Chapter 221: Alexander Seductus Von Mortis
Tanjiro and Inosuke ventured deeper into the forest, the oppressive atmosphere thickening with each step.
The scent of blood and the looming presence of the demon grew stronger, and they knew they were getting closer. But what awaited them next was unlike anything they had faced so far.
Emerging from the shadows was a towering, headless figure. The creature's skin was dark and rough, its massive form radiating power.
In each hand, it gripped a sword, both gleaming wickedly under the faint light that filtered through the trees.
Like the others, this monster was clearly being controlled by the demon's webs, its body moving unnaturally as it awaited their approach.
"What the hell is that?!" Inosuke shouted, his excitement mixing with surprise as he gazed at the monstrous figure.
Tanjiro's eyes narrowed as he assessed the situation. "It's just like the others—it's being controlled. We have to find the threads and cut them, or we'll be fighting endlessly."
The headless beast roared without sound, charging forward with terrifying speed for something so large.
Its swords swung down with brutal force, aiming directly at them. Tanjiro and Inosuke dodged, the ground cracking beneath the impact of the monster's attack.
Inosuke grinned wildly, his instincts kicking in. "No need to hold back now! I'll tear this thing apart!"
Before Tanjiro could say anything, Inosuke leaped toward the headless creature, his twin blades slashing through the air. He aimed for the monster's arms, trying to disable it.
