Simulation: Starting from Under One Person

Fang Rui said this, but the worried expressions of Kamado Aoi and the others did not lessen.

Seeing this, Fang Rui smiled helplessly: "Since that's the case, let's wait a while before leaving! Let's leave after we've confirmed that Nezuko Kamado is safe..."

As they spoke, Kamado Aoi and the others looked at them with gratitude, all marveling at how understanding their benefactor was.

But waiting idly was rather boring for Fang Rui, so he decided to find something to do...

"Takeo, where is your father's grave?"

After a few seconds of stunned silence, Zhu Xiong seemed to guess the reason why Fang Rui had asked about this matter, and suddenly became somewhat excited.

"I know, please come with me!"

As he spoke, Zhu Xiong took steps that seemed to float and walk, heading into the forest.

In an open space a hundred meters away from the residence, mounds of earth stand quietly, with thin wooden planks stuck in front of them.

'It's really rudimentary!'

With this thought in mind, Fang Rui stood in front of the wooden board that read "Kamado Tanjuro".

"Tanjuro Kamado, come back!"

Using the power of magic, they extracted Tanjuro Kamado's soul from the underworld.

Since an agreement had already been reached, the underworld did not object, but only left a message for Fang Rui: "The first one."

Chapter 270 An Invitation from the Demon Slayer Corps

An illusory soul hovered above the mound, and Tanjuro Kamado stared blankly around.

The changing light and shadows left him somewhat bewildered.

And the environment he was in at that moment felt strangely familiar.

The two people in front of me, one was a complete stranger, and the other seemed somewhat... no, very familiar!

“Takeo, you…” Kamado Tanjuro hesitated, a hint of sorrow in his eyes.

"Father." After a long time, Kamado Takeo saw Kamado Tanjuro again, but the two were in a somewhat awkward situation.

clap~

The sound of clapping interrupted their sorrowful thoughts and drew their attention to Fang Rui.

“I know you have a lot to say, but there’s no need to say it now. There will be plenty of time to reminisce later.”

'A familiar voice.'

Kamado Tanjuro's gaze then fell on Fang Rui. He was certain that this person's voice was exactly the same as the voice he had heard in hell.

"Hello, may I ask why you summoned me here?"

Fang Rui raised an eyebrow slightly, not at all surprised. There was only one person here, so it was only natural that he would guess it was him.

"I'm giving you a chance, a chance to avenge your family."

Fang Rui didn't go into details, but instead turned his gaze to Kamado Takeo, signaling him to speak...

A few minutes later, Tanjuro Kamado, who already knew the cause and effect of the matter, had a gloomy and serious expression.

"Thank you!" Kamado Tanjuro's tone was exceptionally sincere. "From now on, your orders will be my goals. Although I am just an ordinary charcoal burner and cannot offer you any assistance!"

'No, you seem to have some misunderstanding about the terms "ordinary" and "charcoal burner."'

"Having mastered the transparent world and the breath of the sun, and possessing innate markings, you are simply not of the ordinary kind."

"Meet with your family first! Come find me at the top of the mountain after this is over."

With that, Fang Rui turned and left. He had no interest in watching his family reunite, after all... it would only bring him loneliness!

At the mountaintop, Fang Rui looked up at the starry sky and, with the help of divination, he already knew the location of Yoriichi Tsugikuni's grave.

By the way, let's divine where the valuable items are located...

"Ghost blood and medicinal formulas... and special minerals?"

“Ore containing the power of the sun, even if it is of a low grade, is still a good material for forging magical artifacts.”

"In general, my stance is completely opposed to that of demons, so cooperating with the Demon Slayer Corps is a good option."

As he spoke, Fang Rui began to ponder the modification plan for the Ten-Tails. Although the modification work had been handed over to the clone, it was only right for the main body to add more work for the clone.

"Keep the Chakra Condensation Fruit's ability! But there's no need to activate it, so deactivate it!"

"I've added the function of photosynthesis to absorb and release spiritual energy, since I cultivate Qi, not chakra."

"...For the Ten-Tails to fully evolve into the God Tree, it needs to devour an Otsutsuki. Let's modify that! Anyway, I have no interest in the complete form of the God Tree."

As Fang Rui was busy, the dawn pierced the night, and beams of sunlight shone on the snow-covered forest. The snow slowly melted, the temperature gradually rose, and a morning breeze blew...

It should have given people hope and warmth, but Tanjiro Kamado felt as if he had fallen into an ice cellar.

He stood in front of the door, looking at the hellish scene inside, and let out a painful whimper as if he had lost the ability to speak, his grief and shock overflowing.

"Mom, Hanako, Takeo, Shigeru, Nezuko, Rokuta..."

The cold touch sent shivers down his spine, but Nezuko, whose body was still warm, was the only ray of light in the darkness.

