Before the system's notification sound disappeared, you beheaded the hand ghost.

——The battle is over—

"The bond with my wife Zenitsu: +615"

"Experience gained: +6913"

"Experience value from the next level: 298"

"Boots obtained: None"

Tsk, you are frowning, you have to fight monsters again to level up.

You put away the knife in dissatisfaction, and saw the young man who was chased by the hand ghost standing not far away holding the knife and looking at you in astonishment. Slowly relax your body.

"Thank you." The young man said, "My name is Tanjiro Kamado."

"Yiming Yixin." You said indifferently, with the demeanor of a master in your gestures, "You're fine... Wait, brother, why do you look familiar?"

You reach out and grab him by the collar, forcing him to bow his head.

Those familiar bulging eyes...the kind-hearted baby face...your gaze sweeps over the young man's facial features, and finally stops on his earlobe.

A few lines of hints quietly appeared under the pair of earrings with red sun on a white background worn by Kamado Tanjiro.

[sun earrings]

The ancient floral paper earrings have been specially treated to remain intact after hundreds of years.

There is a certain probability of triggering the painful memories of Ghost King Guiwu Tsuji.

It's hammered, the system is hammered!

These are indeed the earrings that your big brother Ji Guoyuan once wore!

"What... what's wrong?" Zamon Tanjiro asked cautiously, "Miss Kazushin, your complexion... seems not very good."

It's strange if it works well, you think, and ask him: "What does your family do?"

It's probably because your face is really ugly, Tanjirou's voice is a little more bewildered, "Huh? Our family sells charcoal for generations, Miss Ikshin asked this..."

Shan Yi, who was left in place by you, also came over.

He looked at you, then at Tanjiro, and said hesitantly, "Ashin, what's wrong?"

"It's okay." You said, with mixed thoughts in your mind. For a while, it was "Grass, Lao Yang, didn't you say that Tanji's descendants were killed by Goubiwu?", and for a while, it was "Mom, Japanese inheritance is too special." It’s scary, after more than 400 years, the grandparent and grandson still look exactly the same.” There are so many things you want to complain about that you can’t even say a word.

So you click on Tanjiro's panel.

【Kamado Tanjiro】

There is a scar on the left forehead.

profile 2

(Unlocked, unlocked after the bond reaches Lv.2)

Hmm... LV52?Tanjirou seems to be about the same age as Zenitsu, and to be able to rise to this level early, he probably has good talent, or he has trained hard.

By the way, what happened to the injury on this kid's forehead?Such a large scar can be regarded as disfigured after decades of storage, and it is necessary to use materials to make a special medicine for scar removal...

You make quick calculations in your mind.

Although I don't know why Tanjirou became the descendant of Water Breathing, and why Enichi's earrings got into his hands, but since he is the descendant of Tankichi——

"Boy, hang out with me." You said, loosened his collar, raised his hand to press Tanjiro's shoulder, and said seriously:

"I will protect you."

Tanjiro: "...Huh?"

"Ah?" Shanyi also made a quick sound, and it took a while to react, and suddenly raised his voice: "——Ah?!"

"Why!" He asked incredulously, "Why is Ashin so nice to a passing guy all of a sudden! Obviously I am Ashin's senior brother?!"

"I also want Ashin to protect me!!!"

you:"……"

"Hey!" Shanyi choked, "Don't look at me with that look! I'll be sad!"

His sorrow is so cheap.

Tanjiro looked at you in bewilderment.

"Sorry," he declined apologetically, "I want to pass the final selection with my own efforts... Thank you for your kindness."

He seems to regard your promise as some kind of protection for the eldest sister's whim. He is very grateful, but he doesn't take it to heart.

You nodded, and without being angry, you casually gave Shanyi who was still shouting beside you an elbow, nodded and said: "Then I wish you success in the exam, and see you after the selection is over."

With Tanjiro's current level, it is not a problem to pass the selection for the Demon Slayer Squad. You will have many opportunities to work together in the future. You don't have to rush to cover him.

"Miss Kazushin too," said Tanjirou, bowing respectfully to you, saying goodbye and leaving.

