But he didn’t change what he was going to say because of it.
“I’ve already told you about the suffering of learning the ‘Ripple Breathing Method’, why do you still want to learn it?”
Following Lan Xing’s question, Kamado Tanjiro spoke out his thoughts aloud without any hesitation.
“Because I want power!”
“Why do you want power?”
“Because I want to help Nezuko change back to her original form! I also want to be a member of the Demon Slayer Squad just like Saito-san, because after becoming a member of the Demon Slayer Squad, I can protect more people like Sato-san, In this way, there will be fewer people like Nezuko, right?”
Faced with Lan Xing’s rhetorical question, Kamado Tanjiro did not evade at all, and told his reasons without concealment.
Kamado Tanjiro, with his hands on the table, looked straight at Lan Xing.
As Blue Star said before, human eyes are the windows to the soul, and Blue Star can get a lot of information through a person’s eyes, for example, there are excitement, worry and fear in Kamado Tanjiro’s eyes at this time.
There is no need to talk about excitement and worry. As for the fear, it probably came from Satoshi who once told him about the casualty rate of the Demon Slayer Squad, but even so, he still did not flinch in the slightest.
Because there is something more important in his eyes———— Persistence!
Everything he said was not empty words. When he made up his mind to help his sister transform back into a human being, he had enough awareness!
This is the realization that we have no regrets in crossing the ordinary and comfortable life to death!
“Nice eyes.”
Lan Xing’s words made Kamado Tanjiro couldn’t help showing a joyful expression, but at this moment Lan Xing made a move that no one had thought of. He actually punched Kamado Tanjirou’s abdomen violently.
Lan Xing’s movement wasn’t too fast, at least Sato had already figured it out, but just as he was about to make a move, he seemed to remember something but forcibly endured it.
On the contrary, Nezuko, who had always been like a good baby before, suddenly widened her eyes, and even showed blue veins on her forehead and arms due to overuse of muscles.
Her hands grabbed Lan Xing violently, as if to stop Lan Xing from ‘attacking’ Tanjiro Kamado.
It’s a pity that at this moment, Lanxing accelerated suddenly, and hit Tanjiro Kamado in the abdomen with a punch, and at the same time, the other hand grabbed Nezuko’s wrist violently.
Obviously the four of them were drinking tea and chatting before, but the atmosphere in the office suddenly changed in just a moment.
Lan Xing’s punch hit the opponent’s abdomen and even made him feel as if his whole body was going to float in the air. At the same time, the heavy blow to the abdomen made him almost lose consciousness.
But at this moment, a strange breath poured into Lan Xing’s body along the part he attacked…
Chapter 5 The ‘monster’ in the eyes of Blue Star
Blue Star’s sudden attack, Saitu was undoubtedly aware of the abnormality, but because of his trust in Lanxing, he chose to watch from the sidelines. After all, in Sabito’s impression, even if Bluestar did something, it would be against Nezuko. As for Tanjirou Kamado No matter how you look at it, Blue Star doesn’t look like a murderer.
Not only Sato, but Nezuko also noticed Blue Star’s attack and immediately counterattacked, but it was a pity that Blue Star ruthlessly suppressed it in the end.
Lan Xing was not too surprised by this. The only thing that surprised him was that although Kamado Tanjirou did not escape his attack, his eyes changed when he punched, which meant that the opponent had actually He noticed Lan Xing’s fist, but because his body couldn’t keep up with the reaction speed of his brain, he never escaped Lan Xing’s blow.
And in fact, it is true. Kamado Tanjiro did not expect that Lan Xing would suddenly attack him, but he faintly noticed the abnormality at the moment Lan Xing swung his fist. Like meeting a hungry black bear in the heavy snow, he almost instinctively tried to stand in front of his sister.
Unfortunately, he forgot two things.
One thing is that his younger sister is not the same as before at this time, she is no longer the weak girl who can only hide behind her, and Blue Star is also stronger than Black Bear.
Without any resistance, he was punched in the abdomen by Lan Xing. The intense pain made him almost lose consciousness, but at the same time, a strange breath poured into his body from the place where he was hit.
Looking at the dazed Kamado Tanjiro and Kamado Nezuko pressed on the table, Lanxing nodded in satisfaction.
Whether it’s Kamado Tanjiro’s eyes, or the reaction after being hit by the ripple, or Kamado Nezuko’s reaction of trying to protect Kamado Tanjiro, he is very satisfied.
