“I didn’t expect that the original idea would actually succeed.”

"The Blade of Despair? Well, I want a pair of armor even more."

However, a discovery made Kurosawa choke. He held the Blade of Despair tightly and saw that in the skill column, the suffix of the Water Calling Sword had changed.

Water-calling sword type, second level (can be upgraded).

"I see... Gray White can only improve the things that belong to me. When I can condense the blade, I can improve the corresponding abilities."

"I, Kurosawa, will be a sword-type genius from now on, haha!"

Kurosawa looked at the Blade of Despair in his hand and couldn't help laughing out loud. He had a hunch that he would soon have the power of a real striped swordsman, instead of just having the corresponding physique.

………………

Three days later, Kurosawa stood on the summit platform in the morning light at Mount Sagi. His upper body was naked, and the jet-black blade in his hand slashed out one after another in the shape of a water-calling sword.

Cut through the water!

Kurosawa's slash was like a violent waterfall falling, the sound was terrifying, and the sharp sword light shot out from the blade, slashing towards a huge boulder more than ten meters in front.

The sword slash struck the boulder, failing to penetrate it, leaving only a decent mark that was neither deep nor shallow.

"...Only superficial, weak and powerless..."

Kurosawa stepped forward and touched the scars he had made with his knife. Veins appeared on his forehead.

I thought that after getting the Blade of Despair, I could try to practice the sword form again, and maybe I could improve it on my own. However, the reality was very cruel, and Kurosawa's sword form was still unsightly.

In fact, it's not that weak. It's just that compared to his current level with markings, his use of the sword type is too average.

For example, Kurosawa can skillfully use the sword form, but it is just like the skills used in playing games. He just follows the template and is difficult to adapt. Most of the time it is very rigid.

"Hmph, if it weren't for the lack of potential, I could level the mountain with one blow."

After comforting himself, Kurosawa put on his clothes casually and looked at the rising sun in the distance that had just risen above the horizon, bright but soft and not dazzling.

"Junior brothers and sisters have all gone out to perform their missions. This Sawu Mountain has become deserted now."

Now in Saagiri Mountain, there are only Nintaki Sakonji, Iguro Kobanai, and Kurosawa. Kurosawa just came back last night and did not meet Nintaki Sakonji.

When he arrived last night, Rintaki Sakonji had already fallen asleep. Kurosawa did not disturb him, but ran to the top of the mountain excitedly to develop various postures of the Blade of Despair.

"I don't know what the master will think of my stripes."

Touching his cheek, Kurosawa seemed to see a series of strange dark textures. He had already seen what he looked like at this time. It was not bad. The markings had an eerie beauty and did not reduce his appearance.

And it’s a lot more ostentatious.

With a grasp of his hand, the Blade of Despair turned into a handful of flames and returned to Kurosawa's body.

Then, humming a relaxing tune, he walked down the mountain step by step.

In the early morning, there is fog covering the mountainside above the mountainside. This fog will not completely dissipate until noon. Now, due to the sunlight, there are many golden-like lights in the Sawu Mountain.

Mi floats and floats in the mist, like a dream.

In front of the beautiful scenery, his strength has also been greatly improved, and Kurosawa is in a good mood.

He did not speed up his pace, but leisurely admired the beautiful scenery of Mount Sagi. He walked for more than half an hour before reaching the mountainside. Here, the fog in Mount Sagi was gone. It had lost its characteristics and looked just like an ordinary mountain.

There is an open space halfway up the mountain, which is where Hinataki Saru recently trained his disciples. The location where Kurosawa and others live is at the foot of Mount Saagiri, that is, near the foot of the mountain.

Still far away, Kurosawa saw a familiar strong figure.

It was now around six o'clock in the morning, and Ninataki Saji had already gotten up and was sternly teaching Iguro Kobanai.

In the morning, as the beginning of a new day, it is usually the best time to learn breathing techniques. Kurosawa could see Iguro Kobanai sitting cross-legged on the ground with a look of pain on his face, and Ningtaki Sakon stood next to him from time to time.

The shot clicked on Ihei Xiaoba's body.

Seeing this familiar scene, Kurosawa smiled.

He remembered when he was a child.

