Of course, when she met him, she wasn't alone; she was accompanied by several members of the Demon Slayer Corps, hurrying away into the distance.

Although Luo Ya was slightly surprised, he did not show any unusual expression on his face. He slightly stepped aside to make way for her.

The other person glanced at the boy briefly, his gaze lingering on him for a moment, then smiled and nodded at Roya before leaving.

Luo Ya returned home and resumed his daily routine, eating and sleeping, and practicing his swordsmanship.

At night, he would go out to hunt demons and search for Tanjiro.

And so, the days passed by.

In just one week, Roya had searched all the surrounding mountains and killed nearly ten demons, but he still couldn't find any trace of Tanjiro.

Even when you ask around in nearby villages, the villagers say they've never heard of this person.

All signs indicate that it will probably take him a while longer to find a job.

Wandering around aimlessly is bound to bring good luck, and Roya actually bumped into another Lower Moon demon.

The other party was Rui, the fifth of the twelve demon moons.

This is a little devil with a full head of white hair. He usually covers his left eye with his hair. The words "Xia Wu" are engraved in his left eye. He is not tall. In fact, he can be described as short.

When he saw the other person, Luo Ya was slightly surprised.

But after the initial surprise, they returned to calm.

Honestly, unless it's an Upper Moon demon, Roja is basically confident he can kill the opponent instantly.

The difference between the upper and lower moons is so great that their power is naturally worlds apart.

Pillar could easily kill the lower moon in an instant.

However, it takes two or even three or more Pillar-level swordsmen to deal with Upper Moon.

The higher the level of combat power, the greater the gap will naturally be.

Of course, if Roya were to encounter his opponent at this moment, the outcome would be an easy and swift defeat.

He raised his Nichirin Blade high, then brought it down, and a fine head fell to the ground.

Lei wasn't always down in the moon; he had three family members, forming a morbid ghost family.

Luo Ya had no interest in paying attention to these pitiful people; the original story had already clearly explained their backgrounds.

There are many pitiful people in this world, and the existence of ghosts has destroyed countless families.

Even a swordsman as strong as Yoriichi Tsugikuni had his wife and children tragically killed by demons.

If there is any evil in the world that must be eradicated, demons are undoubtedly one of them.

Ghosts don't just eat people; they also lose their humanity, becoming paranoid and filled with destructive desires. They consider themselves superior beings and treat others like bread.

Naturally, Roya unleashed a slash and dispatched the remaining three ghosts.

Brushing the dust off his sleeves, Roya silently mourned for the other person for a moment before continuing on his journey.

However, Muzan Kibutsuji eventually learned of the killing of Lower Moon Four, and he immediately sent a telepathic message to the nearest person, Gyokko, asking him to go and check.

Although the location of the jade pot was not far, it was not close either. By the time the jade pot arrived, Luo Ya had already disappeared.

However, Roya's actions this time completely exposed his whereabouts.

Luo Ya's discovery of his presence is naturally a very troublesome matter.

Following his usual routine, Luo Ya did not return home this time, but instead found a place to stay at random.

The Demon Slayer Corps has many outposts, and each outpost has its own resting quarters.

These houses were prepared for the Demon Slayer Corps members who were on duty that day.

Roya naturally also has the right to reside there.

Life returned to normal.

Time passed slowly like this.

Still no power, this is so frustrating.

When typing on a mobile phone, mistakes are inevitable, and I will try my best to correct them.

Chapter 122 Nezuko Kamado

When Roya found Tanjiro, it was almost a month later.

Over the course of a month, Roya's strength has been steadily recovering, now reaching approximately 20% to 25% of its previous level. If Roya were to encounter Upper Moon Four again at this point, he could at least hold out until dawn thanks to his remaining health.

That's right, they relied on their health bars to wear each other down until dawn.

Under normal circumstances, human strength is limited, whether it is mental or physical strength, there is a certain limit. But in a sense, Roya is beyond the scope of human strength. With Roya's almost inexhaustible physical strength, he can still fight passionately until dawn without any problem.

However, while that's the case, the actual situation needs to be analyzed separately.

Finding Tanjiro Kamado was purely coincidental; Roya simply asked an old man passing by at the foot of the mountain, as was his custom, and learned about him.

He was an old man, probably in his sixties or seventies, and short in stature, but with unusually well-developed limbs. Luo Ya had only asked casually if the other party knew the whereabouts of Kamado Tanjiro.

To everyone's surprise, the other party immediately became wary upon hearing this, frequently glancing at Luo Ya with strange eyes and asking Luo Ya what problem he had that he wanted to find the boy.

Luo Ya casually made up a lie, roughly saying that his father and the other party were old acquaintances, but due to a disagreement in their early years, they had not been in contact for a long time. Now that his father was getting old, he was thinking about whether he could find his old friend.

