The old man was actually afraid that Shin’s blind self-confidence and arrogance would ultimately cost him his life.
While Urokodaki Sakonji’s disciple had not been subjectively arrogant, he had displayed arrogance in his actions.
As Urokodaki Sakonji said, excessively attempting things beyond one’s capabilities was a manifestation of arrogance.
Even if the intention was good, it might ultimately harm oneself.
“Don’t worry, old man!
I’ll definitely outlive you!” Shin joked with Urokodaki Sakonji to ease the somewhat heavy atmosphere.
Urokodaki Sakonji sighed and said nothing more to Shin.
He picked up his chopsticks and gestured, “Let’s eat!”
Having said that, Urokodaki Sakonji began eating, no longer caring who Shin had learned Water Breathing from.
The older generation had started eating, so Shin followed suit.
Both ate the fish slices quietly, enjoying the delicious dipping sauce.
Shin thought it would also be great with sliced beef or other hot pot ingredients.
Time passed slowly, and the fish slices on the plate dwindled until they were completely gone, eaten by Shin and Urokodaki Sakonji.
After finishing their fish, they each ladled out bowls of hot fish soup and slowly drank it.
A sense of contentment washed over them.
The cool night wind drifted into the room, and the weak flames under the iron pot danced in the breeze.
A few sparks scattered into the air before extinguishing completely after burning out their last bit of heat.
Just as Shin and Urokodaki Sakonji were finishing their fish soup, the door to the wooden house was pushed open, revealing a disheveled Tanjiro panting heavily.
Tanjiro watched Shin and Urokodaki Sakonji drinking fish soup. Follow the newest chapters on g.com.
Using his last bit of strength, he said, “I’m back~”
As soon as he finished speaking, Tanjiro collapsed from exhaustion at the doorway.
At that moment, Shin and Urokodaki Sakonji both put down their bowls and chopsticks.
Urokodaki Sakonji stood up, walked over to Tanjiro, and murmured to the unconscious boy, “I acknowledge you, Tanjiro~”
After saying this, Urokodaki Sakonji picked up Tanjiro and placed him next to Nezuko.
Tanjiro’s breathing was extremely weak.
This high-intensity test had truly been his limit.
It was likely that without his extraordinary willpower, Tanjiro would not have survived the test before collapsing.
…
The next day at noon
Tanjiro awoke from his coma, feeling aches and pains all over his body—the aftereffects of intense exercise.
“Hiss~”
Tanjiro groaned in pain as he tried to get up.
However, he could not control his muscles.
After a long struggle, he still could not sit up.
But then Tanjiro smelled a familiar scent.
Following the aroma, he turned his head.
And there he saw Nezuko, asleep beside him.
“Nezuko!” Tanjiro exclaimed with delight. Follow the newest chapters on g.com.
Just then, the sounds of fighting outside caught Tanjiro’s attention.
Slightly recovered, Tanjiro slowly pushed open the door of the wooden hut.
Outside, Shin and Urokodaki Sakonji were practicing with bamboo swords.
The two exchanged blows, and the crisp clinking sounds of their swords echoed in Tanjiro’s ears.
