Supplement: Overlooking the landscape
Demon Slayer: Post-War Special
Character interview, overlooking the scenery
Quote: The guest we interviewed in this episode is the famous Heavenly Punisher - "Phantom Doll" Jean Lonners. Mr. Jean is a very important member of the White World Heavenly Punisher Branch, and is known as one of the top five of the White World Branch. He has attracted people's attention for his excellent comprehensive ability and handsome appearance, but at the same time, many magicians have questions: Mr. Jean used to work under the Blue Sage, the head of the Milton Headquarters, and there is no doubt that working for the Supreme Commander is definitely more comfortable than working for Mr. He, but why did Mr. Jean choose Mr. He Yanfang?

Jean: Reflections touched by the landscape
"Why?" Gene smiled at our question, "Actually, it's not that the head of the Milton headquarters is bad, but I was touched by Mr. He." β
Jean leaned back in his chair and began to recall the scene that he would never forgetβ
"At that time, I was working under the head of the Milton headquarters. Mr. He came to cooperate by chance, and before returning to his branch, the head of the headquarters invited him to climb the highest peak on the edge of the city.
"We were on the top of the hill looking down on the city and it was a very beautiful dusk, and from that angle, the city seemed to be painted with a light golden light......
"Then, I casually asked the question β 'What is your first feeling when you look down on the scenery like this?'
"Without hesitation, the head of the headquarters replied: 'Spectacular. Isn't it amazing that even ordinary scenery can become incomparably magnificent and gorgeous at this height? Isn't it amazing that it is a familiar scenery, but it has such an amazing momentum, which makes people feel that the hard work of climbing all the way up is worth it. β
But Mr. He stared at the scenery and was silent for a moment.
"'It's far away. He replied earnestly, 'Indeed, as Oreo said, even ordinary scenery becomes spectacular and beautiful when viewed.' However, it is also because of this that the familiar scenery has a distance from us, and the overlook makes the familiar scenery lose the reality of "I live in it", and makes me vaguely feel that "I don't belong there". β
"'It's sentimental, pretentious. The head of the headquarters laughed heartily.
Mr. He also smiled: "It's not that I deliberately set the bar apart. I sometimes admire you for always being able to stand at the top and command the battle with great pride. I always wanted to walk down the mountain, I wanted to stand with the warriors I led, and I always felt uneasy if I didn't. β
"'Your problem is that you are too gentle and kind, and there must always be someone in the crowd who stands on a high place and commands. The head of the headquarters patted him on the shoulder, and thus ended the simple conversation.
But I remember their answer. I feel like their answers actually reflect their differences. β

The difference between the sages: the blue eagle and the silver python
In the face of our curious eyes, Jean slowly spoke his thoughts -
"The head of the headquarters is the kind of leader who always stands at the top, and he sees the magnificence, so he is always so ambitious, and tells us aloud what he sees in the glorious prospect - what battle he commands is not adventurous and magnificent?
But in fact, it is precisely because we have always been at the top that we who look down on us are not the real ones in his eyes. He is the most combat-ready fighter in the world, but we are not. Perhaps the landscape from the overlook would have been spectacular in the most ordinary, and he always overestimated our abilities, thinking that we would be able to accomplish all his great plans......"
Seeing our surprise, Jean smiled bitterly and pointed to the filing cabinet beside him: "Actually, no, you will know better if you look through the documents, under the countless victories, the Blue World Heavenly Punisher is scarred. Sometimes we joke that the head of the headquarters is a queen ant, and we are countless ordinary soldiers and ants, fighting bloodily on the distant battlefield under the orders of the king. β
As he spoke, Jean sat up straight, his expression serious and solemn: "But in my opinion, the head of the headquarters is a blue eagle. He is lonely and proud, he sees the future and the path that we cannot see, and he flies high and high on the great path of his own that we may not be able to follow...... The head of the headquarters is actually very far away from us. Of course, we admire the head of the headquarters, he is undoubtedly a great man and a sage, but it is precisely because of this that we are unattainable - we are tired of following his words. β
"But Mr. He is different. In contrast to the nervous seriousness of the mention of the head of Milton's headquarters, Jean smiled and continued to lie on the back of his chairβ
As he replied, he saw the magnificence and remoteness of being at the top, and he always wanted to return and blend in with the familiar landscape, rather than looking at it for a long time. So, you can see the style of the punisher of the white world - to do what he can, to advocate meticulous and ingenious tactics. β
"Mr. He is very fond of combat power, and he knows the abilities and strengths and weaknesses of each of our subordinates well, so he always carefully considers how to maximize our strengths without injuring us. He stands at the top, but often not at the top. We can see the calmness and solidity of the Bai Shitian Punisher, and judging from the achievements in all aspects, Mr. He, who led all this, is indeed a sage worth following. β
"That's how I made the selection. The more approachable one was chosen between the two sages, and that was all. β

