Chapter 3: Demon Slayer's Blade

Demon Slayer is an anime that tells the story of a battle between a man-eating demon and a ghost-hunting demon squad, during the Taisho period in Japan.

Unlike ordinary humans, demons have a long lifespan, a strong body, a quick recovery ability, and extraordinary blood ghost magic.

Aside from not being able to bask in the sun, these demons are worthy of the name of perfect creatures.

On the other hand, the members of the Demon Slayer who fought with their breathing techniques and swordsmanship.

They are all mortal beings in the flesh, ordinary people.

That's why this battle between man and demon is so cruel.

"Yes, ghost?"

A voice of surprise filled with confusion came from Micah's mouth, and his face was full of incredulity.

Taking Micha's expression into his eyes, Mizuzhu Tomioka Yoshiyoshi already understood what was going on.

The other party should have misunderstood him before.

Just as Tomioka was about to explain, the ghost girl who was restrained by him suddenly broke free of his palm and threw herself on the boy who fell to the ground.

"Oops!"

As an experienced member of the Demon Slayer Squad, Yoshiyoshi Tomioka knows it well.

At this time, the ghost girl who bleed too much has fallen into a state of hunger, and in this state, the ghost has no reason to exist.

They will frantically bite at the humans around them, even if they are his relatives.

And with his current position, I'm afraid he can't safely save the boy who was knocked down by him.

But just when Tomioka regretted it, the girl didn't bite the boy, but protected him behind him.

Then he pounced on Tomioka Yoshiyu, as if he wanted to defeat Tomioka Yoshiyoshi who hurt the boy.

But she was soon knocked unconscious to the ground.

But even so, the previous performance of the ghost girl made the heart of the water column keep vibrating.

"Hell, there is still reason!"

The voice was made by Micah, who was standing behind Tomioka Yoshiyu, and after being called out, he had been standing there all the way back to the scene.

"I'm really sorry for my previous shooting, I thought it was a dirty samurai who bullied a girl. You should be a member of the Ghost Slayer, right? ”

After recognizing the current situation, Micah, who wanted to take the opportunity to join the Demon Slayer team, had already started performing.

Seeing that the other party was still silent, Micah pretended not to know and continued: "I have been looking for your traces. ”

"My name is Micah, and I was originally a hunter in the mountains, but one day I didn't return home in time because I was out selling prey, and I was lucky enough to escape from the attack of evil spirits, and since that day I have been wandering around, looking for traces of evil spirits and legendary ghost-slaying swordsmen."

"Can you let me join the Ghost Slayer?"

Looking at Micah's fierce gaze and examining his immature appearance, Tomioka Yoshiyong, who had been silent, said lightly: "The crossbow is of little use to the evil spirits. ”

"I know, but I don't have any weapons other than this. Left and right are just one death, and don't all those who die early and late die have to die? ”

Hearing Micha's response, Tomioka's heart was touched again.

He knew very well that if a boy like Micah was allowed to wander any further, he would inevitably die in the mouth of an evil ghost in some unknown corner.

Thinking of this, this water pillar, who is different from the indifference on the outside, is actually extremely gentle on the inside, has already made a decision.

Seeing that the other party fell into silence again, Micah also closed his mouth in recognition, leaned against the trunk of a tree next to him, closed his eyes, and thought about the current situation.

Soon, the knocked out teenager had woken up.

As soon as he woke up, the boy quickly looked around, looking for traces of his sister.

When he saw his sister lying safely beside him, he was relieved.

Seeing the boy wake up, Yoshiyoshi Tomioka, who had been meditating with his eyes closed, suddenly said: "Go and visit the old man who lives in the Sasagiyama mountain range and is named Hiroshiyoshi Tsuki, you told him that Tomioka Yoshiyoshi asked you to come." ”

"There's no sunlight right now, so there should be no problem, but don't take your sister out into the sun."

After glancing at Micah and the boy and girl, Tomioka disappeared into place.

Unlike the young man with a puzzled face, Micah, who had received permission from Tomioka's words, couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth.

In this way, he was able to come into contact with breathing and swordsmanship.

Thinking of this, Micah, who was full of joy in his heart, walked up to the doubtful young man and helped him up.

"How's it going, are you okay?"

"You're the one who shot an arrow to save your beans just now."

Because of the location, the scene where Micah shot an arrow to save your beans before was naturally included in the eyes of the boy, so for Micah, the boy was full of gratitude.

"At the time, I thought that the other party was the kind of evil and cold-blooded samurai, so I rushed forward on impulse. By the way, my name is Micah, what about you? ”

"My name is Tanjiro Kamado, and that's my sister, Kamado Bean."

Sure enough, it was him!

Micah said secretly in his heart.

Who would have thought that this ordinary charcoal boy in front of him would become the strongest swordsman who killed the ghost king in the future.

Recalling the gentle character of Tanjiro Kamado in the anime, Micha's eyes are also full of gentleness.

After all, who wouldn't love making friends with this kind of person?

"O beans! She's become a ghost. ”

"Hmm!"

Tanjiro Kamado's face visibly languished with the naked eye, and it was obvious that this incident hit him hard.

But he quickly cheered up, recalling the previous confrontation with Tomioka Yoshiyu, and Tanjiro Kamado said firmly: "I will take You Douzi to find evil spirits, to find a way to turn Your Douzi back into a human." ”

"In that case, then we have to go to this Misty Mountain!"

Looking at the gloomy sky, Micah said quietly.

...

After that, Micah introduces Tanjiro Kamado to some things related to the Demon Slayer and makes him understand the purpose of going to Mt. Sasagiri.

That is, apprenticeship.

The reason why the members of the Demon Slayer Team in this realm are able to fight against evil spirits is by means of breathing and swordsmanship.

Pranayama develops their body's potential and brings them closer to the limits of their physical functions.

The sword technique allows them to gain the means to defeat even the demons with blood demon skills.

These two are the core of the members of the Demon Slayer.

Therefore, only by completing the cultivation of breathing and swordsmanship, and then passing the selection of the Ghost Slayer Team, can one become a qualified member of the Ghost Slayer Team.

And the teacher who teaches novice breathing and swordsmanship is called a cultivator in the ghost killing team.

These people are all veteran members of the Demon Slayer Team, and they are working hard in various places to cultivate the seeds of new life.

And the scale Takizuo who lived in the Narrow Foggy Mountains that Tomioka Yoshiyoshi pointed out before was the former water pillar who had cultivated Tomioka Yoshiyoshi.

It is also where Micah prepares to learn breathing and swordsmanship.

"That's all you need."

Carrying the food and luggage prepared with Tanjiro Kamado on his back, looking at Tanjiro, who was also carrying a box but containing his sister, Micah asked gently, "Do you want to see it again?" ”

Tanjiro Kamado shook his head.

"I've watched it many times in the past few days, and now what I need to do is find a way for You Bean to return to being a human being, and then raise her."

In response, Tanjiro Kamado's eyes became more and more determined.

"The next time I come back, it must be me and You Douzi walking back in the sun."

"You're going to make it."

Infected by Tanjiro's will, Micah said seriously.
