When Tobirama carried the bewildered girl out of the laboratory, he couldn't have known that his actions would send the future galloping off like a runaway horse, down an unknown path.
Konoha could clearly see that beneath the soft glow of candlelight, her family members all had different faces, yet every pair of eyes shone with warmth.
They raised their wine glasses high
Madara: "To Konoha."
Hashirama: "To Konoha!"
Tobirama: "To Konoha."
Izuna: "To Konoha."
Mito: "To Konoha."
The girl suddenly smiled:
"To Konoha (me)!"

[Synopsis]
In my previous life, I died in the line of duty as a member of the Demon Slayer Corps. In this life, I was reborn in a world without man-eating demons.
I was part of an ordinary family, with a gentle, kind mother and a father who loved gambling but always obeyed his wife. The three of us lived a happy, simple life, because sometimes the ordinary is what matters most.
But then disaster struck. My mother died giving birth to my little brother, Megumi, and my father was so devastated that his personality changed completely.
As an adult with the memories of two lifetimes, I took on the responsibility of holding the family together, working hard to raise my brother and father.
It's all right.
I've been given another life and precious family, so I won't ask for anything more. So what if my little brother is too young to be weaned? So what if my father is depressed, drinks too much, and loves betting on horse races? I've made up my mind to protect them!
Then one day, Dad came home from a business trip. As he stepped into the entryway, I heard that shrill sound belonging to demons, coming from his waist, for the first time in ages.
Terrified, I grabbed a kitchen knife and unleashed a six-strike Thunder Breathing combo at Dad's abdomen!
"Dad, don't move! Thunder Breathing, "
Freed from the Heavenly Restriction that bound the Zenin clan, he'd once had an ordinary family and had genuinely cherished his only daughter.
His eldest daughter hadn't inherited a technique. Like all non-sorcerers, she couldn't see curses or use cursed energy.
That was fine by him.
After his wife died in an accident, his eldest daughter shouldered the entire burden of the family on her own, bearing a weight no one her age should have had to carry.
Toji had a rare moment of conscience and thought that his late wife, who had doted on their daughter, would give him an earful for it.
So he took up his old assassin's work again after a long absence, went on a few jobs, and earned some money to help support the family before finally coming home.
Toji never, ever expected this.
The moment he opened the front door, his own daughter came charging at him with a kitchen knife, lightning crackling around her!
She aimed straight at the cursed spirit Kuchisake, wrapped around his waist.
"Dad, don't move! Thunder Breathing, First Form, "
Toji, who'd nearly thought his daughter was going to chop her own dad: ???
Sweetie, aren't you an ordinary person who can't even see cursed spirits?!
Reader's guide:
1. I'm doing my best to follow the original timeline. The heroine was born seven years before Megumi. Before Toji married into the Fushiguro family (Tsumiki's family), both she and Megumi had the surname Zenin.
2. In her previous life, the heroine was Zenitsu's junior disciple and a Thunder Breathing swordswoman. She has the Demon Slayer Mark and Transparent World as cheat abilities, making her a Schrödinger's top-tier fighter.
3. The heroine has no cursed energy and can't see cursed spirits, making her a non-sorcerer. However, like Zenitsu, her hearing is exceptionally sharp, so she can hear the sounds of cursed spirits.
4. This is a heartwarming child-rearing story (or rather, father-rearing), with an attempt at an everyday-life style. It's probably a Toji redemption story.
Theme: Stand alongside friends, strive and work hard, and usher in a new era of peace.
