Demon Slayer: I will play the ancestor of the Flame Pillar

The first time he came to Tokyo, he saw the bright lights and the bustling streets.

"Ah, Tokyo is really prosperous."

Tanjiro, who came to Tokyo for the first time, looked at the bright lights and the bustling streets in front of him, looking like a country boy who had never seen the world.

After filling his stomach with a few bowls of udon noodles, Tanjiro began to look for the meeting place mentioned by Mr. Rengoku.

"You can't use your eyes to see, you have to use your nose to smell, and find the most dreamy smell in the air."

Tanjiro sniffed hard, and his eyes lit up.

Found it!

It was indeed unique, exactly the same as the smell on Mr. Rengoku that day.

Following the guidance of the smell, he came to a large mansion, and the next moment the wall shook like water.

Under Tanjiro's horrified eyes, a white hand stretched out and pulled him into the wall.

Then a man and a woman appeared in front of Tanjiro, the man looked serious, and the girl smiled playfully.

"Shh~ It's Tanjiro Kamado, right? Brother Heng Shoulang mentioned you. Next, let's take you to see Miss Tamayo."

Hey, hey, this is totally wrong.

Tanjiro blinked his confused eyes, and was forcibly led into the house by the enthusiastic girl with a confused look on his face.

After a while, a dignified and beautiful woman opened the door and sat opposite Tanjiro, and also offered a cup of hot tea attentively.

Holding the hot tea in both hands and blowing it, Tanjiro Kamado felt that his life was very disillusioned at this moment.

Although he did not feel any fishy smell, and even felt very refreshing, there is no doubt that the sense of smell will not lie.

Aside from the girl who was so familiar with him and pulled him away with a happy face, the guy who was staring at him coldly and the beauty in front of him were definitely ghosts, right?

Why, why did I, who had just embarked on the road of ghost hunting, encounter such a magical thing! ?

Tanjiro almost wanted to hold his head in his hands and sigh to the sky.

Didn’t Master Urokodaki and Senior Brother Giyuu say that ghosts who overcome their instincts are rare? Even as water pillars, they have only seen Nezuko in their lives?

So what is going on in front of him? Are these two ghosts and a person playing a loving family?

Then what is the role of the ghost hunter?

Is he the third villain who destroys the warm family?

After joining the Demon Slayer Corps, he also vaguely learned that the mysterious Mr. Rengoku and the incarnation of Bishamonten seemed to have such strange rumors.

Although he didn’t take it seriously, the so-called strange combination of people, gods, and ghosts still made Tanjiro a little confused and uneasy.

Anyway, it's hard to judge...

"Relax, it's normal to feel dizzy when we first meet."

The woman in front of him spoke softly to comfort him, and then took out an envelope from her kimono and handed it to Tanjiro.

"As you can see, I'm Tamayo. This is the envelope that Lord Rengoku asked me to bring to you. I'm sure you'll understand after reading it."

"Thank you, Miss Tamayo."

After politely thanking him, Tanjiro carefully unfolded the envelope.

"Kamado boy, although it was a little slower than I expected, you still successfully passed the trial and killed the evil spirit with blood demon art. Now congratulations on coming to the evil spirit house~"

Hehehe.

Tanjiro was a little speechless, but this bad tone did sound like what that person should say.

"I'm kidding you. Miss Tamayo and Yushiro are both kind ghosts and are proficient in medicine. Whether Nezuko can become a human depends on them."

Sure enough, thinking of the refreshing breath of the two ghosts, Tanjiro nodded secretly, and his worries were relieved a lot.

"I'm sorry I can't meet you. Muzan Kibutsuji must be planning something. The power of ghosts has been shrinking in the past two years. I can hardly see him at all. I'm trying my best to find his trace."

Are the ghosts disappearing?

Tanjiro was shocked, but according to Master Urokodaki, the death rate of swordsmen in the team has indeed decreased a lot.

"What you need to do is to improve your strength and collect as much ghost blood as possible to speed up the development of human transformation medicine."

Finally seeing the dawn, Tanjiro's eyes lit up and he was a little excited.

"But be careful, because in the world now, in addition to the Twelve Ghost Moons who are still active..."

Tanjiro continued to read down with a solemn face. The last few big words were heavily inked, and it seemed that the person who wrote them was also confused.

"There are almost no ghosts to kill!"

Bang!

The gate outside the courtyard was violently blown open, and a handball rushed straight towards the two people sitting opposite each other.

"Water Breathing, First Form, Water Surface Slash!"

The black Sun Blade was wrapped with water, and with one strike, it split the attacking handball into two pieces. Tanjiro stared at the two demons outside with a serious face.

I was careless. I was immersed in Mr. Purgatory's letter just now, and I didn't notice the smell of ghosts in the air.

"Look what I found?"

The scissor-headed demon with eyes in the palm of his hand showed a weird smile, and the female demon with six arms next to him also responded enthusiastically.

"It turned out to be the famous betrayer Tamayo. I didn't expect a few little mice to hide here."

Tanjiro looked serious and protected Tamayo behind him.

"Are you the Twelve Kizuki?"

The handball demon and the arrow demon's eyes lit up, and they rushed to admit it.

"That's right! We are the Twelve Kizuki!"

Tanjiro took a deep breath, and his heart gradually sank, and the feeling of despair gradually accumulated.

He subconsciously put down the backpack.

Although there is no smell of invincible despair, facing the two Twelve Kizuki, I am afraid that only the Pillar can win.

We must delay as much time as possible to let Miss Tamayo and the others take Nezuko away.

Tanjiro clenched the Sun Blade and was ready to sacrifice himself.

Come on Tanjiro, you can do it!

"Well, actually you are not the Twelve Kizuki."

At the moment when the arrow was on the string and had to be shot, Miss Tamayo, who was sitting still behind, raised a faint questioning voice.

"It's really sad, but you were probably deceived by Muzan. There will be writing in the eyes of the Twelve Kizuki, but there is no writing in your eyes, so you are not the Twelve Kizuki."

The handball ghost and the arrow ghost looked at each other in a daze, and there was some confusion in their eyes.

Ah?

I don't know, Lord Muzan said so.

"I knew it would be like this..."

Tanjiro's mouth twitched, he sighed, and then spoke confidently again.

"Then, leave it all to me."

Tanjiro finally put his heart at ease, and chose to believe Miss Tamayo's words without any suspense.

Why?

Besides Miss Tamayo's doubts were reasonable.

Sure enough, Mr. Rengoku was too unreliable...
