"Why do you feel the need to tell me all this? This move must be your trump card, right? Surprisingly, it might really be capable of taking us both down."

Abel asked curiously.

"Maybe it's just intuition. My intuition tells me that even if I didn't say anything, the final Blood Demon Art would still not kill you. But the guy earlier, it's hard to say, he'd probably be crippled if not dead."

"So, I want to use this information in exchange for one last look at my sister."

Gyutaro's expression was very calm; he knew he was about to die, and his only lingering attachment was the desire to see his sister once more.

He was afraid that his sister, who was so prone to tears, would be so heartbroken at his death that she might just stay in one place and cry endlessly.

Since they chose to become demons together in the past, it was only right that they journey to hell together now.

"I accept your trade."

Abel stated, and with his beast claw, he ripped off the remaining half of the opponent's head. At the same time, he threw the half-corpse in his hand with force, and with another kick, he sent the other half flying.

With preparation, his movements were extremely fast.

Gyutaro did not lie; within half a second, his corpse burst out with the last of the Blood Demon Art.

A great number of thin, blade-like blood slashes destroyed everything around him with immense power!

If Abel were to take that head-on, he estimated that his Ice Dragon armor might not hold up. He probably wouldn't die, but he'd surely be severely injured.

Of course, with his energy projection body, it didn't matter anymore.

Then, Abel took Daki head, which was temporarily stored within his beast head, and threw it near Gyutaro's head, then turned around and walked away.

He had no interest in listening to this final farewell between the demon siblings.

They probably wouldn't want anyone else to disturb them anyway.

"Big brother? How come your head was chopped off too, and even split in two from the middle? We're finished, completely finished. We're all going to die, sob sob sob."

"How can you have the nerve to scold me? You couldn't even handle a few small fries and just knew to cry at the end."

"Why didn't you come to save me then? Do you know how terrifying that monster was?"

"I was fighting with the pillar! If that monster hadn't gotten hold of a weapon, how could I possibly lose?"

"Well, you should have stopped that monster!"

"I told you, I was tied up with that pillar and couldn't get through!"

"I'm so annoyed, it's all your fault! You idiot!"

"You're the idiot!"

"Sob sob sob, I can't accept this, I really can't accept it. Think of something, big brother. I don't want to die."

"Ume!!!"

As he watched his sister dissipate before his eyes, Gyutaro finally remembered.

His sister's name was Ume, not Daki.

The memories that had already died began to 'attack' him.

"Ume, if we could start over, would you still want to call me your brother?"

"You idiot, what nonsense are you talking about! No matter how many times we restart, I still want to be your sister. Even if we become demons together, I have never regretted it."

"Then let's make a promise for the next life, we..."

With a gust of wind, the final dust also vanished out of sight.

[Upper Moon Six], extermination complete.

Abel deactivated his form and all of his full armament, looking over the brothel that had nearly been destroyed in the battle, he felt that his rating for this mission might not reach the expected level.

"Hey, can you still hold on?"

Abel planted his double swords into the ground, then wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, and said without any concern, "I should survive this. My resistance to poison is still too low. After I get back this time, I plan to eat poison like it's my meal."

"There's really no need for that!"

"Remember to return these two swords to that 'blockhead' for me, I'm leaving."

"Leaving? Hey, I still have so many questions to ask!"

"Why bother asking so much, I'm not interested in men."

"I'm not interested in men either; I have three wives!"

"Tch, sooner or later, I'll have even more. No, definitely more than you, stop showing off."

"Are you really leaving? At least leave a name?"

"Abel, Gustav Abel."

"Gus what? That's a strange name. My name is Uzui Tengen, remember that."

"I'll remember it when you turn into a woman."

"Darn bastard, how dare you talk like that to the god presiding over the Festival of Splendor! Anyway, what kind of breathing technique are you using? I've never seen it before?"

"A self-created Dark Breathing technique. Alright, that's the last question."

Seeing Uzui Tengen about to transform into a whirlwind of inquiries, Abel quickly made his escape.

"Abel, Dark Breathing... Looks like I'll have to inquire with my lord about this after I get back."

"This time, being able to kill the Upper Moon Six so smoothly, this mysterious person has played an indispensable role."

"But why have I never heard of such a powerful person before?"

"And to think... Is this guy really even human?"

Watching Abel's disappearing figure, Uzui Tengen shook his head.

...

When Abel's consciousness returned to his own body, the system's notification sound promptly chimed in.

[Intermediate Prayer Order has been completed, customer has given three stars (average praise)!]

[Review: Although the Upper Moon Six was successfully killed at the end, most of the courtesans were destroyed during the fight, resulting in heavy casualties among the innocent people. The Demon Slayer Corps members were also seriously injured. However, when this news spread, it still greatly boosted morale. Is the darkness before dawn finally passing?]

[Three-star reviews neither increase nor decrease the basic transaction point rewards; chosen order contents have been completed and rewards are distributed automatically, please check them yourself.]

As Abel expected, he didn't receive a four-star rating, which was quite disappointing.

It was a reminder for him that next time he encounters a similar order, he must try to avoid causing such significant casualties among the innocents.

Even though it wasn't part of the actual content of the order, it seemed like a hidden condition that could affect the final review.

"Let's see what the reward actually is?"

After receiving 3,000 transaction points, Abel immediately checked the selected rewards.
