"Ah... you are so arrogant, I'm going to beat you up!!!"

Muichiro's seemingly arrogant attitude made Inosuke rush forward with a look of displeasure on his face.

The angry Inosuke waved his fist, and he went up!

Bang!

Muichiro's speed was so fast that Inosuke's eyesight couldn't keep up, and he raised his hand and knocked him out with a sword strike.

Then, Muichiro, who was only 160cm tall, flicked his long hair and turned around to leave.

"I-no-suke-!!"

Tanjiro and Zenitsu rushed forward to help Inosuke up with sad expressions on their faces.

"..."

Xia Qing did not look at them, but placed his eyes on Wuyilang's back, and then took steps to follow.

In fact, he also wanted to see what Muichiro was going to use the key to open.

Muichiro Tokitoru, a boy who was only fourteen years old, became a swordsman genius after only holding a sword for two months. He was always in a daze and would quickly forget about insignificant things.

Such a cold personality is due to Muichiro's lack of emotion caused by his amnesia, which is why he is often in a daze and treats others indifferently.

Before joining the Demon Slayer Corps, Muichiro's mother died of pneumonia when he was ten years old, and his father fell off a cliff to collect herbs for his wife's medical treatment during a typhoon. Therefore, the only one who depended on him for life was his twin brother, Tokichiro Ichiro. .

However, Ichiro has a bad character and likes to speak out. He always scolds his younger brother Muichiro for being useless. Even his catchphrase is "Muichiro's "wu" is "incompetent" without".

But in fact, Ichiro was worried that Muichiro, who wanted to join the Demon Slayer Corps, might die because of it, so he deliberately used harsh words to suppress Muichiro's ideas. For this reason, Ichiro repeatedly visited the lord's wife, Amane Uyashiki. He drove the other person away violently and even poured water on Master Tianyin when she visited them.

When he was 11 years old, Muichiro witnessed an evil spirit that broke into his home seriously injuring Ichiro. Afterwards, the furious Muichiro nailed the evil spirit to a wooden stake in the wild and destroyed it with sunlight. However, he was also seriously injured and could not walk.

When he exhausted all his strength and crawled home, the dying brother used a weak voice to intermittently express his truest feelings about his brother.

"What I know... Muichiro's Wu is infinite Wu... a 'Nothing' that can exert unlimited power to protect others."

After hearing his brother's last words, Muichiro finally understood his brother's concern and guilt for him.

Afterwards, Muichiro lost all his memory due to serious injuries, and thus became almost emotionless, and was as venomous and cold as Ichiro.

Chapter 118: Mechanical Doll·Yuan 10 Type! (3/4)

After Muichiro was rescued and returned to Ubuyashiki's home, the Lord asked him to work hard to survive and not miss any opportunity to retrieve his memory.

Afterwards, Muichiro joined the Demon Slayer Corps and became a pillar in just two months.

The excellence of his talent is astonishing.

————————————————————————

While Xia Qing followed Muichiro, Tanjiro and others and a child named Kotetsu also followed.

"Xiao Tie, what is that key used for?"

Tanjiro asked the masked child.

"It's from a machine doll."

"Huh? Machine doll?"

Tanjiro was stunned.

"Yes, it was made by my ancestor. It can perform one hundred and eight movements. Because it has power that exceeds that of humans, it was used for combat training."

Tanjiro suddenly understood after hearing this answer.

"Oh, that's right, he did it for training..."

"Yes...but that mechanism doll is very old now and is almost broken."

While they were discussing in low voices, the sound of fighting suddenly came from the woods ahead.

"Whoa, what's wrong!?"

It was the crisp, sonorous sound of the blades intersecting.

After following Xia Qing's footsteps to the open space where the battle took place, Tanjiro and others made a sound of surprise.

"It's amazing...it looks just like a human!"

"You can still see parts on your face, it's so scary..."

"That is……"

Xiaotie, who was wearing a fire man mask on his face, answered at this moment.

"That's the machine doll made by our ancestors for combat use - the "Yuan 10 Type"!"

"But... why are there six hands..."

Zenitsu asked doubtfully.

Because Muichiro Tokitou was already fighting with the mechanical doll, no one rushed to stop him.

"Hands? My father said that the prototype of the doll was an actual swordsman. Without six hands, it is impossible to reproduce the swordsman's movements."

Tanjiro carefully observed the six-armed doll, and suddenly noticed that the earrings worn by the doll were exactly the same as his own.

"Um...Xiaotie, do you know who that swordsman is...?"

Tanjiro asked the boy quickly.

After hearing this question, Xiaotie waved his hands in shame.

"Sorry, I don't know very well...that was during the Warring States Period..."

"War, the Warring States Period!? How could it be...more than three hundred years ago? The doll is still not broken after all this time?"

"Well, the technology used is so high that we can't even match it now. If it breaks...it can't be repaired. My father passed away early. If you have any brothers, I should inherit his work, but I don't have the skills to wield a sword or make dolls." Talent..."

Tanjiro immediately understood the reason why Kotetsu was unwilling to hand over the key to Muichiro despite all his life.

"That's why it's so... like this, like this..."

"Speaking of which..."

Zenitsu stared at Muichiro's figure intently.
