We continued to attack Enmu.
[Activating skill Enhancement Magic Lv. 5.]
[Activating skill Blackening Lv. 6.]
[Activating skill Beastification Lv. 6.]
"Beastification!"
"Breath of Water, Tenth Form!"
While haphazardly applying all my enhancement skills, I wildly unleashed Beastification strikes, and Tanjiro pressed Enmu using Breath of Water.
Enmu swiftly dodged our attacks and activated his Blood Demon Art.
"Blood Demon Art: Forced Sleep — Whisper of Hypnosis"
[Character Enmu activates Blood Demon Art: Forced Sleep — Whisper of Hypnosis.]
"It won't work!!"
[Activating skill Dispel Lv. 1.]
"By the light of purification!"
I immediately nullified his Blood Demon Art and quickly formed a hand seal.
[Activating skill Fireball Jutsu Lv. 5.]
The giant fireball that flew out went to swallow Enmu whole, but he barely dodged it.
"Zadkiel!!"
[Activating skill Zadkiel Lv. 4.]
Cold energy rapidly spread from my feet, instantly freezing Enmu's legs solid.
"Now's the time!!"
At my shout, Tanjiro immediately charged forward and cried out.
"Breath of Water, Tenth Form: Constant Flux!"
Then, Tanjiro, rotating like a surging dragon, delivered multiple slashes to Enmu. Enmu barely endured the attacks and retreated backward.
"Kkh..."
The creature's expression gradually revealed a hint of anxiety.
According to the original story, he should have fused with the train while Tanjiro's group was asleep.
However, due to my intervention, Tanjiro's group did not fall asleep, and he was unable to naturally fuse with the train, fighting us as he was.
"E.G.O Magic Bullet, Second Round — Inevitable Bullet!"
Bang!
Enmu barely dodged the bullet flying at high speed, but...
"Keuheuk!"
The flying magic bullet changed direction all too naturally and hit Enmu's leg. The creature, who lost its leg in an instant, lost its balance.
"Now!"
I took out Kayserium from my inventory and immediately activated a skill.
[Activating skill Dragon Slash Lv. 4.]
I immediately wrapped the sword in draconic energy and swung it toward Enmu. The dragons slashed Enmu three times.
"Kgh...!"
From the recent attack, Enmu lost both his arms, and wounds appeared all over his body.
"Breath of Water! First Form: Water Surface Slash!"
Tanjiro, who had rushed forward, swung his sword horizontally like a broadly spread water surface and severed Enmu's neck.
"Ah..."
Enmu's head, flying through the air, soon fell at my feet.
Bang!
I fired a bullet into that bastard's head, shattering it.
[Constellations of the Absolute Good alignment nod at your actions.]
[You have received 5000 coins in sponsorship.]
[You have defeated Lower Moon One of the Twelve Kizuki, Enmu.]
[You have acquired 5000 coins as a reward.]
I watched the creature's body slowly turn to dust and crumble away, then took a breath.
'Phew... It's over. Then let's quickly get out of here.... What? Why isn't the exit appearing? Where am I supposed to go?'
No matter how long I waited, no indication of where the escape route was generated appeared, making me feel something was off.
[Warning: A powerful entity is descending to this location!]
At the Great Sage's urgent warning, I quickly grabbed Tanjiro and retreated backward.
KWA-BOOOOOM!!!!
Simultaneously, something descended at high speed and smashed the lead car to pieces.
CRASH! THUD! BOOM!!
As the lead car was destroyed by something that fell from the sky, the rear cars were momentarily sent flying through the air from the impact before derailing completely.
"Cough..cough..What just happened? What on earth fell!?"
I quickly descended to the ground, brushed off the dust kicked up by the derailing train, and checked my surroundings.
"Fortunately, the people seem unharmed...."
Currently, the other party members were rescuing people from the derailed train.
"So what was that just now?"
I quickly scanned the area, and the moment my eyes met with someone standing in the distance, all the hairs on my body stood on end.
'Crazy... crazycrazycrazycrazycrazycrazycrazycrazycrazycrazycrazycrazy'
The overwhelming pressure felt from the being before my eyes....
A being that made me wonder if fighting was even possible with my current strength was looking at me.
[You have met the conditions to acquire a hidden scenario.]
[A hidden scenario has been activated.]
With trembling hands, I checked the hidden scenario.

At the same time, Akaza's yellow eyes met mine, and soon the creature grinned.
Grin.
