Demon Slayer: Path of the Azure Flames

It is the Taisho era in Japan. Legend has it that man-eating demons emerge after sunset.

The story of the boy Akasaka Rin begins on a night swallowed by blood and flames. His path and the legendary Demon Slayer Corps should have been parallel lines that never crossed. He was just an ordinary farm boy. His greatest wish was for a better harvest, so his frail mother could live a little more comfortably.

But fate's wheels mercilessly rolled over him. When the creature that had existed only in horror stories, a demon, appeared before him, and the warm flesh and blood of his loved ones splattered across his face, his ordinary life came to an abrupt end.

Would he die in silence like an ant, becoming a demon's next meal? Or would he grip the handle of a sword with no blade and unleash a desperate cry to survive?

This book records Rin's choice and the path woven from countless choices. It is a grueling road of cultivation, strewn with thorns and soaked in blood and sweat; a road of battle that demands he keep swinging his sword, keep losing, and keep growing. From the moment he grips a rough wooden sword to the final confrontation with the source of darkness, every step along this “Azure Flame Path” will be yours to choose for him.

So, are you ready? Breathe. Focus. Your adventure begins now.
