Sente Eiji's Black Friday

……Grass.

Undead Kawa Minami exploded all over, and just about to slip away, a hand grabbed the back of the collar.

"Don't run away, I'll teach you if you beg me?"

The blue-haired boy poked his head out with a smile on his face, and said to him with a bewildered look: "Come on, come on, anyway, call 'Mr. Ying Er' first?"

...Go away!

Undead Kawa Minami ground his molars, and glared at him forbearance: "Did that big mouth of Kuano tell you?"

"Yu Ye? Ah, you mean Kuang Jin?" Hu Dieying Er tilted his head, his expression was very puzzled, "He returned to the team as soon as I came back, didn't he tell me anything?... just a little weird smile?"

"Then you—" Undead Kawa Minya's Adam's apple rolled, and he looked away with some embarrassment, "Then how do you know that I am learning to breathe?" And it took a week to learn it!

"Huh? Isn't this a matter of course." Hu Dieying raised her eyebrows, shrugged her shoulders and let him go, then turned and walked along the corridor.

At the moment of passing by, he glanced at Undead Kawasami, staring at his eyes with a quiet smile, "'Kill all the evil spirits'—isn't that what you said? Like this How can a man like this wait a week and do nothing?"

Undead Kawa Miniya was taken aback.

—He actually remembered it.

Such thoughts suddenly appeared in his mind, making his gaze suddenly complicated.

The truth that I blurted out on the vine attack mountain was actually remembered by this person after I said it only once.

...What kind of person is he?

"What are you still doing in a daze? Hurry up and keep up."

Hu Die Ying Er, who had already walked a few steps, noticed that he was in a daze, and turned to call him.

Immortal Chuan Shiya came back to his senses, and quickly followed him: "...where are you going?"

"Don't you want to learn the breathing of the complete concentration?" Ying Er smiled with crooked eyebrows, and pointed to the dojo that has appeared in front of him, "Use your body to experience it in actual combat, this is the fastest way—although you You didn't call me 'Mr. Eiji', but since I've adopted you as your stepson, of course I will take responsibility~"

... This guy, was he so fond of laughing before?

Undead Kawa Minami stared at his smile, and suddenly lost his mind inappropriately.

In his deep-rooted impression of Hu Dieying, mainly from "that night" and the wisteria flower forest seven days ago, he always thought that she was a very indifferent person.

Will kill the mother who turned into a ghost in front of her son without hesitation, have no mercy for the dead child, and take off his arm with one move...

What Hu Die Ying Er did in front of him has always been annoying.

Undead Kawa Minya's impression of him has always been "arbitrary", "cruel and indifferent".

However, his strength felt on Mount Fujishi, as well as the unbearable hospitality during the past seven days—just because he is Hu Die Eiji’s stepson—all showed Undead Kawa Minya that Hu Die Eiji The essence of human beings does not seem to be what he sees.

The bold and cheerful water column that other people talk about, who takes protecting everyone as his own responsibility, and has made great contributions to the Demon Slayer Squad, so he is respected and admired, is simply the opposite of the "Hu Die Eiji" that Immortal Kawa Minya saw.

... So in the end, why should he treat himself differently?What on earth is he trying to do? !

Everything went round and round and went back to the original point, becoming an unsolvable knot.Immortal Kawa Miniya lifted her bangs and clicked her tongue irritably, and asked Eiji, who was picking out wooden knives in the arena, angrily, "Hey! Why did you choose me to be your stepson?"

Hu Dieying Er looked back at him, raised her hand and threw a wooden knife over.

Immortal Kawa Minami catches it quickly with his eyes and hands, and puts himself in the same posture as Katsuno Kusakami taught him these days.

"The reason why I chose you to be my stepson...well, this..."

Eiji Hu Die was talking nonsense, and when he saw that he had put on a posture, he smiled slightly--Fushikawa Miniya guessed that should be a sign of satisfaction--he also took a wooden knife himself, and casually put one hand on his hip and held the knife in the other. Shi Ya showed a subtle smile, "Guess?"

It's not Kawasami: "..."

He doesn't guess! !

Play tricks!Everyone says you are straightforward, but he may not see it! !

Damn, after all, why is she so bad in front of him alone!You really are sick! !

He is not used to you! !

"Stop talking nonsense, show me the trick!!"

The white-haired boy who fell into rage again rushed forward with a knife in hand without saying a word.

