Chapter 127 The Daily Life of Ghosts (4)
[The Inspirational Swordsman - Kokushibo]
When Kokushibo was young, he became the head of the family and always presented a calm and experienced image to the outside world, which over time became part of his personality.
They are rigid and conservative, and adherence to etiquette is ingrained in their very being.
After becoming a demon, the passage of time gradually became insignificant, and Kokushibo trained day after day for five hundred years, all in order to catch up with Yoriichi Tsugikuni.
For the past five hundred years, compared to the extremely busy Shuuga and Jinko (Muzan is a complete slacker), Kokushibo has been relatively leisurely, doing only one thing: getting stronger and stronger.
Actively learning cellular respiration is like finding someone to fight.
To avoid random fights, Shugo simply gave Kokushibo a position: high-end sparring partner, which is surprisingly effective against the Demon Slayer Corps.
It not only gave Kokushibo a chance to fight, but also improved the Oni's strength and level, and also consumed the Oni's energy and money.
For ghosts, worldly currency has little appeal; rare blood is the true hard currency.
For Kokushibo, this position was better than nothing, though occasionally he could find gold in the sand, like with Doma or Akaza.
These guys are quite strong, and Akaza even has the potential to touch the Transparent World.
It's a pity that he was so attached to his children that he abandoned his wife and children, Kokushibo commented.
However, Kokushibo recently had other things to do: training his offspring—the Tokito brothers.
Kokushibo stared at the two wailing babies and fell into deep thought.
He didn't quite understand how to determine that the older brother was less talented than the younger brother.
Could it be that the state of being in harmony with nature also has the ability to judge aptitude?
Mu Qiang's Kokushibo accepted this setting in an instant.
Kokushibo's dojo became lively again after a long time, because taking care of human babies was just too troublesome.
Hei Shibo, who indulged in the pleasures of his grandchildren, was tormented to the point of going bald by his own descendants.
"Wow——"
One baby cried out, and another would follow, the cries rising and falling in waves.
Kokushibo approached and looked at the two children.
With six large eyes and Kokushibo's terrifying aura, Ichiro and Muichiro cried even more bitterly, their tears soaking the cradle. Their cries were enough to break anyone's heart.
Kokushibo, who hadn't done anything: ...
Kokushibo didn't understand.
Why do human babies cry so much?
Kokushibo tried hard to recall if his children had cried this much when he was a human.
It seems not.
The unremarkable new dad, Kokushibo, remembered that he didn't see his child often. Babies sleep a lot, and he was very busy. When he went to see the baby, he always saw the sleeping baby, which made his heart soften.
Sleeping babies are little angels, while awake babies are little devils. This period of extremely noisy living deepened Kokushibo's understanding of this.
The Tokito brothers were crying so hard they were hiccuping.
Yuichiro was slightly older than Muichiro, by only a little over a year.
One-year-old Yuichiro stared fearfully at the six-eyed monster before him.
Yuichiro: Mom! A monster is trying to eat me!
Helpless Kokushibo: Let's find someone to take care of him!
Changing diapers and feeding are so un-samurai-like!
After staring at Ichiro for a long time, Kokushibo took out a small wooden sword from his pocket and put it in Ichiro's hand.
Training swordsmen starts from infancy.
Since his talent is no longer as good as his younger brother's, he must work even harder, just like him, Kokushibo thought to himself.
Tokito Yuichiro held a small wooden sword, looking silly and with bubbles coming out of his nose, completely unlike his future sharp-tongued and indifferent self.
[Ren Guang, Chief Steward of Livestock]
Ren Guang has always been busy, but lately he has become even busier because his son has become obsessed with dating and his efficiency in handling official business has decreased.
Previously, at least there were occasional holidays, and Shugo, being considerate of Jinguang, would also take on Jinguang's part of the work.
Shugo initially thought that once the entire framework was established, the power would operate automatically, and he wouldn't need to do everything himself like he did at the beginning.
But Ren Guang was different; his overly responsible personality made him want to hold on tightly.
Employees who are laid-back and don't like to think critically like this kind of boss, while employees who want to get promoted and climb the corporate ladder won't like this boss who bosses them around.
Shugo advised Jinko, "Just hand it over to well-trained subordinates, there's no need to keep an eye on it all the time!"
"Even if someone embezzles funds or fails to perform their duties effectively, regular monitoring and punishment will suffice."
Ren Guang: "No! Losses that can be avoided should of course be avoided!"
Ren Guang, who was used to being stingy, was not happy to suffer any losses, especially since it was a loss that could be avoided with just a little effort.
Ren Guang, the first to master his Blood Demon Art, began his life of transforming into countless oxen and horses.
Ren Guang No. 1: Managing supplies in Infinite City
Ren Guang No. 2: Management Research Institute
Ren Guang No. 3: Traveling around collecting red stones
……
Ren Guang, No. 107: Running a manor in the Americas while posing as a human.
Renguang: I work! I'm happy!
Shugo is willing to call him the King of Kings!
The being that makes all ghosts flee in terror, despite being a ghost, has dark circles under its eyes that never go away, giving it a natural smoky eye effect.
Ren Guang's subordinates were the same, all with panda eyes, bowing to their superiors.
【The Wandering Swordsman - Fu Jun】
Compared to Ren Guang, the king of rolls, Fu Jun is just a typical lazy bum.
After finishing the task, I'll go out and have some fun.
The falcon, capable of transforming into various animals and freely assembling animal limbs, has become a messenger, spending its days either floating in the sky at night or digging underground during the day.
It never stopped.
However, Fushun accepted this unstable life well, which was better than Jin Guang, who had dark circles under his eyes from working, and Kokushibo, who was stubbornly guarding the dojo. He was really afraid of those two guys.
Fu Jun's daily task is to deliver intelligence, which often requires him to travel to different countries. After completing his mission, he goes to enjoy himself, eating, drinking and having fun. The first two require drugs from the research institute, which are too difficult to obtain. Since Fu Jun is often not in Infinite City, it is difficult to obtain them, so he can basically only pass on them.
Only the latter two are acceptable.
Therefore, Fu Jun often frequented places of revelry, whether it was a bustling bar, a brothel filled with ambiguous atmosphere, a casino that made people's blood boil, or a cruel and bloody underground arena, you could see him indulging in pleasure.
At this moment, Fu Jun was embracing several beautiful women with pretty faces and graceful figures on his left and right. They were either smiling coquettishly or snuggling up to Fu Jun with charming affection.
Fu Jun squinted his eyes with a satisfied expression, occasionally letting out sighs of admiration: "This kind of carefree, decadent lifestyle is what real life is all about!"
Only a fool would learn the ascetic practices of Kokushibo!
Stupid fool, you're going to die trying to learn from Ren Guang!
This is the true life of a ghost.
Fu Jun had no idea that his life would become difficult once the internet appeared.
