It should be said that he was already eyeing the other person even before the other person joined the Demon Slayer Corps.
After all, he wouldn't let go of a pretty girl with a sweet face, cheerful personality, and perfect figure.
Even when he set up "Arashiya," he didn't necessarily have the intention of hooking up with Kanroji Mitsuri. After all, if he just wanted to eat well, he could have just asked his counterparts from other worlds to send him money via red envelopes.
There was absolutely no need to make things this complicated.
As for the so-called original pairings.
Ah.
I've already crossed over into anime, and you're talking to me about pairings?
All the girls I fancy will be brought home and given a good scolding.
If I can't even do whatever I want in the world of anime, then all the hard work I put into earning money, becoming stronger, and all the suffering I endured was completely meaningless!?
reason?
I've already time-traveled, what reason do I need?!
Besides, don't you think about it? Earth sends so many people to other worlds every day, there must be something wrong with them!
Why would someone with excellent character and outstanding abilities transmigrate to another world? Wouldn't it be better for her to stay on her own?
"Hey, Giyuu-kun~ It's rare to find someone with a decent face. Although he's still not as good-looking as me, he's at least a bit more handsome than Sanemi. Being so aloof all the time will make people dislike you~."
He ignored Sanemi Shinazugawa's shouts, "Are you looking for a fight?!"
Xia Yan patted Tomioka Giyuu on the shoulder and quietly switched places with him, standing next to Kanroji Mitsuri.
“——!!?”
Xia Yan's words struck Tomioka Giyu like a thunderbolt, leaving him frozen in place.
"I...I'm not disliked!!"
After a moment of silence, Yoshiyuki Tomioka spoke slowly but firmly.
"Oh right, you weren't disliked." Xia Yan casually brushed him off, then looked at Kanroji Mitsuri beside him. "Don't be nervous, Mitsuri, Giyuu is actually a very interesting person."
"I'm the kind of person who will feel sad for half a day after being told I hate something, and at the same time, I'll wonder if I did something wrong."
So you didn't hate me after all...
However, calling someone by their name directly... wouldn't that seem too intimate?
Hearing Xia Yan address her, Kanroji Mitsuri paused for a moment, lowered her head with a slight blush on her face, but she also understood that Xia Yan had come to comfort her.
"Thank you, Mr. Narukami... I don't dislike Mr. Tomioka."
Upon hearing this, Yoshiyuki Tomioka, who had been listening intently, breathed a sigh of relief.
“Calling me Mr. Narukami Light is too formal. Just call me Natsuhiko.” Without giving Kanroji Mitsuri a chance to refuse, Natsuhiko continued, “Actually, you’ll know once you get to know him. Giyu is one of the most fun personalities to tease, it’s a pity he’s a man…”
"Eh!? What if Mr. Tomioka were a girl!?"
As expected, Xia Yan's words immediately caught Ganlu Temple's attention, making her stop focusing on the issue of address.
Xia Yan's lips curled up slightly.
"If it were a girl, she might be the type who, even if she was bullied, would just hide away alone and dare not tell anyone, which would lead to her being constantly threatened and bullied, and ultimately causing her to fall into evil."
"Is...is that so!? That's really dangerous!!!"
Kanroji Mitsuri shuddered, her face filled with lingering fear.
It's as if you can already imagine a woman named Giyu Tomioka being constantly humiliated, yet being used as a threat by this incident, ultimately forced to fall into the abyss.
"Natsuhiko-kun's views on others... are so strange... but they seem quite interesting too. So what do you think of the other Pillars!"
Kanroji Mitsuri's problem drew the attention of the other Pillars as well.
After all, Xia Yan's statement, although... somewhat strange... was indeed quite novel, which made them curious as well.
As for Shinobu Kocho, she simply spat and turned her head away.
Although almost everyone knew about their affair, she was, after all, just the sister-in-law in terms of status.
Moreover, she herself doesn't seem to want to make it official.
So every time there's a meeting of the pillars, he would bury his head in the sand and stand in the farthest position from Xia Yan, so now he's just watching Xia Yan's flirting with girls with a huff.
"The other pillars? Oh dear... let me think..."
Xia Yan looked up and met Rengoku Kyojuro's eyes, which were like those of a rooster.
Normally it would be as bright as a flame, but now it was flashing four large characters.
I'm curious!
"Then let's talk about Kyojuro."
"Hmm! Don't be shy, please feel free to comment on me, I will accept it gratefully!" Rengoku Kyojuro said with great enthusiasm.
"Okay, okay, I understand..." Xia Yan rubbed his chin, trying to find the right words.