Hu Dieying'er curled her lips slightly, dodged his attack, and slashed his stomach with a backhand: "Hey~ I'll get a book first~"

"—!!"

Immortal Kawa Miniya was bowed like a shrimp by this unimaginably heavy knife, and the wooden knife was released instantly, and he couldn't stop his waist while clutching his stomach.

"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

The young man beside him purposely said sarcastic remarks in a surprised tone, then tapped the wooden knife on the ground with the tip of the knife, and when Shimi's eyes were attracted, he suddenly swung the knife and slashed. It lay across his neck, forcing him to break out in a cold sweat.

It was obviously just a wooden knife, but the chill that Hu Die Eiji's blade gave off at that moment almost made Shiya think that his neck would really be cut off.

"Do you understand?" A slightly cold voice sounded above your head, "No matter what happens, you must never let go of your knife, or you will end up waiting for death.—Come again!"

Immortal Kawa Minami's eyes flashed in amazement and stupefaction, and then his ears turned red with almost shame.

He clenched his teeth tightly, and regardless of the severe pain in his abdomen, he picked up the wooden knife and resumed his posture.

Hu Dieying'er looked at him, the corners of her lips curled up imperceptibly.

In the following time, Immortal Kawasami truly experienced what harsh training like hell is.

Hu Dieyinger's training content is very simple, that is, to slash at him with a knife, and then be beaten to the ground by him, and then listen to his guidance when he gets up.

And then it's repeating, repeating, repeating.

However, it was such a seemingly purely mechanical and brutal training that made Immortal Kawasaki feel that he had really learned something—no, it would not be an exaggeration to say that he had undergone a radical change.

Eiji Hu Die is really good - this is what Shiya thinks from the bottom of his heart - he is really really good.Even though he was only one year older than him, this person not only didn't have a single superfluous movement, even his guidance was sharp to the point, he could always pick out his faults with precise insight, and let himself be enlightened because of his few words.

To be able to be taught by such a person is definitely a luck that others cannot envy.

... Such an admirable person, why did he choose himself as a stepson who can't even breathe?

"--Snapped."

A knife that could not be caught by the naked eye slammed him into the air, and Undead Kawasami rolled far away on the ground in a state of embarrassment. After stopping, his pupils shrank suddenly, and he lay on the ground and vomited in the dark.

"Don't be distracted."

The blue-haired boy who was still standing there warned coldly, and when his breathing calmed down a bit, he raised the knife again: "Come again."

"..."

Undead Kawa Minami clenched the hilt of the knife, spat at himself in his heart, then struggled to stand up, raised the knife and attacked again.

—no praise, no consolation, not even a break.

What Hu Dieyinger adopted to his stepson was such bloodless and tearless devil training.

Immortal Kawa Minami, unbelievably, never yelled about pain from the beginning to the end, and didn't even complain about it.

From noon to evening, the white-haired boy was like a sponge, quickly absorbing all the skills he taught him from Eiji, and quickly applying that knowledge to his moves and movements. He has undergone a transformation visible to the naked eye, almost completely different from himself before he started training.

If anyone is watching this long mentoring battle here, they will find that Immortal Kawasami's growth rate is terrifying, and the water column that teaches him does not care whether the opponent can digest it or not, and just pours skills and experience into it mercilessly. in his body.

The "initial guidance" between master and apprentice finally came to an end until Undead Kawa Minami lost his strength and fainted after being kicked away again.

Hearing the silence in the dojo, Goto, who had been waiting outside the door, poked his head out, carefully looked at the white-haired boy who was lying still, and asked tentatively, "Well, Master Eiji...?"

"...Ah, Goto, you're here."

Hu Dieying'er, who was staring down at his stepson on the ground, came back to his senses, put down the knife and looked away, "Take him down for treatment, and clean up the dojo, please."

"Yes!" Goto walked in swiftly, saluted him and walked to the side of Undead Kawa Miniya, and was startled by the boy's bruises all over his body.

Wow... Isn't this too miserable?I don't know where to start moving him...

Just when he felt a little bit numb in consideration, Hu Die Yinger, who noticed the situation, came over: "Forget it, you can clean the dojo directly."

"Ah? Is it...?" What about Mr. Undead Chuan?

Goto responded with some confusion, and was about to ask, when Eiji squatted down and hugged the white-haired boy.

Master Shuizhu's clothes were not messed up in this guiding battle, and he didn't even sweat much, which was in stark contrast to the distressed young man in his arms.

