Demon Slayer: The Naruto Hashira is a pure villain!

The more people in the team, the more ghosts you need to kill.

As expected, Kaigaku, who had connections, was ostracized by the other swordsmen, and no one was willing to team up with him.

To this, Kaigaku could only say: Whatever, teaming up with these idiots only lowers my own level.

Once inside Fujikasane Mountain, Kaigaku knew he couldn't stall for time, so he immediately opened the capsule and smeared his blood on his Nichirin Blade.

I don't know where the female demon got this stuff from, but it's incredibly effective. Within minutes, two gluttons came running after smelling it.

"Luckily, I was careful and didn't do too much."

There are only two ghosts; we should be able to finish this quickly.

"Thunder Breathing - Third Form: Gathering Mosquitoes into Thunder!"

"Breathing of Thunder - Land Form: Lightning Boom!"

The clever boy Kaigaku first used crowd control before unleashing his ultimate. Before the two demons could even touch the hem of Kaigaku's clothes, they howled and went to see their great-grandmother.

Having achieved his KPI, Kaigaku didn't want to cause any more trouble and wanted to leave the examination room as soon as possible.

The time was too short, and the swordsmen who were still searching for the demons didn't even consider that Kaigaku had already killed two demons.

He started walking out as soon as the assessment began; turns out he's a cowardly good-for-nothing.

Most swordsmen on the road who encountered Kaigaku heading outwards had this thought.

"Hey, you good-for-nothing, since you don't want to complete the assessment, then hand over the cheat sheet that the master gave you, so as not to waste it."

Huh? Someone's actually courting death?

Kaigaku stopped and looked at the arrogant swordsman, scrutinizing him from head to toe before concluding:

He's definitely an idiot.

He chuckled mockingly, pulled out a vial of medicine that was still mostly empty from his pocket, and tossed it to the swordsman.

That swordsman's arrogance was even greater, truly believing that Kaigaku was a cowardly coward.

"what is this?"

"It's a good stuff. Applying it to your sword doubles its damage to demons." Kaigaku lied without batting an eye.

This guy would be better off dying on this mountain.

"Oh? Such a good thing? Then this great master will gladly accept it."

"Tell me your name. Once I pass the test and become a Pillar-level swordsman, I might be able to take care of you."

“Me?” Kaigaku pointed to himself without hesitation, “Zenitsu Agatsuma.”

"Please remember to take good care of me."

For some reason, Kaigaku didn't want this arrogant guy to die on this mountain.

What if he's a really good guy?

Kaigaku left Fujikasane Mountain without looking back amidst the laughter of the crowd.

It took less than an hour to go in and out of the mountains.

Yayoi was still chatting with Sabito, who had arrived later.

"Speaking of which, why did you, lazybones, decide to come here?" Sabito was quite surprised, because Yayoi, when not on a mission, would rather stay at home 24 hours a day.

“I’ve come to fetch my servant.” Yayoi laughed heartily, completely ignoring Sabito’s teasing.

"A servant born into the household?" Qian Tu muttered the words in circles, not quite understanding what they meant.

"Hey, someone's already out?"

Sabito, facing the mountain pass, and Yayoi spotted Kaigaku returning and greeted him and Kasugai, the "proctor" who came out with Kaigaku.

"Come here, over here."

"came back?"

Hearing Yayoi's familiar tone, Sabito looked at Yayoi and then at Kaigaku, "This is the servant you mentioned, Yayoi?"

"OK."

"Household servant" Kaigaku: I really want to cover my ears. Can you two talk like this in a quieter place?

Kasugai reported Kaigetsu's achievements to Sabito, who listened with amazement, "This boy is amazing! He killed two demons in a single encounter."

The hidden record beside him contained Kaigaku's information. He then selected a forging stone, and the proctor, Kasugai, immediately took up his post, becoming Kaigaku's one-on-one customer service representative.

"Then we'll head back first," Yayoi said, quite pleased with Inu's efficiency. "Sabito, you can stay here and finish what the main character asked you to do."

Chapter 93 Good junior brother, we're in the same boat now!

