I have a hero simulator

Love Pillar has an expression as if he is about to cry, giving people a feeling of pity.

A triumphant smile appeared on Shinobu Kocho's lips. She seemed to want to see Shen Yuan's embarrassed expression, but she was soon disappointed.

"I didn't expect you to be so strong. I just happen to be planning to recruit a few teammates to fight against the Demon King. So, Love Pillar, I invite you to join my team, are you willing?"

However, Shen Yuan did not play by the rules. He took the initiative and invited the Love Pillar, Mitsuri Kanroji, to join.

"I do. As long as you don't mind, I'm willing to do anything!"

Although Love Pillar, Mitsuri Kanroji, didn't know what was going on, she nodded with extraordinary happiness, which stunned Shinobu Kocho.

"No, you..."

Butterfly Shinobu became anxious.

She quickly stopped Shen Yuan and asked, "Are you serious?"

"of course."

Shen Yuan said, "My determination to hunt ghosts is unwavering. I hold this sword to fulfill this responsibility."

"I'm not talking about that. I'm saying, are you really going to take Mitsuri Kanroji away?"

"You introduced her to me, so why should I refuse? When fighting against the Ghost King, one more person means more strength."

Shen Yuan didn't mention anything else and turned a deaf ear to Shinobu Kocho's implied meaning.

At this time.

Just act stupid.

Chapter 14: Demon Slayer Corps Headquarters, All Pillars Gather!

"Okay, okay! But you have to be careful. The Snake Pillar might get jealous of you because you stole his crush."

"Eh? Why is Xiaobanei jealous of Shen Jun?"

Love Pillar came closer and looked curiously at what Shinobu Kocho was whispering to Shen Yuan.

"Nothing." Kocho Shinobu sighed, showing a helpless smile and said: "Come on, I wish you success, I am really impressed!"

Seeing Shen Yuan solve the problem of Lianzhu so easily.

Shinobu Kocho became depressed instead.

I feel a little sad, as if I have suffered a great loss.

But there is no way.

Now that things have come to this, I can only go on with it.

then.

The three will then head to the Demon Slayer Corps headquarters.

The Demon Slayer Corps headquarters is located on another hill near the Swordsmith Village.

......

Upon arriving at the Swordsmith Village, you saw the Love Pillar, and her reaction surprised you. After all, Kocho Shinobu's subtle actions had fostered a bond between you and the Love Pillar. You didn't refuse, inviting her to join your team, giving you two companions.

The Love Pillar uses the Breath of Love, a derivative of the Breath of Flame. Her muscle density is eight times that of an average person, making her stronger than many men. She has also awakened her markings, and with her specially crafted soft blade, she can simultaneously attack and defend. You've made her a warrior in the team, responsible for frontline protection.

[The stage for the final battle is about to begin...]

......

Because the Pillars had already prepared for a decisive battle with the Demon King.

So from the moment I joined the Demon Slayer Corps.

None of them thought they could survive to the end.

Everyone, including the lord, just wants to kill as many ghosts as possible before they die, either for revenge or for protection.

This is true even for the three Butterfly Sisters, including Love Pillar.

None of them thought that they could live to see the final moment.

Therefore, in the face of hundreds of years of deadly feud between ghosts and humans, love itself is a trivial thing, but at this moment it seems extremely precious.

......

A few hours later.

Shen Yuan and his group looked up ahead - the Demon Slayer Corps headquarters.

On another hilltop from the swordsmith village, wisteria flowers bloom all over the mountain stream. The Demon Slayer Corps headquarters is located here, and the two are not far apart.

even so.

Without the Demon Slayer Corps' post-processing unit "Kage" and the exclusive crows leading the way, ordinary people would not be able to find such a place.

In this ancient organization with hundreds of members, which is not officially recognized.

The members of the Demon Slayer Corps are divided into ten classes, with one captain and nine pillar-level cadres.

The team members are all issued team uniforms and Sunwheel Swords, and communicate through talking crows to convey the mission of defeating demons.

among them.

The leader of the Demon Slayer Corps, the head of the group, is the Ubuyashiki family.

The "Pillars" are the cornerstones that support the Demon Slayer Corps. They are the nine strongest swordsmen who are powerful and possess considerable power.

now.

Shen Yuan, who was known as "the strongest demon hunter in history after Kuniyoshi Ichi", naturally became the target of reception by the pillars and leaders of the Demon Slayer Corps.

He is compared to being as strong as Yoriichi Tsugikuni.

Shen Yuan did not feel disgusted or averse.

Because Yoriichi Tsugakuni should be considered the strongest fighter in the Demon Slayer world.

He was a powerful man born in the Warring States Period. He was the founder of breathing techniques and possessed the most powerful breathing technique in history, the Breathing of the Sun.

But compared to Sun Breathing, Yoriichi Tsugakuni himself is the strongest swordsman in the series.

He once swung his sword and chopped Muzan Kibutsuji into more than 1,500 pieces of flesh, scaring the Demon King so much that he fled in a panic. To this day, he can't help but tremble when he hears the name of Yoriichi Tsugakuni.

but.

