make a demon out of him, although the chances are small enough, it never hurts to be careful.)

While Muzan writhed in pain, dawn finally came. Affectionate sunbeams began to illuminate this winter forest, although the forest was rather dense, but the light still penetrated through the crowns of the trees. And because of the snow, it seemed that the whole forest was covered with white, shiny pollen. And the chirping of Japanese larks enlivens this forest.

When the sun's rays touched Muzan's half-body, his body began to crumble into black ash, which disappeared without a trace in the wind. And from that moment on, a new era began, in which there were no terrible demons. As soon as Muzan disappeared, Tengoku received a notification from the system.

System update? Hmm, that's very good. In anime, manga, and novels, a system update meant new features and functionality. When the interface appeared the inscription "Do you want to get a reward?" Tengoku pressed "Yes". As soon as he did this, another message appeared "You received a system update, do you want to update the system?" And of course Tengoku clicked "Yes" and another notification appeared in the interface "Update will end at 04: 12: 56: 12: 96". Tengoku immediately knew that the system update would be over in four and a half days, the system timer was very accurate because it even showed milliseconds.
