The Joy Demon launched a sonic attack on Tanjiro, mainly to prevent Tanjiro from continuing to tip off Genya and prevent Tanjiro's voice from reaching Genya Shinazugawa's ears.
Genya Shinazugawa, who had already received the message, suddenly turned his body towards his west and scanned his surroundings. However, he still didn't see the figure of Hantengu's main body.
But Tanjiro said that he was nearby, so he should obviously be within visible range.
Finally, Genya Shinazugawa looked up at the trees above his head. Just as Genya Shinazugawa looked up, Genya Shinazugawa heard a subtle commotion coming from the grass at his feet. Immediately, Genya Shinazugawa looked down.
As a result, he saw subtle fluctuations in the grass. Could it be some small animal?!
Genya Shinazugawa immediately steadied himself and suddenly used the short sword in his hand to push the grass away, seemingly planning to drive out the things in the grass unexpectedly.
With this push, something did run out of the grass. Genya Shinazugawa took a closer look and found that it was a very small person. The size was even smaller than a baby, just like a mouse.
Immediately, Genya Shinazugawa realized that this little person was the fifth demon he was looking for, Hantengu's main body.
No wonder he hadn't been able to see him all along. So that's what it was.
The Hantengu's main body, which was as short as a mouse, fled quickly after being discovered by Genya Shinazugawa.
Seeing that this little thing was so fast, Genya Shinazugawa immediately ran after him. If he was slow for a while, it was estimated that he would disappear.
If he wanted to find him again at that time, it would take some effort again.
Moreover, Genya Shinazugawa also heard the piercing sonic waves, so he knew in his heart that it was unlikely that Tanjiro would be able to transmit location information to him again. Therefore, he must not lose track of the target that had appeared.
"Don't run!"
Genya Shinazugawa shouted immediately.
However, Genya Shinazugawa's shout was destined to have no effect. If Hantengu's main body would stop, it would not only be strange, but it would also mean danger.
During the chase, Genya Shinazugawa took out his firearm, a hot weapon, and aimed it at Hantengu's main body. Finally, he pulled the trigger.
Although the scattered ammunition didn't hit the small Hantengu's main body, it did stop his figure briefly.
After avoiding the ammunition, Hantengu's main body started running again.
However, it was also because of this brief pause that the distance between Genya Shinazugawa and Hantengu's main body was greatly reduced.
"Don't hurt me! I'm just a weak life!" Hantengu's main body pleaded with Genya Shinazugawa not to hurt him.
But similarly, Genya Shinazugawa was obviously not going to listen to him.
"Weak my ass! You bastard who deserves to die!" Genya Shinazugawa said angrily immediately.
"Wuwuwuwu~ I'm just a pitiful and helpless old man! Why do you want to hurt me!" Hantengu's main body continued to say pitifully.
Just as the voice fell, Genya Shinazugawa aimed at Hantengu's main body again and fired another shot.
The figures of the two became much closer again. When the distance was already close enough to swing the short Nichirin Blade to Hantengu's main body, Genya Shinazugawa swung the sword without hesitation.
