Zongman: Evolution Paradise

"What are you hiding?"

There are many things she's been hiding; which one is she referring to?

"Of course, it's about when you became the so-called savior of the Demon Slayer Corps!"

Yukino Yukinoshita hugged her chest, feeling somewhat suffocated.

Jolyne countered, "Is that important?"

It's just a name, not like Yoriichi Tsugikuni, who can scare Muzan Kibutsuji to death just by his name.

"After you left, some kids from the Demon Slayer Corps came to ask us when we were going to kill the Demon King."

Hachiman Hikigaya explained to Jolyne the main reason why Yukino Yukinoshita was angry.

She wasn't going to blame Jolyne for this; she was angry with herself.

Because of my own weakness and powerlessness.

Having witnessed the rampage of demons, Yukino Yukinoshita could still comfort herself by thinking that her power was limited and she was unable to fight them.

But then suddenly many people told her that she, Jolyne, and Hachiman Hikigaya could kill the Demon King and save the world from suffering.

"When do you plan to kill the Ghost King?"

If an adult were to ask this, Yukino Yukinoshita would respond without hesitation with her sharp tongue: "How can you expect someone else to do something like slaying demons? Instead of expecting others to do it, you should hone your swordsmanship and do it yourself..."

Unfortunately, like Sanemi Shinazugawa, most of the adults in the Demon Slayer Corps were skeptical of the so-called savior.

After all, the current ruler who made the prophecy was only six years old. They were willing to believe in their ruler, but they were not blindly loyal and did not follow him unconditionally.

It's speculated that this was simply to reassure the swordsmen and prevent them from despairing about the current state of the Demon Slayer Corps.

Therefore, most of the people asking Yukino Yukinoshita are children.

These children are mostly orphans; their families were killed by demons, and the Demon Slayer Corps brought them back.

Faced with these expectant gazes, Yukino Yukinoshita could neither tell them the truth nor respond to their expectations with lies; she could only respond with silence.

That's why she acted like a relative had come to visit, and was in a somewhat unpleasant mood.

This was the scene Jolyne witnessed...

Having roughly understood Yukino Yukinoshita's feelings, Jolyne briefly estimated the time in her mind, sat down in front of the two of them, and answered her in a calm tone.

"Within a month."

"what?"

"Next time someone asks you when you're going to kill the Ghost King, tell them it'll be within a month."

Previously, Jolyne was too lazy to explain her strength, but now that things have come to this point, she intends to show off her power a little.

So what if the Demon Slayer Corps is in dire straits? I'll just take on the Twelve Demon Moons and the Demon King.

An 18-year-old college student beating up a thousand-year-old sick ghost sounds perfectly reasonable.

The mission must be completed within a month.

Jolyne thought to herself.

"what?"

Yukino Yukinoshita could hardly believe her ears, and she never expected that even in this situation, Jolyne would still be joking with her.

Completely disregarding Jolyne's words, Yukino Yukinoshita looked at Jolyne wearily and said, "No, what strength do you have?"

"Could it be that you actually believe in so-called prophecies? That's a bit too lacking in self-awareness."

Chapter 55 The Two Sleeping Peacefully

What strength do I have?

When Yukino Yukinoshita asked him this question, Jolyne opened his mouth, and countless question marks appeared on his face.

His current strength was indeed insufficient, so after careful consideration, Jolyne gave himself a month.

Learn the breathing technique, then find a few Twelve Ghost Moons to exchange for some Paradise Coins, and maximize your skill level and personal attributes.

Then prepare a funeral for Muzan Kibutsuji that isn't grand, but will have many attendees.

Unfortunately, before even taking the first step, Jolyne faced a crisis of trust from those around her.

Jolyne then realized that she hadn't shown anything particularly outstanding.

The one who least believed in prophecies was never the Demon Slayer Corps, but Yukino Yukinoshita, who was right next to him.

Jolyne looked at Yukino Yukinoshita with a strange expression. He had just been too lazy to talk, but now he really wanted to hide his strength.

When the truth comes out, Yukino Yukinoshita's expression will definitely be interesting.

"How about we consider how to complete the second phase of the mission? I've switched to swordsmanship mastery, and learning breathing techniques should be easier. What are your plans?"

Hachiman Hikigaya changed the subject.

In his view, with their current abilities, there was no need for them to think so much.

Yukino Yukinoshita's sense of morality is a bit too high. They themselves are living in precarious conditions, how can they possibly care about the world's suffering?

"Although I haven't studied it before, with my excellent skills, it's only a matter of time before I learn the breathing technique."

Yukino Yukinoshita raised her head; it was just studying, and she was confident in herself.

"Learning breathing techniques involves more than just aptitude; physical fitness is also a very important factor."

Just like the skills in the amusement park have their own attribute learning conditions, learning breathing techniques naturally requires meeting certain physical fitness standards, and the learning conditions for some powerful breathing techniques are quite demanding.

Jolyne glanced at Yukino Yukinoshita's delicate body and said definitively, "Your strength shouldn't be that high."

"Exactly 5 o'clock."

Yukino Yukinoshita's power attribute has never been improved, nor does she have any items to enhance her power; she is simply at the level of an ordinary person.

"Then I recommend you go find the Insect Pillar Shinobu Kocho. She created the Insect Breathing technique precisely because she lacked the power to do so herself."