——Ah, indeed, Eiji-sama is super powerful.

Goto sighed with emotion, and lowered his head to notice that Undead Chuan Minya, whose right arm was hanging weakly, was still holding a knife in his hand, so he helped him take it off without thinking: "Huh? Mr. Undead Chuan passed out, why is he still holding the knife? Don't let it go... ah, it's quite hard."

Hu Dieying Er raised her eyebrows when she heard the words, and looked down at the knife, her gaze froze slightly when she touched the blood stain left on the handle.

He stopped in his tracks and looked down at the fainted teenager in his arms.

"...Master Eiji?" Seeing him not moving, Goto tilted his head strangely.

Eiji came back to his senses, smiled and said nothing, and walked towards the treatment room with Minya in his arms.

Immortal Kawa Miniya did not wake up until the next afternoon.

As soon as he regained consciousness, the intense soreness all over his body made him groan. Immediately afterwards, his misty consciousness returned, and Shimi swallowed a painful cry when he remembered that he was on the territory of "cold-blooded bastards" , opened his eyes with some difficulty.

"Are you awake?"

A soft voice came, and then a beautiful face came into view.

This woman... remember it seems to be that guy's sister...?

Immortal Kawa Minami was thinking about it in a daze, but he didn't speak immediately because of an inexplicable feeling that arose when he thought of "that guy".

The girl didn't care either, she put the medical tray in her hand on the head of the bed, sorted out the bandages and medicines inside, and started talking to him in a rambling manner.

"My name is Kanae Hudie, and I'm Eiji Hudie's younger sister. It would be nice for Mr. Fushikawa to call me Kanae. I heard that you are the stepson of my brother now? My brother is sometimes a little childish, so please forgive me!"

"..."

"I also have a younger sister named Shinobu, who is also helping out at Butterfly House now. She wears a butterfly hair accessory that looks very similar to mine. Mr. Fushikawa will recognize her when he sees her!"

"..."

"Did you train with my elder brother yesterday? He didn't know the severity of his attack, and I hope Mr. Undead Chuan won't be offended..."

"..." When is she going to talk?

Immortal Kawa Miniya stared at the ceiling and felt a headache.

He is a bad-tempered guy who has nothing to do with this kind of girl who speaks softly like cotton. If it is normal, he will avoid it before Kanae says a word.

However, yesterday's mentoring battle changed his view of Hu Die Ying Er a lot. He has begun to recognize and respect his "master" who suddenly appeared from the bottom of his heart.Therefore, the boy couldn't speak ill of Eiji's younger sister, Kanae Hudie, and could only listen to her chatter in silence, and secretly prayed that she would leave quickly.

However, Hudie Kanae didn't receive his prayer at all, and kept talking friendly:

"I heard from the adults in Yin that in the Demon Slayer Squad, the stepson and Zhu are very close, like family members! So let's get along well, Mr. Fushikawa!"

family? !

Undead Kawa Minami twisted his face, wanting to refute the words that he rejected from the bottom of his heart, but looking at the girl's mother-like eyes full of concern, what he originally wanted to say somehow became: " ...I haven't joined the Demon Slayer Squad yet."

"Sooner or later I will join." Kanae laughed after hearing this, "I have heard from my elder brother that Mr. Undead Chuan is very talented in swordsmanship, and he will definitely become a powerful swordsman soon!"

She was just repeating Eiji's words normally, but for some reason, Undead Kawa Miniya opened her eyes wide in shock as if she had heard something incredible: "...that guy? Said I'm very talented ?”

"Yes."

Kanae nodded, and said with a soft smile: "Brother, I talked to Shinobu and I about Mr. Immortal Chuan last night, saying that you are a rare genius, and you will remember everything he said. I won’t do it again after being corrected, and I’m serious and hardworking in my practice... Haha, I’ve been talking about you anyway.”

The white-haired boy turned his head unnaturally when he heard half of it, and when Kanae's last sentence fell, his ears turned red for no apparent reason.

"Stop lying, that bastard was so obvious yesterday... how could he look satisfied with me..."

He muttered indistinctly like this, looking a little bit unconvinced in shame and indignation.

Kanae stared at him with tolerant and understanding eyes like a watchman, and said softly and gently: "No, from my point of view, when my elder brother talks about you, his eyes are clearly full of pride."

"..."

Immortal Kawamiya turned away from her, but her white earlobes turned red silently.
