Fox Demon: God rewards hard work, I will eventually master martial arts and become a god

"Is there a certain delay?"

Tanjiro Kamado didn't know the reason, so he could only say:

"Okay, I know."

Ubuyashiki Hikaru nodded slightly:
"Well, say hello to Mr. Urokodaki, and Mr. Kamado Tanjiro, wish you a safe journey."

Tanjiro Kamado was confused, but left anyway.

After several days of training and traveling, Mount Narrow Mist had already appeared in his sight.

This was much faster than the last time he rushed from Narrow Mt. to Wisteria Mt. It must be said that what he learned in battle, after a few simple trainings, was soon engraved in his bones.

Tanjiro Kamado felt a little excited when he saw Sagiriyama. He felt that he hadn't seen Nezuko for a while.

I don't know how Nezuko is doing now.

Tanjiro Kamado soon saw Urokodaki Sakonji's room and couldn't wait to walk in.

Urokodaki Sakonji was not there, but Tanjiro Kamado saw the pretty Nezuko at a glance. She was kneeling by the stove, nodding her head drowsily.

Nezuko also noticed the presence of Tanjiro Kamado and immediately woke up. The moment she saw Tanjiro Kamado, her eyebrows were curved and her eyes were flashing, as if saying welcome back.

Just like a few years ago.

"I'm back, Nezuko."

Tanjiro Kamado's excited heart calmed down slightly. He spoke softly, then sat next to Nezuko and began to gently recount the various things that had happened in this trial.

Of course, he hid Lin Yu's existence. Although the trial seemed a bit boring without Lin Yu, Tanjiro Kamado still told everything he experienced in detail.

For example, if he encountered some kind of danger, or if he saw the wisteria flowers all over Wisteria Mountain, he would take Nezuko to see them after she recovered.

Speaking of which, we talked about some very daily things.

Tanjiro Kamado talked incessantly, but Nezuko listened with great interest.

Although she cannot speak, Nezuko always expresses various emotions through facial expressions or body movements.

Tanjiro Kamado suddenly felt that time was always particularly leisurely.

Naturally, this period of time when the two of them were alone ended with the return of Urokodaki Sakonji.

Urokodaki Sakonji was still wearing his Tengu mask. When he saw Kamado Tanjiro return and smiled, he froze subconsciously, then walked over quickly, stretched out his hand, then paused, and finally said:

"Welcome back, it looks like the trial went well."

"Yes, Mr. Urokodaki, this time I unexpectedly learned about your disciples' experiences in the trials over the years."

Tanjiro Kamado said solemnly.

"My disciple...how did you know..."

Urokodaki Sakonji was stunned for a moment. This matter has always been a knot in his heart.

He believed that the disciples he taught were strong enough to pass the trial. After all, he had participated in the capture of ghosts in the past, so he naturally knew the strength of the ghosts in the trial.

Over the years, many of the disciples he taught died in the trials, so he began to doubt whether his judgment was wrong. Therefore, every time he taught his disciples, he would raise the strength threshold for them to participate in the trials, hoping that some of his disciples would be able to break this rule.

As a result, after Tanjiro Kamado appeared, he was no longer worried, but Tanjiro Kamado brought up the issue again.

"Is such that……"

Tanjiro Kamado told the story of his encounter with the hand demon, and described the details in detail.

Although he would not tell anyone that Shinkomo and Sento were still on Sagiri Mountain, he felt that he should still tell Urokodaki Sakonji about the hand ghost.

After he finished telling everything, Urokodaki Sakonji fell into a long silence.

He didn't expect that the cause of the matter that had been troubling him was the evil ghost that he had caught with his own hands.

Things in the world are so wonderful, or is it the law of cause and effect and reincarnation?
"Mr. Urokotaki, I think this is just a coincidence. Don't think too much about it."

Tanjiro Kamado saw the confusion in Urokodaki Sakonji's heart and said,

"No, I just think it's karma."

Urokodaki Sakonji shook his head.

The trance in his mind was only for a moment. To him, perhaps his disciple really died partly because of the evil ghost's hatred for him, but the real culprit could only be said to be the hand ghost.

He had no regrets about catching ghosts.

After all, many people do not voluntarily become ghosts. If we really have to put the blame on one person, then there is only one person who can be that person.

That is the King of Evil Ghosts who created evil ghosts.

