Chapter 34 - Chapter 34: Are You Willing to Become My Disciple?

"Kept my life?"

Emiya Shirou was very confused. He glanced at the large hole nearby; it was the mark left by the Noble Phantasm when it fell.

Gilgamesh hadn't intended to kill him just now; otherwise, with his current body, even a mere 'graze'...

...would likely result in heavy injuries or even instant death.

Thinking of this, cold sweat broke out on Emiya Shirou's forehead. He looked at 'himself' in the video, barely resisting Gilgamesh's attacks with twin swords.

The first thought that surfaced in his mind was: Is this guy really me?

"Phew, that guy actually left." Tohsaka Rin quietly breathed a sigh of relief, while also feeling it was a bit strange.

He actually just left like that. One must know that in the video, he was very easily angered, as if he would kill someone the moment anything displeased him.

It seemed like he wanted to kill people just for speaking out of turn.

Now, seeing him mention the 'multiverse projection,' Tohsaka Rin knew he had already seen that video.

Unexpectedly, after seeing that video, Gilgamesh actually let Emiya Shirou go.

Doesn't he know that his Arm will be sliced off by him in the future?

Tohsaka Rin looked at the spot where Gilgamesh had disappeared, clearly quite puzzled, but she soon looked at Emiya Shirou and sighed. "You've noticed it too—there's a massive gap between Servants and humans."

"Even though that guy didn't fight you head-on and merely threw a Noble Phantasm, I'm sure you felt the approach of despair."

When Tohsaka Rin said this, Emiya Shirou nodded slightly, indicating that it was indeed so.

Because just now, he had indeed felt that unimaginable despair.

This wasn't the kind of despair one felt when facing some particularly famous thugs or fighting ten people at once.

It was the despair of being on completely different levels.

"..."

Seeing Emiya Shirou nod in agreement with her, Tohsaka Rin felt even more helpless. That being said, how on earth did you release Innate Territory later and slice off Gilgamesh's Arm?

However, she believed that the gold-shining guy probably held the same thought, which was why he spared her and Emiya Shirou's lives.

Things were likely as she thought; after all, anyone who could become a Servant possessed their own pride and self-esteem to some degree.

This Gilgamesh, known as the 'king of heroes,' likewise had his own dignity.

If Emiya Shirou were the 'Emiya Shirou' from the video, she believed he would decisively move in for the kill to eliminate the person who dared to slice off his Arm in the future.

But now, Emiya Shirou didn't even know about the Holy Grail War or Servants, and his strength was very weak.

Gilgamesh could throw a Noble Phantasm at random, and he wouldn't have the strength to block it.

At this moment, Gilgamesh returned to the church, shed his golden armor, put on a suit, and then lay on the sofa to open the multiverse projection, clicking into the video ranking the top ten most hot-blooded famous scenes.

As soon as he entered the video, Gilgamesh went into the comments section.

As a result, as soon as he entered the comments, he saw Kibutsuji Muzan talking about his Arm getting sliced off!

This caused a cold sneer to appear on Gilgamesh's face, and the killing intent in his eyes could hardly be suppressed. He felt it was time to deal with that Kibutsuji Muzan.

This guy was truly too annoying. He was clearly a corpse, yet he didn't act like one and stay quietly in a coffin.

Instead, he jumped out of the coffin and was leaping around like a clown.

Then this King shall personally take action for the first time in a long while and grind this corpse to dust! So that he can never make another sound.

Leaving the Type-Moon/Fate World aside for now.

At this moment, in the Demon Slayer World.

After watching the first four rankings, Tanjiro and the others felt something burning inside them.

They felt they couldn't just keep staying here and watching the video.

They had to train! They had to make themselves even stronger!!!

Just like in the video!!

"Aaaaaah! This is too hot-blooded!"

Even Agatsuma Zenitsu, who had always been rather lazy, rolled over on the bed and continued watching the video excitedly, saying, "I want to be as strong as them too."

"If I do, Grandpa will surely be proud of me, and then maybe I can become the dream lover of countless young girls!"

"Hahahahaha!!!"

Thinking of this, Agatsuma Zenitsu burst into wild laughter, while Tanjiro showed a look of being caught between laughter and tears.

As expected of Zenitsu... his dream of becoming stronger is so simple.

"Yes! As strong as Tanjiro." From the nostrils of the boar head worn by Inosuke, two streams of white steam sprayed out; he was also already boiling with excitement.

Tanjiro's previous performance had made him feel very hot-blooded, and the subsequent performances of Tatsumi and Emiya Shirou were the same.

"Yo, it's great to see you all so spirited."

At this time, a figure that Tanjiro found quite familiar appeared. He walked into the room and looked at Tanjiro with a very sunny smile.

"Um, you are?!!!!" Tanjiro looked at the newcomer, his eyes widening slightly in great surprise. "A Hashira?!"

That's right, Tanjiro had met him once before. Like his senior Giyu Tomioka, he was one of the highest combat powers of the Demon Slayer Corps, a Hashira!

"A Hashira?!" X2.

Both Inosuke and Agatsuma Zenitsu were very surprised by this. Although the Insect Hashira had also come to check on their injuries a few days ago...

...they also knew that the Hashira in the Demon Slayer Corps were top-tier combatants who had many missions to perform.

Under normal circumstances, they wouldn't appear before Demon Slayer members, let alone come to visit a few Mizunoto-ranked members.

The newcomer was naturally Rengoku Kyojuro, who had previously said he wanted to take Tanjiro as his Disciple. His eyes gazed at Tanjiro like flames as he smiled and said, "That's right, I am the Flame Hashira—Rengoku Kyojuro."

"Ehhhhh!!!!!"

Hearing the other party admit his identity so readily, Agatsuma Zenitsu appeared exceptionally surprised. He looked at him and said with a bit of a stutter, "Then-then-then... do you have some business here with us?"

With a 'Hashira' suddenly arriving, Agatsuma Zenitsu was still quite nervous.

After all, a Hashira wouldn't come over for no reason. Could it be that he wanted to kill the cute Nezuko?

Ah, although he could understand the Demon Slayer Corps' obsession with killing demons, Nezuko-chan was different.

Just as Agatsuma Zenitsu was wildly imagining things.

Rengoku Kyojuro looked at Tanjiro and smiled. "I saw your battle through the multiverse projection. Very beautiful attacks, and the Sun Breathing you used—I have also seen amazing potential in you."

"So the purpose of my coming here is very simple."

After saying that, Rengoku Kyojuro reached out his hand and looked at Tanjiro very spiritedly. "And that is: are you willing to become my Disciple?"
