【The Screen Goes Black (Encounter BGM Plays)】
【The screen brightens, and a “wild” Wakuraba appears】
【I choose you, golden retriever】
【(With a flash of light, the puppy jumps out of the Poké Ball)】

【Critical Hit (Red Text)】
【Wakuraba is incapacitated, gaining experience points】
【Victory in battle (Cheerful BGM plays)】
Early bird caught the worm.
Zenitsu acted decisively and directly slashed.
“Boom!”
In the blink of an eye, the demon perished!
Jon: ???
What a perfect timing!
You’re nowhere to be found this whole time and now you stole a kill?
Finally getting a chance to perform, Zenitsu grinned foolishly as he approached Jon, proudly saying, “Big brother, I came at the right time, didn’t I?”
Upon hearing this, Jon’s expression stiffened.
But after thinking about it.
Forget it, just let this golden retriever be happy.
He nodded.
“Yes, you came just in time.”
“I knew it!” Zenitsu was extremely excited. “I waited up there for so long and didn’t see you guys coming back. After those maids ran away, I just wandered around and found many humans imprisoned in the cellar.”
Zenitsu proudly stroked his nose.
“I let them all out.”
“Well done.”
Jon casually ruffled Zenitsu’s hair to encourage him.
After a pause, he suddenly remembered something and said, “Come, let’s go meet Tanjiro and the others. They are injured.”
“Huh?”
Zenitsu suddenly couldn’t laugh.
Ten days later.
Ubuyashiki Residence, backyard.
At noon, it’s time for lunch.
“Hey hey hahaha, chicken soup is here!”
Zenitsu laughed as he brought a steaming pot.
Placing the pot on the table, he looked at everyone and asked in confusion, “The food is ready, why aren’t you guys eating?”
“Mind your own business!” The bandaged Genya replied annoyedly.
Inosuke turned his head away, “Hmph!”
“Zenitsu, Genya and the others are still mad.”
Tanjiro scratched his forehead helplessly.
“Didn’t the master give you a ‘special reward’ This morning?”
“Tanjiro, why are you acting just like them!”
As soon as special reward is mentioned, Zenitsu’s expression became unsightly.
To be honest, a new set of heavy equipment is also called a ‘special reward’? It’s so heavy that he might die from that! “Zenitsu, don’t say that.” Tanjiro blinked, “This is the master’s way to acknowledge your strength.”
“Recognition my ass!”
Zenitsu irritably grabbed his hair.
Tanjiro suddenly paused, a smiling face flashed through his mind, and murmured, “I wonder how Nezuko is doing. Is she awake?”
“What did you say?” Zenitsu asked.
“Nothing, nothing.”
Tanjiro waved his hand repeatedly.
At this moment, Inosuke suddenly interjected, “Golden hair, I want to challenge you!”
“Don’t, don’t, Inosuke, you’re my good brother.”
Zenitsu was taken aback, shaking his head like a tambourine, “There’s no need to fight, if you really like that heavy set, I’ll give it to you!”
Genya sneered coldly, “You’re quite generous. If it weren’t for my carelessness, I would definitely win.”
The prize didn’t matter at this point.
The problem is Genya’s pride wouldn’t allow him to be bested by others!
Inosuke turned his head, “You would win?”
Without waiting for the other party to respond, he shouted, “My sword was closer than yours at that time!”
“Hehe, if you’re not convinced, let’s fight.”
“That suits me just fine!”
“Inosuke, go for it! Kirby is too arrogant. Teach him a good lesson for me!”
“Don’t call me with that name!”
“When big brother calls you, aren’t you quite enthusiastic in response?”
“…”
“Everyone, calm down.”
“Tanjiro, this matter has nothing to do with you.”
“Yes, yes, just stay there and watch.”
“Zenitsu, you should learn more from master.”
In the corner, Kanao watched quietly as the boys bickered back and forth while taking small sips of tea.
Peaceful and serene, the years pass by.
On the other side.
“Are you leaving?”
There was not much change to Kagaya Ubuyashiki. He still seemed as if he was dying.
Jon gently placed his hand on the shoulder of the leader of the Demon Slayer Corps.
Ripples enveloped Kagaya’s body.
“You always shine so brightly.” Kagaya Ubuyashiki’s face had a hint of color, “You are very kind.”
“It’s just a token of my gratitude.”
Jon’s tone was calm.
After a pause, he continued, “Yes, I’m leaving.”
Every journey had an end.
This one was no exception.
After exterminating Wakuraba, Jon’s Legendary Level skyrocketed to level 3.
However, because he was worried about Inosuke and Genya, he stayed behind for a while.
As a result, these two guys recovered like calves, causing trouble all over the place in just two or three days.
After a moment of contemplation, Kagaya Ubuyashiki asked, “Will you come back?”
“Of course.”
Jon looked towards the backyard.
“After all, my disciples are here.”
“That’s good then.” Kagaya Ubuyashiki smiled, “As long as the Demon Slayer Corps exists, you will always have a place.”
The conversation shifted.
“Speaking of your disciples.”
“Tsuguko.” Jon corrected, “With their little skills, they haven’t even reached the tip of Ripple Breathing.”
“Alright, Tsuguko. Don’t you want to say goodbye to your Tsuguko?” Kagaya Ubuyashiki asked.
“No need.”
Jon didn’t even think about it.
“It’s not like I won’t see them again. It just adds unnecessary trouble.”
“You’re carefree, far beyond me.” Kagaya Ubuyashiki covered her mouth and chuckled lightly.
Jon cleared his throat, “I left some toys and snacks for them, remember to pass them on for me. Also, in my room, there are a few letters for them.”
Kagaya Ubuyashiki fell silent.
After a moment, he teased, “You say you don’t care, but it seems like you’ve grown attached to them.”
“Well, we did spend more than a month together.”
Jon admitted.
“Anyway, next time I come back, I’ll give you and the Demon Slayer Corps a surprise.”
Weapon against Demon:
Ripple Breathing (×)
UV Flashlight (√)
If he encountered Kibutsuji Muzan, Jon must teach him a lesson. Show him what it means that times have changed.
“Since that’s the case, I’ll wait patiently for your surprise.” Kagaya Ubuyashiki nodded lightly.
The conversation ended, and Jon waved goodbye.
“The green hills will remain, and the green waters will flow long. We’ll meet again.”
