Animeverse Slayer!

Opening his eyes Leo found himself in a quiet room with white walls and open windows. The wind swept inside the room bringing a sense of calm to his mind.

Looking around he found three more beds to his right and laying on them were three figures wrapped in bandages looking like mummies. One of them was awake and he was munching on a rice ball.

Sensing someone's gaze Giyu looked around and saw a mummy sitting at the far end. His eyes went wide and he yelled.

"Leo! You are awake. I thought you were dead!"

F*ck you!

Leo wanted to raise his finger to give him a polite gesture but he found them tightly bound, smell of medicine and disinfectants assaulted his nose when he looked down.

"Hey Sabito, Makomo! Leo is awake! Hey! Guys wake up."

Giyu's insistent yapping woke up the other two mummies. Both of them were hurt pretty badly otherwise Giyu would be eating dirt by now.

"It's good you are alright."

"Um."

Leo was happy to see his friends alive. He asked them.

"How long was I out for?"

"A week."

"Yeah. You should really thank Shinobu-san for taking care of you. Oh! That's the name of the one that treated you."

Giyu explained while filling his mouth with food. Sabito and Makomo wanted to beat the crap out of him but unfortunately they were hurt and couldn't move.

Among them Giyu was the least hurt and he could eat all the food he want, this made the other two envy and hate him.

While they were talking a beautiful lady wearing flower haori over her Demon Slayer uniform walked in. Immediately all four of them stopped talking, the lady smiled. When she looked at Leo she exclaimed and quickly walked towards him.

She checked his wounds and made sure the stitchings hadn't come off. She then asked Leo with slight shock in her voice.

"How could you recover so fast?"

"I have a strong body, my regeneration is faster than a normal slayer."

"Is that so?...

She looked at Leo with a weird gaze and suddenly smiled.

"I didn't introduce myself, my name is Kocho Kanae."

"Leo Heart."

"That's a crude way to introduce yourself."

A slightly imm.a.t.u.r.e but cute voice broke their conversation. Leo looked over and found a young girl wearing Demon Slayer uniform standing near the door. She looked similar to Kanae, only smaller but still cute.

"Who is this kid?"

Leo asked Kanae.

"I am not a kid! Hmph, is that how you treat your saviour? Such a crude man."

Saviour?

Leo looked confused. Giyu said in a hushed tone.

"She was the one that looked after you the entire week."

"Oh... thank you."

Leo nodded to the girl and said thank you. Sabito and Makomo hung their heads and refused to take part in this conversation. Though Leo was m.a.t.u.r.e and calm for his age he was sometimes quite dull when it comes to dealing with certain kind of people, like now.

"Why you little!...

"Shinobu, get me his medicine."

Though she was angry Shinobu still obeyed her sister and took out a box from a cabinet nearby. She handed it to Kanae and stood with her arms crossed.

"Sorry about that, this is my sister Shinobu. She is a little wild but don't you think she is quite cute?"

"Yeah."

The atmosphere suddenly got silent. Sabito and the rest looked at Leo weirdly. Kanae covered her mouth and smiled while Shinobu was fuming. Leo was slightly confused, what? What did I say wrong?

"Leo is Leo."

"He should read more."

"No, he is just dull."

Comments came at him one after the another. Leo ignored them and put the pills into his mouth and drank some water. Kanae warned him not to move needlessly especially his arms, since their injury was heavier.

Soon the room got silent, the four of them were too tired to even speak. All of them laid on their beds and slept.

Leo got an idea of how they were saved, it seems like the Demon Slayer Corps already knew about a demon appearing there. Luckily the dispatched slayers were able to get there in time and treat them.

Looking at the ceiling in a daze Leo checked his surroundings with his spirit sense out of habit and was surprised. His range had increased!

Lost in his thoughts Leo suddenly found that he was able to see his own spirit! When he focused on his spirit a picture appeared inside his mind.

That's... is that my body?

Leo was watching his own body. He focused even more and found himself peering inside his body. When his sight penetrated through the skin and flesh a sight he would never forget appeared before him.

What the?

A sphere of gaseous energy was calmly laying just beneath his naval. Like branches of a tree pathways extended from the sphere and covered his entire body. From his skeleton to his organs to his limbs to his flesh and to his skin, everything was connected by this pathways.

However the sphere of energy was calm like still water. It didn't move, the pathways branching out from it were also devoid of energy. Just as he was in shock and wondering what the hell it was, a stream of information flooded his mind.

Spirit energy... Spirit sense... Spirit control... what a brilliant method!

Leo now understood what Aruha meant. Spirit sense is essentially spirit energy dispersed out of his body, till now he had no way to control it.

However now he could!