"If Kyojuro were a girl, she would probably be the kind of bold and outgoing big sister who's like a sunflower."
"If someone gives me a gift, I will accept it with a smile and give a gift of equal value in return. If I encounter unreasonable requests, I will not only refuse them clearly, but I will also try to correct their thinking."
"I see! So that's what I'm like. Thank you, Xia Yan!"
Seemingly quite satisfied with his assessment, Rengoku Kyojuro spoke loudly and energetically.
This only made the other pillars more curious.
After all, Xia Yan's description was strange... but upon closer inspection, it actually made sense!
"Let's talk about Tianyuan next..."
Xia Yan made Uzui Tengen his next target for persecution.
If we're talking about the closest relationships, he's closest to Uzui Tengen, Rengoku Kyojuro, and Himejima Gyomei, and they often joke around with each other.
Therefore, I won't get angry at Xia Yan's nonsensical comments; at most, I'll just make a few sarcastic remarks.
If we evaluate them first, then when we talk about the other people with whom we don't have a proper relationship and who have opinions about Xia Yan, they won't be able to get angry.
After all, if others aren't angry, their overreaction might make them seem out of place.
As for Giyu Tomioka...
He's just a victim who's been persecuted frequently!
In situations where social interaction is necessary, person i is only fit to be a toy for person e!
Chapter 367 Not-So-Clever
"Hmph, want to give me a rating? Even among women, I'm the most glamorous one! I'm glamorous beyond belief!"
While speaking, Uzui Tengen was also posing rather narcissistically.
In terms of personality, he is the kind of person with somewhat unconventional ideas, and he is more carefree than the other pillars.
After all, he is a self-proclaimed god of celebrations, and a man who can even come up with the idea of having a male swordsman dress as a woman to infiltrate a brothel for investigation.
And with Giyu Tomioka's embarrassing reputation preceding him, he can't be too bad himself, right?
"Tengen is probably a mid-level prostitute who has worked for several years but then met her true love and was redeemed by paying money."
"what???"
Upon hearing Xia Yan's first comment, Yu Zui Tianyuan slowly raised a few question marks above his head.
He felt his emotions were becoming somewhat disjointed.
"Why am I being called a courtesan here? And a mid-level one at that? Even if I'm not the top courtesan, I should at least be a high-level courtesan!"
The other pillars looked at Uzui Tengen speechlessly.
I thought you'd have some profound insights to offer since you're openly refuting this, but it turns out you're just dissatisfied with the level of the female characters.
Isn't this focus a bit too strange?
No matter how high-class a courtesan is, she's still just a courtesan, isn't she?
"Hmph, I have my reasons for making this assessment, do you want to hear them or not!"
Xia Yan adopted a self-righteous and defiant stance, successfully suppressing Yu Zui Tianyuan's uprising.
"The courtesans of the higher-ups eat and drink well every day, living a life of extravagance and debauchery. Who would have thought you'd be one of them!"
"Only mid-level courtesans, after being redeemed, will feel inferior because of their past. They will treat men even better and ignore their own feelings, and will be able to endure any unreasonable demands."
After hearing Xia Yan's words, all the pillars thought that Uzui Tengen would continue to refute.
However, the God of Festivals, who is usually as active as Xia Yanneng, was unexpectedly silent at this moment.
There is no other reason.
Simply because Xia Yan's evaluation was correct, direct, fair, complete, and incisive.
Unlike Pillars like Sanemi Shinazugawa, Obanai Iguro, or Shinobu Kocho, who had deep-seated hatred for demons, Tengen Uzui actually had no grudges against demons.
Uzui Tengen was born into a ninja family.
Others might be surprised or even moved when they hear the word "ninja".
But Uzui Tengen never felt that the so-called ninjas were anything mysterious or cool. On the contrary, in his mind, the status of a ninja was perhaps even lower than that of a lowly courtesan!
Unlike the superpowered warriors in the Naruto world who can fly, breathe fire and water, or even wield nuclear weapons, they are different.
The so-called ninjas in the Demon Slayer world are specially trained assassins and suicide soldiers.
Their work encompasses assassinations, espionage, and intelligence gathering.
Hidden in the shadows, they kill without a trace, and they are ruthless in their methods.
Therefore, ninja training is cruel and inhumane.
Uzui Tengen has nine brothers and sisters.
Three of them died before the age of ten due to that rigorous training.
As the era of ninjas had passed and the clan was declining, Uzui Tengen's father, as the clan head, forced them to use even more brutal training methods.
