Demon Slayer: I will play the ancestor of the Flame Pillar

Chapter 8



The night market at the end of the Meiji era was not as prosperous as in later times, but it was still very lively.

The streets of the city were bustling with people, and colorful flags were erected at the door of the shops to attract people.

There were various slogans written on them, and some shops even hung signs saying they were powered on, which seemed very novel in this era.

Lin Heng had never been to Japan in his previous life, and the Japanese style seemed very novel to him.

He walked and stopped along the way, like an ignorant primitive man.

"Coffee, coffee. The high-quality stuff from the West..."

"Is there coffee now? It's too bitter and I can't get used to it. Let's go." Lin Heng didn't even look back.

"Yakitori, delicious yakitori..."

"Hey, what's so good about grilled chicken, and it's so expensive, let's go." Lin Heng didn't even turn his head.

"Bubble bath, with beautiful girls accompanying you throughout the whole process~"

"Hey, is there such a thing now? It seems that Japanese people are really open."

Lin Heng was tired and just wanted to take a break here, so he leaned against the door and rested for a while.

As a result, not only did he not see any beautiful girls, but he was driven away by the auntie who was dressed up at the door.

"So stingy, you won't even let me look."

Lin Heng spread his hands and complained helplessly, this body was too small in appearance, it was difficult to get in.

Of course, he was not very eager to take a look, but the righteousness of his previous life kept urging him to go in and criticize.

[A strange guy who hides his head and shows his tail, walking and stopping along the way, looking around. Are you an ancient person who has never seen the world? The true value rises slightly]

"Hmm? Am I too conspicuous in this description?"

The cloaked weirdo·Lin·Sword Ronin·Heng scratched his head.

However, Lin Heng has never been a self-consuming person. He immediately pointed the problem to the bird on his shoulder.

It's all its fault.

"So, although you flew away without looking back, you still wanted to eat ham sausage in the end, so you came to me again?"

"Coo, coo."

The owl turned its head directly.

"Okay, okay, since you love to coo so much, then I'll call you coo."

Lin Heng said with a smile this time, anyway, it couldn't refute it.

"Coo, coo."

Coo rolled his eyes, simply ignored Lin Heng who was talking to himself, and looked around at the human city.

"Oh no, I remember that ham sausage only became popular in the 1940s, and it's only 1911 now."

Lin Heng followed its gaze and turned around, but didn't find the familiar stall. He patted his head and suddenly remembered.

"Gu, Gugu."

This time Gugu's reaction was obviously bigger, and he pecked Lin Heng lightly.

"Sure enough, you understand, don't worry, don't worry, let's go eat something else delicious."

Lin Heng touched Gugu's head and closed his eyes.

"Super perception."

The next moment, Lin Heng opened his eyes, and the light in his pupils was dim.

This time, super perception did not abandon vision to an extreme extent, but an all-round improvement of the five senses.

Lin Heng sniffed the various smells in the air with his nose, and caught the most fragrant one.

Patting the bird on his shoulder, Lin Heng followed the smell to a small stall.

"This is it, let me see, the signature fried pork chops."

Lin Heng looked at the sign, and his saliva was about to flow out.

Who doesn't love golden and crispy fried pork chops?

Just as he was about to lift the curtain and walk in, a girl's shouting suddenly came from behind.

"Make way, make way, if you're a little later, the pork chop uncle will run away!"

"Huh?"

Lin Heng paused and looked back.

"Ah, it's too late, make way, I can't stop!"

The girl running behind obviously didn't expect Lin Heng to stop at this time, and just bumped into him.

The huge impact force that was inconsistent with the petite figure of a woman came, and Lin Heng's upper body muscles bulged, standing still.

"Eh?"

The girl was about to apologize for knocking the other person away, but she didn't realize that she was the one who was bounced away. She was stunned and looked up at Lin Heng while sitting on the ground.

Taking this opportunity, Lin Heng carefully looked at this uninvited guest.

The girl in front of me has a pair of big light green eyes, rosy cheeks, a mole under each eye, and three long cherry pink braids, while the ends of her hair are fresh grass green.

The most eye-catching thing is that the girl has a pair of heavy principles at such a young age, and she is still indomitable in overcoming gravity and standing up!

Yes, it was Gan who appeared at the pork chop stall at this time

Mitsuri Rokudera, one of the nine future pillars of the Demon Slayer Corps, the Love Pillar.

"Great, I made it!"

After confirming that the man in the cloak in front of her was fine, Mitsuri stood up and happily went into the house to order food.

