Demon Slayer: Add friends to become stronger! Zenitsu is my best friend

Taoshan, in the yard of a wooden house on the hillside

"Luochuan, I'm back."

Zenitsu said with his head down and inarticulate.

The boy sitting in the middle of the yard heard Zenitsu's voice, closed the book and turned around.

Seeing Zenitsu's bruised face, it seemed that he had expected it.

"Captured again?"

The young man had a handsome face and looked at Zenitsu with a helpless expression.

His name was Luochuan and he was originally a social animal on Blue Star. He was overworked during overtime and fell into a coma. When he opened his eyes again, he had come to the Demon Slayer World.

The body that Luochuan's soul possessed was named Tomoya, also an orphan.

He met Zenitsu while wandering the streets.

The two depended on each other until the day when the Sound Pillar appeared.

That day, Zenitsu owed a large debt because he was deceived by the girl he had a crush on, and the debt collector came to his door.

When Luochuan was thinking about how to help Zenitsu get out, a gray-haired old man appeared.

The old man is the former Sound Pillar, Jigoro Kuwashima.

The old man brought him and Zenitsu back to Momoyama, hoping to train them to become members of the Demon Slayer Corps.

But unexpectedly, Luochuan did not have the qualifications to practice, and could not learn any breathing techniques.

Zenitsu did have a talent for learning, but he grew up in ridicule and disapproval, so he subconsciously wanted to escape from training.

Even though Luochuan consciously encouraged Zenitsu, it did not work very well.

During the year of training in Momoyama, Zenitsu had tried to escape no less than a hundred times.

But without exception, he was beaten black and blue by the old man every time and caught back.

"Grandpa actually waited on the way down the mountain in advance, otherwise I would...hiss Luochuan, be gentle."

Zenitsu said with a grin, obviously he had not given up and wanted to run.

Luochuan had no choice but to apply the plaster on his hand to the red and swollen part of Zenitsu's face.

He didn't learn the thunder breathing at all in the mountain for a year, but he did learn to bandage the wounds.

"Don't worry, the time is almost up."

Luochuan calculated the time he and Zenitsu would go up the mountain.

In Demon Slayer, Zenitsu only trained with the Sound Pillar for a year before going to participate in the final selection.

If he remembered correctly, it would be in the next two days.

Thinking of this, Luochuan was a little worried.

Zenitsu went down the mountain, relying on the all-conquering Thunder Breathing Type 1 to not only protect himself, but also left many famous scenes.

But Luochuan is different, a pure useless man with no power to even tie a chicken.

In this world where all kinds of demons are rampant, let alone being with Zenitsu, it is lucky to be able to survive

"Ding"

"Detecting that the host wants to play badly, the friend system starts binding"

"Binding successful!"

The strange voice made Luochuan startled, and he glanced at the puzzled Zenitsu in front of him.

After confirming that he was the only one who heard it, Luochuan's eyes lit up.

Is it his own golden finger?

It's finally here. With the system, Luochuan has the capital to survive in this world.

Luochuan suppressed his excitement and waited for the next response from the friend system.

【Friends system function, as long as you establish a friend relationship with others, you can randomly get a reward from them】

【Rewards include understanding, qualifications, talents, abilities, etc.】

【No race restrictions】

【The closer your friendship is, the richer the rewards you get.】

【Additional ability: Detection】

"If we establish a friendship, we can get a random reward from the other party?"

Luo Chuan's hand gradually slowed down while applying the medicine. He first used a [Detection Technique] on himself.】

【Host: Luochuan】

【Race: Human】

【Realm: None】

【Perception: Poor】

【Qualification: Inferior】

【Talent: None】

【Skill: Bandage (Proficiency)】

【……】

Luochuan's face twitched when he saw his own attributes. No wonder he couldn't learn the breath of thunder.

It turned out that his comprehension and aptitude were not even low-level. According to the system's prompts, there are five levels of aptitude and comprehension.

From bottom to top, they are inferior, low, medium, high, and super.

Luochuan is at the lowest level.

It is hopeless for this body to become stronger by learning breathing techniques, and he can only"rely on friends".

Putting away the ointment in his hand, Luochuan looked at Zenitsu.

【Name: Agatsuma Zenitsu】

【Race: Human】

【Realm: Gui】

【Comprehension: Superior】

【Qualification: Superior】

【Talent: Echo Ear (possessing absolute pitch, can read the emotions of objects through sound, and can distinguish between humans and ghosts)】

【Skills: Lightning Breathing Type 1: Thunderbolt Flash (Mastered)】

Seeing Zenitsu's luxurious panel information, Luochuan nodded with satisfaction.

Not only is his aptitude and comprehension both top-notch, but even the Lightning Breathing Type 1, which he has learned for less than a year, is at the mastery level.

Skill proficiency is divided into four levels: entry level, mastery, mastery, and perfection.

It is not easy for Zenitsu to practice Lightning Breathing to this level in just one year.

"How do I determine if I am friends with someone?"

Luo Chuan asked the system.

"Just acknowledge it verbally. After becoming friends, rewards will be given according to the intimacy between the two parties."

After hearing the system's answer, Luochuan looked at Zenitsu differently.

Seeing Luochuan's eyes.

Zenitsu swallowed his saliva and the doubts just now disappeared. His face was slightly red. He felt a little embarrassed. What's going on?

"Zenitsu, we are friends, right?"

Zenitsu was startled, then nodded heavily:"Of course!" Zenitsu met Luochuan five years ago.

At that time, only Luochuan was kind to him, and would not look at him with strange eyes or mock him.

If it weren't for Luochuan, Zenitsu didn't know if he could hold on during those years.

"Ding"

"Successfully added Agatsuma Zenitsu as a friend"

【It is detected that Agatsuma Zenitsu and the host have a close relationship, and four rewards can be obtained】

【Comprehension: Superior】

【Qualification: Superior】

【Talent: Echoing Ears】

【Skills: Thunder Breathing Type 1 - Thunderbolt Flash Mastery】

【Do you choose to merge now?】

"No."

I don't know what the fusion reward will bring, so Luochuan is not in a hurry to merge.

Not merging does not prevent Luochuan from feeling better.

As long as you make friends with the other party, you can get an attribute from the other party.

The ability of this friend system is too amazing.

A full four rewards directly turned Luochuan from an ordinary person into a swordsman at the same level as Zenitsu.

Although the realm is still a little short, the fastest improvement in the Demon Slayer world is the realm.

The highest realm setting in the anime is the pillar, followed by Jia, Yi, Bing, Ding, Wu, Ji, Geng, Xin, Ren, and Gui.

It took Zenitsu and the other two less than two years from training to the final battle to reach the pillar level.

You can imagine how fast the strength improvement is in between.

"Luochuan, are you okay?"Zenitsu waved his hand in front of Luochuan.

"It's okay, the ointment has been applied. Go to bed early. You still have training tomorrow."

Luo Chuan waved his hand. He just wanted to go back to the room to merge the rewards.

Hearing this, Shan Yi's face suddenly fell. Yes, there is still training tomorrow......

With heavy steps, Zenitsu returned to his room in a daze.

Luochuan, on the contrary, walked briskly, finally waiting for the day when he could finally make it.