Shen Yuan believes that the power of the Demon Sealing Sword Soul is even stronger than Tsugumi Yoriichi's breathing method.

This is why he was determined not to learn the breathing method, because the power of the Demon-Sealing Sword Soul, plus the patterns and the transparent world were enough.

"Coming."

Shinobu Kocho looked at the clear and cold mountain stream in front of her, the lush bushes and vines climbing up the bamboo house, and the mountain stream was surrounded and covered by hidden mechanisms. Neither humans nor ghosts could easily break in.

It is in such a deserted mountain that a paradise is hidden.

The residence of the Demon Slayer Corps leader.

"Next, let me lead the way."

As the 'Insect Pillar', Shinobu Kocho finally played her role - that of a guide.

Because the leader of the Demon Slayer Corps is equivalent to the benefactor who adopted the Butterfly Sisters and is also the big boss who provides them with food, clothing, shelter and transportation. If Shen Yuan wants to poach the other party's two generals, he must inform them.

"Mi Li, go report to the Lord first. Shen Yuan, come with me. My sister and the other Pillars have been waiting for a long time."

Shinobu Kocho curled her lips slightly and pushed Love Pillar away.

"it is good."

Shen Yuan caught a glimpse of Shinobu Kocho's smile from the corner of his eye, and the curve of her lips revealed her inner thoughts.

Maybe he wanted to give himself a warning.

This girl never seems to give up and is always trying to find ways to trick me, but as long as she doesn't go too far, I'll just let her be.

"follow me."

The last short distance was led by Shinobu Kocho herself.

but--

They were intercepted on the way.

Deep in the lush forest, the outline of the bamboo house of the Demon Slayer Corps leader can be vaguely seen. At the same time, several powerful auras are lingering in it, and the pillars have gathered in one place.

But before that.

"stop!"

A man with golden-green eyes appeared on a tree not far in front of Shen Yuan. His gaze was sharp, his body was covered with stripes, and a white snake was wrapped around his neck.

"Shinobu, who is he?"

The snake pillar jumped down from a high altitude, rolled half a circle in the air lightly, and landed steadily on the ground.

"He?"

Shinobu Kocho leaned against the tree nearby, holding the Nichirin Sword on her shoulders, looking like she was watching a show: "Your rival in love, or rather, he is Mitsuri's lover."

The girl hid behind a tree, covering her mouth and laughing.

Shen Yuan glanced at her and thought that the Kocho Shinobu in the original novel didn't have so many bad intentions. Why was she only thinking about creating assists for herself... No, that would be troublesome.

"Varied.....!?"

The black-haired, black-eyed man widened his eyes and looked at the mysterious young man with two swords hanging on his waist with hostility. His mouth, wrapped in a scarf, was tightened, veins appeared on his forehead, and his eyes were narrowed dangerously.

"Is that so? Love Pillar likes men who are stronger than her, let's see if you have what it takes!!"

The Snake Pillar had no intention of giving Shen Yuan a chance to explain. It seemed as if it had disappeared, and attacked with a certain murderous aura.

"Ugh."

Shen Yuan sighed and then drew his sword.

He could sense that the other pillars were watching a show, and many of them were acquaintances of Shen Yuan, such as the Rock Pillar.

But that guy was also very curious about how powerful he was, and seemed to have tacitly agreed to let the Snake Pillar be the big enemy and let him challenge him.

"Sharp...Gust!"

With one sword, the air in front was torn apart.

Shen Yuan's attack speed was so fast that even the Snake Pillar was caught off guard.

"Snake Breath, Second Form, Narrow Head Fangs!"

The Snake Pillar retreated without fighting, choosing to go around and swing the Sun Wheel Sword at the back of Shen Yuan's neck. His moves were extremely fierce, but there was no obvious killing intent, but more hostility and temptation with personal grudges.

"Chong-"

The sudden attack knocked the Snake Pillar's weapon away. What was shocking was that Shen Yuan's figure remained in place without moving. A faint afterimage swung a sharp blade, ignoring the Snake Pillar's Sun Wheel Sword and knocked him to the ground.

The purple curved snake-shaped double-edged blade fell to the ground. The Snake Pillar was about to take a step forward, but found that his neck was cold.

"If you were a ghost, you'd be dead."

The scarlet devil's blade landed on the scarf and neck of the Snake Pillar. Shen Yuan's "spirit" spoke coldly, then turned into a series of afterimages and disappeared, returning to his original body with his eyes closed.

When his soul left his body and returned to it, Shen Yuan acted as if he had not made any move at all. He did not even look at the snake pillar kneeling on the ground with trembling eyes, and walked towards the bamboo house in front.

At this moment, the Snake Pillar was in a state of great fear and shock.

His spirit seemed nearly wiped out.

And Shen Yuan's words also made him realize the gap between the two sides.

Although he didn't want to admit it, the person in front of him was indeed the "strongest demon hunter in history", no less than Yoriichi Tsugikuni.

"Tsk tsk——"

Shinobu Kocho looked at the dejected Snake Pillar and shook her head: "Don't be too sad, you won't be the only one crying later...someone else will be in trouble too."
