Crossover Anime: Starting from Jobless Reincarnation

Nezuko Kamado pointed down the mountain, glanced around, and pointed to a spot, saying, "My brother used to cut down trees in that forest. He would gather the firewood he cut down and put it in a bamboo basket. He would cut down trees in the spring and summer, burn the firewood into charcoal in the fall, and then sell it at the market in the winter. Of course, the process wasn't fixed, but he could earn more money selling charcoal in the winter."

Roya nodded knowingly. Nezuko Kamado stopped on top and pointed in the direction below, saying, "Then I won't see you off. It should be in that area. If you can't find it, just come back up. My house is just up this road. I need to go back to my mother's to help her."

Roya nodded and was about to walk down when Nezuko Kamado suddenly asked, "Brother Roya, what would you like to eat for lunch?"

Roya thought for a moment and said to Nezuko Kamado, "Whatever your mother is good at cooking, then cook that. I can do it all. Oh, by the way, I have a big appetite. Do you have enough leftover food at home?"

Nezuko Kamado asked tentatively, somewhat cautiously, "Brother Roya, how much do you eat?"

Luo Ya thought for a moment and said, "I usually only eat until I'm 60% full, and I eat until I'm 70% full at noon."

Nezuko Kamado fell into deep thought, pondering silently.

There's another one: you're not allowed to say the author is padding the word count; the author is revising the outline and thinking about how to write the rest.

Chapter 125 First meeting

Nezuko expressionlessly took out silver coins from her pocket, handed three of them to Roja, and said, "Well then, Brother Roja, I'll leave it to you to go to town first. My brother will be back for lunch, so there's no need to go looking for him now."

Roya:

This time, Roya didn't say anything more. He took the three silver coins from Nezuko Kamado's hand and said, "Then, I'll use them first. Later, I'll roughly estimate based on my food intake and then exchange them for currency for your mother."

Nezuko Kamado gave a soft "hmm" and prepared to leave.

Roya thought for a moment and said to Nezuko Kamado, "Nezuko, do you want any nice clothes? Do you want me to buy you one? Look, this dress of yours is a bit too small."

Nezuko Kamado paused, glanced back at Roya, and then said, "You should worry about yourself first. Don't worry, I'll secretly spend the money you gave me and try my best to improve my mother's and the others' lives."

Roya nodded and headed straight for the market this time.

This is the road down the mountain.

Passing through that lush green forest, I followed the path straight ahead.

Luo Ya was a fast walker. Although he didn't deliberately speed up his pace, he walked for less than half an hour and left the forest.

The town is a small town. In fact, in small island nations like Japan, where there are mountains all around, most towns are clustered together.

Of course, it's not that there aren't magnificent places. For example, Yukaku is an extremely magnificent area, comparable to Japan's city that never sleeps.

This is why Luo Ya always wanted to visit You Guo's place.

Well, this is absolutely not about looking at beautiful women. He guarantees with his own integrity that he has absolutely no worldly desires.

I wandered around the market, looking east and west, but after a while, I still didn't know what to buy.

I'm afraid of buying too much meat. It's not winter now, so it can be stored for a long time. Meat will spoil if you don't finish it, and the temperature is rising. Who knows how long it will last?

The safest way was to buy rice and noodles. After looking around for a while, I finally bought a bamboo basket and stuffed everything into it until it was bulging. Then I bought a rope, tied the basket together, carried it on my back, and started heading back up the mountain.

When they returned to Nezuko Kamado's house, they found a delicious aroma wafting from inside.

A slightly mature voice came from inside the house. Roya knew who it was as soon as he heard it; it was none other than Kamado Tanjiro.

Luo Ya stepped forward and put the bamboo basket down on the ground at the doorway. He walked into the house and happened to see Kamado Tanjiro teasing a girl named Kamado Hanako. Hanako seemed to be very attached to Kamado Tanjiro. No matter where he went, she would secretly follow behind him.

When Tanjiro Kamado saw Roya, his hand, which had been teasing Hanako Kamado, paused slightly. Tanjiro looked up at Roya, stood up, and smiled, saying, "You're Roya, aren't you?"

Roya sized up the other man's clothes. He had deep red hair and red eyes, a scar on his left forehead, and he wore a sun-shaped earring that had been passed down through generations.

The sun-shaped earring made a light, crisp sound as Tanjiro Kamado stood up.

For some reason, hearing this voice gave Luo Ya a strange feeling.

But the next moment, that strange feeling vanished completely.

Tanjiro Kamado noticed that Roya didn't speak at first, but instead stared blankly at Tanjiro Kamado's earring.

He touched his earring and asked curiously, "Have you seen this earring before?"

Roya snapped out of his daze, but before he could speak, Tanjiro Kamado said to himself, "That's right. My father always wore this earring. You probably know about it from your father."

He then turned his gaze to Roya, seemingly waiting for Roya to nod.

Luo Ya was also somewhat bewildered. It seemed that the other party had actually believed what Luo Ya said. But that was fine too, as it saved them from unnecessary trouble.

But what's with this "imagination"?

Luo Ya was silent for a moment. He really wanted to say: You've already said it yourself, what else can I say?

Luo Ya could only manage a smile and nod.

Only then did Tanjiro Kamado have time to examine the boy before him.

The first impression that the young man in front of him gave Tanjiro Kamado was that he was noble.

Although the other party wasn't adorned with any expensive decorations, their air of nobility was impossible to conceal.