Jolyne then looked at Hachiman Hikigaya: "As for Hikigaya, I've already found you a mentor, the Water Pillar who greeted us today. You can go find him tomorrow."

"Thanks."

Hachiman Hikigaya naturally knew the importance of a good teacher. Jolyne found him a Pillar of the Demon Slayer Corps, the pinnacle of the Demon Slayer Corps' fighting power.

"Just learn a little bit and get the skill to appear on the panel, and then you can use Paradise Coins to upgrade the skill level."

Jolyne stood up, opened the door to her room, turned back to the two of them and said with a light smile, "Then, my two lords, may your martial fortunes prosper."

The sound of the door closing echoed in the wooden house.

"Thanks to Jolyne's identity, our mission was able to be completed so smoothly."

"I can't believe it," Hachiman Hikigaya exclaimed.

It's been two days since I arrived at Demon Slayer. Not only have I not encountered any danger, but I've also successfully found the Demon Slayer Corps. Completing Phase Two is only a matter of time.

If it weren't for Jolyne, even after finding the Demon Slayer Corps, just gaining their trust would have been a huge challenge.

Not to mention being taken to headquarters so easily, where they could directly learn breathing techniques.

“It is indeed thanks to Jolyne.”

To be honest, Yukino Yukinoshita felt a little embarrassed, since she was the one who initially said she would lead the two of them to complete the mission, but she ended up not doing anything. Instead, Jolyne and Hachiman Hikigaya helped her a lot.

"Since Phase Two is about learning breathing techniques, Phase Three must be about slaying demons. I'll help Jolyne more then."

Yukino Yukinoshita thought to herself that she wasn't the type to easily accept favors from others.

……

Jolyne arrived at the workshop, where various items were piled up in different categories.

This is thanks to the bananas; whenever it comes to work in the workshop, they can fully utilize their initiative and work as hard as an unsung hero.

As soon as you mention bananas, they fly right over.

"Boss, when can I go out again?"

"next time."

"When is the next time?"

"Next time is next time."

Ever since its last trip, it has been longing to go out again, but a flying banana is a bit too conspicuous, and besides, it is an artificially disabled person. Letting it out would probably attract too much attention.

Just like seeing a blond guy on the street wouldn't elicit any special reaction, but when you meet Paimon, you know that the blond guy next to him is a traveler.

They easily found their way to the workshop's equipment area, where Saeko Busujima and Shizuka Marikawa were lying quietly inside the glass chamber, waiting for Veronica's enhancement to be completed.

Today is the fifth day since they left Tokoname City, and they will wake up in two more days.

Although there have been many things to do these past few days, Jolyne has still managed to visit the place quite a few times in order to prevent any unexpected situations from arising.

After observation, it was found that they not only did not develop any strange limbs, but they also became even more beautiful and charming.

Previously, Shizuka Marikawa's skin tone was somewhat dark, but now it has transformed into a delicate and fair complexion, as smooth and delicate as mutton fat jade.

At this moment, she casually spread out her legs in the cabin.

Saeko Busujima's purple hair swayed casually behind her, and Jolyne could hear her steady breathing. Her skin was also much whiter and more delicate than before, especially her face, which was filled with a breathtaking beauty.

"She'll be very happy when Saeko wakes up."

Jolyne looked at Saeko Busujima and suddenly thought of something.

Saeko Busujima loves swordsmanship and strength, so the breathing techniques and swordsmanship in Demon Slayer will likely surprise her.

As for Shizuka Marikawa next to her, she probably wouldn't be too interested. After all, Demon Slayer isn't modern-day; there's no television, no clothes she likes, and not even much decent food.

However, according to Evolution Paradise, the rules of the world are not uniform, and only those with the aptitude can learn the special abilities of other worlds.

"Paradise, do the two people before me possess the necessary qualifications?"

Jolyne lowered her head and asked the amusement park.

The bracelet flashed faintly, and after a long while, it sent a message.

[have]

"You have them all?"

Jolyne has met many naturally gifted individuals, including Megumi Kato, Miko Yotsuya, Hana Yurikawa, Ai Haibara, and Saeko Busujima and Shizuka Marikawa in front of her.

They all share a common characteristic: in a sense, they are the main characters in the story.

However, Yukino Yukinoshita and Hachiman Hikigaya are also main characters, but Jolyne confirmed that they were not qualified before becoming players.

There doesn't seem to be a necessary connection between the two...

Perhaps the cause and effect are exactly the opposite; it is precisely because they are born with these qualities that they stand out in the world and become the protagonists.

So what kind of creatures are born with this ability?

Is it really like the fruit fly that suddenly appeared in Mendel's hybridization experiment, where everything is random?

[Insufficient culture sequence, unable to answer]

"So, an A isn't enough after all?"

Jolyne glanced at the panel; to advance to S rank, she needed three consecutive S-rank ratings.

We'll have to wait until the next mission is completed before we can get more information.

He doesn't know what he'll encounter in the next world, and whether he can become an S-level trainee depends on luck.

Chapter 56 The apartment was also peaceful today.

The sound of raindrops pattering outside makes it a perfect day for sleeping.

Ai Haibara stretched and sat up from the table. She glanced at the time; it was almost six o'clock, but Jolyne still hadn't returned.

Although she has a computer, she doesn't have Xu Lun's contact information and doesn't know the specifics of the situation.
