Chapter 95: The plot is different from the original

"Y-You were about to defeat Muzan..."

Even if Kagaya had heard this news beforehand, when he heard it from Isao's mouth, his face flushed red with excitement and anger!

Isao didn't hide anything, or rather, there was no point in hiding it. After all, he was about to complete the dream of every Demon Slayer, and he was sure that Shinobu, Kanroji, and every Demon Slayer who followed him to visit Tanjiro's village would tell everything.

Still, Isao knew that this would put Tanjiro into crisis, turning him into a sinner as he had caused him to lose a chance to end Muzan for all.

Yet, every protagonist should face adversity to grow, and Tanjiro needs to learn what he did, or else he will cause more trouble in the future.

As expected, the moment Kagaya heard everything from Isao, he was ready to grab Hashira's katana and cut down this bastard!

"You...! You...! You...!"

The rest of Hashira, who heard Isao's story, also felt complex, wishing to beat up this bastard!

At the same time, Tanjiro never said anything and just prostrated himself as low as possible.

After they returned, Isao didn't take care of Tanjiro and his family since he knew that Shinobu or the others would take care of them. Naturally, they told Tanjiro what he had done, and Tanjiro understood what kind of gravest mistake he had made.

If Tanjiro could save his family that way, then no one would say anything, but the family he had saved was already dead before he made his move.

But well, no matter what, it was impossible for one to stay rational when it came to one's family, so Hashira could only feel conflicted.

Yet, Kagaya was different since he really wished to cut Tanjiro down!

If Isao could kill Muzan, at that time, Kagaya felt like even if Tanjiro and his family were sacrificed, it was all fine. However, he knew that he could do nothing to Tanjiro, and after a while, his hand slumped, and he lost all of his energy, feeling so helpless.

Still, if Isao knew what Kagaya thought, then he would roll his eyes since he didn't want to become a bad guy who could sacrifice everything to achieve his ambition. Well, he was before, but he was about to become a father soon, so he had to change.

Wait, what about before?

Did he not change to become a good person before?

Anyway, it didn't matter.

Let the past be bygone!

"Then, what should we do now...?"

Kagaya sighed helplessly, thinking about what they should do. After all, Muzan had run away, so what could they do to search for him?

"Well, look at the good point; if I could defeat it once, then I could defeat it twice," Isao said, trying to cheer Kagaya up as any good guy would.

"....." Everyone.

Kagaya blinked his eyes as he looked at Isao before he nodded. "You are right." Still, even so, to defeat Muzan, they had to search for this cowardly thing first, but then a thought crossed his mind. Still, he shook his head, then asked, "By the way, why did you go to that village to meet this boy?"

"Oh, I am searching for the remnant of the original breathing."

"Oh..." Kagaya nodded, but then, his eyes widened. "What?"

"What?!"

Others were also dumbfounded, including Kanae, Hinatsuru, Makio, Suma, Shinobu, and everyone else.

"You mean... that strange dance this guy did before was "Sun Breathing?" Shinobu asked speechlessly.

"Yup." Isao nodded, then asked, "Tanjiro, show everyone."

"O-Okay." Tanjiro nodded and quickly showed the dance of the "Sun Breathing."

If it were in the original, all of them would have tried their hardest to kill Nezuko since no one believed that she wouldn't eat a human's flesh and blood.

However, with Isao, it was different since as long as Isao was around, what could Nezuko do?

Isao almost killed Muzan Kibutsuji, a feat that had only been done by the strongest Demon Slayer in history. Many might feel complex, but they knew that he was comparable to Yoriichi Tsugikuni.

However, the fact was like this since Isao was the second existence that could push Muzan Kibutsuji into a crisis.

Still, Isao had to think about Tanjiro now, thinking about whom Tanjiro should learn from.

In the original, Tanjiro met Tomioka, so he learned the "Water Breathing" style, but in the end, this breathing style was meaningless for Tanjiro, who had learned the "Sun Breathing" from an innate, blood, and protagonist halo.

Moreover, instead of following the original, Isao felt that there was one person who was more suitable to teach Tanjiro.

"Shinazugawa, go and teach him," Isao said while looking at the fierce-looking Wind Hashira.

"Ha?! Why should I?!" Sanemi subconsciously answered in a rude way.

"Sanemi..." Kagaya looked at Sanemi helplessly.

While Sanemi quickly bowed down when Kagaya looked at him, he was still stubborn and looked at Isao again, wondering why this bastard asked him to teach a burden?!

Yes, Isao might be powerful and his position might be similar to Kagaya's, but even so, Sanemi wouldn't give up and tried to become stronger, so he could defeat Isao, yet somehow... he felt like it might be little too hard to do.

Still, Isao didn't get angry at Sanemi's rude answer and just said, "His experience is quite similar to yours, so learning under you will be more beneficial for him."

"...."

When Isao gave his answer, everyone fell in silence and felt that there was nothing wrong with Isao's decision.

Sanemi also no longer refused and looked at Tanjiro with a complicated gaze. After all, like Tanjiro, one of his family members had also turned into a demon, but unlike Tanjiro, who decided to protect Nezuko, he killed his mother, who had turned into a demon in the past.

While Sanemi might not say anything, he had to admit that he was quite jealous of Tanjiro, who could meet Isao and save his family, but even so, it didn't mean he had a small heart and wished to release all of his frustration on Tanjiro. Instead, when he heard Isao's answer, he thought that there was no more suitable person to teach Tanjiro than him.

Not in the breathing style, but as someone who had their family become a demon.

"Tanjiro, learn under Shinazugawa well," Isao said.

"I will!" Tanjiro bowed his head at Isao, then bowed his head at Sanemi. "Please take care of me, Sensei!"

Sanemi snorted and said, "I am not your teacher, but I will train you so hard that you wish to die! I won't give you a moment of rest; you will have to—"

"I WILL DO MY BEST!!!"

"....."

Sanemi's lips twitched, thinking that he was going to train Tanjiro well so that Tanjiro wouldn't have the energy to talk so rudely like this.

At the same time, watching their interaction, Isao wondered whether the canon had started.

After all, the story starts when Tanjiro becomes the Demon Slayer, and as he becomes one, the original plot should have started.

'Now, what should I do?'

Isao looked at Kanae, who sat by his side. She had always shown a gentle smile, rubbing her belly softly with affection and anticipation.

"Hmm? What's wrong?"

Kanae looked at Isao curiously.

Isao thought that he had decided to rest first.
