Rengoku Kyojuro looked regretful and said to Roya, "I see. To be honest, I've been troubled by the fact that no one wants to be my 'stepson' because my training methods are too strict. By the way, do you know where that demon is? I still want to try my best to kill it."

Roya said to Rengoku Kyojuro, "I've already killed them all over the mountainside. There's not even ashes left."

Upon hearing this, Rengoku Kyojuro's eyes narrowed sharply. He looked at Roya with excitement and murmured to Roya, "You killed Lower Moon Three? No, you haven't mastered Breathing yet, have you? And you don't have a Nichirin Blade. Right, where's your weapon?"

Luo Ya casually said, "I threw it away. It got damaged in the fight."

After saying that, he prepared to leave, but at that moment, Rengoku Kyojuro grabbed Roya's shoulder, smiled, and said to Roya, "Are you really not going to become my stepson?"

Roya waved his hand, interrupting the other party. Although Roya's behavior was somewhat rude, Rengoku Kyojuro was not angry and looked at Roya with a smile.

Chapter 115 Recommendation

Roya still refused, but Rengoku Kyojuro grabbed Roya's shoulder and said, "Handsome boy, think about it again. Why don't you come with me to see the lord first? Join us first, get the Nichirin Blade, and it'll be easier to kill demons that way."

Roya fell into deep thought. You have to admit, what the other person said did make sense, and the current timeline was a bit too early; Roya couldn't pinpoint the Upper Moon's location. With that thought, Roya reluctantly nodded and said, "I can join you, but I need your introduction."

Newly joined swordsmen will naturally not be valued by the Demon Slayer Corps unless they are introduced by a swordsman of Pillar rank.

Kyojuro Rengoku nodded without hesitation and agreed immediately.

"An introduction, is that it? No problem. I'll go up the mountain to take a look later. If you really killed Lower Moon Three, I believe that with that merit, you wouldn't start as a lowly swordsman. Hmm, that would be too much of a waste of your talent. Hey, handsome young man, are you really not going to consider it?"

Roya felt a headache coming on. He smiled at Rengoku Kyojuro and said, "Young swordsman, well, if I may be so bold, your strength may not yet be at the level of my master."

Kyojuro Rengoku was taken aback by what he heard, but the other party was still not angry. Or perhaps Kyojuro Rengoku was just the kind of person who didn't care about what others said. He continued loudly, "Handsome boy, I don't agree with what you said. Although you have the strength to kill Lower Moon Three, and your future achievements will definitely be greater than mine, I think I am more than qualified to be your teacher right now."

After speaking, he straightened his back, looking confident. In fact, even the Flame Pillar had his own pride.

Roya didn't say anything; you only know the answer to this kind of thing after a fight.

After thinking it over, since he had already joined the Demon Slayer Corps to get a weapon, there was no need to run down the mountain anymore. He said to Kyojuro Rengoku, "I'll take you to find that demon. Although it has turned to ashes, you should be able to see something."

In the distance, in a dark, antique-style room in the mansion, illuminated only by dim yellow light, a tall man with black hair, pale skin, and an extraordinary appearance and demeanor was angrily slamming books from a bookshelf onto the table.

He practically roared, "Lower Moon Three can't even beat an ordinary person who can't breathe and doesn't have a Nichirin Blade? Are the Lower Moons this useless now?"

He is Muzan Kibutsuji, the progenitor of demons and the strongest demon. He can make demons even stronger with his own blood; the strength of a demon is related to the amount of blood he gives. Any demon under his command who utters his name will be subject to a "curse" that destroys them. He has the power of life and death over all demons.

He searched through Lower Moon Three's memories, his face showing surprise, and muttered, "Such a fast sword. But if that's all, can't a Lower Moon demon even handle this? It seems it's time to settle things with the Lower Moons."

After speaking, Muzan Kibutsuji fell into deep thought.

--------

Meeting the lord is not something one can do at will. Kyojuro Rengoku must first deliver the information to the Crow, and then decide whether Roa can meet the lord based on the Crow's reply.

The monstrous crow is a type of crow that has received professional training from the Demon Slayer Corps and can not only speak but also possesses a clear sense of self.

