Demon Slayer: I, a ghoul, save the regret!
Chapter 77
In the wooden house at the foot of the mountain, Tanjiro felt uneasy. He got up early, said goodbye to the uncle, and went up the mountain with an empty bamboo basket on his back.
A long line of footprints was left on the snow. Before he reached home, Tanjiro smelled the smell of blood. The uneasiness in his heart made him speed up.
The dilapidated house appeared in front of him. Tanjiro shouted the names of his family with trembling lips. After breaking into the yard, he only saw his mother and Nezuko lying in the house.
He stumbled in. His mother Aoi's body was already cold, and Nezuko's body was still warm, but everyone else was gone, leaving only blood all over the ground.
Tanjiro carried Nezuko on his back and ran quickly, wanting to go to the foot of the mountain to find a doctor for treatment.
Nezuko, who had entered the post-demonization stage, slowly woke up. She smelled the breath of people and began to struggle. Tanjiro was not careful, and both of them fell off the cliff on the side.
The teeth and nails had been transformed into demons. Nezuko pounced on Tanjiro and wanted to bite but was blocked by the axe handle.
Looking at Nezuko's appearance, Tanjiro remembered what the uncle said to him...
There are evil ghosts in the world who are afraid of sunlight, have sharp teeth and claws, and specialize in eating people.
But Nezuko is obviously a human!
"Nezuko! Hold on!"
"I'm sorry, I came back late."
"Hold on... Don't become a ghost!"
Part of her rationality was awakened, Nezuko restrained herself, tears kept pouring out, falling on Tanjiro's face.
Suddenly smelling a dangerous breath, Tanjiro broke free from the restraints and protected Nezuko in his arms, causing Giyuu to change the direction of the Nichirin Sword and cut off part of Tanjiro's hair.
Rolling on the snow with Nezuko in his arms, Tanjiro distanced himself from Giyuu and looked at the person in front of him with caution.
"Why are you protecting her?"
"She's my sister!"
Nezuko struggled in his arms, and Tanjiro could only control it with force. Seeing Giyuu swinging his sword forward, he wanted to protect Nezuko under him again, but this time he was slow.
When he looked up again, Nezuko was held on the ground by Giyuu with one hand, "My job is to kill evil spirits, including your sister."
Tanjiro immediately stood up and explained to Giyuu, "She has never hurt anyone!"
"There are three other auras in my house. Although I don't know what happened, Nezuko is innocent!"
"When a person's wound is stained with the blood of a demon, he will become a demon. That's how they become more and more."
Watching Giyuu take the knife and start to act, Tanjiro became more and more excited, but felt powerless, "If I become a demon, I will find a way to turn back into a human. She is my sister, I will definitely find a way!"
Seeing that the knife was about to fall, Tanjiro knelt down, put his forehead on the ground, and cried with tears in his voice, "Please stop, please don't kill my sister, please, please don't kill her..."
Looking at his humble request, through his bent spine, Giyuu seemed to see Fuji Xishan that year, and he also knelt on the ground so powerlessly, crying, and helplessly watching Santu being taken away.
A burst of anger rushed to his chest, and Giyuu shouted at Tanjiro, "Stand up! Don't let others control your life and death!"
"Don't kneel down and beg others miserably!"
"If this works, your family won't become ghosts!"
"The weak have no right to ask others!"
"Aren't you supposed to protect your sister? Why do you turn your back to me? Why don't you pick up the axe to resist? It's all because of your failure that she fell into my hands!"
As if to encourage Tanjiro, and as if to make himself realize it, Giyuu looked at the boy in front of him, and he felt very guilty.
If I had come earlier, it wouldn't be like this, right?
Miserable boy, I know you are in pain...
All pain is the source of strength, stand up, fragile determination can't protect anything!
The tip of the knife pierced Nezuko's shoulder, and the scream stimulated Tanjiro's potential.
He chopped at Tomioka Giyuu with an axe. After the axe was knocked away, he used the stone and the wind and snow to throw the axe he picked up into the air again.
The axe broke through the wind and snow and fell from the air, heading straight for Giyuu's head. Tanjiro's feint did confuse Giyuu, but such a simple attack could be avoided by slightly tilting the head.
Nezuko took the opportunity to struggle to get out of his hand, and after breaking free, she ran towards Tanjiro.
In Giyuu's annoyed and surprised eyes, Nezuko protected Tanjiro in front of him, and even waved her claws clumsily to intimidate Giyuu with her injuries in order to protect her brother.
This brother and sister... maybe they are different?
When Tanjiro woke up, he saw Nezuko who had fainted, Giyuu Tomioka leaning against a tree, and a girl with a bandaged arm and many wounds on her body.
"Are you awake?"
Hearing Giyuu's words, Tanjiro immediately sat up and threw NezukoDouzi was held in his arms, looking at him warily.
"Go to Sagiri Mountain and find an old man named Urokodaki Sakonji. He said that Tomioka Giyuu asked you to go."
"Don't let your sister get exposed to the sun."
After saying this, Giyuu disappeared in a flash.
Yunqiu touched his pocket, took out a wad of money, and stuffed it into Tanjiro's hand in front of his confused eyes.
"There are many places where you need money along the way, so don't worry about money, kid."
"Giyuu doesn't speak well, but he is also a very gentle person. I believe you will find a way to turn Nezuko back into a human. Come on, red-haired boy!"
