Demon Slayer: Upper 0 seems to be a waste

Chapter 276 Reunion of old friends

There are indeed such people in the world. It is difficult to describe them with simple language or accurate words. They survive more by relying on intuition and extraordinary talents.

Xuan Mi hadn't had much contact with people like this before, so it was hard not to be surprised when he met one, like now.

New members were invited to Lingguang's small classroom. The little boy sat high on the stone, while the four older boys sat in a row on the floor under the stone, listening to each other's lectures seriously.

Only one of them seemed to really understand what the boy was saying, another nodded as if he understood but not quite, and the other two had no idea whether the other was speaking human language at that moment.

"He speaks human language, right? It's Japanese, right?"

The boy named Zenitsu quietly turned sideways, and the face that turned to face him was full of disbelief. Xuan Mi was not sure whether the boy was disbelief in the current situation because the teacher who was giving the lecture was having trouble accepting it, or because he was shocked by the content of the lecture.

For Xuan Mi himself, it was a combination of both, but the latter was more intense.

Rinko was still giving a lecture that probably no one else besides Tanjiro could fully understand, and Tanjiro was responding with great enthusiasm, but the two of them were talking in a conversation filled with ambiguous onomatopeia...

It certainly doesn't sound like two humans having a formal conversation...

Xuan Mi almost sighed helplessly.

"That's right."

He finally responded softly, not feeling confident enough to say it.

Kyojuro arrived just as the sun was setting. It was not the right time, or maybe it was just the right time. There were team members training under the waterfall. After greeting Xingming and approaching the forest, he could hear whimpering, roaring, and occasionally bursts of wailing. They were probably stumped by the training here.

At any other time, Kyojuro might have taken advantage of the fact that he had nothing urgent to do to go and take a look, but it was different now. He was looking for someone, so he could only bypass the sounds and head deeper into the forest.

From a distance, the first thing I caught was not a figure but a voice. Perhaps because I was still some distance away, I couldn't hear it clearly and didn't know what it was expressing.

"That's not it, it should be boom! Tanjiro didn't understand what I meant at all!"

"What exactly does 'boom' mean? The very description itself is the problem."

"Is it going to be a boom? I always thought it was more like a bang, like a burning flame."

"No, no, all I saw was a boom, like an explosion, and it caught fire all of a sudden."

As we got closer, the distance was erased and the sound became clearer. Even so, what I heard didn't seem much different from before.

They were still arguing, but the topic and content of the argument were a bit confusing. There were still a lot of meaningless and messy noises, and boom, bang, it seemed like they were describing something.

"What are you talking about!?"

The clear, resonant voice had a powerful penetrating power, announcing the arrival of the person even before they arrived. The sound pierced through the trees, reaching the boys' ears. Then came the voice's owner, striding forward like the voice, passing through the trees that obscured their view, arriving before them in a split second.

"So fast!"

"Mr. Purgatory!"

"Kyojuro?"

Different voices and different words come from different people, but they all express the same joy, which can perhaps be regarded as a welcome to the guests.

Four heads turned to him at once. Lingguang had his back to him, his little head held high, and he had to lean back to take in his reflection. The other three boys sat around him, their sitting postures different, but they were all in a neat row.

It looked like the four of them were having a small meeting before arriving.

"Mr. Purgatory, Rinko is giving us a lecture."

The one who finally gave the answer was a boy that Kyojuro was relatively unfamiliar with. But although he was unfamiliar, he was actually the one he was most familiar with. After all, he was Sane's younger brother. However, they did not spend much time together, and Sane seldom mentioned his younger brother on his own initiative. Only when Kyojuro thought of Chijuro would the other party show that rare expression of nostalgia and worry. But when he asked him, the other party became silent again.

"Oh, really?! Then take me with you! I also want to see how Rinko teaches!"

Kyojuro responded cheerfully and sat down as well. While he turned his head, Zenitsu and Xuanya looked at each other and sighed silently.
