Pillar Destroyer Call Me Captain

Chapter 33 Tanjiro's Tenderness
After half a sound.

Holding the prostitute's head with one hand, Bai Ye walked past Tanjirou expressionlessly as if dragging a sack, and said to him:
"Tanjiro, wait here for a while, I'll deal with her."

The ghost's blood is like the dye of graffiti, turning the gray-brown ground into an artist's masterpiece.

Shocked by Bai Ye's terrifying actions, Tanjiro suddenly came back to his senses, and hurriedly shouted loudly:
"Please... please wait a moment, Big Brother Bai Ye!"

"Ok?"

Bai Ye turned around and asked puzzledly:

"What's wrong, Tanjirou?"

"she……"

Seeing the dying prostitute, Tanjiro's tone suddenly hesitated.

Because at this time, he had already smelled a breath of resentment from the fallen prostitute.

Hate the world, hate humans, hate herself...

What a painful lament that was.

This person may not have felt the warmth of human beings since he was born.

Tanjiro thought so, and his tender heart began to overflow.

What made him hesitate was...

He had just seen the body of the girl brought back by the prostitute.

It was a young girl in her prime, but she could no longer feel the warmth of the world.

Complicated emotions and entangled emotions made Tanjiro start to wander around.

The current Tanjiro has not experienced the pain of his family members being bullied and killed by ghosts.

So he is gentle, even for the man-eating ghost, he will show sympathy.

Seeing Tanjiro's tangled expression, Bai Ye instantly understood what he meant, paused for a moment, and said earnestly:
"Tanjiro, don't misuse your kindness."

Tanjiro is good at everything, but his personality is a bit indecisive.

Recalling the original book, Rinaki Sakonji also made such an evaluation of Tanjiro.

Compassion overflows, not decisive enough, and will show a kind breath in front of ghosts...

Gentle to the extreme!

But there is nothing wrong with Tanjiro's kindness.

But Bai Ye would not hesitate to execute Oni just because of Tanjirou's sympathy.

After a moment of silence, Bai Ye continued to say to Tanjiro:
"Tanjiro, you have to know that this world is never black and white."

"As I said before, in fact, most ghosts, when they were humans, were poor people..."

This is also the standard for Wu Mi to bestow blood.

It seems that the more miserable life is, the faster it will become stronger after becoming a ghost.

Because they have enough hatred for human beings in their hearts.

"Just as humans are free to slaughter livestock and eat livestock, ghosts also have the right to freely slaughter humans."

"Humans eat meat to fill their stomachs and grow. Ghosts eat humans just to fill their stomachs and grow."

"So, Tanjiro, I hope you understand..."

"All killing is not moral, but survival!"

"I will never give myself the identity of a good person, because I am a mercenary."

"A mercenary who longs for freedom, do what you want."

"I don't want people-eating ghosts to exist, so I choose to eliminate them, that's all."

After finishing speaking, Bai Ye grabbed the fallen prostitute's body again, raised her legs and was about to walk outside.

Tanjiro stood there and hesitated for a while, Bai Ye's words made him understand something.

But his own kindness will not disappear just because of such a few simple words.

After thinking for a while, Tanjiro suddenly caught up and said:

"Brother Bai Ye, if possible, let me do the next thing instead of you!"

Tanjiro still didn't give up.

Because his nose smells other people's emotions, which leads to the idea of ​​empathy.

So at this moment, he can't stand here and just watch...

Looking at the miserable life of a prostitute, I have never experienced the tenderness of the world, so I left the world like this.

"What are you going to do?"

"Leave it to me, Brother Bai Ye!"

Tanjiro didn't wait for Bai Ye's answer, and directly snatched the prostitute who had lost her sense of resistance from his hands, and gently hugged her in the form of a princess.

At this time, the fallen prostitute's bones were almost shattered by Bai Ye. If it weren't for the ghost's characteristics still supporting her life, she would have died long ago.

So Tanjiro is not worried about danger.

He walked lightly, step by step towards the sunlight outside.

Bai Ye who came back to his senses had no choice but to follow behind Tanjirou, showing a helpless but inexplicably gratified smile.

There is no way, who called him Tanjiro!
……

……

"It's so warm."

Under the ghost's special ability, the fallen prostitute's injuries began to recover, and her consciousness gradually regained consciousness.

"Who...is holding me?"

The skin on the neck began to reconnect and the muscles regained strength.

The prostitute turned her head with all her might, just in time to see Tanjirou's soft eyes.

For a time, their eyes met.

What a pair of gentle eyes!
The prostitute seems to have seen her whole life in it!
Abandoned at birth, bullied in an orphanage, sold to a brothel by adoptees, an extremely miserable life.

But in a trance, the prostitute seemed to see another world from Tanjirou's eyes!
Born in an ordinary family, with a happy family, I found a shoulder to rely on when I grew up, and was hugged so tenderly by him...

At this moment, the prostitute's heart trembled suddenly, and a feeling that she had never experienced before quietly rose.

Whether as a human or as a ghost, she has never experienced such a feeling.

"Sorry, I didn't let you experience the love of human beings."

Tanjiro said while crying:
"But you, who have hurt others, can no longer be forgiven."

The arm of the prostitute regained its strength, and if she could, she could hurt Tanjiro at any time and run away.

he is...

Want to take me to the sun?
I'll just disappear, right?
but……

"Forget it, that's it."

The prostitute thought so, she was really reluctant to leave this embrace.

A hug that comes only once in a lifetime.

The sun came and shone on the prostitute's body, but she couldn't feel any pain.

That's because, compared with sunlight, this person's chest is hotter...

"In my next life, I want to be a human again."

With the last ray of thought, the fallen prostitute completely turned into particles in the air and disappeared without a trace.

……

……

After a while, Tanjiro came back again.

At this time, his hands were empty.

Bai Ye gently rubbed Tanjirou's head, wanting to dispel Tanjirou's unhappiness, and said:
"Tanjirou is still very powerful."

"That expression just now seems to have been redeemed."

Hearing Bai Ye's words, Tanjirou was still not in a happy mood, and asked Bai Ye:

"Brother Bai Ye, you must be wrong when you say ghosts?"

The expression shown by the fallen prostitute before her death made Tanjiro realize that the ghost actually has a human side.

"of course not."

Bai Ye immediately replied without thinking:

"Didn't I just say that the world cannot be black and white, there are good and bad people, and of course there are ghosts..."

"I still don't quite understand."

Tanjiro looked bewildered, thinking of the trace of human emotion that the prostitute showed at the end.

Because the family has never been persecuted by ghosts, Tanjiro's gentleness at this time will still face everything in the world.

"You still need to experience some things before you can understand."

"By the way! Do you want to join my mercenary group?" Bai Ye suddenly opened his mouth to invite.

He didn't have any good opportunities before, but now, he feels that the time is ripe!

"I think here, you can understand what you want to know..."

"Join...Brother Bai Ye's mercenary group?"

Tanjiro was stunned for a moment, but his eyes were full of anticipation.

But after a while, he still said:
"I want to discuss this matter with my family."

Bai Ye smiled instantly.

I just discussed with my family, which means that Tanjiro already has the idea of ​​joining the Yege Mercenary Corps!

For Bai Ye, this alone is enough!
