Shen Mi floated through the silent, tranquil universe, deep in thought about life.
He, Shen Mi, was the son of the master of Hozan, the incarnation of the Night Tribe's home planet's dragon veins, and the universe's strongest monster hunter, Umibozu. He was the younger brother of the commander of the Seventh Division of the space pirate group Harusame, and the older brother of the odd-jobs girl working in Kabukicho, Edo, on Earth... Ah, ah, he could leave that last one out for now.
How had he ended up on the verge of kicking the bucket?
Shen Mi thought about it for a very, very long time, until even his breathing was about to stop. In the end, he blamed it all on his hateful older brother.
"You're the one behind all of this, Kamui!"
At last, his struggling eyelids closed. As he lay dying, Shen Mi was still cursing that damned Kamui. If he could be reincarnated, he would beat Kamui up good.
When he opened his eyes again, he saw a pair of gentle purple eyes.
It didn't take long for Shen Mi to realize he had arrived in a new world. The person who had saved him was a frail, sickly human. Unlike that violent maniac Kamui, Shen Mi considered himself pretty kind. Of course, the main reason he didn't leave right away was that this human's family had endless bowls of white rice!
After accidentally revealing his incredible strength, Shen Mi found himself gazed at with starry eyes by the human family who had saved him. They even entrusted him with a very important task.
What? Become a Pillar of the Demon Slayer Corps? Well, as long as there's money and white rice, none of that is a problem!
Shen Mi soon became the Demon Slayer Corps' most mysterious Pillar. Within a year of receiving his Nichirin Blade, he had kicked Lower Ranks, punched Upper Ranks, made a name for himself among the demons, and forced Kibutsuji Muzan to keep his distance!
