Hearing this Lorien felt a bit confused, last time he heard about Demons was from Saigai, and since then he haven't heard of them again as he had focused all of his attention on Kenjutsu
Seeing the puzzled look on Lorien's face Sodo quickly understood that he had no idea about the subject
"Sigh...I'll say it again, I am very hesitant on whether to tell you this or not, after all, you have a good life, and staying away from such dangerous things is best for you, so if you don't want to hear about them just say it now"
After saying this Sodo paused for a second leaving time for Lorien to choose
Hearing this Lorien could easily guess what Sodo was going to say, after all, he wasn't mentally challenged, his face quickly turned serious as he attentively waited for Sodo to continue
'Demons eh, Interesting..'
He wasn't afraid of demons he just felt very curious about them, after all, he had never truly met a supernatural entity other than the one that sent him here
Seeing Lorien not refusing Sodo continued
"After what I said you could probably guess it, Yes Demons do exist"
Pausing again Sodo's eyes blurred his memory wandering to a not so distant past, probably a year ago
"Honestly I also thought they didn't exist, that until I actually met one, a year ago I was traveling away from town to a meet an old friend of mine, at the time I was in a hurry and I decided to travel at night, I wasn't afraid of robbers and such so I didn't think much of it, But..."
As he reached here his voice quaked for a moment and fear flashed in his eyes
"On my way, I met a Demon, Never in my life have I been so close to death, even with all my strength I wasn't able to kill it, I was able to hurt it again and again but I simply couldn't kill it even when I cut it's head off, it was useless, and it didn't take long for my stamina to run off"
Pausing again he had a look of gratitude on his face
"Thankfully someone wearing a black uniform with the word 'Exterminating' on the back saved me just when I was about to die, with just one slash the demon's head was cut off before it was reduced to ashes
After communicating for a bit I learned from him, that he is part of an organization called Demon Slayer Corps but no further information about the organization
If you spot this story on Amazon, know that it has been stolen. Report the violation.
And after asking about the reason for my inability to kill it, it appears that you need a Nishirin blade and to cut their heads to be able to do so or simply throwing it under the sun will do the trick, other than that it's impossible
I know this may seem like the talk of a crazy old man but....."
But even as Sodo continued to talk Lorien wasn't listening at the moment as after hearing what he said about Nishirin blades and Demon Slayer Corps his mind froze
'Nishirin Sword, Demons, Demon Slayer Corps... Did I just travel to the Demon Slayer world?!'
'But wasn't it just an Anime?! How did it become a real-world, am I just dreaming?'
Right now Lorien's mind is in a very confused state even questioning reality, weird coming from someone whose Ability is Dream and Reality Manipulation
But even then Lorien was quickly able to clear his mind and restore his focus just in time to hear Sodo finish his story
"...If I were younger I would have joined them!"
After finishing all of this it was as if a burden was taken off his chest, this is because he had always wanted to tell this to someone but sadly there was no one to talk to
"Well that's all I have to say, believe me if you will, or simply forget about it, if you were to find them, with your talent you'll be able to go further on the road of swordsmanship!"
And with this, it was the end of their short apprenticeship
Walking out of the Dojo and towards the entrance of the estate both kept silent each thinking about different things
It didn't take long for them to reach it as Sodo walked away only leaving one phrase
"This may be the last time we meet, Farewell..."
Looking at the Sodo back slowly moving away Lorien echoed back
"Farewell..."
But even until now, his mind was still focused on the fact that he's now in the Demon Slayer World, He could instantly think of many theories such as information flow, 2-dimensional sub world...etc
But without reliable data, no conclusion could be made so he soon gave up thinking about it as a smile appeared on his face
"Hahaha! Interesting! Very Interesting indeed! Where is the fun if everything is known, a little mystery gives life meaning!'
Thinking of this Lorien walked back towards the house with a happy look on his face, but what he had failed to notice right now is that in his 'Cheat's' Pannel
[Nameless World] located in [Worlds] -> [Record Coordinates], Became [Demon Slayer World], truly giving this world a title
.
Today as it was the last day in practice Lorien finished quite early, but he was currently in no mood to go and play with Saigai as he had more important things to do
Now that Lorien knew that he was in DS World, he can't relax as he usually did
Even though those Demons and even Muzan arent that strong they are still in the range where they can kill him if he were to be distracted, so he had to step up the effort
'Now I have learned and perfected all the swordsmanship Sodo taught me, now all I need to do is use my ability to directly improve, I am curious as to how far it will improve'
As he thought of this he felt a bit excited as he quickened his pace towards his room
"Oh!! I remember, I need to look for some martial arts teachers, Swordsmanship isn't enough, I need to be in contact with the target so that [Reality] can work, moreover without touching the target I cant use my ultimate ability [Dream/Reality] to erase my enemy from existence
So Martial Arts are a very good choice for me right now, I need to strengthen myself as much as possible!'