Tanjiro immediately carried Nezuko on his back to the town at the foot of the mountain. Fear was written all over his face, and tears were about to well up in his eyes.

Tanjuro, Aoi, and the others stood beside Tanjiro and Nezuko, gazing at them with sorrowful eyes, wanting to touch them but unable to, wanting to comfort them but unable to.

At the same time, the sound of rushing vehicles could be heard from the mountains and forests.

Tanjuro suddenly raised his head and looked towards a certain spot in the mountains and forests.

Based on the type of sound, we can rule out the possibility of it being a wild animal. Is it a ghost? Or is it a person?

Uncertain...

At the same time, Nezuko, whom Tanjiro was carrying, woke up. The sudden movement caused Tanjiro to lose his balance, and the two fell down the snow slope and lay on the snow.

Nezuko swayed as she stood up, her head bowed. An unusual atmosphere surrounded her. Tanjiro, worried that Nezuko might notice, rushed towards her in a panic.

The next second, Nezuko, now a demon, pinned Tanjiro to the ground. Tanjiro shoved the axe handle into Nezuko's mouth and shouted loudly, trying to wake her up.

Tanjuro, Aoi, and the others were in a panic, wanting to help but unable to.

As the human and the demon remained locked in a stalemate, Tanjuro sensed a person or demon rapidly approaching through the mountains, their target...

"Hide! Tanjiro, hide quickly!!!"

A familiar voice seemed to explode in his ears. Before he could do as Tanjuro had instructed, he saw a blur appear behind Nezuko. A faint blue light was hidden in the snow-white blade as it slashed horizontally from right to left.

With one arm around Nezuko's neck, Tanjiro rolled around with her in the snow, dodging the falling blades...

At the mountaintop, Fang Rui, who was deep in thought, suddenly raised his head and looked towards a certain spot in the forest.

"Demon Slayer Corps..."

As he spoke, a cold wind blew by, and Fang Rui disappeared.

When they reappeared, they were already in the area where Giyu Tomioka and Tanjiro were.

At the top of a tree, Fang Rui stood on a branch, looking down at the two people and the ghost below.

After a lot of bickering, Tanjiro and Nezuko set off for Mount Sagiri. Tanjuro and the others did not go with them, but watched the two leave from the foot of the mountain.

As for Giyu Tomioka, he was stopped by Fang Rui after he and Tanjiro separated.

Because he was human, Tomioka Giyuu did not draw his knife, but stared blankly at Fang Rui.

"Tell Ubuyashiki that I have a cure for his illness. If you are ready to discuss it, send someone to Sagiri Mountain to find him."

Upon hearing this, Tomioka Giyuu's eyes, which had been as calm as a still pool without wind, suddenly trembled, and his sharp gaze pierced Fang Rui.

"What do you mean?"

"It doesn't mean anything, it's just a temporary place to stay."

Ignoring the change in Tomioka Giyu's tone, Fang Rui's tone remained calm.

"Well then... goodbye!"

With that, Fang Rui turned and left.

Yoshiyuki Tomioka watched Fang Rui's departing figure in silence, lost in thought.

They reunited with Tanjuro Kamado and others, and together they headed to Mount Sagiri by flying.

A few minutes later, Fang Rui arrived at Mount Sagiri. Without disturbing Urokodaki Sakonji, he quickly built a three-story wooden house next to his house using magic, and then covered it with illusion magic to prevent anyone from discovering it...

"...The third floor is mine, the second floor is your residence, and the first floor is..."

Fang Rui turned around and looked behind him. A group of souls emerged from the mist and stared at the leading boy for a moment. Fang Rui then said, "...Your residence."

"What do you think?"

"Can you see us?" asked the boy at the front of the group.

"Yes," Fang Rui replied.

"What do you want to do here?" The atmosphere changed the moment the boy asked this question.

Tanjuro Kamado could clearly sense that the boy's aura had become sharper, like a blade drawn from its sheath.

“His son is coming here to learn a trade, while I am looking for a temporary place to stay and take care of some trivial matters.”

"I have no ill intentions toward Urokodaki Sakonji."

"I will always be watching over you." The boy didn't completely believe Fang Rui's explanation.

“No problem, as I said before... the first floor is prepared for you.”

juvenile:"…………"

Ignoring the group of teenagers looking at each other in bewilderment, Fang Rui turned his gaze to Kamado Tanjuro and said, "I'm leaving for a while. I'll be back in about two days."

Upon hearing this, Tanjuro Kamado nodded slightly, indicating that he understood.

Fang Rui transformed into a golden ray of light and shot into the azure sky. Watching the golden light disappear without a trace, the youths fell silent.

Something seems... not quite right!

But upon closer inspection, it doesn't seem like there's anything wrong with it!
