[Ghost Slayer: Blade] Is it my fault for group wear?

269.

"This knife... give me?"

The eldest brother nodded, put the knife aside, and motioned for me to hand him my right hand.He helped me wrap the bandage again in the village of the Knife Smither before, and we came back separately and killed many ghosts on the way. The bandage was stained with black blood, and I didn't think to take it off even though I was used to it.He frowned, looked at it, and put a new bandage on me again.

"Remember to ask me for a new one in the future! Otherwise, it will be very uncomfortable to wear!" He tied the knot carefully, "Okay, that's fine!"

"No, that... Is it really okay to give me that sword?" I groaned, "Isn't that sword supposed to be given to you or Tanjirou...? Anyway, you are also swordsmen, so... ..."

The eldest brother looked up at me, with deep veins engraved in his golden eyes.He imitated me and sighed dignifiedly, then patted my head.

"Tanjiro hasn't gotten enough exercise yet, and I have a knife that I can use easily." He solemnly put the knife in my hand that had been bandaged again, "My lord also agrees, this one will be handed over to you." It could not be better."

"You can't give it to me directly! Otherwise, the bandage will be... huh?"

The flames did not rise immediately.What landed on his hand was a cold metal touch, without the usual scorching heat, and without the smell of blood that immediately melted his skin.

"Huh?" I tentatively held the scabbard, "It turns out..."

"Right, right!" The elder brother became happy, "I said it's very suitable for you! And I asked the swordsmith to make the same sword as me. Does this make you familiar?"

"Hmm...I really miss it." I put the knife safely on my waist, "I will use it when the time is right. Thank you in advance."

"Oh! But, don't you usually use it!" The eldest brother took out the sun wheel knife that I had been carrying around my waist and looked at it. "The knife you have been using is almost blunt!"

"Ah, but it's surrounded by flames, so it should be fine for a short time." I picked it up in my arms, "Here, I also keep the wooden knives you gave me earlier, three knives, no problem!"

"Oh! You still have it! Then I can't be more relieved!" The elder brother also handed the wooden knife to me, "It's just that my wife and boy haven't woken up for morning exercises today! There is no one in the room, you know he is where?"

"Oh, that child, it's in my room." I told him what happened in the morning, "But I have already solved the problem of eating, and Miss Zhushi gave me enough medicine. No problem, no more It's hard."

"Well, that would be great! Speaking of which, I was thinking about apologizing!"

I blinked suspiciously.The eldest brother looked away rarely, his golden-red hair refracted a warm color in the sun, glowing like a burning flame.He just paused for a few seconds, then quickly turned his head to look at me again, and rubbed my hair a few more times.My originally worried mood suddenly became blank.

"What's the matter—hey, don't rub my hair, it won't grow taller!"

"You are still a child after all, to me." He laughed, "I want to apologize for asking you to cook before. I didn't consider your feelings, I'm sorry."

I was used to his high and cadenced tone, and suddenly he spoke to me so calmly, I couldn't get used to it all at once: "Ah... this matter. It's okay, I didn't blame you. No matter how much you want to blame, I should blame you. No misfortune, right? And now that the problem has been resolved, there is no need to worry about it anymore."

The eldest brother showed that helpless expression of "I knew you would say that" again.He shook his head and was about to say something, suddenly looked up at the roof, then picked up a stone from the ground and threw it up.Hearing only two oops, Tanjiro and Inosuke poked their heads out of the roof with their bags on their heads.

"It's fine for the flat-mouthed boy, don't try to climb the roof like him..." I raised my head, "Didn't you guys go to morning exercise? Are you back?"

"Um, I'm sorry! We are not from the story!" Tanjiro blushed quickly, and he explained, "We were really worried about Zenitsu, so we came back from the lap early! By the way, that, Mr. Purgatory said before Yes, we also ate a lot of Mr. Purgatory's meal! But we didn't think about Mr. Purgatory, sorry!"

"It's a big deal, the children should be self-willed, what apologies." I murmured, "... I really want to say it. I should be the one apologizing to you, the Stove Gate Boy."

"Huh?...Did Mr. Purgatory do anything to offend me?"

This is simply a proposition.

yes.If I hadn't appeared, you should be many, many times stronger than you are now.The reflexes, speed, strength and hard-won skills honed in those desperate struggles are what I cut off the opportunity for life.It is because of my joining that you are so well protected, just like an ordinary child who has never experienced hardships.

But if such a child can't survive such a cruel ending, isn't it all my fault?

271.

When I was about to open my mouth to explain the whole story to him, Tanjiro suddenly jumped in front of me from the roof, and covered my eyes with his hand on tiptoe.There was a thin layer of calluses on his hands, and there was a fresh smell of grass and trees.I froze for a moment.

"...?"

"It's okay, Mr. Purgatory will not do anything to harm me, I believe Mr. Purgatory." He said seriously, "So there is no need to apologize."

"Don't make that face either."

I took a deep breath, burst out laughing, and took his hand off, and the sad atmosphere that I just created disappeared in a wave: "Obviously I am older, why did you comfort me. But I know Now, don't slack off in the final training! Let me train with you!"

Inosuke: "Oh! Then I will fight with you first!"

Me: "Yoxi! Let's go fight in the backyard!"

Tanjiro: "Then, then I'm next!"

Brother: "Hahahaha, you are very energetic! We will start preparing the equipment for the training ghost killing team in the evening, so let's play in the afternoon! I will come too!"

Me: "Oh!"

272.

Oops, if I'm not careful, maybe I'll become a hot-blooded idiot too.

273.

After a belated reaction, we almost destroyed the entire training ground.At the beginning, it was just Inosuke and I discussing swordsmanship. Later, he dragged Tanjiro in, and the elder brother joined in the melee hahaha.I grabbed Zenitsu by the collar with my left hand and threw him towards Tanjirou, and with my right hand, I shook off the broken wooden sword and reached for the second knife pinned to my waist.The elder brother who jumped over from the other side swung my hand away with the back of the knife, and I fell backwards, but Inosuke attacked from behind again.

"If that's the case, don't blame me for cheating!"

I launched the vampire technique very decisively, and the blades of the people who were supposed to besiege me one after the other were intertwined, and I turned into a fleeting flame, barely dodging from under their swords, and along the way Tanjiro rushed over and pushed the battle situation.

"Damn! Damn!! I suddenly want to be a ghost too!" Shanyi cried and hugged my leg, I raised my leg to kick, but out of the corner of my eye, I caught a glimpse of the middle-aged man standing at the door with folded arms and looking at us.

——Ah, bad.

I hurriedly stopped my movements, turned around and swung my knife to startle Tanjiro who was hacking at me, and quickly retracted the knife in the air, but I couldn't recover the strength, and the whole person fell on me. I had someone on my hind legs The center of gravity was unstable, and several people rushed over due to inertia to stop their movements one after another, and they fell backwards and slid all the way to the door with the face brake.

I buried my face on the ground and wished I could dig a hole. The father in name suddenly laughed. He walked up and snorted my hair like I was touching Senjurou's head.

"I admit that you are my son." He said in a low voice, and quickly withdrew his hand, "Welcome back, Xing Shoulang."
