Where should I go after being transported to Demon Slayer?

"I want to destroy Muzan and save my sister who has become a demon, but I might die before I achieve my goal. However, I believe that Brother Tenichi can definitely destroy him."

"After all, Brother Tenichi is very strong. He extended our lives so that we could destroy the Upper Moon demons. If we continue to live, we can also destroy Muzan in the future."

Tanjiro held Kotetsu's hand.

"Let's work together."

Xiao Tie nodded with tears in his eyes.

"I don't want to see the doll break, but I'm determined. The combat training will probably continue into the night, and I'll be mentally prepared to see it through to the end."

The two walked along the path, chatting idly.

"Little Tie, so you're ten years old now."

"Um"

"My brother..."

Muichiro walked past the two of them.

Tanjiro turned to look at Muichiro with some shock.

"Is it over yet?"

Muichiro nodded.

"It's over. The practice went well, but I'm sorry I damaged the doll a little."

"Oh, I remember now, my knife is broken."

"Could you please help me reforge one?"

Xiao Tie stood there blankly.

"I don't have that kind of skill; please find someone else."

Muichiro nodded and turned to walk towards the village.

The raven flew to his shoulder, then turned to look at Tanjiro and exhaled.

That crow was full of malice and looked down on me particularly.

"Xiao Tie, let's go."

Xiao Tie nodded.

The two continued walking forward.

It suddenly started raining, and the two of them quickly ran towards the doll.

Looking at the doll with only facial injuries, Xiao Tie breathed a sigh of relief.

"It's not broken yet, only the face is damaged."

Tanjiro nodded. "Let's see if he can move first, just in case. Let's try it out."

Xiao Tie nodded, and Tanjiro picked up the doll and wound it up.

Xiao Tie looked at the motionless doll and felt a little sad.

"It really is broken?"

Just then, the sound of a clockwork mechanism was heard.

The doll slowly raised its head, assuming a fighting stance.

"Great! He can move now, Xiao Tie."

Tanjiro excitedly raised his hand.

"Yes, Tanjiro, please use it to train hard and become stronger than that pretentious brat."

"I will do everything I can to help you."

Xiao Tie's face was contorted with anger; after all, he had told him to be careful several times, yet the metal still almost broke.

A clap of thunder sounded.

Tanjiro stared blankly at the particularly angry Tetsuya.

"Okay, okay, don't be so angry."

"Xiao Tie, what did you just say?"

Xiao Tie repeated the sentence.

"Let's start training now."

The puppet instantly came to life.

With a scream from Tanjiro.

……

Butterfly sat in Tianyi's arms.

"Is it thundering outside? Why is it so loud?"

Butterfly tilted her head and looked at Tianyi.

Tianyi nodded. If he guessed correctly, that scream just now should have been Tanjiro's!

Butterfly poked Tianyi's face with her hand.

"Why are you standing here in a daze? Is something on your mind? Can you tell me?"

"That clap of thunder sounded familiar, but I just can't remember where it came from."

Butterfly Shinobu snuggled closer to Tenichi. "If you can't remember, don't think about it. It's too hard on your brain."

Tianyi nodded. "It's getting late, you should get some rest too."

Shinobu nodded and fell asleep in Tenichi's arms.

"Tanjiro has already started training, it seems that day is not far away."

After turning off the light, Tianyi gently placed Shinobu Kocho in another quilt. After all, she was pregnant and her belly was growing bigger, so the two of them couldn't sleep together anymore; it wouldn't be good for her to be pressed down on him.

The scene returns to the morning.

Yoriichi Zero, wielding six wooden clubs, relentlessly unleashed his attacks on Tanjiro.

He was beaten so badly that he couldn't fight back at all.

Tanjiro rolled and dodged, the wooden sticks brushing past him one by one.

He was so frightened that he rolled even faster.

"I'm going to die, I can't hold on to six hands."

"But I can't downgrade either, so just bear with it. How can it feel like you're killing a ghost? You don't have to pay for it if you break it."

Kotetsu gave Tanjiro a sincere smile.

But to Tanjiro, it was the low chuckle of a demon.

"Tanjiro, you need to become stronger, and then tell him this: (That's it, you piece of trash.) (Your hair is too long, cut it off, you seaweed head.) (Short, ugly monster with short legs.) (Commit seppuku, you shameless bastard.)"

Tanjiro's mouth gaped open in shock as he stared at Kotetsu.

"You were probably joking about what you just said, right?"

Xiao Tie shook his head. "I just can't stand his arrogant attitude."

"Tell me again quickly, or I'm afraid you'll forget."

Tanjiro shook his head firmly, and Kotetsu quickly reached out to grab him.

Just then, Yoriichi Zero charged over again, carrying a wooden stick.

Tanjiro narrowly dodged the attack, then turned to look at the doll.

"Such speed! At this rate, I'll be hit very soon."

Tanjiro thought of Muichiro, watching him easily dodge and retaliate.

Tanjiro immediately resolved, "I can't lose to him, I have to become stronger too."

After fending off the incoming wooden stick and repelling Tanjiro, the stick struck Tanjiro in the stomach.

He was sent flying.

Tanjiro clutched his stomach in pain.

"Tanjiro, is this all you've got? Getting beaten half to death by a puppet, that's so useless."

"Get up quickly. You have to try. I'll say it again, lift your head."

Tanjiro struggled to his feet.

"You need to learn to observe other people's actions, make judgments, and then act. That's why you can't win, understand?"

"It's a wonder you've survived this long in the Demon Slayer Corps; you're lacking in every aspect."

Tanjiro's eyes rolled back as he knelt quietly, listening.

"I will point out every single one of your shortcomings, and you won't get any food until you solve the problems I'm talking about."

Tanjiro nodded. "Yes."

"Is dinner ready?"

Tenichi came to Shinobu's side and patted her head.

"Get up and eat, wake up quickly, my dear wife."

Shinobu Kocho opened her eyes, propped herself up on the blanket with her hands, and slowly sat up.

Tianyi fed her bite by bite, while Shinobu Kocho wolfed down her food.

"With my husband around, I'm always taken care of, and I'm very happy with my life."

Tianyi pretended to cough.

"cough"

"Honey, what did you just say? I didn't hear you clearly."

When Shinobu saw Tenichi's mischievous grin, she immediately became obedient.

She slowly stood up and skillfully put on her clothes, as she could no longer wear many of them due to her pregnancy.

Tenichi stepped forward, touched Shinobu's belly, and smiled slightly.