Unfortunately, he didn't have the ability to kill the other party at that time, and he couldn't even find the trace of the King of Evil Ghosts.

He didn't find it back then, and now in his old age he can't do much.

Fortunately, the current Tanjiro Kamado allows him to see this possibility.

He patted Tanjiro Kamado's shoulder and said:
"Tanjiro, I have always believed that you could pass the trial, but now it seems that you might be able to kill the Demon King."

"It's not maybe, it's definitely. If it doesn't work, I will spend my whole life looking for a way to defeat you."

Tanjiro Kamado said seriously.

Moreover, he believed in his heart that the latter part was just a polite remark. After all, with such a strong backing as Lin Yu, it would only be a matter of time before the King of Evil Ghosts was killed.

"That's good. That's good."

Urokodaki Sakonji said this twice, and at this time he was completely relieved about the young man in front of him.

"By the way, Mr. Urokodaki, I told you before that the girl who presided over the trial, Ms. Ubuyashiki Hikaru, said that my notification about joining the team would be later in the evening. I don't know the details. Do you know anything similar?"

After talking about the hand ghost, Tanjiro Kamado naturally thought of the previous incident with Ubuyashiki Hika.

Urokodaki Sakonji was very concerned about his joining the Demon Slayer Corps, so naturally he had to tell the other party.

"The notification of joining the team will be sent later in the evening?"

Urokodaki Sakonji was stunned for a moment, thinking back to the trials in recent years, these problems should not have occurred. He couldn't help but feel a little puzzled, and asked:
"Did Ms. Hika say anything else?"

"She said it was because of my special performance in the trial."

Tanjiro Kamado thought for a moment and answered.

"Special performance? Well... killing a demon does prove that your ability is far superior to that of your peers, but it can only be considered excellent at best..."

Urokodaki Sakonji felt even more confused.

"Ah, no, actually it's because I killed all the ghosts in Wisteria Mountain by myself on the first day. I think that's what Ms. Ubuyashiki Hikaru is talking about."

Tanjiro Kamado thought about everyone's behavior when they just came out, and guessed that it was not a problem with the hand ghost.

"On the first day, all the ghosts were killed?!"

Urokodaki Sakonji was a little dazed.

"Well, within three hours to be exact."

Tanjiro Kamado nodded and corrected.

In reality, the time should be shorter, but Tanjiro Kamado also included the time he spent wandering in the trial ground, so it was calculated as three hours. "Three hours?"

The Tengu mask of Urokodaki Sakonji seemed to be distorted, and completely turned into the shape of a question mark.

Three hours?

At his current pace, he had probably just completed his tour of the entire Wisteria Hill.

In other words, if he followed his pace, he would have to kill the evil spirits with his sword almost non-stop and accurately find the location of each evil spirit.

This is simply impossible!

How did Tanjiro Kamado accomplish this?
Urokodaki Sakonji looked at Tanjiro Kamado as if he were a monster.

After a long while, he slowly shook his head.

I’m old, really old. From now on, this world will truly be a world for young people.

"Mr. Urokodaki, is there a problem?"

Tanjiro Kamado couldn't help but ask when he saw that Urokodaki Sakonji didn't speak for a long time.

"No problem. I guess the delay in notification Ms. Hika mentioned is probably because those people are figuring out how to handle your matter."

Urokodaki Sakonji gave a wry smile.

As soon as Tanjiro Kamado became a member of the Demon Slayer Corps, he brought a big problem to the entire Corps.

He guessed that Mr. Ubuyashiki must be very troubled about how to define Tanjiro Kamado's position.

"Studying my business?"

Tanjiro Kamado was a little confused. He didn't quite understand what Urokodaki Sakonji meant.

And just as Urokodaki Sakonji said, the entire Demon Slayer Corps headquarters is now shocked by Tanjiro Kamado.

One person eliminated all the evil spirits within just a few hours of entering the trial!
This doesn't seem like something a novice should do.

This news was reported through many levels and finally reached the hands of the Demon Slayer Corps' lord, Ubuyashiki Yoshiya.

In the huge courtyard, a sick man sat at his desk, quietly watching the information his subordinates conveyed to him through crows.

He was actually not that surprised about Tanjiro Kamado, or to be more precise, the time for him to be surprised had passed. After all, Ubuyashiki Hika was his daughter, and she had already told him the information orally when she returned.