Because Satoshi spends too little time with Lan Xing, he may have sensed Lan Xing’s tenderness hidden under his resolute face, but his understanding of Lan Xing is still not specific enough, so he is worried that Lan Xing will kill Kamado Nezuko.
For Blue Star, it is indeed his instinct to kill monsters that harm humans. After all, whether it is his duty to protect humans as a ‘hunter’ or his understanding of the cruel nature of ‘monsters’ after several confrontations with the enemy, he is in the face of it. No mercy when dealing with monsters.
But at the same time, getting along with countless non-human races made Blue Star realize that the definition of “monster” should not be distinguished by race.
Among vampires, there are those who use humans as bread, and among ghosts, there are girls who just want to protect their older sisters/sisters and live a peaceful life.
So his attitude towards Nezuko Kamado does not depend on her race, but on her attitude towards ‘human beings’.
Lan Xing’s attack just now was the same as what he did when facing Satu. He was testing whether the other party had the talent to learn the ‘ripple breathing method’, and it was also a test for the girl named Zaomen Nezuko, otherwise There was no need for him to attack Kamado Tanjiro at such a slow speed, this was simply to give the opponent time to react.
As far as the result is concerned, it is undoubtedly very successful, whether it is Kamado Tanjirou’s reaction to the ripples in his body, or Nezuko’s behavior of protecting Kamado Tanjirou almost instantly at the moment of his own hands, he is very satisfied.
At the moment of Blue Star’s ‘attack’ Tanjiro Kamado completely lost his breath in an instant, but it was precisely because of this that he could feel the ‘ripple’ running in his body, although it was only for an instant, but when he suddenly After letting out a breath, he also realized that Lan Xing punched himself not at all to attack him.
After all, according to Satoshi, Lan Xing is his teacher, so he should be stronger than Sato, but even though the other party’s blow made him lose his breath instantly, at this time he couldn’t feel any pain at all, as if everything It’s all just an illusion.
After lamenting the power of Lan Xing’s blow just now, Kamado Tanjiro also reacted abruptly. Just now, Nezuko instinctively launched an attack on Lan Xing because he was attacked.
In order to protect his family, Nezuko was attacked by that ‘oni’ and became a ‘oni’, and when he rushed home, he happened to see Sabito fighting a strange guy.
Not long after that guy escaped, another man named Yoshiyuki Tomioka also rushed to his house.
According to the other party, he and Sabito hunted down a powerful ghost and came near their home, and found a ghost attacking humans. Tomioka Yoshiyuki went to deal with the ghost, while Satu continued to chase the other party until they were in the middle of their death. Only then did they discover each other.
Regarding Nezuko, who was attacked by a ghost and turned into a ghost, the two were originally planning to destroy each other. After all, the two members of the “ghost killing team” really know the nature of the “ghost” very well, and even both of them have witnessed it with their own eyes. Witnessed the tragic experience of ‘ghosts’ killing their own family members.
According to them, when a person becomes a ‘ghost’, he is no longer a human being, but another race.
It’s a pity that Kamado Tanjiro didn’t understand these things at the time. He tried his best to protect his sister, but it’s a pity that as an ordinary person, he couldn’t fight against the two of them, and he was easily subdued. It’s just that Nezuko was unexpectedly here. Time attacked them, but what surprised the two of them was that although the awakened Nezuko attacked them, he did not attack Kamado Tanjiro instinctively because of injury like a normal ghost, but instead protected him.
It is precisely because of this that the gentle two decided to believe Tanjiro Kamado’s statement that ‘Nezuko still has humanity’.
In the end, Yoshiyuki Tomioka continued to chase the ‘ghost’, while Sato was inquiring about the ‘ghost’ while taking the two of them back to their teacher for Tanjiro Kamado to practice ‘breathing of water’.
Here is what happened after Kamado Tanjiro, Kamado Nezuko and Sabito met.
After this experience, Kamado Tanjiro also knows very well that the ‘oni attacking humans’ is the target of the ‘demon killing team’.
That’s why he was so terrified when he saw Nezuko actually attacking Blue Star, he yelled almost instinctively.
“Nezuko! Stop! Mr. Blue Star didn’t attack me!!”
Apparently Tanjiro Kamado was trying to tell Bluestar that Nezuko didn’t attack him for no reason.