Moreover, just looking at his fair skin and those hands that are even more delicate than a woman's, anyone would assume he's from a wealthy family.

That extremely handsome face, with features that were almost perfect, and golden eyes that gave off a gentle feeling, made Luo Ya seem like the older brother next door.

Tanjiro Kamado sniffed lightly. Tanjiro has a unique and keen sense of smell, which allows him to distinguish human emotions by smell, as well as humans and demons.

Therefore, Tanjiro Kamado can basically judge the other party's goodwill or malice through his sense of smell.

Luo Ya came here with great goodwill. There may have been some selfish motives, but they were overshadowed by pure goodwill.

Tanjiro Kamado smiled and nodded to Roya, saying, "I was quite surprised when my sister told me that a kind person wanted to stay overnight near my house, but the moment I saw you, I knew you were a good person."

Luo Ya didn't know what to say at this point; it was the first time in his life he had been friend-zoned.

Looking into the other person's clear eyes, he felt that it was not right to deceive such an innocent boy.

Tanjiro Kamado looked behind Roya and asked, "Did you buy some ingredients?"

Roya nodded, and Kamado Tanjiro stepped forward, saying, "Then I'll take you to put the food in the kitchen."

Luo Ya nodded again, came out of the inner room, pointed to the lawn on the ground and said, "That's all. I was afraid of buying too much, so I only bought a little."

Tanjiro, who had been walking out with a smile, twitched his lips when he saw the bamboo basket on the ground.

There's no other reason than that there's just too much stuff.

A bamboo basket contained a variety of things: rice, flour, noodles, five or six pounds of pork, and some vegetables. All of these things probably weighed less than a hundred pounds, but the person carried them all the way home from the town by himself.

Tanjiro Kamado swallowed hard and said bluntly, "Brother Roya, you really are born with superhuman strength."

Tanjiro Kamado could only explain Roja's behavior by attributing it to his innate superhuman strength, since Roja didn't look particularly strong.

Roya smiled, raised his right hand, and struck a strong pose, but unfortunately, he didn't have much muscle.

Roya raised an eyebrow and asked Tanjiro Kamado, "Do you want to learn?"

Tanjiro Kamado was taken aback, looking at Roya with some confusion. He asked curiously, "This... can I still learn it?"

Luo Ya raised an eyebrow and said, "Of course you can. It's actually a breathing technique. But let's forget about the breathing technique; I'll tell you about it later. Let's get the ingredients in first. Don't just stand here like an idiot."

Tanjiro Kamado nodded subconsciously and followed Roya in sorting the items in the bamboo basket. He then explained where to put each item. Roya nodded and carried the nearly 70-pound bag of rice in one hand towards the direction Tanjiro Kamado was pointing.

Tanjiro Kamado, who had been about to come up and help, stopped in his tracks. He looked at the remaining noodles and other small items and gave a somewhat frustrated look.

Picking up the not-so-heavy items, he muttered to himself as he walked, "I never expected that such a thin boy would be stronger than me."

Hanako Kamado caught up from the side, carrying a vegetable in her hand, and ran to Tanjiro Kamado's side to comfort him, saying, "Don't be sad, big brother. In my eyes, you're really amazing!"

Tanjiro Kamado looked deeply moved and continued to say to Hanako Kamado, "My sister is the best, sob sob sob."

After everyone had finished tidying up, Kamado Aoi successfully cooked the meal.

With the addition of Roya, an outsider, and according to Roya, his appetite is actually quite astonishing, the meal was quite substantial, and the stir-fried dishes were unprecedentedly plentiful. Furthermore, Kamado Tanjiro caught a large fish from the stream, resulting in five dishes and two soups. This level of treatment is something that can only be enjoyed during the New Year.

Kamado Aoi smiled at everyone and said, "Dinner's ready."

Nezuko, who had just finished her work, came out of the kitchen. Kamado Aoi smiled at Nezuko and said, "Come and eat."

Nezuko Kamado nodded, reached for the dishcloth hanging beside her, wiped the water droplets from her hands, and walked towards the living room.

In the living room, Luo Ya sat to the side. Of course, there are some rules about dining in Japan, but Luo Ya didn't care about these rules of hierarchy and just found a place to sit down.

After wiping her hands, Nezuko Kamado looked around. Since the children weren't particularly familiar with Roya, there was an empty seat next to him. Nezuko thought for a moment and then sat down next to Roya.

Tanjiro Kamado strode over, a happy expression spreading across his face as he saw the food on the table. He said to Roya, "Brother Roya, you must eat more. My mother's cooking is incredibly delicious, I promise."

Hearing this, the children all smiled. Kamado Aoi looked a little embarrassed and pointed to the decent-looking food on the table, saying, "Roya, try it and see if it suits your taste."

Luo Ya smiled at everyone and said, "Let's all eat together, don't be shy."

Upon hearing this, the younger Kamado Shigeru didn't think much of it and immediately picked up his bowl and chopsticks, ready to start eating.

But Kamado Shigeru glared at him fiercely, and he shrank back, silently putting down the bowl he had picked up.

So busy...

Chapter 126 Breath of the Sun

Luo Ya had no choice but to take a bite of meat first.

You know what, it's actually pretty good.

The meat is delicious; after a few chews, your mouth is filled with its meaty aroma.

His cooking skills are undeniable, far surpassing those of some drunkard.
