Hirayama Yuuki put his arm around his shoulder and pulled him aside, his face full of fawning smiles.
Ryosuke knew the fat guy was up to no good, so he glanced at him sideways.
"Oh my~ Lord Naruhashi, we're already so familiar with each other, why don't you just go all the way and be a good Samaritan?"
"speak English."
"I would like to trouble you to escort my group of good-for-nothing disciples to Tengxi Mountain to participate in the final assessment."
Chapter 148 The current Sound Hashira is a friend of married women.
Hirayama Yuki laughed so hard his eyes disappeared.
Ryosuke laughed in exasperation and patted him hard on the shoulder.
"No, you want me to be your bodyguard and escort your disciple to the assessment?"
"I'm the Sound Pillar, for goodness' sake! If my fellow disciples from Momoyama see me like this, how can I face them anymore?"
"If Grandpa Jigoro finds out, he'll beat me with his cane!"
He had to consider the feelings of that little old man, Kuwajima Jigo, to some extent.
As a Sound Pillar, why would someone become an escort for the Wind Whisperer's trainer? What kind of talk would that make?
Anyone who didn't know better would think that Ryosuke Yasui had switched allegiance to another master.
"Besides, why are you asking me about this, instead of Shimi and Kuangjin?"
"Oh, it's different!"
Hirayama Yusei waved his hand and continued spouting his fallacies and heresies.
"To be honest, that kid Sanemi can be considered half your disciple."
"Our Demon Slayer Corps is united as one, and we support each other across different Breathing Techniques. There's no point in worrying about this!"
"This shows that Mr. Mingjie is broad-minded, mentors younger generations, and recruits talents without being bound by convention!"
No wonder Kagaya likes you so much.
You've got a real silver tongue, kid.
He's all about flattery.
However, Ryosuke understood in his heart.
Hirayama Yusei wanted him to give Luanfeng Mountain Stream some face and show off to the other trainers.
My own father sent me two more promising young talents!
After all, Ryosuke is extremely powerful and prestigious among the Pillars of the Demon Slayer Corps.
The most important thing is that, apart from Beiming Island, which pillar hasn't been trained by him?
Hirayama Yusei is very shrewd; he certainly knows how to use this network of connections.
However, Ryosuke remained unmoved.
Hirayama Yuki had anticipated this, and took the letter out of his pocket and handed it to Ryosuke.
"Look at this."
Ryosuke took it with a puzzled look and unfolded it to take a look.
Inside are the letters exchanged between the chubby boy and Kuwashima Jigoro from a few days ago.
Hirayama Yuki brought up the matter, and Kuwashima Jigoro was so flattered by his praise that he immediately agreed on Ryosuke's behalf.
Ryosuke didn't know what to say.
This chubby kid had planned this from the very beginning.
Ryosuke didn't know whether to be angry or laugh.
Hirayama Yuki quickly seized the opportunity and put his arm around Ryosuke's shoulder, shaking him.
"Please help me out, I'll treat you to dinner next time!"
Ryosuke glanced at the expectant looks in the Tokito brothers' eyes, and finally sighed helplessly.
"Alright, alright, this is the only time. Don't let it happen again!"
The journey to Fujikasayama was quite smooth.
With Ryosuke in charge, not only ordinary wild beasts, but even wandering evil spirits would stay far away.
After all, he had a fearsome reputation, and the little bread rolls were terrified of him.
On the way, Ryosuke also took the opportunity to observe this year's Wind Whisper disciples.
Aside from the two exceptional individuals, the Tokito brothers.
That disciple named Asada Naoki is quite solid and has a good temperament.
While the others may not have any outstanding qualities, they have all reached this level through Hirayama Yuki's training, which means they are at least at a qualified level.
Three days later, the team arrived safely at Fujisaki Mountain.
Wisteria blossoms covered the mountains and fields, resembling purple clouds.
Ryosuke's gaze swept across the crowd and landed on a familiar figure.
The girl, with blue eyes and black hair in pigtails, looked very nervous, clutching her sword tightly.
He looks familiar...
This is... Kanzaki Aoi?!
Ryosuke remembered.
When the original story begins, Kanzaki Aoi is already working at the Butterfly Mansion.
The reason seems to be that he was cowardly and unable to overcome his fear when facing evil spirits, so he could only go to the Butterfly Mansion to take care of the wounded.
Given her temperament, she probably won't even pass the final assessment.
However, since he was in the same cohort as Muichiro, he naturally won without any effort.
In the end, she even got together with the most handsome pig among the three charcoal boys... cough! Inosuke.
If it were anyone else, Ryosuke would have remarked that he was eating well.
But here, all Ryosuke can say is that Kanzaki Aoi ate well.
After all, Seiichi mistook the pig for a girl when they first met because of its good looks.
Before my reverie could end, a gentle voice sounded behind me.
"Good day, Mr. Ryosuke."
Ryosuke turned around and saw Amane standing not far away, as elegant and dignified as ever.
Two children were with her.
The two children look almost identical, with delicate features and are extremely cute.
They were all dressed in exquisitely patterned kimonos, and judging from their appearance and attire, they all looked like girls.
One person had pure white hair, like snow, while the other had jet-black hair.
This is precisely Ubuyashiki Hina and... Ubuyashiki Teriyaki.
"Lady Tianyin".
Ryosuke nodded in acknowledgment, his gaze falling on the two children.
The two little ones had no expression, but greeted Ryosuke very politely.
"Good day, Mr. Ryosuke."
"Hello."
Ryosuke responded in a soft voice.
Tenon glanced sideways at Muichiro and Yuichiro.
She had known about the brothers' situation for the past few days.
I just didn't expect the two of them to be so talented, able to participate in the final assessment in just a few days.
Since Tenon was powerless, she naturally couldn't sense the changes in the Tokito brothers' aura.
They also didn't know their current strength, which led to misunderstandings.
In reality, the final assessment is just a formality. If there isn't one, these two brothers would have already started their mission and gone out to slay ghosts.
Muichiro smiled and nodded to the extremely beautiful lady, which was considered a greeting.
After all, he was captivated by the other person's appearance when they first met.
They mistakenly thought the other person was a birch tree fairy.
Ichiro, however, looked away somewhat guiltily.
Tianyin didn't mind and nodded in return to the two.
"Mr. Ryosuke, you've worked hard these past few days."
Ryosuke waved his hand dismissively, his gaze returning to Hina and Kiriya.
Tianyin brought the two of them here, presumably to familiarize them with the final assessment process.
As they get older, Kagaya's health may become even less optimistic.
At that time, matters such as presiding over the assessment will likely be handed over to them.
Ryosuke stared at Teruya's beautiful women's kimono, speechless for a moment.
Because the boys in the Ubuyashiki family were generally weak, they were raised as girls until the age of thirteen.
This might be a way for the god butler to delay the curse of the birthplace.
But if that's the case, then what about when Kagaya was a child...?
He's a cross-dresser too?!