It’s a pity that although Tanjirou Kamado’s words made Nezuko no longer hostile to Lanxing, she also lost her ability to think logically because of the influence of becoming a “ghost”. It was a wild beast instinctively trying to break free from the uncomfortable feeling of being restrained.
But at this moment, Lan Xing suddenly reached out and touched the opponent’s head.
This weird behavior made everyone present a little unbelievable, but what was even more surprising was that following Lan Xing’s actions, the desire to attack in Nezuko’s eyes was gradually disappearing, until finally she narrowed her eyes slightly…
Chapter 6 Blue Star’s Hand
Lan Xing’s behavior to appease Nezuko surprised Sato and Kamado Tanjiro. After all, in their impression, Nezuko didn’t attack humans casually like ordinary ghosts, but it was limited to normal situations. The ghost doesn’t make any difference.
However, Blue Star was able to control the opponent with one hand when he was angry. Whether it was the reaction speed or the strength, it was eye-catching. Nezuko wrestled head-on.
Not only that, even though Nezuko regained part of her sanity because of Kamado Tanjiro’s call, facing Lan Xing who just ‘attacked’ her, theoretically speaking, the other party shouldn’t return to normal so quickly, and revealed A cat-like expression.
“Mr. Lanxing, do you mean…can you restore Nezuko to normal?”
Kamado Tanjiro’s voice trembled a little. After all, Nezuko was his family to him. He hoped to join the “Demon Killing Squad” to protect more people from more tragedies like himself, but apart from this wish He also made no secret of his desire to help Nezuko return to normal through the “Demon Killing Team”.
If Nezuko can be brought back to normal… he will do whatever it takes!
Facing Kamado Tanjiro’s fiery eyes, Lan Xing shook his head at him.
“I can understand your thoughts, but I’m sorry, I can’t help this child turn back into a human…”
Although Blue Star’s Ripple does have the ability to recover, the reason is the use of ‘life energy’. As long as it is a normal life form, Ripple can heal it, but it is a pity that the other party is not a normal life form. The blood of the ‘ghost’ made Blue Star, if he used Ripple, the opponent would probably be reduced to ashes in an instant like the ‘hand ghost’ that was eliminated before, right?
He’s better at destroying than healing.
Tanjirou Kamado is a very polite child, which can be seen from the fact that he greeted Hestia and Lan Xing proactively after meeting, but at this time, it was about his most important sister, so he couldn’t help asking Get up…even though he can probably guess Lan Xing’s answer.
“Is there really no other way? Mr. Lan Xing, didn’t you calm down Nezuko…”
Facing Kamado Tanjiro’s beseeching eyes, Lan Xing really wanted to tell the other party ‘there is a way’, but it was a pity that he knew that it was pointless to deceive the other party.
“I’m sorry, at least right now I can’t do anything about it. As for what you said about bringing this girl named ‘Ne Douzi’ back to normal, it’s probably because she’s a good boy, so she can feel what I’m thinking…”
In fact, in Blue Star’s view, the most important reason why Nezuko calmed down so quickly is probably that his title of “True Loli Control” is taking effect. At least he doesn’t think that the reason why the other party is obedient is because of himself His head-touching skills are so good, even if his head-touching skills have already been maxed out because of the “devotion” of the Ailu cats, if he has skills, he may have already maxed out.
The reason why he chose to touch the head to appease the other party is purely because Eve usually likes to be touched by him. According to Eve, “Although Lan Xing’s palms are rough, they are very warm and give you a sense of security.”
After Lanxing’s voice fell, Tanjirou Kamado’s expression instantly became a little disappointed, but his good family education made him not make a scene like a brat, but bowed his head and apologized to Lanxing in a very sensible way.
“Sorry to trouble you, Mr. Lan Xing…”
Although Kamado Tanjiro was apologizing to Lan Xing, Lan Xing unconsciously looked at the opponent’s hands.
At this time, his hands were silently clenched and trembling slightly. It was obvious that although the other party tried hard to restrain his emotions, he still couldn’t hide his loss.
The more sensible the other party is, the more Blue Star loves him. After all, what was he doing when he was the other party’s age?
Staying in school all day, although the studies are heavy, but there is no burden other than studies, but the other party has already embarked on an unknown journey to save his sister.
Thinking of this, Lan Xing also stretched out his other hand and placed it on the top of Kamado Tanjiro’s head under Satoshi’s incredulous eyes.
“It’s okay, and you’ve worked hard.”