You kindly watched his back.

"...So, what's going on here?" Shanyi held his stomach and asked eagerly, "Is that Tanjirou someone Ashin knows?"

"Almost." You said vaguely, "Our ancestors had contact...but that was a long time ago."

You and your big brother have saved countless people. Tanjirou’s ancestor, Tanjirou, was one of them. When he was returning home at night, he ran into a hunting ghost and was caught by Ji Guoyuan who was passing by. Help, there is heavy dew in the mountains and forests at night, Tanji heard that you two strangers have no place to stay, so he invited you to stay at his house for a while.

As a result, on the second day after you arrived, you encountered heavy rain and landslides for several consecutive days, and you were trapped at Tanji's house for half a month.

It's embarrassing.

Fortunately, Tanji is a good person, and his wife Zhu Mizi is also very kind. You quickly get to know them, and when the weather is good, you will go to the mountains to catch pheasants for extra meals. Japanese food in the Warring States Period was generally unpalatable, but Zhu Mizi She has a commendable cooking skill and feeds you and her daughter well every day.

Chicken, carrots, salt, spices, this is the secret to a good chicken soup.

Waking up early, working hard, smiling warmly, and saying good night before going to bed, these are the daily habits of Tanji and his wife.

You like them very much.

Although Tanji and his wife are just ordinary people you and Ji Guoyuan met on the ghost hunting road, and they will probably not have any contact in the future, but you know that there is such an unknown happiness that happened in a certain corner of the world. Will feel a little bit of happiness in the same way.

It's a pity that things are impermanent.

It's a pity that mortals are short-lived.

"Even so..."

Shanyi muttered something in a low voice, but you didn't hear clearly, you shook your sleeves, and refocused on your level that was just a step away.

"Let's go." You said, "Today's small goal has not been completed, we have to hurry up."

Shanyi's thoughts suddenly stopped, and he looked at you in horror.

To your surprise, this time Shanyi didn't talk about him without confidence like before, his lips moved, and he grabbed the corner of your clothes very reluctantly and skillfully.

"Okay." He whispered, taking the initiative to follow your footsteps for the first time.

-

The seven-day assessment is coming to an end soon.

There are very few reserve swordsmen who have passed the final selection. Except for you and Zenitsu, only three people stood under the altar near the torii. Tanjiro is also among the three. Dirty, but the face is still energetic, and when I saw you, I said hello.

"Congratulations, everyone."

"It's great to be back safe and sound."

The twins who are in charge of explaining the selection rules sing together and explain to you the uniforms of the Ghost Slayer Team and the details of the ranks of the players, such as A, B, C, D, W, Ji, Geng, Xin, Rengui, which makes you have the illusion of going back to high school to learn the systematic nomenclature of organic chemistry.

The white-haired girl clapped her hands, and a few black crows flew from a distance, quacking and landing.

"From now on, the liaison crow will follow you."

You stand still, let the crow land on your shoulder, Shan Yi blankly looks at the fluffy finch ball in his hand, a small question mark appears above his head.

"...Isn't this a sparrow?"

"It suits you very well." You said.

"Really?" Shanyi immediately became happy, and said joyfully, "Ashin's crow is also very beautiful, very energetic..."

Someone interrupted him roughly.

A young man with cockscomb hair—you don’t know why people have this hairstyle in this era—stepped up and grabbed the hair of the girl in charge of the commentary, “Who cares about crows? Knife! Give me a knife! Now Just give it to me! The sword of the Demon Slayer Squad!"

Hey, this kid has such small eyes, but his tone is quite big.

You walked over silently and slapped that bastard on the forehead.

Then when he turned back angrily, he said coldly, "What are you looking at?"

Grumpy brother: "You—"

"Let go! Apologize!" You said, glanced at his panel, and added: "Otherwise I'll sue your brother!"

The author has something to say: After thinking about it, I still haven't started the front line of Warring States Fate for the time being.

If it is not updated on time, it must be me, don't be afraid (bushi

There will be an update tomorrow on the 7th