The one who provoked the silver python
After listening to the narration, we asked him again that he had encountered many challenges in the process of following Mr. He. The Bai Shitian Punisher Branch's resources are relatively lacking, and its combat effectiveness is a little weaker than that of the headquarters, which must have made his work harder, right? Even so, does he like Mr. He as much as he did at the beginning?
Indeed, because he is too close, in our eyes, Mr. He is not the public idol who is called a sage with the head of the headquarters, but a long-winded, tough, and cautious boss, who is the object of daily slander. He smiled happily and could see that he and Mr. He were close friends.
"But no matter what, he's still the same giant silver python. With the courage and composure to dare to face the demon king, as well as the determination and courage to fight for thousands of years, I admire him. β
"I think this might be my mission, to push him back to the top when necessary. Despite his many faults, Mr. He is still the white sage, and his shortcomings make him more real. I will help him until I die in battle. β
For Mr. Jean, who has worked very happily, we sincerely wish him to be so happy and make more contributions to the construction of Baishi.
ββΒ·ββFollow-up
When we were leaving after the interview, we met Mr. He Yanfang in the hallway.
"Jean, what kind of plan are you?" After greeting us, Mr. He directly discussed the plan with Jean, "Sacrifice Future City? This kind of high-damage battle is not our style. β
"You should believe me once, you've been cautious and conservative for so long that you've forgotten that you're one of the strongest Heavenly Punishers in actual combat power second only to the head of the headquarters!
"It's true that this plan can be implemented if it is improved a little...... In any case, the masses must be protected......" Mr. He pondered.
"OK, I'll deploy it, you can rest assured that you can liberate the forces...... Hmm, Abel, I'll talk to him in detail...... Yes, I promise they'll all be safe, so be careful yourself!"
The plan they discussed, we now knowβ
That was the battle of Future City that shook the world a few months ago, Mr. He used the power of the silver python to teach the demon king a hard lesson, and cooperated with the blue sage in the air, and worked together to fight a spectacular battle of meteor shower and silver sea of fire.
The head of Milton is a great man, and so is Mr. HeβJean's answer reinforces us.
A bird's-eye view of the differences between the sages, Jean let us know more about the two sages. Next time, we'll be interviewing more Heavenly Punishers to show you what the Heavenly Punisher is all about!

[Notes on Supplements]
As mentioned in the text before, the Heavenly Punisher has a special magic journal "Demon Slayer", and now this supplement is an attempt to reflect the content of "Demon Slayer". Tell the story in another way, I don't know if the effect is good or not, please give more opinions.
The supplement is a supplement to the battle for Future City, which is mainly planned by Jean, who understands Mr. He's strength and lays out grand plans, and also relies on the fact that he was once a powerful subordinate of the blue sage Oreo Milton, Jean pulls Oreo, who is also busy in the blue world, to cooperate. But the main purpose of the supplement is to explain the difference between the two sages and to make a supplementary description of the images of the two sages. There will be many stories about the Heavenly Punisher, and all five sages will appear, and the blue sage Oreo is currently a more important relation, so it is necessary to use a little more ink to describe him.
That's all for the supplement, thank you for your support, and I hope you enjoy reading!