The Demon Slayer Corps specially trained these crows to serve as a means for communication, information transmission, and mission assignment among its members, thus creating a highly intelligent and convenient intelligence network.

Basically, every member of the Demon Slayer Corps receives a mystery crow when they join. The Demon Slayer Corps headquarters uses these mystery crows to assign missions to members located in various places, sending them to hunt demons.

At the same time, the Mysterious Raven would also compile all sorts of information and send it to the Demon Slayer Corps headquarters, that is, to the Demon Slayer Corps' leader, so that he could know the latest events and situations without leaving his home.

After Rengoku Kyojuro had roughly surveyed the situation on the mountain, he became even more impressed with the boy in front of him. It was almost noon, so Rengoku Kyojuro said that he could take Roya out for a good meal.

Luo Ya grinned, having accepted the invitation without hesitation, since it was the other party's word.

Kyojuro Rengoku was somewhat surprised. He had thought the boy in front of him might decline. Just as Kyojuro Rengoku was thinking about where to go to eat, Roya thought for a moment and suddenly said, "Mr. Kyojuro Rengoku, do you need a stepson?"

Kyojuro Rengoku scratched his head, smiled somewhat awkwardly, and said loudly to Roya, "Yes, the Demon Slayer Corps has been losing members lately, and there are only so many people who can fight against demons. I really hope to find a disciple who can inherit my mantle."

Luo Ya suddenly spoke up: "Well, I know someone who is very talented and has a special physique. I wonder if she can help you."

Luo Ya was referring to Kanroji Mitsuri. If Rengoku Kyojuro took a liking to her, he might as well take Kanroji Mitsuri as his disciple as well.

Kanroji Mitsuri's talent is undeniable; she possesses physical abilities eight times that of others. With just a little training, she will become an outstanding swordsman in the future.

So, Roya led Rengoku Kyojuro back. The two walked quickly and arrived at the small shop in just three hours.

During the three-hour journey, Roya kept asking Rengoku Kyojuro about the precautions for breathing techniques, and soon mastered the Flame Breathing.

Although he had mastered it, Roya found that his compatibility with the Flame Breathing technique was not high, only about 50%. He also mastered that strange power, and Roya had the illusion that his breath was long and hot.

Luo Ya also discovered that the breathing method had an unexpectedly significant positive impact on his health.

He originally thought that Demon Slayer, a dungeon that wasn't considered high-level, wouldn't offer him much of a boost.

But this idea is undoubtedly wrong. At this moment, Roya can feel that the flow of his aura is longer and faster.

With each breath of oxygen, a surge of power welled up throughout his body, flowing through his limbs and strengthening his physical form.

Although this improvement is not a doubling of the improvement, the breathing method has its unique insights.

Is this the breathing technique? It feels very mystical.

Upon arriving at the noodle shop, Roya pondered what he had just told Mitsuri Kanroji yesterday: no matter how fast she was, she wouldn't leave home for the Demon Slayer Corps so soon.

After all, as the eldest sister in her family, Kanroji Mitsuri is the one who takes responsibility for the family. Although Kanroji Mitsuri's family can be considered a well-off family and her parents take good care of her, if Kanroji Mitsuri wants to join the Demon Slayer Corps directly, she still needs to discuss it with her parents.

Even after discussions, most of the time they can't reach an agreement.

It's highly likely that Mitsuri Kanroji in the original story secretly ran away from home.

Luo Ya came here to try and see if he could catch the other party.

If Kanroji Mitsuri were here, she would definitely be eating at the restaurant.

After all, Kanroji Mitsuri really likes to eat sakura mochi, and this is the only restaurant in the area that sells sakura mochi.

The middle-aged man was delighted to see a customer enter and greeted him with a "Welcome!" But when he saw it was Roya, his expression turned slightly surprised. He looked at Roya and said, "You're back again?"

It's no wonder the middle-aged man said that. Mitsuri Kanroji's personality is somewhat similar to Kyojuro Rengoku's; they are both straightforward and tend to speak without thinking, saying whatever comes to mind.

After Roya leaves, the middle-aged man can easily find out the general situation by asking a few questions.

