DS : Chapter 32
🕑 Added 2024-09-04 14:15:27 +0000 UTC [Seiji's POV]
"Oh, you're done already."
A face without flaw was a rare find when you have eyes like mine, and she was one of those rare finds. Even the parts you thought were flawed, when they came together on her, they made a very pretty face.
She was beautiful.
She greatly resembled Shinobu from the anime except she had different eyes and she was taller. Her mannerisms and behaviour were also similar.
She was hot, in an 'onee-san' kinda way if you know what I mean.
And also..
"She's going to die."
"Excuse me?" Kanae said.
Shit, did I say that out loud.
"Sorry, it's nothing." I said before whispering, "I won't let it happen anyway."
The whole point of my existence was to change destiny for the better. The story of Demon Slayer won't end as tragically as it did and I won't let everyone die.
That's one of the reason why I fight - to create a better and brighter future.
"Can I help you with something?" I asked Kanae.
There was no one else in the compound as all of the Hashiras had left to continue thier missions. Well, everyone left except for Kanae who for some reason was waiting for me.
She giggled softly, "No, not me. It's you that needs help."
She then walked towards me much to my nervousness, and only stopped with an inch separating us. She was so close that I could feel the aura of beauty and sexiness from her.
She was 5'6 feet tall and that meant she was taller than me.
She simply smiled, not only with her lips but somehow with her eyes. She was expecting me to say something, to ask for help I'd assume.
But what came out was far more honest.
"Step on me."
That threw her for a loop.
It was a bit perverse of me but honestly, who could blame me? She was a beautiful onee-san and she was taller than me. Many people paid for these types of things and I was just asking, no harm done. I'm not a simp.
Besides, she won't get it anyway.
"You need medical attention as soon as possible." she said, shrugging off the nonsense I have been spewing till now.
What she said was true. I might act fine but in reality, I couldn't be further from being okay. I still had internal injuries from last night and my fight with Sanemi definitely did not help either.
"How did you know?"
"Well, first of all, I am a doctor." she said, "And I have a special set of eyes you see, just like you."
I stared into her pale violet eyes. They shone with a dim magical light and the pattern in her eyes almost resembled a flower.
I remembered that Flower Breathing had a lot to do with the eyes of the user. The final form of Flower Breathing even enhanced the user's vision so that they could see the world in slow motion.
So in a way, there was indeed a similarity between us. What I was born with, she achieve a fraction of it through her breathing style.
Hmm, that makes me wonder how effective the Flower Breathing would be coupled with my eyes.
"I want you to follow me back to the Flower Mansion so that I can give you treatment." she said, but her body language and the way she phrased it made it seem like I didn't have a choice.
She seemed to be the type to take her profession seriously, not allowing to see people hurt without lending help, as a perfect doctor would do.
Regardless, why in the world would I refuse?
"I'd be very thankful Lady Kanae." I said with a bow.
"Please don't call me that, just Kanae would do. We are colleagues after all."
"I'll keep that in mind Kanae."
"Well then, let's leave immediately." She said with a smile.
It seemed I would fulfil the promise I made to Shinbu sooner than expected. I'm sure she won't expect to see me again so soon.
Kanae and I left the Demon Slayer Corps headquarters and headed towards the Flower Mansion. The place was not that far away from the headquarters.
It took us only a few hours to reach the mansion. If I had to guess the distance between them, it was only around 25 km at most.
The flower mansion, unlike the headquarters, was hidden inside the thick vegetation of the mountains. The computed itself was also smaller but the mansion was bigger.
The place had a very peaceful and calming vibe to it, perfect for recovering patients. My eyes pierced through the walls of the mansion and I noticed many injured demon slayers inside. I guess the mansion was like a hospital of sorts for the Demon Slayer Corp.
The workers greeted her warmly, with smiles and respect, as we entered the compound. Kanae led me to the patient room of the mansion where she herself immediately gave me treatment.