Luo Ya then added a supplementary statement, saying that his father had actually foreseen that the other party's father was likely to pass away, and that his purpose in coming here was to help the charcoal sellers as much as possible.

Luo Ya's explanation was reasonable and convincing. At the same time, Luo Ya also showed a sunny, cheerful and innocent expression, looking like a naive and romantic young man. Perhaps his smile infected the other person, in any case, the old man subconsciously believed Luo Ya.

Fortunately, the old man in front of him didn't know much about Tanjiro's family, which is why he believed Roja's nonsense.

The old man nodded knowingly, pointed to the opposite mountain peak, and smiled at Luo Ya, "That young man is over there. I really like that innocent boy with the scar on his head. He helped me a lot and brought me a lot of convenience before, which is why I reacted so strongly when I heard that a stranger was looking for him."

Luo Ya bowed slightly to the old man and said, "Thank you. I've been looking for them for a long time."

The old man subconsciously sensed something was off, but faced with Roya's harmless expression, he didn't know what to say, so he could only nod and leave.

As they walked up the mountain, they soon reached the mountainside. Luo Ya noticed that most families on the mountain preferred to build their houses at the foot of the mountain or on the mountainside like this. The houses were not very spacious bamboo huts, and various kinds of clothes were hanging outside on bamboo poles, along with some white sheets.

Luo Ya stood at the doorway and looked around curiously. He didn't see Tanjiro Kamado, but he did see a very cute child.

She was a girl with long, black hair that reached her waist, and extremely delicate features. She looked to be about eleven or twelve years old. She was wearing a pink kimono, and her forehead was styled in a bun. She looked like a very gentle girl.

Roya was slightly taken aback. He recognized the other person's identity almost instantly: Kamado Nezuko.

After all, such a distinctive girl is actually quite easy to recognize. Now that Nezuko Kamado is here, it's obvious whose family this is.

Roya smiled at Nezuko in front of him. His gentle and handsome features were naturally charming, and his effectiveness against young girls was almost doubled.

Nezuko Kamado frowned slightly, staring intently at Roja's face, then asked curiously, "Big brother, what brings you to our house?"

Nezuko Kamado only approached to inquire after noticing that the strange man in front of her didn't seem to intend to leave.

Roya asked Nezuko Kamado, "Excuse me, is this Tanjuro Kamado's house?"

Roya didn't mention Kamado Tanjiro, but rather Kamado Tanjuro, because Roya knew he didn't have much of a connection with Kamado Tanjiro, and he still intended to rely on Tanjuro to make his point.

As for whether they will be exposed, he said that having watched the anime, he knows a lot about the family's personalities.

The Kamado family was quite poor. There were six people in the family, and apart from the eldest brother, Tanjiro Kamado, who was able to earn money to support the family, the rest were just a bunch of kids.

A mother with six children—one can only imagine the family's situation.

Nezuko nodded and said to Roya, "Yes, Kamado Tanjuro is my father. May I ask what business you have with him?"

Roya began to say to Nezuko, "It's nothing, it's just that my father once received help from your father. Now that my father has passed away, his last wish was for me to take good care of Tanjuro Kamado's family."

Tanjiro Kamado looked suspicious and asked curiously, "Why haven't I heard my mother mention this before?"

Luo Ya's expression remained unchanged as he continued his fabrication: "My father and your father were once as close as brothers. Years ago, my father was saved by your father in a time of crisis. I've always held your father in a debt of gratitude. But some things happened later that caused a rift in their relationship, and it's normal that you haven't heard about it."

Seeing Nezuko's still suspicious expression, Roja could only offer a helpless smile and say, "Your family must be in dire need of help right now, right? I mean no harm; I just want to fulfill my father's last wish and follow his instructions to help you as much as possible."

After Luo Ya finished speaking, he reached into his pocket.

Thirty silver dollars were taken out of it.

Although silver dollars are not as valuable as gold coins, they are enough for an ordinary person to live on for quite some time.

Nezuko's face still showed suspicion, but her attitude had softened considerably.

After all, Roya essentially gave them money, so who would want to help someone who gave them money and then harbored hostile intentions?

Of course, even so, suspicion is unavoidable.

What Roya needs to do now is to dispel the other party's suspicions.

How is Luo Ya's acting?

This goes without saying.

Anyway, Luo Ya is good at conning people, and he can lie without batting an eye.

Roya's purpose in coming here was good; he wanted to see if he could save his family's lives from Muzan Kibutsuji.

Since Roya's intentions were good, he naturally spoke with an attitude of caring for you.

Seeing that Nezuko was showing signs of loosening her grip, Roya quickly spoke again, "If it really doesn't work, you can let me go inside and sit down first, and we can talk about it when your mother arrives."

Roya put on a sincere expression, clasped his hands together as if begging Nezuko, and explained, "I learned from my father that your father has always been in poor health. I came here because I know a little about your father's condition and wanted me to come and see him. Is your father, Kamado Tanjuro, here?"
