Infinity, I became stronger by practicing with the female characters

Shinobu Kocho walked towards the kitchen with an unprecedentedly brisk pace.

Dongfang Shangcan poked Lia, who was peeking at the door of the disc house, and found Zhu Shi in the laboratory.

After putting the medicine that he had entrusted Zhu Shi to research into the different space, Dongfang Shangcan took out a roll of ancient parchment.

Looking at the confused Tamayo and Yushiro whose expression changed drastically, he said with a smirk:

"Madam, you don't want Muzan Kibutsuji, who killed your husband and children, to continue to be at large..."

......

After some effort, Dongfang Shangcan successfully persuaded Tamayo to sign the resident recruitment order by promising to kill Muzan Kibutsuji and find a way to resurrect her husband and children.

【Ding! 】

[Player Yuebai successfully recruited Zhu Shi as a resident of the alternate dimension. ]

[Recruiting this resident requires 10000 reincarnation points, which have been deducted.]

Looking at his remaining 400,000 reincarnation points, Dongfang Shangcan no longer thought much of the mere 10,000 reincarnation points.

Chapter 80 Arrival at the Swordsmith Village

After kidnapping Tamayo, Dongfang Shangcan turned his attention to Yushiro.

As the jealous king, Yushiro naturally does not want Tamayo to sign such a contract, but he cannot disobey Tamayo's orders.

Now that the contract has been concluded, he is leaning against the wall with a pale face.

Yushiro's blood demon art is quite interesting. Although it is not combat-oriented, it can still be good if developed well.

Besides, you can never have too many researchers.

Although his medical skills are not as good as Shinobu Kocho and Tamayo's, they are more than enough to assist the two. There are still large vacancies in residents now, so Dongfang Shangcan will naturally not miss it.

It is very easy to persuade the dog to lick the dog, especially now that the dog's goddess is in the bowl.

Dongfang Shangcan easily convinced Yushiro to sign his name on the parchment in just a few words.

In order to be able to stay with Tamayo forever, he happily sold his future life to Dongfang Shangshen.

【Ding! 】

[Player Yuebai successfully recruited Yushiro as a resident of the alternate dimension.]

[Recruiting this resident requires 6000 reincarnation points, which have been deducted.]

After completing his goal, Dongfang Shangcan left leisurely in the face of Yushiro's hostile look, which seemed to ask, "Why are you still here? Don't disturb me and Lord Tamayo."

For the next two days, Dongfang Shangshen stayed in the disc house.

In addition to normal training every day, he either improves Shinobu Kocho's favorability, or teases the somewhat natural and quiet Kanao Kurika, and also feeds the three little ones in the disc house and tells them stories.

In his fabricated story, Lin Daiyu and Jia Baoyu clash on the summit of the Bauhinia tree, their battle shattering the void and allowing both to ascend to the higher realms. A kind witch seeks out the righteous Gargamel, who helps her break the spell cast by the black fish on the prince. The curse backfires, turning the black fish into foam, while the witch and the prince live happily ever after.

Dongfang Shangshen's days in the disc house were quiet and peaceful.

The conspiracy was not broken until this day when Ubuyashiki Kōya sent Hide to deliver the message.

"Boom boom boom!"

Dongfang Shangcan heard the knock on the door and got up and opened it.

"Lord Xingzhu!"

Yin, who was standing at the door, looked at Dongfang Shangcan with eyes of longing and admiration, and his voice was indescribably fanatical.

This is also normal.

Although Dongfang Shangcan is just a newcomer among the pillars, the other pillars have not killed a single upper-rank evil spirit.

It had not been long since Dongfang Shangcan became a Pillar, but he had already killed three upper-rank demons by himself, reducing the number of upper-rank demons by half.

It is hard for the Demon Slayer Corps members who know this news not to develop a fanatical admiration for Dongfang Shangshen.

In the current Demon Slayer Corps, apart from the leader Ubuyashiki Kōya, Higashikazu is the most trusted person by the Demon Slayer Corps members.

"what happened?"

Dongfang Shangcan, who was already familiar with people talking to him in this manner, asked calmly.

"The Lord has already negotiated with the people of the Swordsmith Village. We can arrange for someone to take you and Lady Nianzhu (Liya) to the Swordsmith Village at any time."

"Okay, without further ado, I'll tell the others and we'll set off immediately."

