Crossover Anime: Starting from Jobless Reincarnation

Kanroji Mitsuri hesitated for a moment, thought for a moment, and said to Roya, "Then, shall we give it a try?"

She was actually quite curious about how strong the young man in front of her was. After all, they were kindred spirits, and if he was stronger than her, then it seemed like he would be a pretty good husband.

Thinking of this, Kanroji Mitsuri's cheeks flushed again, and sweat beaded on her face once more.

Luo Ya was somewhat speechless; he always felt that this little girl in front of him was so easily embarrassed.

Luo Ya pointed to the table next to him and said to Kanroji Mitsuri, "How about we go over there and arm wrestle?"

Kanroji Mitsuri nodded in agreement.

The two sat down at the table next to them. Just then, the middle-aged man came back from outside. In fact, he had no intention of buying noodles at all. He had been peeking from outside and, seeing that the two were getting along well, decided to come in and see what was going on.

It would have been better if I hadn't looked, because what I saw was shocking: these two guys were actually planning to arm wrestle?

The middle-aged man wanted to tell Kanroji Mitsuri one thing: He won the game, but lost in life.

Kanroji Mitsuri saw the middle-aged man excitedly calling out to him, "Uncle, will you be my referee?"

The middle-aged man sighed, ultimately saying nothing, and walked up, nodding somewhat helplessly.

The two began to join their right hands together. When they shook hands, Kanroji Mitsuri was slightly taken aback. The other person's hand was unexpectedly soft.

These hands, which seemed to have been indoors for a long time and had never done any farm work, gave Kanroji Mitsuri the illusion that the other person might really be all show and no substance.

At the same time, he secretly considered whether he should hold back a little, lest he accidentally cripple the other person's hand.

The middle-aged man hesitated, looking at Luo Ya's thin arms and legs, unsure whether he should call "start".

Luo Ya adjusted his posture, feeling that it was about time, and nodded to the middle-aged man.

The middle-aged man gritted his teeth, raised his hand, and shouted, "Begin!"

The two suddenly exerted force, and Luo Ya's muscles bulged. In addition to the strength of the hand and wrist muscles, arm wrestling also involves the biceps, forearm flexor muscles, triceps, and brachioradialis muscles.

It tested almost all the strength of his arm. Luo Ya was very strong, but it was still uncertain whether he could beat his opponent now.

At first, Kanroji Mitsuri was cautiously testing the waters, afraid that she might accidentally break the other person's arm. However, to her surprise, the other person was surprisingly strong. Kanroji Mitsuri tried to increase her strength, but the other person's wrist did not budge.

As a result, Kanroji Mitsuri became even bolder. Then, suddenly, Roya felt a tremendous force strike him. Roya was slightly stunned, and his right hand was almost destroyed by this explosive force.

Fortunately, he reacted at the most critical moment and stopped in time, thus avoiding being instantly killed by the opponent.

Both of them were very strong, and Roya was also struggling to withstand the opponent's strength. In terms of strength alone, Roya's original physical attributes would definitely have been able to overpower his opponent. However, the problem was that Roya's own attributes had been reduced to only about 10%. This was only because Roya secretly used the enhancement of dragon blood. Otherwise, he might have been instantly killed by his opponent.

After a brief stalemate, Luo Ya tried to increase his strength, hoping to regain control of the factory he had lost.

Noticing Roya's resistance, Kanroji Mitsuri revealed an extremely pleased expression. Her large, light green eyes narrowed, and she said in a rather teasing tone, "How about we leave it at that? I didn't expect Roya-kun to be so strong. However, I haven't even used half my strength yet, you know?"

Luo Ya fell silent. He really wanted to tell this somewhat straightforward and silly girl that there was absolutely no need for her to say that last sentence. Wasn't she just provoking people?

Luo Ya forced a smile and said, "I didn't use all my strength either. Although I probably still can't beat you in the end, you should at least give us boys some face."

The middle-aged man looked shocked. When he saw that Kanroji Mitsuri hadn't killed Roya instantly at first, he thought that Kanroji Mitsuri had finally figured it out and could control her strength well even without his reminder. But upon closer inspection, he noticed that Kanroji Mitsuri's muscles were tense and her fair skin showed bulging veins. This was not the appearance of holding back, and even if she had, it was definitely not as bad as he had imagined.

If you imagine it for a moment, you'll discover a somewhat terrifying fact: the boy in front of you is surprisingly strong, a monster who could fight the woman in front of you to a standstill.

The middle-aged man seemed somewhat at a loss.

Roya took a deep breath, staring intently at Kanroji Mitsuri. A faint pressure began to emanate from Roya's body, his originally crimson-gold eyes became dazzling, and his heart pounded violently.

