Time Conjecture × Parting Sorrow

"Clatter~"

Just a window away.

Roy ignored him and simply turned off the bedside lamp.

The room immediately plunged into darkness...

The Sun-Earring Boy told Little Gold to wake him up if anything happened, and planned to conduct an experiment while he was falling asleep.

The "Curse" reminded him... Ever since awakening his Nen Ability "Gate of Cognition," Roy had been ignoring one crucial issue: time!

It seems like there's a cycle of Hunter x Demon Slayer one day, but is it possible that the cycle is expanding to one day for Hunter Demon Slayer, two days... three days... or even four days for Demon Slayer?

If possible, it would mean that Roy could race against time, accelerate his progress in Strategy Guide the Demon Slayer world without affecting reality, and further speed up his improvement of his strength!

With this thought in mind, Roy placed his hands together on his lower abdomen and closed his eyes.

Demon Slayer: World of Demon Slayer.

After seeing Giyu Tomioka off that very night.

Urokodaki Sakonji lay on the kang (heated brick bed), while Roy slept soundly in the corner.

Inside the small wooden house, the eerie wind gradually subsided, perhaps sensing something. Urokodaki Sakonji felt a lack of companionship, a growing sense of loneliness, and what was missing was... Sabito and Makoto.

Tonight, a gap suddenly opened up in the Mount Sagiri, allowing the bright moon to cast its Moonlight upon the mountain.

Sabito and Makomo, unusually, didn't stay inside. Instead, they went up to the roof. One held his katana, straightened his back, and admired the moonlight, while the other curled up on the roof, hugged his knees, and looked up at the stars... Quietly, neither of them spoke.

"Whoosh~" A mountain breeze blew by, and it wasn't as cold as the dead of winter...

Makomo's amber eyes reflected the bright moonlight. Hearing the faint snores of Roy coming from inside, she said somberly, "Tell me, if we Request Eiichiro not to kill that guy, do you think he'll agree?"

So what if it happens, and so what if it doesn't?

Seito opened his right hand, pinching a wisp of Moonlight; how could he not know what the girl was thinking?

Giyu is gone, and Eiichiro will be soon too. The Demon Slayer Corps Selection is just around the corner. Even if Eiichiro holds back and doesn't kill that guy, there will be Eijiro... Eisaburo... Eishiro to deal with him.

In short, the Demon Slayer Corps is intolerant of any imperfections. If it weren't for the fact that they were raising demons to train younger swordsmen, that guy and all the Demon of Mount Fujikasane would have been wiped out long ago!

"The world belongs to the Human Realm; be prepared to disappear."

The fox Sun-Earring Boy's words were somewhat cruel, but he knew the principle that a short pain is better than a long one. For an innocent girl like Makomo, hurting her once was much better than tormenting her for a long time.

Makomo buried her head in her knees. "Don't worry, I won't say anything stupid."

"Everyone died because of that guy, I won't selfishly Request Eiichiro to go easy on me..."

You're wrong.

"Whimper"

A cold wind swirled and flew up to the roof... Makomo heard the noise and looked up to see Shinsuke and Fukuda... Everyone rushed to the roof...

He stood silently beside her and said, "It's because no one wants to leave."

"It was Eiichiro gave everyone hope. If we had to choose in the end, who would be the one to end our lives..."

Sabito loosened his grip, letting the sliver of Moonlight into the night, and calmly said, "I choose Eiichiro."

"I choose him too!" Shinsuke casually and nonchalantly, "Anyway, we'll all be traveling together, so we won't be lonely on the way."

"Who would want to go with you?" Fukuda spat at Shinsuke with disdain. "You'd better stay away from me."

"No way, I'm going to stick with you!"

"Heh heh, is that so... I think we shouldn't wait for Eiichiro, I'll kill you right now!"

"Come on, if you dare!"

"Whoosh!" The two wrestled together, stirring up gusts of cold wind... all thanks to their antics and antics...

Makomo's expression softened. She looked up at the moon and silently prayed that it would set a little later, even just a minute later. At least she could stay in this world a little longer, with her master, with Eiichiro, with this wonderful world, and cherish those moments a little longer...

inside the house.

Urokodaki Sakonji, staring at the roof beams with his eyes open, unable to fall asleep for a long time.

He endured the night, and as the first hint of dawn appeared on the horizon, he got dressed and, taking advantage of the sliver of light, went to the river and caught a few fish. As he walked home, he said, oblivious to everyone around him, "Child, there's no need to be reluctant."

"My master doesn't have many years left to live. He'll come down to find you then."

Makomo had seen him come out earlier, so she floated down from the roof and followed Urokodaki Sakonji, her small feet covering his big feet, and slowly approaching the familiar Small Wooden Cabin.

At one point, she stopped, tears welling up in her eyes without her noticing... She forced a smile and said, "Okay, Master."

He took a deep breath and followed. Just then, the red sun rose on the horizon, and the morning glow filled the sky, shining through a corner of the paper window onto Roy's peaceful face.

The Sun-Earring Boy escaped the Hunter world through "Deep Sleep" and arrived in the Demon Slayer world... He opened his eyes groggily and immediately looked at the back of his hand... The back of his hand was smooth and did not show any "marks", so he breathed a sigh of relief.

It seems the [Curse] only affects his "lifespan" and cannot interfere with his Nen Ability," which is undoubtedly good news.

"You're awake. We're having sashimi this morning." Urokodaki Sakonji was busy in the kitchen as usual.

"Alright." Roy glanced around but didn't see Giyu Tomioka... Sabito, arms crossed and leaning against a pillar, noticed his confusion and said, "Your Giyu brother Giyuu left last night. We'll probably see each other again soon after you leave today."

"Did my senior brother know I was leaving today?"

Roy glanced over unexpectedly and was surprised to find that everyone was there today. Even the usually quarrelsome Shinsuke brothers Shinsuke and Fukuda were sitting quietly on separate beams, their usual clamor gone.

Sabito smiled and said, "Master said there's nothing more he can teach you. From now on, you'll have to rely on yourself when you go down the mountain."

What about the final test?

"Even Senior Brother Giyu was defeated by you, what's the point of the final test?" Makomo seemed to have recovered her energy, rolled her eyes at Roy, and said, "Eiichiro, are you going to split Mount Sagiri in two?"

"Haha, who knows?" Shinsuke swung down and put his arm around Roy's shoulder. "If this guy keeps training, it's not impossible for him to split Mount Sagiri in two with a single strike."

3

"Hehehe..." Teasing sounds gradually rose.

Roy chuckled and chimed in, "If that day ever comes, I hope all my senior brothers and sisters will be my witnesses."

"I... we? I'm afraid we won't live to see that day..."

The Sun-Earring Boy's words seemed to Shizune the room, the teasing abruptly ceasing, and even Urokodaki Sakonji, who was scaling a river fish in the kitchen, fell silent...

The old man paused, his knife still, and let out a soft sigh...

Suddenly, the Sun-Earring Boy said, "How could you not see it?"

"If I said I had a way to guarantee that all my senior brothers and sisters would see this, I wonder..."

Are you willing to give it a try, senior brothers and sisters?

"Swish"