Lan Xing’s voice was a bit deep, but for some reason, hearing Lan Xing’s voice and feeling the warm touch from the wide palm above his head, Kamado Tanjiro calmed down unconsciously. After calming down, he seemed to understand why Nezuko calmed down at this time.
Not only the temperature of the opponent’s palm, but Lan Xing’s voice was a bit deep and hoarse, but his voice seemed to have a magical power that calmed down his nervous mood.
“Thank you, Mr. Blue Star.”
Seeing that Tanjirou Kamado’s expression had basically returned to normal after raising his head, Lan Xing also withdrew his hand.
But when he saw the expressions of other people in the store, he seemed a little helpless.
Sato is okay, maybe because of his personality, he just looked at the two with a simple smile on his face, but Hestia didn’t have so many scruples, she looked at Lan Xing with a bright smile on her face, because her smile was too bright. For a while, Xingyi couldn’t even tell whether it was because Kamado Tanjiro returned to normal, or because of her own behavior to appease Kamado Tanjirou.
So Blue Star simply chose to ignore the other party.
Although Lan Xing still had a serious face, for Hestia who was already familiar with Lan Xing, this slightly childish behavior of Lan Xing actually made her smile brighter and brighter.
Because she likes the current Blue Star very much.
Although when she first met Lan Xing, the other party’s scarred but incomparably gentle heart was very attractive to her, but she still prefers the current Lan Xing.
It’s a pity that Lanxing selectively ignored this, and even had to choose to change the subject in order to cover up his embarrassment caused by being seen through.
“Although I can’t help this girl called ‘Nezuko’ return to normal, I can feel her attachment and tenderness to you, and I believe that even if she can’t restore her normal human physique, she won’t become a ‘monster’ .”
Blue Star’s words made Kamado Tanjirou unconsciously reveal a bright smile.
After all, as an elder brother, he believes in his sister from the bottom of his heart, but it is a pity that most people don’t believe him. Even if he is strong enough and will not give up because of this, it will be more important if he can get the recognition and support of others. it is good.
“However, just in case, I hope you can practice well regarding the ‘ripple breathing method’.”
Lanxing’s words made Kamado Tanjirou unconsciously stunned for a moment.
Ripple breathing?
Did the other party decide to teach themselves?
“Can you really teach me?”
Because he was too excited, Kamado Tanjiro couldn’t help talking to himself. After all, according to his original plan, he should follow Sato to the other master’s house to learn the “Water Breathing Method”, but he didn’t expect to learn it first ‘Ripple Breathing’.
Blue Star also gave an affirmative answer to this.
Seeing Lanxing’s nod, Kamado Tanjirou’s smile became brighter…
Chapter 7 Kamado Tanjiro with a sudden change in style
Tanjiro Kamado couldn’t help but smile at Lan Xing’s words, but then he couldn’t help hesitating.
“That… Is it really okay to teach me? Brother Sabito once told me that the ‘ripple breathing method’ is a very rare ‘breathing method’, and it is unique among the entire ghost killing team…”
Kamado Tanjiro’s family is very simple. The family relies on cutting firewood on the mountain and selling it. It is precisely because of this that he seems a little at a loss when faced with Blue Star’s kindness. After all, it is the first time he has obtained such a “rare” ‘s things.
“The ‘ripple breathing method’ was born to fight against ‘monsters’ and protect the continuation of human beings. It is not something special. If you feel embarrassed, then prove it to me.”
But in the face of the hesitant Kamado Tanjirou, Lan Xing seemed extremely active, but his words made Kamado Tanjirou confused.
“Proof? What?”
“Prove that my vision is correct.”
The seemingly resolute Lan Xing once had hysteria and despair, but only he knew it, so he had a good impression of Kamado Tanjiro who worked hard to save his sister, and the character he showed afterwards made Lan Xing even more so. Star decided to teach each other ‘ripple breathing’.
After all, as he himself said, the “ripple breathing method” was originally born to fight against the legendary monsters. Instead of leaving it on the shelf, it is better to teach it to someone worthy of entrustment. idea.
Lan Xing’s words made Kamado Tanjirou, who was a little at a loss at first, stunned for a moment, and then his eyes widened unconsciously. He originally wanted to refuse again, but when he saw Lan Xing’s gentle and trusting eyes, , and his expression also became firm.
“Please give me a test! I will definitely pass your test, Mr. Lan Xing!”