Then, Duang~

An irresistible force struck, causing Luo Ya's newly gathered momentum to shrink. Luo Ya looked at Kanroji Mitsuri with a bewildered expression, only to see Kanroji Mitsuri giving him a sweet smile, looking embarrassed.

The force was so sudden, and it was more than twice as strong as before, almost instantly killing Roya.

Luo Ya gently raised his hand and saw that the back of his hand was already red and swollen. Luo Ya was speechless.

The middle-aged man breathed a sigh of relief and called out to his son-in-law inside the house, "Quickly get the noodles out."

Roya sighed, picked up his chopsticks, and finished off the remaining noodles one by one. Kanroji Mitsuri remained sitting opposite Roya, eating sakura mochi while giving Roya a bright smile.

Of course, Kanroji Mitsuri doesn't just eat sakura mochi. She would occasionally try to ask Roya about his age and other things, and Roya would slowly say a few words to her.

In the distance, inside a room, a fair-skinned man with mild facial disfigurement and blindness listened to the raven's report while coughing intermittently. He suddenly stood up and muttered, "Roya? He killed four demons without breathing? He's a born demon hunter. We must recruit him, cough cough cough."

A woman with a full head of silver hair, a dignified and beautiful appearance, and an elegant demeanor was wiping the sweat from the other person's forehead with a towel.

The man's name was Ubuyashiki Kagaya, the master served by the pillar. He was handsome when he was young, but his face was gradually disfigured as his illness worsened.

At the same time, due to his illness, he was born weak and now he has the feeling of being on his last legs. Even though he is still very young, he will cough a few times every few words.

The extremely beautiful woman next to him is Kagaya Ubuyashiki's wife, named Amane Ubuyashiki. She has the blood of a priestess and has been taking care of Kagaya Ubuyashiki and accompanying him through this difficult life.

Kagaya Ubuyashiki said to Amane Ubuyashiki, "Amane, you must, cough cough, bring him into the Demon Slayer Corps. We haven't had a decent member for a long time, cough cough."

Momoyama, a short, elderly man, narrowed his eyes slightly upon hearing the report. Then, as if remembering something, he said to the team member, "You hunted down four demons with a fruit knife? A nobleman's son who ran away from home? Are you sure the information is correct?"

This is a short, white-haired old man with a scar on his face and a prosthetic leg on his right leg.

His name is Kuwashima Jigoro, a former Demon Slayer Corps Sound Pillar who mastered Thunder Breathing. After losing a leg while hunting demons at the age of 35, he lived in seclusion in Momoyama, teaching younger generations and training many disciples who mastered Thunder Breathing.

This team member was the Demon Slayer Corps member who investigated the scene, and he was a disciple taught by Kuwajima Jigoro. Recently, Kuwajima Jigoro had been anxious about his successor. Although he had taken in two disciples, both of whom were quite talented, his eldest disciple had always been somewhat wicked, which was a headache for him. His youngest disciple, Agatsuma Zenitsu, was talented and kind-hearted, but the problem was that he was too weak-willed, which had always been a headache for Kuwajima Jigoro.

However, if the position of the Sound Pillar were given to the eldest disciple Kaigaku, Kuwashima Jigoro always felt that something bad would happen. Now, he hoped to find that guy named Roa and see what his potential was.

He turned to the Demon Slayer Corps member below and said, "You should have seen him before, right?"

The Demon Slayer Corps member shook his head, but said, "Although I haven't seen him, I have one of his servants who can recognize him as soon as we meet. The servant said that his young master is very handsome and has very distinctive features, with dazzling blond hair and golden eyes."

Kuwajima Jigoro nodded, looking knowing. After thinking for a moment, he said to him, "Then, have that servant come with me. I'm going to see that young master from a noble family."

After saying that, he picked up his cane and prepared to leave. As he was leaving, he remembered something and said to the person beside him, "Tell Zenitsu and Kaigaku that I have something to do and I have to leave for a while."

After saying that, he picked up his cane and hurriedly set off into the distance.

Chapter 112 Going Up the Mountain to Slay Ghosts

Unaware of the series of interesting events unfolding in the distance, after he finished his meal, Kanroji Mitsuri mustered her courage and suddenly asked Roya, "Um, Mr. Roya, do you... do you have some free time?"

Luo Ya looked at Kanroji Mitsuri with slight surprise, wondering why she had such a strong reaction.

Having finally mustered up her courage, Mitsuri Kanroji blushed and said loudly to Roya, "I, I want to invite you to my house, cough, stay for a while, um, didn't you say you've been homeless lately?"

