I Became Spider-Man's Cousin in Anime Crossover

Chapter 375 is matching you with an "evenly matched opponent".

With the intervention of Riley, an existence beyond the common understanding of our time...

The Infinite City battle, which was originally destined to end in a Pyrrhic victory at the cost of countless lives, has now turned into a one-sided affair.

The Demon Slayer Corps not only seized the initiative from the start, but also, in a very short time, with Riley's unfathomable strength and precise tactical guidance, they swiftly and decisively defeated Upper Moon Two Doma and Upper Moon One Kokushibo, two powerful figures who had stood at the pinnacle of the demon race for hundreds of years!

With their demise, what about Kaigaku, who has only recently gained a large amount of demon blood from Muzan through betraying his master and begging for mercy, barely managing to ascend to the Upper Rank Six, and is currently the only surviving Upper Rank demon...?

Riley took care of him very easily.

But just like Riley deliberately left Doma to be dealt with by Shinobu and the others.

For such scum, whose every act is filled with betrayal and lies...

Riley already had a better executioner in mind.

Look, here it is...

After the battle with Kokushibo, Riley, guided by Justice's route planning, led Tanjiro and Muichiro to meet up with Gyomei Himejima, the Stone Pillar, who had witnessed Muichiro being forcibly taken away and was anxiously rushing to provide support.

After a brief exchange of pleasantries to confirm their friendly status,

Without wasting any words, Riley directly used his informational advantage as a transmigrator to reveal the tragic truth behind the decades-long torment that had plagued Xingming day and night.

"Mr. Xingming, you may not believe it, but I must tell you that on that night that changed your life, the reason why the children you adopted rushed out was not because they were afraid of evil spirits and chose to abandon you."

"They thought it was too dangerous for you to face the evil spirits alone since you are blind. So they ran outside desperately, trying to grab the farm tools in the yard as weapons so they could turn back and protect you... protect their most beloved and gentlest teacher."

Riley's voice was calm yet possessed a penetrating power, clearly reaching Xingming's ears amidst the chaos of the Infinite City.

His tone was calm and steady, and every word struck Xingming's heart like a heavy drumbeat.

"What...did you...say?!"

As soon as Riley finished speaking, Xingming was stunned, as if struck by lightning.

After a brief silence, she asked, her voice trembling with disbelief, word by word.

"So... I... am not hated by the children...?"

"That's right. Contrary to your guess, they love you deeply and value you more than their own lives. That's why they insisted on rushing out despite your objections, just to do everything they could to give you even the slightest chance of survival."

"How...how could this be...Silly children, you..."

The sudden truth not only shattered the shackles that had been weighing on Xingming's heart for years.

After putting himself in the other person's shoes and just imagining it in his mind, Xingming couldn't help but shed two streams of hot tears, muttering to himself and sobbing uncontrollably.

"Furthermore, the children's previous collective rejection and expulsion of Kaigaku was not without malicious intent."

Normally, Riley would wait until the other person had calmed down before continuing.

But out of the corner of his eye, he glanced at the results of Justice's detection and determined that Zenitsu Agatsuma, who was moving at high speed, was about to run into Kaigaku.

To prevent Xingming from missing the chance to take revenge himself, as happened in the original story, Riley had no choice but to continue speaking and reveal more of the truth to Xingming.

"They did this because Kaigaku, for his own selfish reasons, repeatedly stole the temple's essential supplies and money, and refused to change his ways despite repeated warnings. The children made that decision to protect this 'home'."

"And the culprit who caused that tragedy back then was none other than Kaigaku, that complete ingrate! When the demons attacked, it was he who, in order to survive, secretly kicked over the crucial wisteria incense burner at the temple entrance, which was used to ward off evil spirits!"

Upon hearing this, Xingming clenched his massive iron fists tightly. His knuckles even turned slightly white from unconsciously exerting too much force. Even the chains forged from fine iron creaked under the weight.

It turns out he had wronged those kind children for so long...

An indescribable, complex emotion, a mixture of overwhelming anger, endless grief, deep self-blame, and final relief, surged forth from the broad and mountain-like chest of Jimeijima Gyomei, like a torrent bursting its banks!

The truth is just like this!

He has spent many years cultivating himself in vain, yet he has failed to see the true nature of those around him, and has wronged those sincere children for so many years!

The real culprit was that traitor he had once carefully taught and placed high hopes on, but who turned out to be heartless and had a long history of misdeeds!

"...At a time like this, telling me all this specifically can't just be to untangle my knots... Spider-Man, do you already know where Kaigaku is now?!"

After a brief silence, Xingming, though still with tears streaming down his face, no longer sounded confused or sorrowful in his voice...

All that remained was the resolute determination of a Vajra's wrathful gaze and the chilling killing intent!

At this moment, he was no longer the compassionate monk.

Rather, he is an Arhat who will deliver the final judgment for the children who died unjustly!

Riley didn't say anything, only slightly turning his head in response.

Meanwhile, Justice had already completed a large-scale scan of the complex structure of the Infinite Castle, and in the large-scale screening, accurately located the real-time coordinates of Kaigaku, whose aura far surpassed that of ordinary demons.

"Come with me."

As Riley responded succinctly, he didn't forget to meet Tanjiro's gradually resigned and Muichiro's bewildered and innocent gaze, and reached out to tuck Muichiro and Tanjiro under his arms, one on each side.

Then, it burst forth with astonishing speed, its figure flashing in and out of sight, like a ghost, rushing off in one direction.

At the same time, furious Gyoumei Himejima, almost the instant Riley finished speaking, took heavy steps and followed closely behind Riley.

Meanwhile, in another intricate and dimly lit corridor of the Infinite City.

Just as Justice had predicted.

After receiving news of his grandfather's death, Zenitsu Agatsuma's demeanor changed drastically. He traversed the Infinite Castle, searching for Kaigaku's whereabouts with a clear objective.

Ultimately, it's unclear whether it was Nakime's secret assistance or some divine intervention.

Zenitsu Agatsuma, having traveled unimpeded, found Kaigaku, who at this very moment had completely fallen into demonhood, in his prime!
