"Mr. Ryosuke."
Tenon's voice rang out again, interrupting Ryosuke's thoughts.
"Among the current pillars, you are closest to Kagaya. He is willing to tell you many things and share many thoughts, but he has never mentioned them to me in detail."
Ryosuke: o.0?
Is that right, buddy?
Our Demon Slayer Corps doesn't have any unspoken rules!
Ryosuke hurriedly explained.
"My lord is too kind. I was only doing my duty. My lord and his wife are deeply in love, and there are some things they don't tell you, probably because they don't want you to worry."
Tianyin smiled and shook her head.
"What I mean is, Yaozai always says that you and him... are very similar."
That's like a damn thing!
Ryosuke felt inferior to him.
He doesn't have that high level of awareness or innate divinity.
As an outsider, a transmigrator with a system and a clear sense of survival pressure.
Ryosuke will die if he doesn't become stronger.
His efforts were largely driven by his fear of death and his desire to control his own destiny.
He was afraid of death; he was just an ordinary person, not a person of high moral character.
They may have selfish motives, they may complain, and they may use some extreme measures.
To put it bluntly, among this group of companions with pure beliefs and near-perfect personalities...
Ryosuke is the most inconspicuous and the most down-to-earth.
His initial intentions for saving people, training younger generations, and desperately improving his skills were not noble or lofty.
Regardless, with him around, the Demon Slayer Corps' current strength is far greater than that of the original story in the same timeline.
Konno Masachika survived, Kanae avoided certain death, the Tokito brothers had a brighter future, and Mitsuri joined the team ahead of schedule...
The butterfly's wings have already flapped, and its future trajectory is shifting.
Discuss the deeds but not the heart.
Ryosuke did everything he could, and tried his best to do it well.
He is not a hero in the traditional sense.
He's just an ordinary person who accidentally traveled through time and gained a cheat code, constantly trying to stop the tragedy from spreading.
"Madam, you flatter me."
Ryosuke closed the picture book and handed it back to Amane.
"I am who I am, Ryosuke Yasui, a lucky demon slayer, far inferior to my lord."
"All I can do is kill a few more ghosts to make things easier for myself and the people around me."
"Let this world... be a little more decent."
Tianyin took the picture album and carefully put it away.
She didn't delve any further into Ryosuke's answer and changed the subject.
"Mr. Ryosuke, if you have nothing to do recently, please visit the Butterfly Mansion."
Chapter 150 Is this white-haired hedgehog very strong?
Ryosuke raised an eyebrow, wondering what Tenon was referring to.
Lady Tianyin's eyes flickered slightly, a hint of teasing in them.
"You may not know that you've been busy with the Tokito brothers lately, but Hanahashi Kanae has been feeling uneasy lately, which is probably related to Mr. Ryosuke."
She paused, then added, "And it seems that Shinobu Kocho has quite a few grievances against you."
Ryosuke pointed at his nose, his face completely innocent.
He thought for a moment and then realized what was happening.
Could it be that you were too close to Kanae recently, almost inseparable, and now you're not used to being apart from her all of a sudden?
Even Ryosuke himself didn't realize it.
His unintentional withdrawal turned out to be a classic case of feigned indifference!
As for Shinobu Kocho, most people imagine him as a scumbag who takes advantage of others and then denies everything!
Ryosuke gasped.
In that sense, Kanae's unease and Shinobu's fury were indeed related to her.
How did Tianyin find out?
Ryosuke looked at her with great confusion.
Seeing through his question, Tianyin gracefully covered her lips with her sleeve.
"As the curse deepened, the Butterfly Sisters would often treat Yaozai's body, and they learned some things during casual conversations."
Ryosuke's lips twitched.
Gossiping is a woman's nature, regardless of age.
Even one's own mother would be on the front lines of gossip before she passed away.
Tianyin is a shrewd person.
She didn't need to inquire deliberately; a few words of guidance when the Butterfly Sisters came were enough to get them to tell her everything.
If it were Shinobu Kocho, she would probably have already given herself a thorough dressing-down in front of Amane.
After all, thanks to his intervention, Kanae successfully avoided death.
Shinobu Kocho retains her early straightforward and earnest nature, and is fiercely protective of her older sister.
Without experiencing the profound grief and subsequent repression and forbearance, her imitation of her sister resulted in a personality vastly different from that depicted in the original work.
Speaking of this, Ryosuke recalled something he had heard from Kanae.
Shinobu Kocho hates clothes that are deliberately revealing.
When the two sisters received their team uniforms after passing the final assessment, a lecherous tailor named Maeda from the logistics department deliberately made Shinobu a very ill-fitting, revealing team uniform.
The style is roughly the same as the one worn by Mitsuri in the original work.
As a result, Shinobu Kocho flew into a rage and burned the team uniform right in front of him.
“I understand, madam.”
Ryosuke rubbed his temples: "I'll go visit the Butterfly Mansion after the final assessment."
Tenon nodded: "Thank you for your trouble, Mr. Ryosuke."
The following seven days were relatively peaceful.
The final assessment result was exactly as Ryosuke had guessed.
With the Totsu brothers, these two bugs, in charge, the number of people passing this year is ridiculously high.
This naturally includes Kanzaki Aoi, who is afraid of her younger sister.
The most outrageous thing is that these two brothers mastered the full concentration of the Changzhong technique on their own during the seven-day battle at Fujikasayama!
People are more infuriating than people.
Ryosuke is tired of using the word "awesome".
For the Tokito brothers, is it true that not turning it off means it's on?
After the assessment, the routine process of allocating Kasugai crows and selecting Tamahagane to forge Nichirin swords begins.
It is worth noting that Muichiro's Kasugai Crow is the same as in the original work; it is a very sharp-tongued magnetic crow named Gin.
The crow was so fascinated by Muichiro's appearance and personality that it would always circle around him, praising him in that strange tone.
Ginko wasn't so kind to Ichiro, who had the same appearance but completely opposite personality.
The two, one human and one bird, immediately went into battle upon meeting.
"Ugly human clones, stay away from my flawless beauty!"
"Shut up, you fat bird! If you keep nagging, I'll pluck your feathers and roast you!"
"Rude! Savage! What kind of Rain Breathing is this? It has no beauty whatsoever!"
"Brother! Yinzi! Stop arguing..."
Muichiro acted as a peacemaker, reluctantly mediating the situation.
Of course, Gin would also snuggle in Muichiro's arms, letting him pet it like a cat.
Ryosuke couldn't believe that he saw a blushing and ecstatic expression on a crow's face.
Yin Zi was so happy he felt like his soul was floating out of his mouth.
This made Ryosuke wonder if Ginko was like him, but an extremely obsessed "mom fan" of Muichiro who had transmigrated.
The assessment has been passed, but it will still take some time before the knife is forged.
With nothing else to do, the two brothers went to the Butterfly Mansion with Ryosuke.
When we arrived at the Butterfly House, the training ground was bustling with activity.
The three friends, Sanemi and his brother, are practicing together.
Whether in the original story or now, Sanemi is a frequent visitor to the Butterfly Mansion.
In the original story, he often used the tactic of bleeding himself to kill demons, which required frequent medical treatment and bandaging.
Now it's because of family.
