Killing the Red Eyes: Time Travel with the Demon Slayer Breathing Technique

"Is this kid the one who defeated the leader of Oberg?" Bude asked as he walked up to Chu Yufan.

"Yes. Gozzi replied.

"Hello, Your Excellency. Chu Yufan said politely, and then stretched out his hand to him.

"......" looked at the calm Chu Yufan, and Bude also stretched out his hand to hold it.

“...... You, very strong. I didn't expect to grow up in the wild mountains and have such results, are you interested in joining my command?" Bude asked Chu Yufan after holding his hand for a while.

"I'm not interested in this for the time being, I'm sorry, General. Chu Yufan didn't think about refusing directly, which made Bude a little surprised.

After all, those positions under his command were all positions where everyone else had to sit on their scalps, but Chu Yufan directly refused.

"Is that so...... It's a shame. Bud didn't open his mouth again, after all, as a general, he has his own arrogance, and he is not a casual general like Estes.

General Bud, the "strongest" man in the Empire on a par with General Estes. Unlike Estes, who likes to fight non-stop, General Bud is a man of integrity who is dedicated to serving the Empire.

As a central figure in imperial politics, of course. General Bud was naturally aware of what Minister Earnest was doing.

However, because of following the ancestral teachings left by the previous emperor, [military generals cannot interfere in politics], so they did not interfere directly. Instead, he used his authority to shelter the officials of the conscience.

And because of his personality, General Bud is often referred to as "old stubborn" by ministers Estes and Ornest.

"Next, I will personally practice with you.

Except

for Chu Yufan, everyone else felt very surprised, after all, it was the personal training of the top general of the empire.

"However, if you want to ...... mission

," "Don't worry, there won't be any more missions for the time being." Because the remnants of Oberg have been wiped out, you can increase your strength in peace during this time. Gozzi explained to the crowd.

"Okay, so today is just a brief introduction to each other, and everyone will gather here for training starting tomorrow. With that, Bud made a beautiful turn and left the training ground.

"Whew! It is worthy of being a general, and this sense of oppression is not something that ordinary people can have. Green breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Bud walk away.

"I wonder what the general's training will be like?" said Boni curiously.

"Stupid, won't we find out tomorrow?" Nahasiu complained to Bonnie.

"But people are just curious~" Bonnie patted Nahasiu's back vigorously and said.

"Anyway, it should be a lot easier than Chu Yufan's training. Green said.

"My training was not easy, so I'm sorry. Chu Yufan rolled his eyes and said.

Isn't it just carrying a few logs, pushing rocks or something?

"But I didn't expect that the general would train us personally. Nahasiu said.

"yes, I didn't expect that either. It's just a casual please, but I didn't expect to really agree. Gozzi replied.

"Okay, take a break today, and tomorrow we will officially start training and disband

!" ———

"Father!" "

Hmm, it's Red Hitomi, what's the matter?" Gozzi asked when he looked back at Red Hitomi.

"When Hitomi and I were caught by the enemy, Hitomi Kuro's reaction after the drug was cut off was very strange. Is there really no problem with taking that medicine?" asked Akatomi.

“...... As long as you don't stop taking the medication, there is no problem.

"But, let her continue to take that medicine......

" "It's a strengthening pill, and to put it bluntly, it's protecting her." If it weren't for this drug, your sister would have died before she could see you again. Gozzi explained.

"If you have to take medicine to fight, then don't fight at all!"

I'll ...... it" "Is this what Hitomi said herself? Did Hitomi herself say she didn't want to fight?" Gozzi's question interrupted Hitomi Aka's half-talk.

"I know, Red Hitomi, you're trying to say that you're going to fight instead of Black Hitomi, aren't you? However, this kind of thing must respect her own wishes, and her will to continue the mission must not be wasted. "

“...... Will...... ......," Chi Hitomi said softly, lowering her head.

"If you heard that your life was in danger during the mission, and asked you not to go, would you give up because of it?" Gozzi asked again.

“...... No.

"Yes, it is precisely because you are doing this kind of task that you must treat the will as an important thing. "

......

" "Is there anything else you'd like to ask?" asked Gozzi.

"No

......" "...... Really?" Gozzi gave him a deep look at the red pupils and left.

"If I ask my father about the file, I guess I'll get a similar answer......" Akatomi thought to herself as she looked at Gozzi's back.

"You didn't even ask me about the Empire...... Don't you want to ask again? Or maybe it......" Gozzi thought as he walked down the hallway.

“...... She had to be given the next task as soon as possible, and letting her be idle would only make her cranky. Gozzi went to the office where Nishinomiya was and walked in, where the bald head Bill happened to be.

Nishinomiya was an assistant to Minister Earnest and one of the main figures who instigated the state to do whatever he wanted.

"Thank you for your kind words to General Bud. Gozzi said respectfully.

"He himself likes to train young people, so it's not that difficult. Nishinomiya replied with a smile.

"It occurred to me that there were thieves of all kinds, all kinds of thieves were spreading all over the empire. Bill said suddenly.

"I've heard reports of this as well, and in some places the army has come forward to defeat the thieves. Nishinomiya said.

"Leaders with good cohesion will become tricky targets if they don't get it done quickly. Bill said.

"I have made it clear that they must deal with the objects that need to be dealt with as soon as possible. "

“...... As the leader of the assassination force, we also want to attack as soon as possible, but there are not enough spies to provide information right now. Gozzi spoke out about his difficulties.

"Wait another month, I've already started recruiting private soldiers from all over the country who can be secret detectives. Nishinomiya held his chin with one hand and said confidently.

"Private soldiers?"

"Nishinomiya-sama has private territories all over the country that can be called paradise, and just like you, he cultivates all kinds of talents like assassins. Bill explained.

"Such a thing...... Gozzi's face couldn't help but be a little solemn when he heard this.

"Of course I can, with my power and the imperial tools in my hands. Nishinomiya said as he pulled out a book.

The book "Longo Longo" is a collection of maps of the whole world, and there are certain records of each country. Especially in the empire, all resources, relics, products, etc. are recorded in great detail. At the end of the page, there is even a prophecy of supernatural disasters that may occur in the future of the Empire.

"It's a great tool, I have to use it for state affairs. It takes a lot of power to use this knowledge, but I'm not a big man yet, so I can't mobilize the soldiers of the empire without permission......

"In order to have enough combat power to fight when absolutely necessary." In order to protect the empire and protect my own important people, I set up a private army. Nishinomiya explained to Gozzi with a serious face.

“...... In other words, he intends to become the next minister. As long as it's all for the Empire. Gozzi thought to himself.

"Therefore, you need not be in a hurry. I'm replenishing the Secret Investigators, and I know better than anyone the importance of a unit that can operate in the shadows. The idea of assassinating the troops was put forward by Uncle Ben. Nishinomiya said with a smile.

———

, "Isn't he afraid of being suspicious of the minister?" Gozzi and Bill returned to their rooms after bidding farewell to the West Palace.

"You don't have to worry about that, the minister knows everything, he knows very well that this man will not threaten him. Bill explained.

“...... It's really scary in the palace. Forget it, at least act in advance, that's enough. Gozzi said.

"Be careful, when you are negligent, it is the most dangerous time. Bill reminded.

"......"

Gozzi heard this, and fell into deep thought.
