  "A man's strength is not meant for showing off. It's for proteg the weak."— Paul Greyrat, Mushoku Tensei: Jobless Reination

  <><><><><><>

  Although Tanjiro didn't have Nezuko's help this time, his strength had signifitly improved.

  Moreover, with the information about the S Demon, he should be able to ha alone.

  Even though Roy knew Muzan Kibutsuji would appear in Asakusa, he couldn't go there in advance, as that would alert Muzan.

  If he took several Hashira with him and they were discovered, Muzan, with his cowardly nature, would definitely flee.

  It would then beuch harder to kill him.

  Roy didn't sck off at the Butterfly Mansioher. He tio practice Breathing Styles and ice magic every day.

  After Gyomei Himejima delivered all the Breathing Style teiques, Roy tried them all.

  He discovered that it was only necessary to master one Breathing Style, as the Total tration: stant state required maintaining a single breathing pattern.

  Since each Breathing Style had a different breathing pattern, it was impossible to practice multiple styles simultaneously.

  It was best to focus oyle that suited him best.

  Roy tio practice Water Breathing, which had excellent synergy with his ice abilities.

  On Roy's advice, Saeko learhunder Breathing.

  Thunder Breathing was the fastest of all Breathing Styles, perfectly plementing Saeko's agility.

  As for Suhing, Roy had obtai from Tanjiro, intending to find a suitable girl to learn it.

  Roy's ice magic allowed him to freely manipute ice.

  He had also developed several ice-based teiques.

  ...

  "Roy-kun, do you think Demons and humans coexist peacefully?" Kanae suddenly asked oernoon as they eheir tea.

  "Nee-san, you're still so naive," Shinobu sighed, shaking her head.

  Kanae ignored Shinobu and waited patiently for Roy's answer.

  "Hehe," Roy chuckled. "Let me ask you a question, Kanae-san. Do you think humans coexist peacefully with chis, ducks, and fish? When you're hungry, you still eat them, don't you?"

  "But that's different..."

  Roy interrupted her. "It's not different. In the eyes of Demons, humans are delicious food."

  "Mm-hm! I pletely agree with Roy on this," Shinobu chimed in, nodding in agreement.

  Kanae fell silent.

  "Hehe, perhaps this is a bit harsh for you to accept. In that case, why don't you ask a Demon yourself?" Roy suggested, seeing Kahoughtful expression. Kanae was simply too kind, even towards Demons.

  "Ask a Demon myself?" Kanae looked at him, puzzled.

  "Yes. As it happens, you know this Demon. It's Doma, Upper Rank Two."

  "What? Doma, Upper Rank Two? Do you know his whereabouts?" Shinobu excimed, her eyes widening.

  She would never five the Demon who killed her sister.

  "Of course. Doma is currently the leader of the Paradise Faith. You could say he's the Demon who is with humans the most."

  "Impossible! A Demoablished a religious cult in the human world?" Shinobu gasped in disbelief.

  "Nothing is impossible. As they say, the most dangerous pce is often the safest," Roy shrugged.

  "So, has Doma truly achieved peaceful coexisteh humans?" Kanae asked, seemingly uned that Doma had killed her. She seemed more ied iher Doma had actually mao live in harmony with humans.

  "Well, let's go see for ourselves," Roy replied with a sly smile.

  He was sure that once Kanessed Doma using his cult to lure in humans for ption, she would abandon her ion.

  "Let's not waste any time. Let's go find Doma now!" Shinobu urged, uo tain her eagerness.

  She had long desired to kill Doma, but she cked the strength and his whereabouts.

  Now, as a Devil with enhanced power, she was eager for revenge.

  "Alright, everyone who wants to e, gather around."

  The Paradise Faith was quite well-known, and Roy had already inquired about its location. All he o do en a portal.

  The girls gathered around him.

  Except for the three young girls from the Butterfly Mansion and Aoi Kanzaki, all the others were ready to go.

  But Roy didn't open the portal immediately. He looked towards the door.

  Just then, a figure entered.

  "Roy-sama, may I apany you?"

  She had rge, light green eyes, often flushed cheeks, and a beauty mark beh each eye.

  She wore a white haori over her revealing Demon Syer uniform and a short skirt.

  It was the Love Hashira of the Demon Syer Corps, Mitsuri Kanroji.

  "Mitsuri, what are you doing here?" Shinobu asked in surprise.

  "Well, I finished my mission, and I heard that the new leader of the Demon Syer Corps was here with you, Shinobu-san. And that your sister has been resurrected! So, I came to see for myself," Mitsuri expined.

  "Oh! You must be Shinobu's sister, Kanae Kochht?" Mitsuri looked at Kah curiosity. With simir features and attire to Shinobu, this must be Kanae.

  It was incredible!

  Someone had actually been brought back from the dead.

  "Yes, I am Shinobu's elder sister," Kanae firmed with a smile.

  "Roy-sama is amazing!" Mitsuri excimed, her eyes sparkling with admiration.

  "By the way, were you talking about going to find Doma, Upper Rank Two? I'm Mitsuri Kanroji, the Love Hashira. Roy-sama, could I possibly join you?" Mitsuri asked, her cheeks flushing slightly.

  Mitsuri had joihe Demon Syer Corps to find a husband strohan herself.

  She had heard that the new leader of the Demon Syer Corps was incredibly powerful, so she came to see for herself.

  And now, meeting him in person, she wasn't disappointed.

  As for Roy. Seeing the perfect didate for his Rook piece appear before him, Roy couldn't refuse.

  Mitsuri Kanroji was the ideal choice for the Rook.
