Demon Slayer: Muzan, will you dance too?

"It's another sunny day. Hmm, I've really been relaxing a lot lately..."

Kiyokawa Izumi, who hadn't fought with anyone in a long time, couldn't help but sigh.

Since the end of the war, I've stopped being so tense and have become quite lazy.

Some time ago, the old village chief of the swordsmith village—that somewhat unconventional old man—commissioned someone to deliver the Nichirin sword he had forged, and announced that he would no longer forge Nichirin swords from now on.

In other words, the weapon delivered was the final Nichirin Blade.

Kiyokawa Izumi was naturally flattered to receive such a gift.

I didn't want to accept this very meaningful gift.

After learning about the situation, the others unanimously advised him to accept the last Nichirin Blade.

The old man who forged this weapon also wrote a letter.

The gist of it is that this is not only the last Nichirin Blade, but also contains the gratitude of all the swordsmiths in the village, and he proudly declares that this weapon is worthy of his status as the strongest swordsman of his time.

In addition, he was invited to visit the knife-making village.

A certain little guy wants to use him as a model to create a puppet named Kiyokawa Izumi No. 1.

In response, Kiyokawa Izumi could only say, "I'll definitely do it next time."

Does that little brat really think he's got nothing better to do?

As a swordsman, although I am somewhat lax, I still maintain a certain amount of daily training.

He could not possibly give up either swordsmanship or breathing techniques.

Of course, without external pressure and internal needs, don't expect much improvement in a short period of time; maintaining the current state is already quite good.

Just as he picked up an ordinary wooden sword to practice the basics, a strange murderous intent suddenly arose—it had been strange lately, he always felt that someone was hiding in the shadows, secretly watching him.

This is not an illusion.

He was completely bewildered, having sensed the murderous intent multiple times.

The man-eating demons are gone, and I have transformed from a demon into a human.

He got along well with everyone and never offended anyone—so it was quite strange.

Who would show him such obvious malice?

Undisguised, blatant killing intent emanated from the shadows, as the cold gaze fixed intently on him.

"Good morning, Mr. Kiyokawa Izumi!"

The enthusiastic Ms. Kanroji Mitsuri waved to him from afar.

Kiyokawa Izumi nodded in response, seemingly unsurprised.

Unlike him, who was living under someone else's roof, Miss Mitsuri has been getting particularly close to Shinobu lately.

She always dragged Shinobu along to go shopping and said strange things.

Sometimes I would ask her curiously how she saw through Izumi, and sometimes I would seem quite disappointed.

As for the reason, Kiyokawa Izumi, who dislikes eavesdropping, wasn't entirely sure.

The reason I know all this is because I learned it from my conversation with Miss Mitsuri—she has been to the Butterfly Mansion quite often and has seen Kiyokawa Izumi quite a few times.

The strongest swordsman of the era is just a useless little guy who can't live independently and needs to live with his older sister, Shinobu.

Faced with such a personality as Ms. Renzhu, Kiyokawa Izumi was inevitably infected by her enthusiasm, and naturally, they ended up talking quite a bit.

What troubled him was that when he met this person, he could never find a place to look. He could only pretend to be busy and look in other directions, or look up and admire the white clouds in the sky.

So large, so white.

It was referring, of course, to the clouds drifting in the sky.

Miss Mitsuri's style of dress is indeed quite revealing, and her figure is also outstanding.

Kiyokawa Izumi certainly appreciated this.

But I can't say I had any bad intentions or other thoughts—I was just admiring this person with pure eyes.

so,

Could someone who wishes to remain anonymous please tone down their murderous aura?

Can you please stop looking like you're about to kill Kiyokawa Izumi?

He's really innocent, okay!

Not only did he do nothing, but he also kept a certain distance and his gaze towards this person was very restrained.

We can't just kill him because he said a few extra words to us, can we?

Sometimes I feel that when there are no more demons, some Pillars are unusually idle—Mr. Obanai Iguro, don't you think?

They've been keeping an eye on things lately, honestly, don't go too far!

Kiyokawa Izumi understands this feeling.

He could understand why someone might be unable to resist following a girl they liked and even showing murderous intent when they saw her being so close to another man.

Although such performance is somewhat immature.

He had no idea what tricks the two of them were playing, and Xiaobanai was also dragging her feet.

If you like someone, just confess your feelings and take action!

Why are you staring at him like that?

Perhaps it's because they didn't go through the final battle together, and didn't express their feelings at the critical moment of life and death, that they seem so shy.

Some things can be easily said when facing a life-or-death crisis.

However, in the mundane routine of daily life, due to concerns or practical reasons, it is difficult to speak up.

In the end, that cowardly guy is probably just feeling inferior—he feels that he, with his tainted bloodline, is not good enough for such an outstanding girl, which is why he hasn't dared to express his feelings.
