Chapter 3 Going to Demons Slayer?

*ding*

[First Multiversal Travel:] [World: Demons Slayer]

[Timeline: Rehabilitation Training Arc], [Mission: Fight for either the Demons or Humans.]

[Goal: Only one faction left alive.]

[Reward: Depends on which faction you choose.]

[Time limit: 6 months]

[Time in the main world: Stopped]

[Accept/Reject]

`Should I accept? ´ was what Noah thought when he looked at the details.

`In the end, I only get advantages, because time stands still in the main world anyway.`

`Besides, I could gain combat experience.`

In the last week, Noah had one problem.

Opponents who can fly.

Since Noah doesn't have ranged attacks yet and can't fly, he almost lost some fights.

However, he has used a simple tactic against opponents who can fly.

Due to his superhuman strength he is able to jump several meters high, but he never gives his best and lets the opponent misjudge his jumping limit.

This simple but effective tactic has cost a few opponents their lives.

After a short moment of consideration, he decided to accept, but not before looking at his stats again.

Status

[Cultivation Realm: Foundation Realm 8 (1800/32000)]

[Combat progress: Low-Class-intermediate] (only with his body + sword art)

[Qi Absorption: 10/minute [LV1(2/10)]

[Passive Qi Absorption: 10/h [LV1(0/20)]

In the last week he has killed 5 Stray Devils, which is quite a lot when you think about the fact that the city is guarded by 2 Kings.

This gave him 10 kill points, which he put into passive Qi Absorb.

Thereby he has unlocked the first level, and now gets 10/h without doing anything.

It is slower than active, but he can train other things on the side.

His Cultivation has improved from Foundation 3 to Foundation 8.

His Combat Progress has increased to Low-Class-intermediate.

His body is extremely strong, but what he lacks is a strong attack.

Even though most low-class beings can't do anything to him, it's a different story for mid-class beings.

Without an element or his Qi control Noah still has little chance against real Mid-Class-Being.

For that, his D-rank sword doesn't do enough damage to bodies of mid-rank beings.

Satisfied with his progress, he decided to accept the mission.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Location ??????? Demon Slayer World

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"Where am I" said Noah in a dizzy tone.

Because it was Noah's first world travel, he was taken over by the side effects.

Mainly dizziness.

"Oh, it's at night? Not a good sign."

In order to check out his status, Noah decided to climb a tree first.

Status

[Combat progress: Mid-Uppermoon]

Not exactly pleasant, but acceptable.

In this world, demon have powers called demon arts.

And humans are using breathing arts.

*ssssssh

While Noah was thinking about his plans, he suddenly heard a rustling from a bush.

Immediately he realized what it was.

The word `Demon` immediately came into Noah's mind.

When Noah looked at the bush he saw a demon with 2 horns on his head. He also had sharp teeths and a wrinkled face.

[Inspect:]

[Name: Demon Mob]

[Race: Demon]

[Age: 44]

[Combat Progress: Low-Level Demon]

[Skills:] [Mixed Martial Art(E)]

"Eh" was the first reaction when he saw the Demon's status.

Noah wasted no time, jumping from the tree while taking out his sword from his inventory to stab the Demon in the head from above.

However, Noah now asked himself one question: `how do I kill him?`

In Demon Slayer, Demons can only be killed by the sun or by Nichin weapons.

Of course, Noah had neither, which left him only one option. Waiting. Lots of waiting.

5 hours later

"Finally" Noah groaned as the Demon was finally made into BBQ.

[Demon killed +1 Kill point]

`Only 1 point? At least I can openly kill demons in this world. Next, I should become a Demon Slayer, since I can easily train my sword skills there.`

`Where can I get a Nichin sword now?`

[Store]

[Weapon]

[Demons Slayer]

[Nichin-Blade(D), Durability 500/500, 50 Shop points]

[Nichin-Axe(D), Durability 500/500, 50 Shop points]

[Nichin-Spear(D), Durability 500/500, 50 Shop points]

`Oh, there are also other weapons made of Nichin.`

`Well, not really surprising, when even in the original not everyone used swords.`

`I have enough store points, good.`

`Which one do I buy? `

Sword is standard, and there are already many techniques that I can learn.

Axe? Unusual, but it does not suit me.

Hm, then only the spear would be left.

Spear sounds good, though I would have to develop my own techniques, but I could invent one that suits me.

However, a spear is usable from several angles, and can be used flexibly.

Besides, I have always liked a spear more.

What Noah noticed is that there are no techniques in the store.

`Maybe I have to get stronger first`

[-50 Shop points]

`Do I even need to join the Demons Slayer since I already have a Nichin-spear anyway.`

What are the advantages and disadvantages?

If I join I would have a salary, training partners and other resources.

However, I would be tied to the Demons Slayer corps.

Though I could kill a Lowermoon and become a Pillar directly.

I could go to the Mugen train and try to kill Lowermoon 1, but then I would have to fight Akaza.

Since it's the beginning of the Rehabilitation Training Arc, I could practice for a while and then decide.

After Noah made his decision, he took the Spear out of his inventory.