Dongfang Shangshen is not a person who drags his feet.

Before he breaks through this derivative world, he is not ready to stay in the disc house and enjoy a comfortable life.

Having made up his mind, Dongfang Shangcan began to say goodbye to everyone in the disc house.

He received a talisman from Shinobu Kocho; Tamayo gave him all the potions she had made in the past two days; Yushiro sent him off with a happy expression as if to say, "You're finally gone, no one will disturb me and Lady Tamayo anymore"; Kurihana Kanao gave him a bottle of her favorite ramune soda; and the three little ones, Kiyoshi Terauchi, Sumi Nakahara, and Naho Takata, gave him a box of konpeito.

After putting all the things given by everyone into the backpack, Dongfang Shangcan put on a blindfold that blocked out any light, and together with Leah, who was also wearing a blindfold, they lay down behind a hidden member.

After several 'transfers' and a series of complicated confidentiality methods, he and Leah finally arrived at the mysterious knife maker village.

As the most important secret location in the Demon Slayer Corps besides the location of the head chef Kōya, the Swordsmith Village is not only home to the swordsmiths, but there have always been pillars in the village serving as guards.

Although no evil spirit has ever been able to find the Swordsmith Village, and there are some very good hot springs in the Swordsmith Village.

This place is actually more like a sanatorium for the Pillars, and the Pillars responsible for guarding the Swordsmith Village usually take turns guarding it.

When the Pillar feels tired and wants to relax, it will apply to come to the Swordsmith Village.

Of course, ordinary Demon Slayer Corps members can also come here.

In the original work, Tanjiro and Fushigawa Genya had been to the Swordsmith Village, but compared to the Pillars, it was more troublesome for ordinary members to come to the Swordsmith Village.

Dongfang Shangcan took off his blindfold and observed the Swordsmith Village with great interest.

As a hidden place, the Knife Maker Village is naturally built in the dense forest, which is in line with the setting of some secluded mountain villages.

Just looking at those neatly arranged rows of wooden houses, each three or four stories high, they're incredibly impressive! They're definitely not ordinary, which is why they were visited by Upper String Four, Hantengu, and Upper String Five, Yuhu.

Of course, it may also be caused by Tanjiro's protagonist halo.

As the protagonist, it is extremely normal that problems will arise wherever he goes.

After saying goodbye to the hidden member who carried them, Dongfang Shangcan and Leah followed the guide arranged for them by the Swordsmith Village and met a thin old man sitting on the tatami.

This unremarkable old man wearing a fire man mask is the village chief of the swordsmith village, Tetsujin Tetsukawahara.

He is also the excellent knifemaker whom Dongfang Shangcan wants to abduct and become a resident of the alien space.

In the original book, although this little old man is not very serious, his skills are still very good.

The Nichirin swords of the current Love Pillar and Rock Pillar were both forged by him.

His skills are no joke, as he was able to create the Nichirin sword that was as soft as a whip and yet strong and resilient as that of Mitsuri Kanroji.

Of course, it is not appropriate to kidnap someone right after meeting them, so Dongfang Shangcan decided to spend some time together before kidnapping the person.

According to the original novel, once Muzan was eliminated, the technology to forge the Nichirin Blade would no longer be needed. With so many educational videos from Neon Teacher on his tablet, Dongfang Shangcan didn't believe this frivolous old man wouldn't be tempted.

Tiediheyuan Tiezhen didn't know at this time that Dongfang Shangcan had already set his sights on this old man.

After a brief chat with this legend of the Demon Slayer Corps, the guide took Dongfang Shangcan and Leah to enjoy the hot springs in the Swordsmith Village.

The guide leading the way was a little unsure about the relationship between Dongfang Shangcan and Lia, so he asked curiously, "Are Master Xingzhu and Master Nianzhu going to bathe in separate pools, or in the same one?"

"Let's go together!" Leah nodded to the guide.

"Understood." The guide looked at Dongfang Shangshen and replied calmly.

Since everyone in the Swordsmith Village was wearing a Fire Man mask, Dongfang Shangcan had no idea what the other person's expression was, and he didn't care much.

Instead, he asked curiously, "By the way, I heard there's a puppet from the Warring States Period in the Swordsmith Village. It's very powerful. Practicing with it can significantly improve a swordsman's strength?"

