Demon Slayer: Can I add points to my Breathing Technique?

"I won't disturb you any longer. Please enjoy yourselves."

Kojiro, who was resting against the corner of the wall, blinked and was about to speak when he said, "Can you take me with you..."

The last time I was injured too badly, I missed that late-night snack.

Now that I can still walk around, I should be able to have a decent meal, right?

He was interrupted by a light kick from Dojima before he could finish speaking.

Kojiro looked up and saw that the Rank D swordsman was looking at him like he was an idiot.

Turning back, Shizi and Xiaxi were already walking side by side out of the factory, quietly discussing how fresh and tender the meat was and how special the dipping sauce was.

The atmosphere is so harmonious.

Kojiro watched the two figures as they walked away, thinking to himself.

In the end, he just scratched his head and smiled helplessly and a little enviously.

Senior Jiu Che is quite a popular person.

He immediately stood up and walked towards the crowd with Dojima.

Let's help carry the stretchers for those who are hiding.

Chapter 59 Gather your courage, persimmon!

For Xia Xi, this might just be a routine support mission.

The ghost's name and the trivial details of the mission were quickly forgotten by him.

The only thing I vaguely remember is that evil spirit's blood demon magic.

The next day, Xia Xi and Shi Zi sat in the barbecue restaurant, arguing about whether the vegetables or the meat should go into the grill first.

Inside the Demon Slayer Corps, this vast and intricate organization.

However, this rescue operation at the Yokohama factory caused ripples far deeper than Xia Xi had imagined.

Deep in the mountains of Honshu.

Kazami Kōki was holding the letter brought by Kasugai-ya, reading the battle report word by word.

[Using hand-to-hand combat skills to directly suppress the evil spirits]

Rescue of Six Missing Swordsmen

After the battle, prioritize treating all civilians and the wounded.

……

Every word made the serious old swordsman's lips curl into an uncontrollable upward curve.

My fingers tapped unconsciously on the table.

A feeling of relief and pride quietly welled up inside me.

Has this child grown up to this extent?

Moreover, they also take the initiative to help and treat others... It seems that they are no longer just indulging in hatred.

It's a good thing.

Thinking of the letter that Igarashi Yuzome recently sent.

It undoubtedly reflects an acknowledgment of the talent and character of his junior brother, Jiu Che.

Kazami laughed even more happily.

Not far away, seeing the old swordsman's expression, a boy of about six years old stopped swinging his sword and couldn't help but come over and ask, "Master, whose letter is this?"

"It's about your senior brother."

"Eh? Senior Brother Jiu Che? It's been so long since I've heard from him."

The boy curiously peeked over to look at the letter, but the old man chuckled and sent him back to continue his meditation practice.

"Your senior brother has improved a lot since then."

"Practice hard, don't fall too far behind your two senior brothers, Kuang Jin."

"Yes, Master!"

The boy smiled sheepishly, channeling his power into the wooden sword, and continued practicing each move.

As he swung his sword, a gentle breeze gradually rose in the training field.

Saagiri Mountain.

After hearing the message that his lord had specially sent via a kasugata crow, Urokodaki Sakonji couldn't help but ponder.

"Be ruthless to the enemy, but compassionate to others."

"Whether it's swordsmanship or medical skills, this child has already reached a high level."

He spoke slowly, revealing a hint of appreciation.

Recalling the days when Xia Xi trained here, the old man wearing the Tengu mask couldn't help but nod.

"Kazemi's judgment was indeed correct."

Sabito, standing nearby, said earnestly, "Senior Xia Xi is already very strong, so it's only natural that he could slay that kind of evil spirit."

Although Yi Yong didn't say anything, he silently missed the meals when Xia Xi was still around.

It's been five months since my senior left, and I miss him.

……

“Hey Stone, you’ve heard about that kid, haven’t you?”

The one-eyed female swordsman drank her wine and pushed the glass toward the middle-aged man opposite her.

The other person simply shook their head, showing no intention of drinking with her.

The female swordsman didn't mind and continued drinking alone.

"At this rate, that kid Xia Xi might become a pillar very soon."

The middle-aged man replied calmly, "As long as he is strong enough and does not stray from his original intention, he will naturally become a pillar."

The female swordswoman rested her chin on her hand, her expression playful.

"Never mind that, I heard he used his fists instead of sword techniques to practice the Breath of Thunder."

"You didn't learn this from you, did you, Stone?"

"After the hammer and the meteor hammer, is another one using fists?"

"You're misleading the youth!"

The middle-aged man shook his head in response to his friend's teasing.

“I didn’t teach him any sword techniques, and besides, as long as he could slay demons.”

I wouldn't care what weapon he uses.

He glanced at the one-eyed female swordsman in front of him: "As for you, you seem to care a lot about him not using a Nichirin Blade when he used Raihou, Nikaido."

Nikaido Mei: (#-面-)

She smirked and said irritably, "You stinking cripple!"

Matsuyama Daimon wasn't annoyed; he simply nodded and said, "Likewise, blind lady."

Mei Nikaido: ...

You bastard, are you trying to provoke me?!

In a sun-drenched courtyard somewhere in Kyoto.

Despite showing signs of weakening, Kagaya Ubuyashiki wore a smile warmer than the sun.

He looked at the liaison officer of the hidden force kneeling in front of him.

"In this light, Mr. Jiuche has indeed proven his ability and character."

"In his report, Yi Ma repeatedly emphasized that Jiu Che not only has the ability to fight, but also the potential to lead and the kindness to cherish his comrades."

"According to convention, it's time to promote him to another rank."

A member of the Hidden Clan asked curiously, "My lord, are you going to promote Lord Jiu Che to the [Self] level so soon?"

It should be noted that not long ago, this swordsman was promoted three levels to the [Geng] level.

How long has it been?

"According to convention, it is appropriate to be promoted from Geng level to Ji level. However... I think it is possible to go a little further."

Kagaya Ubuyashiki smiled, his voice gentle yet firm.

"Promote him directly to [E] rank. His recent contributions and potential deserve this reward."

The liaison officer of the stealth unit was clearly taken aback for a moment, then immediately lowered his head.

"Yes, my lord!"

Two consecutive promotions that were above the usual requirements...

Our lord truly values ​​this Lord Jiuche.

In several corners of the Far East, Xia Xi's mission has stirred up ripples.

But all these undercurrents, evaluations, surprises, and expectations were now shut out by the aroma wafting from the barbecue restaurant.

"Ah! Xia Xi-kun! That piece of meat was grilled by me!"

"Barbecue is not such an inconvenient thing. Of course, whoever grabs it first gets to have it."

"Ugh... cunning!"

The charcoal crackled, and the meat juices sizzled.

Xia Xi dipped the perfectly cooked slice of meat in front of the persimmon into the sauce and put it in her mouth.

how to say.