Of course, his degree of surprise was not great.

After all, he had discovered a genius himself before.

The genius showed great strength from the very beginning and soon gained the position of the Pillar of the Clouds.

In contrast, Tanjiro Kamado was facing evil spirits in trials after all, and their strength was not high. What was shocking was the opponent's speed.

Ubuyashiki Kōya has a question mark in his mind about how strong Tanjiro Kamado is.

Compared to being shocked by the other party's strength, Ubuyashiki Yoya was actually more interested in how to deal with this matter.

After all, the Demon Slayer Corps has been fighting against evil spirits for so many years, and there have not been many exciting breakthroughs.

The emergence of a genius is definitely extremely exciting news.

If handled well, it might inspire many young people in the Demon Slayer Corps.

After thinking for a moment, Ubuyashiki Yoya felt that the most important thing was to thoroughly test Tanjiro Kamado's strength first, so that he could better arrange his work.

"Maybe this can be done..."

Ubuyashiki Yoya muttered to himself, and subconsciously wanted to get up and get the pen and ink beside him, but was interrupted by a gentle voice:

"My Lord, leave this matter to me. Take care of yourself."

A beautiful woman pushed the pen and ink in front of Ubuyashiki Yoya and reminded him softly.

"Tianyin, it's okay. I know my own body."

A blush welled up on Ubuyashiki Yoya's face, but he finally held it back. He waved his hand and said it didn't matter.

Compared to his own body, he devoted all his attention to how to manage the Demon Slayer Corps.

He also knew how hopeless his body was, and he didn't want to spend too much energy on it.

But in the end, after Tianyin persuaded him again, he sat down and asked Ubuyashiki Tianyin to write for him while he was talking:
"Notify Kocho Shinobu and have her go to Sagiri Mountain to investigate Tanjiro Kamado in person. At the same time, I will inform them of the location of the next mission. Tanjiro Kamado will be the main person, and Kocho Shinobu will protect him."

"Pay special attention to the news about Tanjiro Kamado."

"Just let the swordsmith go through the process normally. As for Tanjiro Kamado's strength level, we will make a judgment after Shinobu Kocho completes the mission with Tanjiro Kamado."

Ubuyashiki Yoya said a lot, and Ubuyashiki Amane wrote it down stroke by stroke, and then handed it to the crow beside him.

The crow nodded wisely and flew away with a cackle.

"My lord, it's time to rest."

Ubuyashiki Amane sent the crow away and walked to Ubuyashiki Yoya to remind him.

Ubuyashiki Yoya smiled slightly, stood up and opened the window.

"Tianyin, everyone will die eventually, but if ghosts are not eliminated, they will only increase in number."

"My life is so insignificant. If I can do my bit to help exorcise the demons, then death is nothing to be sad about."

"As long as the demons are not eliminated, I will do my best to contribute to the work of exterminating demons. This is also the mission of every generation of the Demon Slayer Corps."

"This is also the reason why the Demon Slayer Corps can continue to exist even though the government does not recognize us."

Ubuyashiki Yoya looked at his wife beside him, his eyes full of tenderness.

"Tianyin, if we can kill Muzan, we must live together for a very long time."

"Ah."

In response, he was embraced by Ubuyashiki Amane.

…………

At this time, Shinobu Kocho was watching the cheerful scene in the Insect Pillar's hut with a smile.

The Insect Pillar House is rarely so happy.

One is that she has been busy with the Demon Slayer Corps missions and rarely appears in the Insect Pillar's hut. The second is that today is the day when Kanao Kocho returns after passing the trial.

The three little ones couldn't wait to prepare the celebration scene and made a lot of delicious buns and snacks, waiting for the return of Butterfly Chanel.

When Butterfly Kanao walked back to the room, San Xiaobian rushed out from behind the door and shouted:
"Congratulations to Sister Kanao for passing the trial!"

An expression of surprise appeared on Butterfly Kanao's face at the right time, and then she couldn't help but smile.

The three little ones were naturally very satisfied with Butterfly Kanao's performance, and then took Butterfly Kanao to the kitchen.

Shinobu Kocho was drinking tea in the kitchen. She looked at Kanao Kocho and said "Congratulations".

The two looked at each other and smiled.

Although everyone knows that the trial will be passed, returning safely is always worth celebrating. (End of this chapter)