"Uncle, give me 20 servings of fried pork cutlets first."

The manager and the waiter were like they were facing a great enemy from the moment Mitsuri came in, holding the kitchen utensils tightly with a gloomy face.

The girl's words seemed like a signal to start a war. The two looked at each other, and the manager spoke solemnly.

"Jiro-kun, the girl came in, and it's too late to close the door. I'll leave everything to you next."

The waiter nodded with tears in his eyes: "Don't worry, manager, we can do it."

"Yes, we must satisfy all customers. Isn't that what a chef does?"

The manager smiled freely and heroically.

"Remember, Jiro-kun, the kitchen is a battlefield, kitchen utensils are weapons, and chefs are soldiers!"

"Cooking is war!"

After saying that, the store manager turned around and walked towards the kitchen, with a sense of tragedy that a warrior would never return.

Lin Heng looked at the two people who were busy jumping up and down, and couldn't help but sigh.

How much can this girl eat? She left such a big psychological shadow on the store, but compared to eating, he would not admit defeat.

So Lin Heng sat on the chair and raised his hand calmly: "Boss, pork chops, twenty servings."

"Is he also a big eater? He looks so small and thin."

Kanroji Mitsuri looked at Lin Heng with some curiosity.

"But he didn't even shake when I bumped into him. He must be very strong."

Lin Heng thought while waiting for the fried pork chops.

Mitsuri should not have joined the Demon Slayer Corps yet. This is a good opportunity to give her a little shock of the Purgatory family first.

Lin Heng took off his cloak, revealing his long hair as bright as flames, and his red-gold pupils swept around with majesty.

The diners who were discussing enthusiastically around him could not help but fall silent for a moment.

"Why does he look younger than me? His hair is golden red, and so are his eyes. They are very special."

Because of her unique hair color, Mitsuri, who has been the focus of attention since she was a child, is very sensitive to these places.

Obviously, Lin Heng's unusual appearance attracted her attention.

Haha, the little Ganlu Temple, easily controlled.

Lin Heng was about to continue the operation, but the waiter's voice interrupted his combo.

"Guests, the pork chops are here, please enjoy."

Two large piles of plates were placed on the table.

"I'm starting!"

Stopping all thoughts, the two started eating at the same time. The pork chops disappeared at a speed visible to the naked eye, and the plates piled up quickly.

"Not good."

The store manager who had just come out to appreciate the results of the battle changed his face, turned around and ran back to the kitchen.

"Jiro-kun, hurry up and bring the ingredients."

"More."

"More."

The two shouts overlapped, Lin Heng and Mitsuri looked at each other and came to the conclusion at the same time.

"In terms of eating alone, the other party is a strong rival."

…………

The store manager and the waiter lay on the kitchen floor, snoring sweetly after being tired.

"The 56th plate, my stomach has grown bigger, and I can't eat anything."

Mitsuri looked at Lin Heng with satisfaction while holding her bulging stomach.

"You are amazing, this is the first time I have seen someone eat more than me!"

Lin Heng took the time to change plates while eating and taught distractedly.

"Pay attention to using breathing to quickly decompose the food and extract the nutrients, so that you can eat more and faster."

Mitsuri said a little frustrated.

"But what's the use of being able to eat?"

"Everyone dislikes me, so no one likes a woman like me who can eat and has strange strength. It's useless."

Lin Heng shook his head and comforted.

"No, this power is your unique talent, you should be proud of it."

Mitsuri's face was slightly red, and she looked at Lin Heng with expectation.

"I want to find a place that can recognize me, and I want to find a husband who is stronger than me."

"Then join the Demon Slayer Corps. With your strength, you can definitely do it, provided that you can find it."

Too much is as bad as too little, Lin Heng knows this well.

After putting down the meal money, he stood up and lifted the curtain to leave.

"Demon Slayer Corps? What is it?"

The girl was a little confused. She had never heard of it, but it seemed very powerful.

Looking at Lin Heng who was about to leave, Kanroji Mitsuri, whose brain was empty, suddenly came back to her senses and shouted anxiously.

"I don't know your name yet?"

"Hiroshiro, my name is Rengoku Hiroshiro."

The boy's faint echo and the sound of footsteps gradually fading away came from outside the curtain.

"We will meet again, Miss Kanroji Mitsuri."

Huh?

I just told him my name.

Words?

Touching her round belly, Mitsuri collapsed on the chair with a big question mark on her head.
