Chapter 31

~5 min read 922 words

【

The disgust that overwhelmed brotherly love instantly grew wantonly due to the 'transgression' of crossing classes!

This day, Yoriichi, who was always watching his brother's cultivation from the sidelines, picked up a bamboo sword for the first time amidst the casual jokes of his father's subordinates.

Michikatsu just watched from the side.

His younger brother only knows the formulas and techniques of holding a sword, just playing around.

A gust of wind swept past Michikatsu's eyes; in the moment the black shadow flickered, Yoriichi had already arrived in front of his father's subordinate!

"Bang—", a dull sound rang out four times in an instant, and then in front of the seven-year-old child, that strong and skilled samurai was like a clumsy target, collapsing to the ground without any resistance!

Even the bamboo sword in his hand was split in two, breaking in front of Michikatsu.

When Michikatsu came to his senses, everything was settled; he opened his mouth, his eyes horrified, he wanted to say something, but he couldn't say anything at this moment!

A huge abyss struck, as if to swallow him whole!!!

Just now... what happened...? His younger brother, that weakling...?!!

Only then did Michikatsu understand that years of hard work were a joke in front of his younger brother at this moment!!!

That subordinate he had never defeated once, now fell easily into his hands.

Absurd... how absurd!!!

【Orochimaru: "Wonderful! As a seven-year-old child, both his intuition and combat reaction are beyond imagination! A person born strong?"】

【Gabriel: "I seem to understand a little why he is called a god."】

【Uzumaki Naruto: "Too cool! What is this move called, knocking down the big idiot on the opposite side in one go!"】

【Kamado Tanjiro: "Is this... Yoriichi-san?"】

【Miyamoto Musashi: "Wonderful, if he continues to grow, maybe one day he will break through 'emptiness'."】

【Mihawk: "Sure enough, I wasn't wrong; this guy is a natural favorite of swordsmanship."】

【Mahito: "Hehe~ does anyone care about that little guy? Looks like he's about to shatter."】

Demon Slayer World

"That's it...!", a flash of anger flashed in Kokushibo's eyes.

Why didn't you show such talent from the beginning?!

Why hide it, and why did it have to be my brother!

Demon Slayer Corps Butterfly Mansion

"Oh! I feel like Yoriichi-san was stronger than me when he was seven!", Agatsuma Zenitsu exclaimed.

"Don't feel, he just was," Inosuke said, picking his nose.

"Ah, you guy!"

"... As long as you have powerful strength, you can protect your family, right, Yoriichi-san?", Tanjiro showed a faint smile on his face, happy for Yoriichi who found his direction.

It's just... Tanjiro hesitated to speak.

Why, as Yoriichi-san's brother, is Michikatsu-san's state of mind like this?

Shouldn't brothers love their younger brothers?

【

A seven-year-old child beating a samurai unconscious in four moves reached his father's ears immediately.

But after that, Yoriichi gave up the idea of becoming a samurai because he hated the feeling of beating others.

Michikatsu still held a glimmer of hope; perhaps Yoriichi just mastered the secret of becoming strong?

After repeated questioning, Yoriichi told the truth, but Yoriichi's words exceeded his understanding.

In Yoriichi's eyes, all living things are transparent; observing the movement of the lungs, the direction of the bones, the contraction of the muscles, the flow of blood.

This transparent world was born with him.

And this perfect ability made everything possible to achieve easily.

【Three-Body Leader: "This... how is it possible? Could it be that this Tsugikuni Yoriichi is a higher-dimensional existence? Otherwise, why can he see the world directly from a four-dimensional perspective?"】

【Uzui Tengen: "Gorgeous! It's really too gorgeous! Gorgeous transparency, gorgeous combat awareness, and this gorgeous talent that makes me unable to look directly at it!"】

【Mihawk: "Sure enough, a natural powerhouse! If there's a chance, I can compare swordsmanship!"】

【Gamamaru: "If placed in our world, it would probably be another Child of Prophecy."】

【Jiraiya: "What is the mission of such a powerful existence? What is he living for?"】

【Ubuyashiki Kiriya: "It's demons, man-eating demons led by the Demon King Kibutsuji Muzan."】

【Orochimaru: "Hiss~ demons must have some unusual abilities."】

【Kochou Shinobu: "Incredibly strong, with various strange abilities; except for cutting off their heads with Nichirin swords or exposing them to sunlight, they won't die no matter what."】

【Doma: "That's right~ Muzan-sama is the strongest existence!"】

【Albedo: "Heh, ignorant idiot, but just the lowest-class trash among the undead branches, and you deserve to call yourself the strongest in front of Ainz Ooal Gown-sama?"】

【

Whenever swordsmanship was mentioned, Yoriichi always looked lonely; compared to swordsmanship, he preferred to play with his brother with kites.

Michikatsu's eyes gradually became hollow; this huge gap made him swallowed by the abyss bit by bit.

So, until now, the 'pity' he had shown as a strong man was just wishful thinking.

And the attention he had exchanged with endless pain and sweat was as small and humble as a firefly in the light that Yoriichi inadvertently bloomed.

Just like dust...

They both understood that the father would make the right choice, and the situations of the two had already reversed.

It was also during that time that his mother died of illness; Yoriichi told his brother the news and said he would go to the temple early.

Yoriichi took out the short flute from his arms; he looked at the wooden flute extremely gently, "I will treat this flute given by Brother as Brother, and never give up."

The child bowed respectfully and left this home that had no warmth.
