"You're back… That's great! It's good that you're back." Sakonji Urokodaki murmured.
Ryuji and Tanjiro were able to return together. The tragedy of Sabito hadn't happened to Ryuji. The knot in Sakonji Urokodaki's heart was finally untied.
Of all Sakonji Urokodaki's disciples, besides Giyu Tomioka, Ryuji and Tanjiro were the second and third people to survive the selection.
Because almost all his disciples hadn't survived the selection, Sakonji Urokodaki felt that it was his fault for not teaching them well. So, he had been living with guilt.
Now, Ryuji and Tanjiro's return had become the key to unlocking Sakonji Urokodaki's shackles.
After Tanjiro vented his pent-up emotions, Ryuji and Tanjiro took a bath and changed into clean clothes.
Sakonji Urokodaki prepared dinner for the two of them, still Tanjiro's favorite hotpot with extra ingredients.
As for Nezuko, she was quiet and stayed aside like a few-month-old baby.
During dinner, Sakonji Urokodaki asked Ryuji and Tanjiro about what had happened on Mount Fujikasane.
Tanjiro looked at Ryuji. Ryuji nodded at him, handing the right to speak to Tanjiro. He quietly enjoyed the delicious food.
Knowing Ryuji's intention, Tanjiro told Sakonji Urokodaki about Ryuji's actions on Mount Fujikasane.
Hearing this, Sakonji Urokodaki looked at Ryuji with a serious expression. He was silent for a long time before angrily questioning Ryuji, "Ryuji, have you forgotten what I told you?"
Feeling Sakonji Urokodaki's anger, Ryuji stopped what he was doing and looked directly at him. He said, "Master, I haven't forgotten what you said. It's just that I'm not him, so I'll never die in the selection. You can't forget that I promised you that I would live longer than you. I'm still waiting to hold my great-grandchild! When that time comes, I will definitely bring my son, grandson, and great-grandson to sweep your grave and pay my respects."
Hearing Ryuji's words, Sakonji Urokodaki wanted to scold him but couldn't bear to. Ryuji was not only his most talented disciple but also the one who could talk the most.
It was because of this that Sakonji Urokodaki found Ryuji very likable.
Tanjiro was also amused by Ryuji's words and couldn't help but steal a laugh. As for Tanjiro, he didn't think as far ahead as Ryuji.
However, seeing that Ryuji had said this, Tanjiro, also as Sakonji Urokodaki's disciple, chimed in, "Master, I will also bring my son, grandson, and great-grandson and sweep your grave with Senior Ryuji."
Sakonji Urokodaki, with a joy that couldn't be concealed, couldn't help but laugh and say, "You two little brats, you're just talking nonsense!"
"Old man, I met a {demon} on Mount Fujikasane who knew you. The {demon} seemed to have a deep grudge against you. I think the senior brothers and sisters who didn't come back before were killed by this {demon}. It seems to identify people through the disaster-averting masks you gave us." Ryuji mentioned the {Hand Demon} to Sakonji Urokodaki at this time.
"Hmm, that {demon} was also a deformed {demon}. It was abnormally large and covered in arms. Master, my Nichirin sword broke when I slashed its neck." Tanjiro also told Sakonji Urokodaki with a lingering fear.
Hearing this, Sakonji Urokodaki was also a little surprised and astonished. A deformed {demon} knew him?
