New Quest

Rio supported by Charlotte walked down Mount Fujikasane and returned to the gathering place for the Final Selection participants.

"Very few participants survived."

"Is the number of participants who passed really small?" Rio whispered beside Charlotte's ear.

Currently including Rio and Charlotte, another 18 participants had arrived. Some of them were lightly injured, but there were also heavily injured, even more so than Rio.

Keep in mind, there were over 70+ participants who participated in the Final Selection to become Demon Slayers, but now that there were only 20 people left, this greatly surprised Rio.

"Ri---Shin... You definitely haven't watched the Kimetsu no Yaiba anime, right?" Charlotte barely spoke Rio's real name.

Afraid that the other users would hear the conversation, Charlotte and Rio spoke in low voices.

"Un..." Rio nodded slightly, it was a fact that he had not watched the Kimetsu no Yaiba anime.

"No wonder you've never heard of the name Urokodaki, it seems you're not an otaku because you didn't watch the Kimetsu no Yaiba anime."

"In the original timeline, when the protagonist entered the Final Selection, only 4 participants including himself managed to return alive from Mount Fujikasane."

"So don't be surprised at this time there are only 20 participants who graduated from 70 participants who passed. According to my calculations only less than 10 participants will pass, it seems that the Players are getting good things out of the Starter Pack."

After hearing Charlotte's narration, only now did Rio understand how dangerous Demons were.

For ordinary participants, surviving on Demon-infested Mount Fujikasane for 7 days was extremely difficult. Even players who have gifts from the Starter Pack may not be able to survive.

The reason Rio had no trouble fighting Demons, he learned the Breathing Style from a former Hashira who was a High Rank Demon Slayer and also his attribute points increased to the limit of F Rank due to his reckless act of being struck by lightning!

"Look at the condition of the other participants, they were injured worse than you. Shin, you're just tired which means you're strong enough."

Charlotte patted Rio's shoulder.

"Thanks for the compliment, I guess?" Rio said without changing his expression.

"Congratulations!"

The twins' greeting earlier caught the attention of all the participants at the venue.

Rio, Charlotte and the other participants directed the pair towards the two twins who were walking in front of a tile table covered in purple cloth.

"Congratulations!" Said the white hair twins congratulated all the participants.

"We're glad you're all right." The black hair twins said without a happy expression on their faces.

"Now what should we do?" Ask one of the participants.

"First you will get a uniform… Your body will be measured, after that you will get a rank." The white-haired twins answered the participant's Questions.

The black hair twins gave an explanation of the Demon Slayer's rank: "There are 10 ranks..."

"Kinoe..."

"Kinoto..."

"Hinoe..."

"Hinoto..."

"Tsucinoe..."

"Tsuchinoto..."

"Kanoe..."

"Kanoto..."

"Mizunoe..."

"And Mizunoto."

The two twins took turns telling each other the rankings.

"Right now you are at the lowest rank, which is Mizunoto."

"And..."

*Clap Clap*

"Koak Koak"

The white-haired twins clapped, then a crow chirped from the sky.

20 crows descended from the sky and landed on each participant's shoulder, Rio and Charlotte were no exception.

Some of the participants panicked with the crows suddenly landing on their shoulders, but there were also seemingly unconcerned like Rio, Charlotte and a few other participants.

"From now on the Kasugai Crow will accompany you." The white-haired twins explain the reason for the appearance of the crow.

"Hmmm… These are Kasugai Crows, they have been well trained." Charlotte reached out her finger to stroke the crow's head.

Rio was no longer supported by Charlotte, he looked at the Kasugai Crow on his shoulder without saying anything.

The black haired twins explained what the Kasugai Crow was: "Kasugai crows are crows used for communication."

Seeing that no one was asking any Questions, the twins turned around and simultaneously pulled the purple cloth covering the table.

On the table lay dozens of stones?

"Okay look here, pick your Scarlet Ore."

The two twins stood beside the table and invited participants to pick up a stone named Scarlet Ore on the table.

"Scarlet Ore is used as a forging material for the Nichirin Sword to destroy Demon and protect yourself… You will choose it yourself.

All participants advance to choose Scarlet Ore and will be forged into the Sword of Nichirin for 10 to 15 days.

But there were two people who didn't take the Scarlet Ore that caught the attention of the twins.

"Why don't you two choose Scarlet Ore?" Asked the white-haired twins looking at Rio and Charlotte who didn't take the Scarlet Ore.

"No need, I already have the Nichirin Sword."

Rio pulled the sword slightly from the scabbard, instantly the blade turned yellow.

"I also have the Sword of Nichirin, there's no need for me to take the Scarlet Ore."

Different from Rio who only drew his sword slightly, Charlotte took the sword out of the scabbard completely and the color on the blade changed to a pink color.

"Even though you both already have the Nichirin Sword, there's no guarantee that your sword won't be damaged when facing off against a demon."

"So it's good to take the Scarlet Ore if the Nichirin Sword breaks." The black hair twins gave advice.

Rio and Charlotte looked at each other, in the end they also chose Scarlet Ore.

"Then the Final Selection has been completed, thank you very much for participating."

The two twins slightly bowed their heads in front of everyone as an expression of gratitude.

The next second the Reincarnation Room system notification sounded in the minds of all the users on Mount Fujikasane.

[Ding! Congratulations on completing the Quest]

[You got 500 Reincarnation Points]

[Ding! You chose the Demon Slayer Corps side]

[Loading Quest....]

The users breathed a sigh of relief once the Quest announcement had been completed, meaning they would not receive a death penalty for failing to complete the Quest.

But they are nervous again with the emergence of a new Quest, if the first Quest is already very difficult, then what about the next Quest?

While most of the users were afraid to see the new Quest, Rio clicked on the Quest list without any hesitation.