When Noah examined the spear, he liked the shape of the Spear.

The spear shaft was about 2m long. The tip was double sided and made of nichin.

What he liked the most was the weight.

The spear was relatively light, weighting about 500g.

Noah immediately tried out some poses that he had seen before.

He took the spear by the middle of the shaft and swung it carefully.

Next to him were trees everywhere, but Noah didn't let that stop him.

When he rotated, he noticed a thin tree.

Noah ran towards it, and just before he touched it with the spear, he shifted his weight and split the thin tree in two.

*ding*

[New Skill:[Spear Mastery Beginner(E)]

`Perfect, there he is.`

`I should have used less force and a better angle` Noah thought when he saw a slight split in the tree trunk.

I still have to choose a training method for the coming period.

After some thought, Noah decided to split the day.

1st part: training: spear training + demon hunting(at night)

2nd part: meditation

3rd part: have a rest and collect information.

As the sun has already risen Noah decided to train with the spear for the next two hours.

two hours later

Noah decided to look at his progress.

[Spear Mastery Beginner(E)(10%)]

In the last few hours, Noah has increased his progress by 10%.

He has not done much, he has just cut through thin trees.

However, the difference is clear, as the cut is now cleaner than before.

In these two hours, he learned which posture he has to take.

After a short check, Noah chose to visit a town.

20 minutes later

In a forest, a shadow can be seen moving through the trees.

The shadow is none other than Noah, who is moving from tree to tree for a better overview.

When he looked into the distance, he saw a town.

Even though Noah had now found a city, he had one problem.

His clothes. Since the mission came suddenly, he could not pack suitable clothes.

"Fuck clothes! Who cares if they think I'm strange. I just buy new clothes there."

Noah decided to give a fuck about the clothes.

Why should he care what others think about him.

10 minutes later

At a busy market, a young man can be seen wearing clothes that are not common here, which drew all the attraction to him.

Noah decided to ignore the looks, and went to a clothing shop.

There he asked if he could exchange his clothes for money.

Since Noah's clothes were the best quality he had ever seen, he accepted the offer.

When he had the money, he directly bought a new outfit consisting of a white tshirt, black haori and black matching pants. As shoes he bought normal white sandals.

What immediately attracted his attention was that they were extremely comfortable.

After Noah changed his clothes, he decided to blend into the crowd and visit a well-attended restaurant.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Restaurant

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

When Noah walked into the restaurant, he noticed a table with a couple of drunk men sitting at the table.

Noah decided that he would go for the table, because getting a drunken man is the best way to get information.

"Excuse me?" Noah asked with a nice face.

"What do you want?" replied one of the men.

The man who answered was about Noah's height, and was bald.

"Hello, I'm new in town and would like to make some friends."

"Friends?" asked the bald man.

Noah answered with, "Just a minute."

At the next moment Noah called to a waiter, "We'd like another round of beer."

When Noah turned back, he said to the bald man, "Of course, it's on me."

Pleased to get free alcohol, they immediately welcomed Noah into their circle.

"What's your name brother?" Asked the bald man in a drunken voice.

"Noah, just Noah" answered Noah.

"Noah you're really not from around here huh?" He replied with a laugh.

"No, I'm from further away, but it doesn't matter now."

"What is your name?" Noah asked in a voice as if they had been brothers for years.

"Call me Goto. Just Goto."

"Well, brother Goto, let's all drink," said Noah as the alocohl arrived.

30 minutes later

"hahaha "

A loud laugh could be heard through the restaurant

The reason?

Noah has been telling his new brothers the biggest bullshit for the last 30 minutes.

They liked it though

"What happened after that" one of the men asked

"Not much, he died." Noah answered flatly.

"hahaha deserved"

In the last 30 minutes Noah did everything he could to get the men even more drunk.

With success, may be mentioned.

Now it's time to squeeze these mens.

"Brother Goto I heard there are demons here, is that true?"

Noah asked Goto.

"Demons, there was a rumor once, but no one has ever seen one."

"A rumor? can you tell me more" Noah asked with interest.

Goto has his head lying on the table as he looked up to Noah.

"4 months ago children disappeared without a trace until today they have not been found."

"That's it?" Noah asked disappointedly.

"Some men came and said they were from a Demons Slayer organization. We thought they were crazy. After they left, however, no child vanished."

"The subject became taboo after that."

"Ok, thank you."

"Waiter another round of beer" said Noah loudly.

"I'm going to the bathroom," Noah said to Goto as he excused himself.

20 min later

The waiter came to the table with the bill.

"Who pays?" the waiter asked.

The men answered together, "our friend who is on the toilet."

"Do you mean the one with long silver hair?" the waiter asked

"Yes, why?"

"He has already left the restaurant 20 minutes ago and said that you pay for him."

BaSTard!!! Goto shouted through the restaurant, still drunk.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------

POV Change

----------------------------------------------------------------------------

"Idiots, did they really think I was going to buy them a drink" said a young man in black kaori laughing up a tree while looking at the restaurant and seeing the men storming out angrily.