Because the soul traveled to another world, Kurosawa did not deliberately hide it. When he was still a baby, he showed a sense of maturity that was different from ordinary children. He was well-behaved, obedient, not crying, and his eyes were calm and mature.

But Ningtaki Sasa didn't notice anything strange about Kurosawa at all recently, or maybe because he had never been in contact with children, he might have thought that all children were like Kurosawa.

At that time, Nintaki Sakonji was still in his prime. As an active member of the Demon Slayer Corps, Mizuhashi had a very heavy task of killing ghosts, but Nintaki Sakonji never bothered others. Most of the time, he would hold the baby Kurosawa in his left hand and hold the baby in his right hand.

The Sun Lun Sword killed every ghost.

Kurosawa's lack of reaction to the bloodshed in the first battle was also related to this experience.

When Kurosawa grew older and reached the age where he could practice breathing techniques, Nintaki Saru was doing the same thing as he is doing for Iguro Kobanai now, helping him regulate his breath. His expression was stern, but his technique was very gentle, helping Kurosawa relax.

Many physical pains are caused by practicing breathing methods.

When I first started practicing breathing techniques, the breath in my body was violent and my blood vessels seemed to be bursting, which was very uncomfortable.

Because Kurosawa knew the danger of demons destroying the world, he practiced very hard. Many times he reached the limit of his body and almost fell into coma. Ningtaki Saji didn't say anything or stop Kurosawa, but often continued to help him adjust after he fell asleep.

breath.

Kurosawa often wakes up refreshed the next day, while Sanotaki often has dark circles under his mask.

Walking not far away, Nintaki Sakonji also saw Kurosawa approaching, raised his head and glanced at him, and then focused on beating Iguro Kobanai's body again.

The memories stopped and Kurosawa burst into laughter.

When watching anime in his previous life, the word "bond" appeared many times, and Kurosawa's bond in this world is with the people of Mount Saagiri, especially his master Rintagaki Sakonji.

"I heard that one sign of old people is that they like to remember the past."

"Am I already old?"

"No, men will remain young until they die. I, Kurosawa, will always be eighteen."

Eighteen-year-old Kurosawa noticed that Nintaki Sasa hadn't looked at him carefully recently, so he put on the Disaster Fox Mask that he had been wearing all his life, pulled down his sleeves, and covered his patterned arms.

He wanted to give Nintaki Sakon a scare, no, a surprise.

Walking into Ningtaki Sakonji, Kurosawa coughed lightly: "Master, long time no see."

Glancing at the disconcerting apprentice, Nintaki Sakonji said: "Your mission has been less than a week... Judging from your appearance, the mission has not been completed easily."

"Strength still needs to be improved."

Kurosawa's clothes hadn't been changed yet, they were torn and torn by tired bloodshot wounds, and there were shocking traces of battle everywhere.

Those words were said, but Kurosawa could hear it, and Nintaki Sakon breathed a sigh of relief for the first time. He had been worried about himself, and was relieved after seeing that he had returned safely.

"Of course, the other party is Guiyue."

"Onizuki?" Hinataki Sakonji's tone sounded surprised, and then he turned to face Kurosawa. After a pause, he continued: "Are you sure?"

"The second half of the fifth is written in the eyes, which is the symbol of the ghost moon. There will never be any ghosts pretending to be it, and the blood ghost technique is quite powerful."

"I didn't expect that you really met Kiyue and managed to escape unscathed..." Ningtaki Sasa was a little distracted recently.

The hidden wounds on his body were caused by a battle with a Shigetsuki Onizuki when he was young. At first, he was in a situation where he was almost certain to die. However, Nintaki Sasa finally defeated the opponent by breaking through at the last moment of danger. It was also because of his achievements in killing Onizuki that he soon became the

Climb the water column.

Kurosawa grinned and flicked his fingers: "I, Kurosawa, am the man destined to kill the Ghost King. As I said before, a mere ghost moon can be destroyed with a snap of my fingers."

At the same time, due to the large movements of his body, the markings on Kurosawa's wrists were exposed, and Sakon Taki noticed it.

His eyes narrowed, and then he noticed that Kurosawa had covered most of his body.
Chapter completed!