Knowing that Luo Ya was unlikely to appear at the noodle shop, the middle-aged man felt a little regretful. After all, such a handsome man could be a beautiful sight just by sitting in the noodle shop.

After listening to Kanroji Mitsuri explain the whole story, the middle-aged man secretly shook his head.

This silly girl, she probably has no hope. Mitsuri Kanroji's confession wasn't very obvious, but it certainly wasn't subtle either. Anyone with high emotional intelligence could figure out what was going on with just a little thought.

Is Luo Ya lacking in emotional intelligence? Such a handsome young man must have had many girls around him, but in the end, someone else beat him to it.

But seeing the other person's excited expression, the middle-aged man swallowed back what he was about to say. After thinking about it, he decided not to discourage the other person's confidence.

I thought the matter was over, but unexpectedly the other party came back.

Moreover, this time he was accompanied by a swordsman with a knife at his waist.

Luo Ya smiled at the other person and said, "Hey, uncle, we meet again."

The middle-aged man glanced at Roya with a strange expression, coughed lightly twice, and said, "Hmm, we meet again."

Luo Ya smiled and said, "Please sit down, Mr. Rengoku Kyojuro. The taste of this noodle shop is quite good. I like it very much."

Rengoku Kyojuro nodded and continued to say to Roya, "Then let me try it, I'm looking forward to it!"

The moment Rengoku Kyojuro opened his mouth, he startled the middle-aged man.

There's no other reason than that Kyojuro Rengoku's voice is too loud. Although it's full of energy, it still affects the environment inside the store to some extent.

The middle-aged man cautiously said to Rengoku Kyojuro, "Um, could you please speak a little lower?"

Kyojuro Rengoku awkwardly touched his forehead, seemingly trying to lower his voice, but still said in a loud voice, "Sorry, uncle, I'm used to talking like this."

The middle-aged man covered his face and said nothing more, then asked the two what they wanted.

Luo Ya thought for a moment and said to the middle-aged man, "The usual way. As for this gentleman, well, Mr. Rengoku Kyojuro, what would you like?"

Kyojuro Rengoku thought for a moment and asked, "Do you have beef hot pot bento boxes?"

The middle-aged man, sweating profusely, said somewhat speechlessly, "This place, cough, isn't a lunchbox shop."

Rengoku Kyojuro gave a regretful look and casually said, "Then give me one in the style of a handsome young man!"

The middle-aged man nodded and began instructing his son-in-law to do the work.

Since it was already noon, the number of people gradually increased. This restaurant had a good reputation, and it was soon packed with customers.

Roya asked curious questions about the Demon Slayer Corps, and Kyojuro Rengoku patiently explained everything to him.

Soon the middle-aged man brought out the noodles. Luo Ya glanced around and noticed that the diners around him were paying attention to him, especially the girls, whose eyes were shining and seemed to be ready to rush up and say hello at any moment.

Kyojuro Rengoku could naturally feel the gazes around him. He patted Roya on the shoulder, still seemingly trying to lower his voice, but it was still loud as he said, "You're quite popular, aren't you?"

The female diners around him blushed instinctively and looked away from Luo Ya.

Luo Ya nodded indifferently and started picking up noodles to cook.

Rengoku Kyojuro also tried it, and his eyes immediately lit up. He said incredulously, "Wow, it's surprisingly good."

The middle-aged man smiled smugly and pointed to himself, saying, "It's been passed down through generations; it's an ancestral craft."

Rengoku Kyojuro gave the middle-aged man a thumbs-up and said, "Impressive."

The middle-aged man's face was also full of smiles, thinking that this loud-voiced guy in front of him was not bad, except that he was a bit strange.

Luo Ya drank the noodles like soup and finished the whole bowl in no time. Rengoku Kyojuro did the same, even faster. The two put down their bowls at the same time, and Rengoku Kyojuro even exclaimed while eating, "Delicious!"

Even though Rengoku Kyojuro shouts this phrase with every bite, he still manages to surpass Roja.

This made Luo Ya pause for a moment, and the two of them almost simultaneously said to the middle-aged man, "Give me ten servings."

After saying that, the two of them were stunned. They looked at each other and Rengoku Kyojuro spoke first: "Handsome boy, I didn't expect you to eat so fast."