Luo Ya smiled, touched his nose, and said to Kanroji Mitsuri, "No need, no need. I still have some tasks to attend to, so I won't bother you any longer."

Kanroji Mitsuri looked dejected, then, as if remembering something, asked curiously, "The mission?"

Luo Ya nodded, thought for a moment, and said to Kanroji Mitsuri, "Miss Kanroji Mitsuri, do you know that there is a kind of creature lurking in the darkness of this world? They were human in life, but they have lost their humanity. They are a group of beasts wearing human skin. They hide in dark and damp places during the day and come out to eat people at night."

Kanroji Mitsuri looked shocked, then a frightened expression crossed her face as she asked seriously, "Which group of people? Cannibals?"

Luo Ya nodded, pointed to himself and said, "My father and my mother may have both been killed. The other party is a very dangerous monster. I can't bear to see any more victims like me."

Upon hearing this, Kanroji Mitsuri gave Roya a sympathetic look. Her voice softened as she said to Roya, "Well, it's alright. Although I don't know what to say, I imagine that a man as outstanding as you would definitely be able to stand up and protect more people."

Luo Ya smiled, stood up and looked at the blue sky and white clouds outside. He smiled at Kanroji Mitsuri and said, "The future is long, Kanroji Mitsuri. You are a very special person. I believe that with your talent, you will not stay here forever. If you are interested, you can go to the Demon Slayer Corps. I may join there in the future. We will meet there then."

Kanroji Mitsuri was taken aback. She seemed to have heard the name Demon Slayer Corps somewhere before. She nodded, smiled, stood up, and bowed deeply to Roya, saying, "I will catch up with Mr. Roya. So, please live. Cough, if I join the Demon Slayer Corps, could you please keep me company for a while, Mr. Roya?"

After finishing her sentence, Kanroji Mitsuri broke out in a sweat again. Realizing that she might have said something strange, she quickly explained, "I didn't mean anything by it. I just wanted to spend more time with you. Um, that's all."

Luo Ya's lips twitched. This guy was getting weirder and weirder. What did he mean by "stay a while longer"?

He could see what the little girl was thinking, but time was short and the task was heavy, so they could deal with the future later.

Luo Ya sighed helplessly, said nothing more, and stood up to take his leave, saying, "Well then, it's time for me to set off. Good luck, Ms. Kanroji Mitsuri."

He pulled out some currency from his pocket, which resembled copper coins used in ancient China. Luo Ya, unsure of the exact amount, asked the middle-aged man, "Boss, approximately how much?"

The middle-aged man smiled and said to Luo Ya, "I'll just take 100 silver dollars from you."

Luo Ya nodded, took out 10 copper coins worth 10 from his bag, handed them to the middle-aged man, and then smiled and said goodbye.

After parting, the middle-aged man looked at Kanroji Mitsuri speechlessly and said in a somewhat annoyed tone, "Really, this is not quite what we agreed on before. I finally found such a good stock for you, and you just let it slip by."

Kanroji Mitsuri shrank her neck and made a playful gesture. She explained to the middle-aged man, "I find him pleasing to the eye, and he also said that he doesn't mind if I eat more. He even said some encouraging things to me before."

The middle-aged man shook his head helplessly, not knowing what to say. But these were ultimately other people's private matters, and he couldn't say anything more.

Wanting to know what was going on, the middle-aged man smiled and asked the other person, "Kanroji Mitsuri, what would you like to eat? Will this be enough?"

While 50-plus sakura mochi would be an enormous meal for an ordinary person, for Kanroji Mitsuri it was just a piece of cake, an appetizer before the main course.

Kanroji Mitsuri stuck out her tongue, showing that she was still suppressing her desire to eat.

In fact, Kanroji Mitsuri was also afraid that if she ate too much, she would scare the other person away.

After leaving the restaurant, Roya continued walking along the street.

I didn't encounter any special people along the way. I traveled at a leisurely pace, stopping frequently to observe the local customs and culture of the country where people were living relatively well during this period.

After a long and winding journey, time passed quickly. As the afternoon sun set, Luo Ya's mission officially began.

Holding a Japanese samurai sword purchased from a legitimate blacksmith shop, he swaggered down the street with the sword held horizontally at his waist.

The ghosts in the town weren't particularly rampant; they were somewhat restrained during the day, but at night they were truly a chaotic free-for-all.

If it's a slightly remote part of the town, there's a good chance a man-eating demon is hiding there.

The number of ghosts in this world is definitely not small; even in small island nations, there are victims whose families have been eaten by ghosts.

Roya's mission is to kill demons.

With Roja's current strength, he can easily kill almost anything except Upper Moons.
