Where should I go after being transported to Demon Slayer?

Chapter 113 Tanjiro's Promise



Chapter 113 Tanjiro's Promise

Everyone turned their attention to this.

Ten-ichi moved quickly, pressing Tanjiro's raised head back down.

"Mr. Tenichi, this is..." Tanjiro was interrupted before he could speak.

"Don't speak," Tianyi interrupted.

Everyone knelt down, a scene that shocked Tanjiro.

A figure walked out of the house.

"Good morning."

"My dear swordsmen, the weather is still so blue today."

"I am truly gratified to have such a biannual meeting of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China, with no unfamiliar faces at all."

Sanemi spoke up and asked, "My lord, before the Pillars meeting, could you please explain the matter of Tanjiro Kamado becoming a Demon Slayer with a demon by bringing a demon with him?"

Kagaya Ubuyashiki smiled and said, "Tanjiro is carrying a demon; I gave him permission."

"And I hope everyone can also recognize their abilities."

Xingming, with tears streaming down his face, said, "Even if it is the Lord's request, I find it difficult to agree."

"I also strongly object; it's really hard to accept a Demon Slayer with a demon on board."

"I will obey my lord," Tianyi said, looking up.

“I stand with Tenichi because I trust him, because he doesn’t do things he’s not sure about,” Kyojuro said loudly.

“I stand with Brother Tianyi, I believe in him,” Wuyilang said.

Yi Yong didn't say a word, he just stood there in a daze.

"I'm sorry, Tenichi, I can't trust ghosts. To be honest, I hate ghosts the most," Obanai shook her head.

"The Demon Slayer Corps is about annihilating demons. I hope you can deal with Kamado and Tomioka."

Everyone slowly stood up, except for Tenichi, who didn't stand up because he wanted to hold Tanjiro down, since he was now a criminal.

Kagaya Ubuyashiki said softly, "Take out the letter."

"Yes."

The white-haired girl took out a letter from her chest and slowly began to read it aloud.

"This letter was sent by Lord Urokodaki Sakonji, the former Pillar. I will read part of it. Please allow Tanjiro to be with his sister, who is a demon. Nezuko, relying on her strong willpower, has maintained her rationality as a human. Even when she was starving, she did not eat people and lived like that for more than two years. Although it is hard to believe at first glance, it is an undeniable fact. If Nezuko attacks anyone, Tanjiro Kamado and Giyu Tomioka, the former Pillar of Urokodaki Sakonji, will commit seppuku to atone for their sins."

Tanjiro's eyes filled with tears, which slowly streamed down his face.

"What does cutting your skin prove? If you want to die, then just die already! It's not a guarantee at all."

"Brother Feng, say less. Give me some face and let this matter pass."

“Other things are fine, but this is the only thing I can’t do.” Seeing that Shimi shook her head in refusal, Tenichi had nothing more to say.

"What if this ghost kills someone? The dead cannot be brought back to life."

"That's true. There's no guarantee she won't hurt someone, nor can we prove it."

"It is a fact that Nezuko has not eaten anyone for more than two years, and three people risked their lives for Nezuko. If you want to deny this, the party making the denial must also produce something of higher value."

"Does everyone have that kind of will?"

Sanemi spoke again, "I don't understand, my lord! If it were a human, I could let it go, but not a demon. How much conviction has our Demon Slayer Corps been fighting with, and how many people have sacrificed themselves for it?"

"Therefore I cannot tolerate it."

Sanemi drew his Nichirin Blade and, without saying a word, slashed his own hand.

Tanjiro was shocked, his mouth agape.

"Don't come to me for this knife wound; you brought it on yourself," Tianyi replied coldly.

Blood slowly dripped onto the ground, and everyone got used to it.

"My lord, I will now come to testify."

Tenya handed the box out, and Sanemi stepped on it.

"You evil spirit, come out and eat some delicious food!"

"Sanemi, are you really stupid? What kind of ghost comes out to forage for food so early in the morning?"

As soon as Tenichi said that, Sanemi picked up the suitcase the next second.

"My lord, I'm sorry, but I need to borrow this room for a moment."

Sanemi picked up the box and jumped up, then slowly opened it.

Nezuko popped out from inside, her innocent and adorable eyes revealing her naivety.

"Don't worry, she'll be fine. No matter what, they have to give me face."

Tenichi spoke calmly, after all, he was absolutely confident that he could protect Nezuko.

Sanemi extended his hand so Nezuko could take a good look at it.

Tenichi's three tomoe transformed into a kaleidoscope, and he stared directly at Nezuko.

"Turn your head around."

Nezuko instantly turned her head in another direction.

"So this proves that Nezuko won't attack others, right?"

Tenichi released his hand and helped Tanjiro up.

"Tanjiro, even so, there must still be people who can't tolerate Mizuko."

"You must prove that from now on, Tanjiro and Nezuko can fight as members of the Demon Slayer Corps and that they can be of use."

Tanjiro immediately knelt down on both knees and bowed to his lord.

What's with this feeling? A light, airy voice. Is it this person's voice that's making my brain feel light?

"Go and defeat the Twelve Demon Moons. That way, everyone will recognize you, and Tanjiro's words will carry more weight."

Tanjiro stood up resolutely. "I... Nezuko and I will defeat Muzan Kibutsuji! Nezuko and I will definitely! Cut the chains of sorrow with our swords."

"You can't do it yet. First, defeat one of the Twelve Demon Moons."

Tanjiro blushed deeply, realizing how foolish he had been.

Tenichi covered his mouth to stop himself from laughing, and Kanae did the same.

"The Pillars of the Demon Slayer Corps certainly all have outstanding talents. Xiang Tianyi fought against three Upper Moons all by himself and still managed to escape successfully."

Tanjiro looked over with excited eyes, and Tenichi turned his head away embarrassedly.

"Hey, hey, hey, don't look at me. I'm just here to make people laugh."

Kanae said, "Goto can send him to the Butterfly Mansion, since he's still injured."

"Alright, take them away."

Nezuko was huddled alone in the box when another member of the group picked her up and carried her away.

"I'm sorry," Goto said, leading Tanjiro and they started running.

"Then let's begin the Pillar Meeting..."

But Tanjiro broke free again and ran back.

"Please wait a moment! My lord, I have something else to say..."

"Susanoo!" Tenichi slowly opened his eyes, and the Mangekyou Sharingan was spinning wildly inside them.

Susanoo slowly rose from the ground. "Tanjiro, is there anything else you want to say?"

"Hey, Tianyi, you can't get angry with the child."

"This guy is so disrespectful to our lord, I'm going to beat him up."

Everyone acted as peacemakers, saying, "It's alright, it's alright, look, even the lord isn't angry."

Susanoo slowly disappeared, and Tenichi stood quietly in place.
