This story is temporarily on hiatus, but I don't plan to abandon it. When I reached the part of the plot I wanted to write, I suddenly realized that my current writing skills aren't good enough to do it justice, so I've started a new story to practice. Thank you all for waiting, and I'm truly sorry.
At the age of seventy, Yoriichi Tsugikuni died when his allotted lifespan ran out, only to have his body cut in half by his older brother after death.
But he saw Kokushibo pick up the flute that had been cut in two and gather his remains. He knew his brother was still the brother he had once known.
He felt pity for his brother.
After death, he became a spirit and followed his brother, witnessing his entire life. He also understood that his own inability to express himself, along with his brother's view of him as too exalted, had plunged his brother into suffering.
After his brother died, Yoriichi saw a spirit guide come to take him away. He tried to follow, but at the moment he stepped into the underworld, he remembered the suffering his brother had endured because of him.
He hesitated.
But when he tried to go after his brother again, the gates of the underworld had already been sealed.
And before he knew it, he had taken on a physical form.
He picked up a wooden sword and set off into the distance.
Alone in a mountain forest, he carved a doll with his own face and dressed it in a white burial robe. Wearing mourning clothes, he held a funeral for his brother by himself.
Afterward, he lived in the mountains and rarely went out, except to buy food. He devoted himself entirely to guarding his brother's grave.
But then the unexpected happened.
A swordsman from the Demon Slayer Corps passed through while hunting demons, but was no match for one and could only flee deeper into the mountains.
Yoriichi saved the swordsman, only to realize that what he had cut down was a demon, even though Muzan Kibutsuji was already dead.
Yoriichi realized there was something he had overlooked.
As it happened, the swordsman told him his name was Inoue Masakazu and also told him the name of the Demon Slayer Corps' current head.
He realized that he had returned to more than four hundred years earlier, to a time when his brother was still Michikatsu Tsugikuni.
Theme: Ideals are worth pursuing for an entire lifetime
This article is finally open. It is the first time I have seen the source of the tragedy of the twins explained from the stories of their parents. Sure enough, the tragedy of childhood will be passed down from generation to generation to some extent.
Such a suffocating environment, so sad
No, they are brothers
Among twins, the one born first is usually the one conceived later.
Please update it a lot, it's very well written!!
I hadn't noticed until I realized this article had been updated!!!!
Wow, Da Da is back! Are you feeling well? If it's not good, don't force it.
Shed tears of sadness
It may be updated a few days later. Although it is written, it cannot be repaired. Because the stye on the eye turned into a secondary viral infection, which may lead to blindness if not treated properly, I have been taking injections for the past few days. My eyes hurt terribly during the graduation exam. Fortunately, I passed the exam and did not need to retake the exam with injuries. Wish me luck.
Yes, Jinjiang's review was too slow. The article was locked for several hours. I wanted to delete the account and repost it. I wanted to delete the post when I got up in the morning, but I didn't expect it to be posted.
