Simultaneous transmigration, but with low martial arts and low magic.

Chapter 13 Tokito Yuichiro and Tokito Muichiro

The sun is setting in the west, as the sunlight disappears.

After a full day of training, the orphans, having been given a rest, collapsed to the ground, panting heavily.

"Brother, have some hot water."

The future Mist Pillar, Tokito Muichiro, ran over and handed a cup of hot water to his older brother, Yuichiro.

"Hmph, you don't need to pour me hot water. Just do your job well."

Ichiro took the hot water his younger brother handed him and drank it, still spouting sarcastic remarks.

Seeing this, Muichiro didn't take it seriously and then picked up the hot water and handed it to his other companions.

At the same time, he was also glancing at Lord Kaigaku, who was coldly instructing a young child on the correct way to wield a sword.

A few days ago, Lord Kaigaku approached them, saying that a nobleman from Saitama Prefecture wanted to recruit retainers.

They were then invited to join the samurai training program, during which the nobleman would not only provide them with food and clothing, but also give them extra money.

If one can successfully pass the test, one can officially become a retainer of that nobleman.

In the future, they will have everything: status, money, land, houses, and even women.

Upon hearing this news, Muichiro's eyes immediately lit up.

He immediately expressed his desire to sign up for the samurai training program, wanting to become that nobleman's samurai and change the current predicament faced by the Tokito family.

However, at this moment, Yuichiro, the future Mist Hashira's older brother, spoke up with strong opposition.

"Muichiro is the 'Mu' in 'incompetent,' so I can handle the special training."

"Muichiro, all you need to do is stay at home and carry on the Tokito family's bloodline."

With that, Tokito Ichiro took over the position of the person undergoing special training.

At his brother's behest, Muichiro Tokito did not join the special training team, but instead took charge of the team's logistics and did odd jobs.

Suddenly, Muichiro, who was looking at the Kaigaku brothers, saw that Kaigaku's expression changed abruptly.

Because a tall, robust man dressed in fine clothes was slowly walking towards them from a distance.

Upon seeing this, Muichiro quickly tugged at his brother's sleeve, indicating that an important person had arrived.

"grown ups."

Kaigaku first knelt on one knee and performed a samurai salute, then turned around and angrily rebuked:

"What are you doing? Hurry up and kneel down to greet me!"

This is the person you will swear allegiance to in the future, Lord Li Ke.

Upon hearing this, all the young and old radish-heads present knelt down to greet him.

"Who are they?"

Li Ke immediately spotted Tokito Muichiro and Tokito Yuichiro, who stood out prominently in the crowd.

"My lord, they are the brothers Muichiro and Ichiro."

They were originally mountain dwellers from the Keishinzan area of ​​Minamitama District, Tokyo.

My mother died of pneumonia a year ago, and my father also fell off a cliff and died while collecting herbs. In the end, both of them became orphans.

So I recruited them into the special training team.

Upon hearing Kaiyue's explanation, Li Ke's eyes lit up.

Everything makes sense now. At this time, Ichiro was indeed still alive and making a living by chopping wood with his younger brother, Muichiro.

I never expected Kaigaku to be so helpful, managing to bring the future Mist Hashira, Muichiro Tokito, here.

He was worried about how to continue learning the Demon Slayer Corps' four basic breathing techniques—water, fire, wind, and rock—after mastering the Thunder Breathing Technique.

Unexpectedly, Muichiro Tokito, who had the highest talent in the original work and created the Breathing of Mist in just two months to become the Mist Pillar, ended up with him.

This really solved the problem of how he infiltrated the Demon Slayer Corps and learned the remaining four basic breathing techniques.

"Good job, Kaigaku. I'm very satisfied with your performance this time."

"It is my greatest honor to serve you, sir."

As he knelt on one knee, Kaiyue spoke in a deep voice, appearing like a loyal minister, leaving no room for criticism.

To be honest, if Li Ke hadn't known Kai Yue's ungrateful nature, he would have been able to sense the guy's emotional state more constantly.

They would probably really think that Kaigaku has completely submitted to them.

However, Li Ke, who knew Kai Yue's true nature, was always wary of him and did not really believe that he would be truly loyal to him.

However, it is true that Kaigaku will be extremely obedient until he finds a way to break the control of the flesh bud.

After all, once Li Ke demonstrated his ability to remotely control his body and issue commands to him, he knew that running away was futile.

Therefore, at this time, Kaigaku was indeed extremely honest, and even pretended to be a loyal subject.

This allowed Li Ke to lower his guard and prepare for the potential backlash.

"Keep it up, I believe you will become powerful warriors."

Upon hearing Li Ke's words, Ichiro, who was kneeling on the ground, immediately became anxious.

"My lord, my younger brother Muichiro is an incompetent fellow. Leave the matter of him becoming your samurai to me."

Why did Ichiro steal his younger brother's registration spot and force him to not participate in the samurai training?

He was always sarcastic and mean-spirited, constantly belittling Muichiro.

The real reason was that she didn't want her younger brother to become a samurai and live a life of swords and shadows.

After all, swords have no eyes; once you start living a life of constant danger, you're either killing the enemy or being killed by them.

Few who become samurai can die peacefully, and he was worried that his younger brother would be killed by the enemy one day.

Only then did he forcefully suppress his younger brother, preventing him from participating in the special training, and instead took his place himself.

After giving Ichiro a deep look, Li Ke smiled and said:

"I can see that your younger brother is more talented than you."

"Impossible! I'm the older brother, my talent must be greater!"

"Muichiro's name means 'incompetent,' and his talent couldn't possibly be greater than mine. I request that you rescind the order to send my younger brother to special training."

As he spoke, Ichiro, kneeling on one knee, swore:

"I will definitely be the first to pass the special training test and become the strongest warrior under your command. Please witness this, sir."

Upon hearing Ichiro's words, Muichiro lowered his head.

He also wanted to participate in the special training; he also wanted to protect his brother, rather than be protected by his brother.

But his older brother had always opposed his participation in the special training.

Let him focus on his logistical work, and when he grows up, he should honestly marry and have children to carry on the Shi Tou family line.

But this is not what he wanted. He also wanted to protect his brother and draw his sword for his brother's sake!

Thinking of this, Muichiro raised his head.

"Sir, I want to participate in the special training!"

"Muichiro, what are you doing?"

"You're Muichiro, the 'Mu' of incompetence! How dare you participate in special training?!"

As Yuichiro grew anxious, his words became increasingly sharp and sarcastic.

"I also want to protect my brother."

Upon hearing Muichiro's words, Yuichiro fell silent, his hand gripping the wooden sword trembling slightly.

"You're such an idiot, a moron, a bastard!"

"I'm the older brother, it's enough that I protect you, I'm the older brother..."

Tears streamed down his face, and Muichiro stepped forward and hugged his brother who was silently weeping.

The estrangement between brothers after their parents' death vanished completely at this moment.

Those present were deeply moved by the brothers' sincere affection.

"Good, since that's the case, then let's work together to become stronger and protect each other."

Li Ke made the final decision.

"Yes, sir!"

"Yes, sir!"