In addition to killing the attacking Hantengou and Yuhu, Dongfang Shangcan also had another purpose for coming to the Swordsmith Village, which was to get the Sun Wheel Sword inside the doll.

That Nichirin Sword is the sword of Yoriichi Tsugakuni, the top character in "Demon Slayer".

Not to mention a diamond-level weapon, a high-level gold one should not be able to escape.

With the March of the Dead, Dongfang Shangcan didn't really need other swords or other weapons.

But if you don’t need it, you can give it to Leia, even if she doesn’t like it.

It would be better to take it to the park and sell it than to let it rot inside the doll.

The guide was silent for a moment, then said with some embarrassment, "...There is indeed such a doll, but it is badly damaged and no one can repair it. Because we don't know when it will break again, it is rarely used now.

Moreover, considering that Master Xingzhu is strong enough to kill upper-rank evil spirits, using it shouldn't increase his strength much."

"I'll grow as much as I can. My fight with Upper Rank Two made me realize that my swordsmanship still has shortcomings. I don't want to lose to the Demon King Muzan in the future just because of a single wrong move.

Rather than leaving the task of slaying Muzan to future generations, I'd rather have it done by myself. Creating a world free of demons for future generations has always been my goal. If that doll truly can break, then let me do it.

Because people in later generations no longer need to use that doll to practice."

Dongfang Shangcan, an excellent actor, was extremely firm when speaking this part, with his eyes filled with the brilliance of a martyr, like flames.

The guide was so moved that even the fire man's mask could not hide the tears that gushed out of him.

"I believe in you! Master Xingzhu! You will definitely put an end to the Demon King Muzan. I will help you find Xiaotie tonight, and I will make sure you can use that puppet tomorrow."

The guide, with tears streaming down his face, patted his chest and assured Dongfang Shangcan.

After bringing Dongfang Shangcan and Leah to the hot spring pool, he ran quickly in one direction, apparently looking for someone.

"Poor knife maker, being played around by his master."

Looking at the guide who left in a hurry, Leia said with emotion.

"loquacious!"

Poking Leah's forehead with his finger, Dongfang Shangcan took off his clothes and walked towards the open-air hot spring pool where steam was rising.

Dongfang Shangshen immersed himself in the hot spring.

The warm feeling made him feel like he was in the mother's womb, and the rising heat made every part of his body feel comfortable.

It's really nice to have a capable maid who knows exactly what you need.

For example, now, on the surface, Dongfang Shangcan is the only one soaking in this pool, and it looks normal.

But the ripples in front of him showed that something was not normal inside the pool.

Dongfang Shangcan had never expected that Leia could develop telekinesis to such an extent that she could sink into the water without having to float up to breathe.

The upper-rank evil spirits that might attack at any time, the Nichirin Sword in the puppet, and other things were temporarily put aside by Dongfang Shangcan.

He picked up the warm towel and covered his face with it, then rested his head on the stone behind him. He completely relaxed and enjoyed Leah's service.

......

The next morning, a guide wearing a fire man mask came to find Dongfang Shangshen, bringing with him a broken six-armed doll and a little kid.

"This is the owner of the doll, Kotetsu. 'Yuichi Zero Style' was created by its ancestor."

The guide rubbed Xiao Tie, who was also wearing a fire man mask, and introduced him to Dongfang Shangcan.

"Nice to meet you, Xiaotie."

Dongfang Shangcan did not look down on or ignore him just because he was a child. Instead, he started chatting with him enthusiastically.

Xiaotie, who had to bring the doll and the starting key with him because of the guide's moral kidnapping, was treated so kindly by Dongfang Shangcan, and Dongfang Shangcan now has a [Charm] attribute of 93 points.

He easily eliminated his inner unhappiness, and his favorability towards Dongfang Shangshen increased rapidly.

I feel that even if the other party really destroyed the puppet inherited from my family, it would not matter. After so many years, it should have broken down long ago.

Xiao Tie, who had 'figured it out', brought the puppet and Dongfang Shangshen to the training ground.

Insert the key into the puppet's switch and start the puppet.

"Click! Click! Click!"

The puppet that made the sound of the mechanism turning slowly stood up, its six arms holding six knives, and its only remaining eye slowly moved.

When its 'sight' fell on Dongfang Shangcan, its body moved and accelerated instantly.