Yayoi dragged Kaigaku toward the headquarters' Ubuyashiki residence. Halfway there, Kaigaku belatedly realized that this wasn't the way back to Momoyama or to Yayoi's base.

"Senior sister, where are we going?"

"Go find the lord to register your household."

"what?"

"I'll do you a favor and make you my stepson, so you can share a magnificent residence with me."

"Senior sister, only by enduring hardship can one temper one's will. I can live in the dormitory area just like the other swordsmen." Kaigaku said righteously, his abacus beads practically jumping off Yayoi's face.

Yayoi turned her head and looked at Kaigaku with a smile, "It's hard to say if you want to suffer. I might not be able to let you enjoy happiness, but as long as you want to suffer, I have plenty of suffering for you to endure."

"Don't worry, this will definitely toughen you up."

"Is there really no room for negotiation, Senior Sister?"

"Yes, of course we have," Yayoi said, giving Kaigaku hope.

"You can choose to become my stepson willingly, or you can be hung from a tree and whipped before becoming my stepson." Yayoi instilled despair in Kaigaku.

Those who understand the times are wise, and Kaigaku has always firmly believed in this.

Since the outcome cannot be changed, only a fool would go and get beaten up for nothing.

Kaigaku instantly switched to sweet talk mode: "Being able to become my senior's stepson is a blessing I've accumulated over eight lifetimes."

"Hmm, well said, reward me~"

Yayoi rummaged in her pocket for a while and finally pulled out a coin, which she tossed to Kaigaku.

Kaiyue caught the coin, his expression quite complicated.

This female demon probably thinks she's like Zenitsu, that easy-to-please little fool.

"What? You don't like it? Give it back if you don't like it."

"No, I don't like it." Kaigaku stuffed the coin, worth two candies, into his haori pocket.

It's better than having nothing at all.

"Alright, wait here for me. You can't get into this courtyard."

"Oh."

Kaigaku stood obediently by the wall, waiting for Yayoi.

It should take some time to discuss the matter of taking a son with the Demon Slayer Corps leader, right?

He pulled the coin out of his pocket and tossed it up and down. Before Kaigaku could even get bored, Yayoi walked out of the courtyard.

Hmm? Is our lord not here?

How come you came out so quickly?

"Alright, it's all settled. Come back with me."

Such high efficiency! No wonder he's the lord of the Demon Slayer Corps.

Kaigaku was curious about what kind of monster the person in the courtyard was.

Kagaya would be quite helpless if he knew that Kaigaku had misunderstood him like this.

He was calmly handling matters large and small in his study, arranging tasks and listening to the raven relaying intelligence from various places time and time again.

The door was suddenly pulled open without warning, startling Kagaya. Yayoi poked her head into the room and yelled a greeting to Kagaya, which startled him twice.

"My lord, I'd like to take in a stepson. Just letting you know."

It's hard to say whether it's a request or a notification.

Yaozai only paused for a second before his face returned to its usual gentle smile.

"Okay, Yayoi, next time you need to send Matsuko to tell me about something like this, there's no need for you to make a special trip."

"Row."

Without exchanging more than three sentences, Yayoi slammed the door shut, turned and left, leaving Kagaya alone in the study, bewildered.

"Well... that's good, at least Yayoi knows to come and tell me about it."

Yaozai comforted himself in this way.

Yayoi's residence.

"Alright, you two get to know each other first." Yayoi pulled Inosuke, who was sunbathing with his butt sticking out, down from the roof and threw him in front of Kaigaku.

"Huh?" Having been inexplicably and forcibly awakened, Inosuke looked the fierce-looking guy up and down with great displeasure.

"Is he a little brother I picked up?"

"Hehe, no~" Yayoi raised her index finger and waved it at Inosuke.

"Ok??"

Kaigaku glanced at Yayoi, then at the pig-headed man he had met once or twice, and settled his position in the courtyard.

Yes, taller than this pig-headed man.

"To put it in terms you can understand, it means he's your boss, do you understand?"

"Why should I?" Inosuke shouted, his face full of indignation.

"Alright, I'm going to rest for a bit. Kaigaku, you handle this yourself."