Most of my injuries were internal so I was given pills and medical herbs to help my recovery. She also applied ointments on my arms which were apparently fractured before she wrapped them up in bandages,
She was extremely professional while she worked, prompting me to not strike up a conversation, which was not really an issue since I wouldn't be able to start a conversation anyway.
After all the treatments were done, Kanae told me to rest on the bed and she advised me not to be in action for a few days.
I had no problem with that.
I had been constantly fighting due to my speedrunning but since I finally accomplished my goal, I think I deserve rest.
Although I would like to go around the compound and search for Shinobu, I put the task for my future self. Right now, I just want to sleep and rest.
And so I did.

[3rd POV]
The chapter was short but it ended with a satisfying conclusion without any cliffhanger. It would be awkward to add more content to the chapter but it is still way shorter than the average chapter.
So let us take this chance to see how people thought of our boy Seiji.
1. Ubuyashiki Kagaya :
He thinks Seiji Shigan is a boy with a good heart who was greatly wronged by the world. His story and his disability reminded him of Gyomei and he also believed that Seiji has the potential to be as strong as the Stone Hashira, if not more.
He had been keeping eyes on Seiji since he became popular as a Kendo Prodigy because Ubuyashiki was madly on a lookout for talents. So he also knows about his incredible feats. The fact that Seiji was able to master breathing styles in a matter of weeks made him think that they might be seeing the second coming of a genius like Yoriichi.
If Seiji was not going to join the Demon Slayer Corp on his own, Ubuyashiki thought of inviting the talented swordsman after he had grown up. He knew about how his parents were killed by demons as well.
....
2. Shinjuro Rengoku :
He is jealous of geniuses such as Seiji Shigan. He thought that maybe if he was as talented as them, he could've saved so many more people.
But overall, he had a good impression of Seiji since he was friends with his son Kyojiro Rengoku. He wished to see these two boys lead the Demon Slayer corps in the future.
....
3. Gyomei Himejima :
He is saddened to see yet another young boy becoming a demon slayer. He thinks it is his job to protect everyone - especially children - and he wishes to create a world where kids do not have to fight.
He acknowledged Seiji's talent and strength. He was the only person amongst the Hashira to realise just how special Seiji was. Gyomei noticed immediately the perfect movements Seiji had.
His presence was unlike anything he had ever felt before. It reminded him of the vibrations of rhythmic music.
...
4. Giyu Tomioka :
He doesn't really care much but he admires real Hashiras like Seiji. He is greatly impressed by Seiji's fighting style and thought of inviting him to learn Water Breathing if he truly is able to learn multiple breathings. Maybe the Demon Slayer Corp would finally have a worthy Water Hashria then.
Seeing someone nearly 3 years younger than him be that strong and reaching Hashira inspired him to train harder again and made him realize he couldn't slack off while he held on to the title of Hashira.
...
5. Uzui Tengen :
He likes it better when Seiji use Thunder Breathing because it is flashier. He is impressed by Seiji's speed.
But other than that, he thinks Seiji has darkness in his heart. He seems to have quite a lot of unresolved issues and he was running away from the past by rushing to the future, kinda like what he was doing.
He thinks it's too bad Seiji did not have three amazing wives to help him like he did.
...
6. Kanae Kocho :
Sees him as a younger brother since he was around the same age as her sister. It was too soon to judge him yet but she thinks he had girts to be able to endure injuries like he did,
She was quite shocked to learn that he was deaf and wanted to know how he managed to live so normally and even become a great warrior with such a handicap.
She wondered if she should teach him flower breathing due to his enhanced eyes but also thought that it might not suit him since he would lack the lightness and flexibility of a female body.
...
7. Sanemi Shinazugawa :
He really doesn't like the dude. Seiji reminds him of Giyu with his calm demeanour and his aloof attitude as if he was above the rest of the world. He doesn't think he could trust someone so stoic.
But he respects Seiji's talent and strength but also wants to beat him and humble him.
