Controlling the Butterfly Effect from Demon Slayer

Hori Gaku was really pissed off by the system.

This damn system talks about fate all the time. The so-called fate is actually the plot. The so-called balance of fate means that the fighting power between the good guys and the bad guys needs to be balanced.

Because only when the fighting power is balanced can the demons and the pillars be destroyed after the final battle.

"Damn it! This is outrageous!

I didn’t come here just to pick up girls. I came here to save the tragedies one by one! And you’re trying to use the Pillar Slayer Blade trick on me. Believe it or not, I’m done with it!"

Hori Gaku cursed the system in his mind.

The system patiently explained:

"The host does not need to worry. The host's existence is not in destiny, so destiny cannot interfere with the impact caused by the host. It will only produce various butterfly effects.

For positive butterfly effects, the system will not remind the host, nor will it trigger tasks, but negative butterfly effects will.

For example, in this mission, the host became a pillar, disrupting the plot and affecting destiny. The negative butterfly effect caused is that it is difficult for Kanroji Mitsuri to become a pillar.

It is precisely because the host is not in destiny that only if the host helps, the possibility of Kanroji Mitsuri becoming a pillar will increase."

The system talked a lot, and although Horitake understood it, he was too lazy to listen:

"Okay, okay! I'll take this mission. There's no time limit for this mission, right?"

"There is no explicit time limit, but if the host keeps dragging it out and Mitsuri Kanroji has not become a pillar before the final battle, the mission will be considered a failure."

"Don't worry, this won't happen. I will definitely help my own woman.

Oh, and here's the reward for this mission. What is this substitute doll?"

"It’s hard to say now, but the system will assure the host that it is a good thing."

"Well, I believe you on this point. So far, the system has not given you anything that I don't have."

After accepting the task, Hori Gaku began to think about how to complete this task.

In order to make Mitsuri a pillar, only two aspects need to be met.

First, Mitsuri's strength needs to meet the standard.

This is easy to say. If Mitsuri's strength is not enough, she would not become a pillar in the original work. At most, Hori Gaku can train her again.

Second, the merit is enough, and a sufficient number or strong enough demons need to be killed.

This is also easy to say.

Hori Gaku plans to take Mitsuri to do the task.

Take Mitsuri to kill dozens of demons, or find a lower crescent of the twelve demons and let her kill it, and the matter will be done.

Thinking of this, Hori Gaku looked around and found that his crow was standing on the eaves next to him, as if on standby.

Waving his hand, Hori Gaku let the crow fly to his shoulder, fed it a berry, and asked:

"Do I have any mission recently?"

The crow shouted at the top of his voice:

"Gah! There is no mission that requires you to go out in person, but if you are willing to take the initiative to go out, the Demon Slayer Corps will do its best to provide you with information about demons."

"Oh, I see."

After thinking for a while, Horitake said to the crow:

"Please help me pass a message to Mitsuri, asking her to come to the Demon Slayer Corps headquarters to find me. I plan to take her on missions with me, help her train and help her gain more merits."

"Is that all? Lord Horitake!? Gah!"

"That's all, go ahead."

The crow cackled a few more times, flapped its wings and flew away, quickly flying in one direction.

Just as the crow flew away, Goto arrived.

This guy trotted over, faced Horitake, and said respectfully:

"Lord Horitake!"

"Oh, it's Goto, what's up? Or does the master have any instructions?"

"That's right, Lord Horitake. Each of the pillars can choose a house in the Demon Slayer Corps headquarters as their residence. This is one of the benefits of our Demon Slayer Corps.

As a pillar, you also have such benefits.

There are quite a few empty and relatively large houses in the headquarters. Please let me take you to have a look.

If you like any of them, you can buy it directly without spending a penny. From now on, that house is yours!"

Hearing such benefits, Hori Gaku was a little excited.

In his previous life, he had planned to apply for a mortgage and become a house slave, but he didn't expect that he could live in a free house in this life, and not only live in it, but the house became his own!

The benefits of the Demon Slayer Corps are really good! Thumbs up!

At this time, Hori Gaku's eyes changed when he looked at Goto. He felt that this guy was no longer a little follower around the boss, but... a diligent salesperson in some real estate companies.

Isn't that right? Goto's diligent look now is especially like a real estate salesperson who has met a big client and taken the big client to see a villa.

I don't know why, after Hori Gaku had this idea, his vanity was greatly satisfied.

Suddenly, Hori Gaku thought of something and asked Goto:

"Goto, is the big house next to the Butterfly House empty now?"

Goto was a little stunned, but still nodded:

"I have time, Lord Horitake wants……"

Patting Goto's shoulder, Horitake gave him a knowing smile between men:

"The one who is close to the water gets the moon first, right? Goto, you must understand this principle."

Goto rubbed his hands and smiled similar to Horitake:

"I understand! I understand! Lord Horitake, I understand! Please! It’s over there!"

So, Goto led Horitake towards the Butterfly House.

As they walked, Goto could still hear Horitake mumbling:

"If I wasn't easily misunderstood as a gigolo, I would just stay in the Butterfly House, but now it's not bad to be neighbors with Sister Shinobu."

Hearing this, Goto couldn't help but say to Horitake:

"Mr. Horitake, you should see this house before you draw any conclusions. What if this house is not to your liking?"

"As long as it's not too outrageous, I don't mind any kind of house. I think a mansion built in the headquarters of the Demon Slayer Corps can't be outrageous, right?"

"That's it... We're here, Lord Horitake, please come in!"

Goto led Horitake to the house next to the Butterfly House. He found the key and opened the door very quickly, inviting Horitake in. When

Horitake walked in, the first thing he saw was a large Japanese-style courtyard with flowers, trees, rocks and pools. The environment of this courtyard was elegant and comfortable.

The first impression was good.

Horitake looked at the main body of the house again. It was a common Japanese two-story building. From the outside, the house was grand and steady, which was very consistent with Horitake's temperament. (?)

Horitake walked into the house. The interior decoration was also very good, which was very much in line with Horitake's wishes. The only thing that made Horitake a little dissatisfied was...

This house was not fully decorated, and it was not the kind that could be moved in with a suitcase. There were many details missing.

For example, there were no bedding in the bedroom, no pots and pans in the kitchen, no toiletries in the bathroom... and so on.

Goto saw Horitake's hesitation and explained quickly:

"Lord Horitake, this is the only shortcoming of this house. It will take a few days to help you buy these things.……"

"No problem, it's just a matter of a few days, I can wait.

I like this house, and I like the neighbors here.

Goto, I'd like to trouble you to buy these things for me in the next few days, and I also need you to thank the head of the family for me."

"No, no, Lord Horitake, I hope you like it here.

Oh, by the way, may I ask, where are you staying these days, Lord Horitake?"

"Of course, I stayed at the Butterfly House next door.……"Speaking of this, Horitake suddenly remembered something:"Wait! Did that bastard Fuzugawa Miya go to the Butterfly House to recuperate? Could he occupy my room?"
